Michigan And UConn Move On To The Finals

So Monday night is set: UConn and Michigan will meet in the finals. This is a very interesting match for several reasons. First and foremost, we’ll see two excellent teams.

Marcus Rashford and Barcelona show a blueprint for winning without Raphinha

Barcelona sure look like they’ve learned a lot since the devasting loss the last time they visited the Metropolitano. They didn’t blow away Atlético Madrid on Saturday, but they managed their way through a chippy affair that could have turned sideways. Just the way Diego Simeone likes it. Atleti had their chances.

The Yankees can make it late early in April

Yes, it’s true that you can’t win a division in April. In the season’s first week and a bit, though, the Yankees have done their very best.

Browns starting QB? No one knows, not even Todd Monken

Walk with me on this Cleveland Browns quarterback analogy. It’s 7 PM. You just got home from a long day at work. To say this day at work was more stressful than the previous day is an understatement. Once you clock out, the main focus you have is getting home. Once you get home, you […]
