  • Sunday Shootaround: What do you do with DeMarcus Cousins?

    Sunday Shootaround: What do you do with DeMarcus Cousins?
    The saga of Boogie Cousins What do you do with DeMarcus Cousins? Man, that’s a loaded question. The short answer: nothing.

Cousins is also clearly in his prime. You don’t trade players like DeMarcus Co..

  • Jeff Fisher's problems are never his fault, and he has a contract extension to prove it

After three tries, they finally, maybe found their franchise quarterback, Jared Goff, and traded away a bundle of draft picks get him. Most exciting of all, head coach Jeff Fisher proclaimed on premium cable for all the world to see that he “was NOT fucking going 7-9 ... or 8-8 ... or 9-7, okay?” Sure enough, the Rams are sitting at 4-7, one loss away from the fifth consecutive non-winning seas..

  • Upon Further Review: Wisconsin vs. Penn State

    Upon Further Review: Wisconsin vs. Penn State
    Deflating. There are plenty of words to describe the Wisconsin Badgers' 38-31 loss to the Penn State Nittany Lions in the Big Ten championship game, but that one above might be the best. Maybe devastating would be more apt. At one point, it looked like Wisconsin was on its way to a rout -- holding a 21-point lead in the first half -- and perhaps a playoff-statement type of game. In the end, the Badgers were left dumbstruck, wondering how they blew such a big lead despite having one of the ..

    Kaepernick's future clouded by potential 49ers changes, anthem protest
    Getty ImagesThe starting point for this one comes from a report that, given the performance of 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick in recent weeks, is fairly obvious: According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, Kaepernick will exercise his right to void his contract after the current season, but Kaepernick could indeed be back with the 49ers in 2017. Even if/when Kaepernick voids the contract, the 49ers will still hold exclusive negotiating rights until the 2017 league year begins in March. Whether..
