In its first awarding of the idiot of the month dishonor, U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (Alabama-Republican) has been dragged through the mud in vile fashion by Deadspin. Sen. Tuberville gets a thorough trashing by being portrayed as "the shotgun pointed at our face," an ignorant idiot and as Rudy Giuliani’s go-to stooge who keeps falling upward and can do the nation real damage.

The latest so-called “proof” of “systemic racism” in the United States has arrived on the heels of the just-completed National Football League head coach hiring phase. Five of the new seven head coaches are white men, one is African American and one is Lebanese.

America has been broken by radicalized people out for blood. They’re racists and homophobes and worried about illegal aliens taking their jobs. These are the opinions of Stan Van Gundy, head coach of the NBA’s New Orleans Pelicans, the self-described poster boy for white guilt and a man who obviously doesn’t get his news from Newsmax.

Year after year, arrest after arrest, the National Football League’s domestic violence plague continues with no end in sight. It’s because the league and society simply do not care. If a player abuses off the field and has the skill or potential to contribute on the field, he’s all too often allowed to keep playing, says USA Today writer Mike Freeman.

We knew the NBA was going to the dogs, but the Miami Heat’s plan to use China Virus-sniffing canines to hound fans’ entry into the arena is a bit over the top. At any rate, it’s bad optics for the NBA, already on record as too cowardly to stand up to China on human rights.

Nike’s role as a cultural and "progressive" icon and the most powerful brand in sports can’t be overstated. The Swoosh logo is everywhere, and the multinational corporation is linked at the hip with social justice warriors like Colin Kaepernick and Megan Rapinoe, the LGBT movement and other left-wing causes. This image was shattered Tuesday night by a damning report on the HBO program Real…

The Feb. 7 Super Bowl is shaping up as a tale of two great quarterbacks: Kansas City’s young gunslinger Patrick Mahomes and Tampa Bay’s old G.O.A.T. Tom Brady. Great as their legacies are, neither can compare to the one preferred by The New York Times writer Kurt Streeter – Colin Kaepernick. 

Sports and culture commentator Jason Whitlock, who recently ended his partnership with Outkick, went on the attack against Black Lives Matter over the weekend. He didn’t do so without rebuttal from BLM-sympathizing USA Today.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar once got punished by the NBA for sucker punching rival center Kent Benson. As a Democrat apologist for Hollywood Reporter, he now prefers to sucker punch former President Donald Trump and the MAGA crowd. Abdul-Jabbar says he participated in the Biden inauguration because he wanted to relaunch the ship of state with a real captain at the helm.

If you’re a male seeking to intrude upon female sports, an athlete and climate change nut or an athlete looking for a good free meal, Joe Biden is the president for you. Dustin Foote explains why in the Deadspin story “From White House visits to NCAA reform, what should sports expect from a Joe Biden administration.”

USA Today sportswriter and Trump hater Christine Brennan blasted Hall of Fame golf legend Annika Sorenstam and much of the golf world Wednesday for refusing to trash former President Donald Trump. Sorenstam has sold her soul for the outgoing president and blew it by not repudiating him, Brennan wrote.

SBNation’s André Carlisle is lamenting the decline of athletes kneeling during the national anthem, and he blames it on the long-term refusal of white Americans to dismantle the effects of whiteness.

An old Swedish proverb says, “Sweep first before your own door, before you sweep the doorsteps of your neighbors.” One NFL reporter with egg on his face today would have done well to heed this simple but sound advice.

The Associated Press gushed about President-elect Joe Biden inviting Sarah Fuller to Wednesday’s inauguration. If her name escapes you, she was the first woman to score (she kicked two extra points with opposing players refusing to rush her) in a Power Five conference football game this past season.
