We've probably annoyed you with our opinion at some point.

A friend told me about Pique's new soccer league, and I have to say, I looked into it and became a huge fan. And I bet you will become a fan once you learn about it. I'm writing this to help bridge that gap.

Juventus is in yet another scandal. This one is better or worse, depending on how you look at it, than the last scandal that saw them relegated in 2006. That time they were match-fixing, and this time around, they were falsifying financial information, which can be viewed as a form of match-fixing since you can now afford players you would...

Every half-decade, tactics change as coaches constantly seek a cutting edge. Long gone are the days when tactics shifted only every few decades as coaches utilized a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 with little tactical nuance. Guardiola changed that with his breakthrough 15 years ago at Barcelona due to his hyper-focus on tactical superiority. Combine that with the...

I am here to discuss and rank what I believe to be the ten greatest hattricks ever. There are only two qualifiers I used: One, bangers only. The importance of the game matters some, but first and foremost is how good the goals were. Two, no hattricks that included a penalty make my list. We're talking about the best of...

It's hard to imagine that at this time last year, Liverpool was competing in 4 different competitions and at the doorstep of completing an unprecedented historic quadruple. Maybe coming so close to winning it all makes this version of Liverpool even harder to accept for fans. How could a team that played such beautiful futbol, dominated opponents,...

The Cleveland Cavaliers have made themselves serious dark horse contenders. The team is currently 28-19, sitting 5th in the eastern conference. 4th in net rating with an offense ranked 12th, and a defense ranked 2nd. The Acquisition of Donovan Mitchell has proved to be an early success. Mitchell has been playing at an all-star level and is flirting...

Yes, Manchester United was worse because of Cristiano Ronaldo last season, despite his goals. No, the same doesn't apply to Erling Haaland and Manchester City this season. Let me explain.

What is a footballmerate? Footballmerates are kind of like franchising. When I say franchising, I'm not talking about the term franchise as used in American sports. I'm talking about franchising as in business, where corporations open multiple locations globally to maximize their reach and influence. In this case, we are heading for a future where...

Has everyone forgotten how inevitable this guy is? Or are we all just deciding to ignore him because he is another year older and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 8-9? Tampa currently has the eighth-highest odds to win the Super Bowl, and with a team that still contains a lot of the pieces that won it two years ago,...

For what it is worth, I think players like Trent Alexander-Arnold are the future of the sport. Truly position-less marvels that do not fit well in the rigid roles of most modern tactics. An entity well ahead of his time, he exists in the ethers of the game, not suited for any traditional position but remaining much too talented to...
