data-mm-id=”_1hz87cuno”>On Sunday night the Dallas Cowboys buried the Philadelphia Eagles in a statement game, beating their divisional rivals 33-13. There was also, as we've come to expect, some extracirriculars happening in the stands. After the Cowboys put the finishing touches on their huge divisional victory, a video went viral of two fans engaging in a violent fight in the AT&T Stadium concourse. There are two things that make this fan fight video stand out compared to the others. The first thing is that one of the combatants is wearing a Michael Crabtree Raiders shirsey, which is an objectively hilarious decision. Two, this fight spilled into one of those silent auction areas that litter professional sports stadiums. So these dudes were swinging each other around into extremely, extremely expensive merchandise. Enjoy, with some music to go with it. pic.twitter.com/HYu7jAhuHM— everythingiswrestling (@E_I_Wrestling) December 11, 2023It is so improbable they didn't break anything. And yet it doesn't seem like they did! Two fully grown men stumbling into a signed Michael Jordan jersey and nothing bad happened. Unbelievable. This had the chance to be the most expensive fan fight we've seen yet. But the two men escaped scot-free from that particular charge.

Ryan Griffin, TE, New York Jets (Available in 98 percent of ESPN Leagues)Dallas Cowboys v New York Jets / Al Pereira/Getty ImagesThe Jets have seen a bit of a resurgence from their offense over the last few weeks, even if it was against weak competition. Griffin has been one of the main beneficiaries of this resurgence, especially this past week, in which he caught five passes for 109 yards and a touchdown to total 21.9 fantasy points.

Simultaneously, everything that occurred after the Viper's 9-0 lead this week was bad news. Tampa Bay has only scored nine points this season. And, based on their play, that is an overachievement.

All the players participating in the league's restart have been strong and constant in their unified messages to end police brutality and institutionalized racism in America. Thus, when asked about the video today, their frustration and anguish that this keeps happening was clear. It's also become clear to these men that simply speaking out isn't causing the widespread change they're calling for. Norman Powell and Fred VanVleet of the Toronto Raptors told reporters that boycotting a game or games is something the players have been talking about. Norm Powell and Fred VanVleet …
data-mm-id=”_v92l7lday”>The Los Angeles Clippers blew a 3-1 lead to the Denver Nuggets in the second round of the NBA bubble playoffs. Less than two weeks later, Doc Rivers found himself unemployed. Such a disappointing postseason loss from this talented of a team is definitely a group effort, but Rivers didn't help matters by making some extremely questionable rotation decisions throughout the playoffs. Ultimately, his and his team's inability to get it done when it mattered most led to his pink slip. Rivers, at 58-years-old, is still looking to coach. And while this season was indeed a letdown of the highest measure, Rivers' resume and reputation still makes him an attractive coaching option for the five teams currently without a head coach.

data-mm-id=”_dn0uocuqi”>The NBA and everyone involved knew the 2020-21 season was going to be complicated. Without the benefit of the bubble, each team is subject to the chance that a COVID diagnosis could sideline important players for weeks at a time. Less than a month through the season, that has proved more true than anticipated. The Philadelphia 76ers suffered a coronavirus outbreak a few days ago. It all came to a head today when the Sixers were at risk of not having enough players eligible to play against the Nuggets this afternoon. Under the new rules for this season, that would result in a forfeit. Philly got tests results back for three players this morning, and they now have nine. Philadelphia has nine eligible players today for 3 PM tip vs. Denver, including Ben Simmons, Ty…

This eclectic group of accomplished athletes was gathered for the ICON series tournament, described as, "a truly unique sporting event, bringing together the world's biggest sporting icons to compete in a series of competitive team matchplay format events." Set up like an amateur Ryder Cup of sorts, there were two teams comprised of 13 athletes each. The American team, led by Fred Couples, faced off against the Rest o…
data-mm-id=”_s3oloc8ug”>On a team full of high-priced stars, a diminutive middle infielder with largely pedestrian offensive numbers might be the most indispensable player. It's time we talked about Ha-Seong Kim. When the San Diego Padres signed Kim out of the KBO in December of 2020, the deal barely caused a blip on the offseason radar. The Friars were in the middle of a stunning stretch in which they acquired Yu Darvish, Blake Snell and Joe Musgrove and locked Fernando Tatis Jr. up with a 14-year extension. The addition of a presumed utility guy to a low-cost, four-year contract didn't seem like a big deal. Two-and-a-half seasons later it wouldn't be crazy to call Kim the most underrated player in Major League Baseball. Kim played for the Kiwoom Heroes in Korea from 20…
