Search ArticlesDraymond Green, Michigan and the Clippers show why winning is no longer a free pass
For decades, sports operated on an unofficial bargain: if you helped the team win, there was a lot of management that was willing to forgive. Star players got longer leashes. Successful coaches became nearly untouchable. Programs with championship banners could dismiss uncomfortable questions as distractions. That bargain is starting to look increasingly expensive.
Riley Greene smacks two HRs to help Tigers defeat Guardians
All-Star outfielder Riley Greene had four RBIs in his ninth career multi-homer game as the visiting Detroit Tigers bounced back from a doubleheader sweep, beating the Cleveland Guardians 6-0 on Saturday night. Framber Valdez (9-10) pitched seven scoreless innings, matching his season high, and allowed three hits. The left-hander struck out three, walked one and hit a batter in shutting down American League playoff hopeful Cleveland (72-71).
‘Don’t know if I’ve ever felt more confident’ – Dak Prescott gets real on ending the Dallas Cowboys’ Super Bowl drought
The Dallas Cowboys are one of the most talked-about teams in the NFL, but it is a fact that they have gone 30 years without going to the Super Bowl or the NFC Championship Game. Even before the arrival of Dak Prescott, many thought it was only a matter of time before the Cowboys would get back to the top of the sport, but in all these years, it has been far from happening. Last season, once again, it looked like the team had a chance to finally end its drought, as the offense was clicking.
Salahdine Parnasse calls for ‘dream’ Max Holloway fight after stopping Dan Hooker in his debut
Salahdine Parnasse didn’t take much time before setting his sights on a new target. On September 5, Parnasse finished Dan Hooker in the first round to send the French fans home happy at the Accor Arena. Stepping into the main event on his debut showed just how highly people regard the new addition to the lightweight roster. Parnasse turned the UFC down several times in the past, but he’s now here to make up for lost time by going after the biggest names in the sport.
Pete Crow-Armstrong on cusp of NL first since Barry Bonds
San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds was easily the best player in baseball between 2001 and 2004. Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong may match Bonds' value this season. Bonds was the last National League player to reach at least 10 fWAR, doing so in 2004. He is also the only player to reach that plateau in the 2000s, with former Cubs outfielder Sammy Sosa coming closest with 9.9 fWAR in 2001.
Nate Sheppard rushes for 227 yards, 2 TDs as Duke tops Tulane

Sheppard added three receptions for 19 yards and was involved in nearly half of Duke's offensive plays. Walker Eget had an up-and-down debut as Duke's quarterback, with the San Jose State transfer completing 13 of 27 passes for 131 yards. Tulane was limited to 276 yards of total offense in Will Hall's debut as head coach.

According to reports, Smith is expected to sign a deal worth $12.25 million plus incentives that could increase his pay to $16.25 million.

Jeff Cavanaugh Sees Maxx Crosby Clue In Cowboys’ New Cap Space
What Jeff Cavanaugh Would Give Up For Maxx Crosby The price Cavanaugh would pay starts with a first-round pick and possibly a second, and he does not want to wait for the trade deadline. “I want Maxx Crosby today. I want him for 17,” Cavanaugh said. “I’m not here to blow smoke. I’m just here to tell you that this is one dumb ass’s opinion. They did not coincidentally get to an amount under the cap that fits Maxx. It’s not a coincidence.
Chris Paul Calls Experience With Clippers ‘Disrespectful’
He appeared in just 16 games before the Clippers decided to “part ways” with him in early December, keeping him on the roster, but sending him home. That continued until he was traded to Toronto in February in a financially motivated move. There was never an expectation that he would play for the Raptors, and they waived him eight days after the deal was completed. He announced his retirement on the same day.
