After many years of passing on the opportunity, I can say I’ve “seen” former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr (and his All-Starr Band) live on tour. I put it in quotes because he rocked the Filene Center at Wolf Trap in Vienna, Virginia, on Tuesday, June 17, 2025. If you’ve never sat on the lawn at […]

All-NBA snub cost Jaren […]

There is arguably no NBA team that is worse at drafting and that makes more poor draft day decisions than the Sacramento Kings.

The Milwaukee Bucks are reeling after a second straight playoff exit.

Each memory (except one) reflects his […]

Having been founded in 1989, the Minnesota Timberwolves are one of the youngest teams in the NBA.

Anthony Edwards has been a star since […]

It would be unfair and disingenuous to assume Celine Song’s follow-up to Past Lives — a modern masterpiece — would top it, and to that end, her new movie Materialists was DOA. Song enlists the help of a star-studded trio, Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal, to tell the slice-of-life story of Materialists. On […]

Michael Carter-Williams last played in the NBA for the Orlando Magic during the 2022-2023 season.

Flyweight is by far the youngest weight class in the UFC. There wasn’t a division for 125-pounders in mixed martial arts’ top promotion until 2012. On top of that, the division has often been criticized for its lack of finishes and looked down upon as MMA’s least important division. Flyweights are constantly trying to prove […]
