Pep Guardiola is arguably the best coach we have ever seen. He has single-handedly warped and revolutionized how modern teams play to the point where FIFA changed its rules to encourage everyone to embrace his tiki-taka style. He has also been extremely influential in the three countries he has coached in, as I wrote about here: Pep Guardiola Is...
The World Cup is well and truly on the way, and despite hurtling towards an unfortunate record for most scoreless draws, I believe one team will provide a silver lining in this tournament. I predict the Spanish National Team will break the standing record for most goals in a single World Cup.
It has been eight long years since the U.S. played in a World Cup, but somehow the pessimism is at an all-time high. Well, maybe not, since technically, the USMNT is tied for third with bets-on to win the World Cup, but it feels like most people expect the USMNT to fail out of the group. For the most part,...
From a spiritual sense, I feel like it's time for Karl Anthony-Towns to move on. Keeping him on the team feels like the wrong thing to do. Like anyone else, I want the Timberwolves to be good with KAT, but unfortunately that window shut when Minnesota sent an all time package to Utah for Rudy Gobert. My far-fetched take is...
The World Cup is right around the corner, so the hot takes must keep flowing. This time I am here to tell you that the defending world cup champions will flame out of the group stages. It won't be the first time France has disappointed in the tournament after reaching a final- they can't help themselves.
With the World Cup only a few weeks away, it is time to make some bold predictions. I am here with my prediction for who I believe will win the Young Player of the Tournament, an award that often precedes a glamorous professional career, as won by the likes of Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe, Lukas Podolski, Thomas Muller, Marc Overmars,...
The story of the 2022-23 season has been that historic team in Naples. Napoli is almost halfway through what could become one of their best-ever seasons. Fifteen games into the season, Napoli is yet to lose. Napoli finds itself on top of the table in Serie A, three points ahead of AC Milan, and has been truly dominant in the...
After a strange season last year, where Julius Randle would let the home fans know how miserable he was during the games, the Knicks are reinvigorated with restored hope. The Knicks signed Jalen Brunson, cleared minutes for young guys, and didn't do a blockbuster trade! With the team finally having a point guard and the chance for the young players...
In the NBA, it is typically a safe bet that at least one to two teams in each division will be bad enough to not be playoff contenders, even going into the season. Whether it be due to injuries, or just a general lack of talent and cohesion on a roster, the likelihood for every team in a division...
Zion Williamson is back and in better shape than ever. Meaning one of the most uniquely unstoppable forces in NBA history is in better physical condition than he has ever been. Combine that with joining a roster that proved they were a playoff team without him, and you have the recipe for an MVP season.
