The pitch clock is good for baseball
Major League Baseball (MLB) is changing.

Mahomie captures the dub
Wanted the Eagles to win: Before I get into my thoughts on the 2023 Super Bowl, I must preface this by saying that I am a huge New England Patriots fan.

Vegetables ranking

After some very controversial National Football League (NFL) Conference Championships, we have this year’s Super Bowl matchup.
