JUPITER, Fla. — This is what changing the system looks like. Baseball’s economic structure hasn’t been fair to players for a while now. Oh, it’s been great — once you’re out of the minors, anyway — but not fair. Especially for the younger players who increasingly shoulder the bulk of both the on-field production and the public marketability of the sport. Their compensation is prescribed by a collective bargaining agreement that is only rewritten a couple times every decade and… Source link

The NBA’s 75th Anniversary Team ceremony was a historic parade of stars young and old, and it wasn’t without a little suspense wither. At the beginning of the day, it wasn’t entirely clear if Michael Jordan, a player the NBA definitely would have wanted to have for its All-Star Game halftime festivities, would be in attendance. That was because of a little race known as the Daytona 500, in which Jordan’s 23XI Racing had two cars competing. Jordan was seen attending the race in Daytona Beach,… Source link

My favorite fight song in sports has always been “San Diego Super Chargers.” I don’t think it’s any coincidence that Dan Fouts threw for career-highs in passing yardage three seasons in a row after the song’s release in 1979. It’s a certified banger, trust me. The serotonin rush I get from listening to it is close to the rush I experienced when BetMGM released their Super Bowl LVII odds and I saw the Chargers listed at +2500. I’m jumping on that value before the free agency period starts,… Source link

“The 360” shows you diverse perspectives on the day’s top stories and debates. What’s happening Over the past few days, officials in a number of Democrat-led states have in the coming weeks.

Tennessee Titans safety Kevin Byard was asked last week if he’d view this season as a disappointment if it didn’t end with a Super Bowl ring. Yes, he answered. “We’ve accomplished some good things,” Byard said. “But when the playoffs start, none of that stuff means anything.” He was right. It didn’t. For Saturday’s AFC divisional playoff game against the Cincinnati Bengals at frenzied Nissan Stadium, the Titans were as rested and healthy as they’ve been all season. They had Source link

The NBA All-Star Game is just more than a month away, and if you ask Anthony Davis, he fully intends on making a ninth consecutive appearance. Davis spoke with Yahoo Sports about the upcoming festivities and his fitness since being sidelined with an MCL sprain for the last month. The 28-year-old said he “feels good.” “Body’s getting better, knee is getting better,” he added. “I’m just taking it one day at a time. Hopefully soon I’ll be able to step back on the floor and go back to playing the… Source link

A top Wall Street analyst thinks Apple’s stock (AAPL) is at risk of an earnings day sell-off, which would ultimately be a buying opportunity.  “Apple shares are up 19% since the October 4 low (vs. 5% for the S&P 500) suggesting December quarter upside is largely priced in,” warned Morgan Stanley tech analyst Katy Huberty in a new research note Thursday. Huberty expects Apple to report a better than expected quarter on Jan. 27, and guide to a relatively in line March quarter.  If the stock… Source link
