New York Giants co-owner John Mara knew firing Joe Judge was the right decision. Mara spoke about that choice Wednesday, explaining he felt the team hit “rock bottom” toward the end of the season. Mara’s full quote is actually much worse. He thought the team hit rock bottom weeks ago, only for the team to one-up its own failure every single week. That’s an honest — and scathing — assessment of Judge’s final weeks with the team. Judge drew headlines after a blowout loss against the Chicago… Source link

SAN FRANCISCO — Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob says he’s not a tweeter, but if he were to send a tweet, he knows exactly what it would say. “I would tweet, ‘Tonight Chase Center is finally finished with construction,’ ” Lacob told Yahoo Sports Sunday night after Klay Thompson made his season debut after spending nearly two years recovering from ACL and Achilles tears. “We’re halfway through our third year in this building, and I feel like Klay is the final piece to the… Source link

“Relentless” was a word Joe Judge used as an anchor in the first media conference of his New York Giants coaching career. It was the kind of buzzy, coach-speak term that rolls off the tongue well in interviews and can be easily plastered somewhere in the team facility. If Ted Lasso has “Believe,” Joe Judge has “relentless.” Relentless in losing … in making mistakes … in overseeing decline.  They’re relentless reminders that fruit of the Bill Belichick coaching tree is usually long… Source link

The New York Giants lost their fifth straight game by double digits on Sunday, and this was the ugliest of them all. Facing the 5-10 Chicago Bears, a team widely expected to fire their head coach after this season, the Giants weren’t just bad on offense, they were historically putrid. With starting quarterback Daniel Jones shut down for the season, back-up Mike Glennon finished the day 4-of-11 for 24 passing yards, two interceptions and four fumbles (two lost). Of Glennon’s four completed… Source link

Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals walloped the Baltimore Ravens in a Week 7 win. On Sunday, they picked up where they left off in a 41-21 victory over their division rivals to take control of the AFC North. The Bengals blitzed the Ravens for 31 first-half points as Burrow played on one of the best halves of football in the NFL this season — or any for that matter. Burrow hits Ravens with MJ shrug on historic day By the time he was done, he’d torched the Ravens for 525 passing yards, the… Source link

The Cincinnati Bengals are one of the few teams in the league that have managed to stay mostly healthy amid an NFL-wide COVID-19 surge. As of Wednesday afternoon, the Bengals had just one player on their reserve/COVID-19 list. Quarterback Joe Burrow has a pretty good reason why that is — though southwest Ohio residents may not be too happy with it. “Fortunately, there’s not a ton to do in Cincinnati,” he said Wednesday, via ESPN. While a small market town like Cincinnati doesn’t have… Source link

Some Democrats despise him. Some Republicans lionize him. He seems to be pleasing all the wrong people, but this could make Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia exactly the type of purplish crossover politician voters would cheer as a 2024 presidential candidate. Manchin, of course, has gained fame and notoriety for saying he won’t vote for President Biden’s “build back better” legislation. There are only 49 other Democratic senators, so Manchin’s defection is a de facto… Source link

The Carolina Panthers didn’t spend their bye week quietly.  As teams around the league got the early slate of games underway, the Panthers announced they have fired offensive coordinator Joe Brady. Head coach Matt Rhule made the call. “I met with Joe this morning and informed him that I have decided to make a change,” Rhule said, per a team statement. “I’m very grateful to him for his time and effort in helping us get established over this past year and a half.” Senior offensive assistant Jeff… Source link

Former Glory kickboxer and Bellator fighter Joe Schilling was caught on camera knocking out a man cold at a bar. Schilling shared the footage on his own Instagram account before it was taken down for violating the social media platform’s guidelines on harassment and bullying. The video remains on Twitter and went viral when it surfaced Monday, raising questions about what transpired. Few details were available initially but have since come to light. Here’s what we know so far about… Source link

On Tuesday night in Philadelphia, Washington Nationals ace Max Scherzer proved that it’s possible to spitefully, even combatively, unbuckle your belt and begin to disrobe on a baseball field. Given some time to think about it, though, it wasn’t the players he took issue with, it was the new state of the game. The first day of mandatory checks for the long-illegal sticky stuff abused by pitchers made the whole process seem rather seamless. The league’s new approach to foreign substances… Source link
