data-mm-id=”_2w7o3athx”>New York Jets fans generally hated the signing of Adam Gase as their new head coach in 2019. You know who loved it? Colin Cowherd, who said Jets fans were "clueless, they're dopes, they don't know anything" just before laying out why Gase was such a good hire. Turns out Jets fans might not have been so dumb after all. "Adam Gase to the Jets is a really good hire… This is a guy that had Peyton Manning's greatest year. He won with Tim Tebow. He had a winning record with Ryan Tannehill." — @ColinCowherd pic.twitter.com/PK2sTOj33B— Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) January 10, 2019A big shoutout to Funhouse on Twitter for resurfacing this clip from 2019 because it's about as freezing cold as a take can get. Gase has been p…

Three minutes after that, either Peel or his partner Kelly Sutherland said: "It wasn't much, but I wanted to get a f—ing penalty against Nashville early," wh…

data-mm-id=”_qs8k355w0″>Aaron Rodgers has been quiet lately. Frankly, a little too quiet considering how there has been no movement on his movement from the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets over the last few weeks. Trade talks appear to be stalled despite the fact that Rodgers made his desires clear a month ago. So what's going on? Well, the Jets aren't quite having second thoughts, but they don't seem all-in right now either. Here's Yahoo's Charles Robinson, on a recent radio appearance with ESPN Milwaukee's Wilde & Tausch (via SI): "If we’re going to do the whole thing of ‘Whose court is the ball in?’ I guess it’s in the Jets’ court, but the problem with that is that for the Jets it’s at a standstill. They’re saying no we’r…

data-mm-id=”_omzl3p3m8″>Lucas Giolito made his Cleveland Guardians debut on Monday and he got shelled. The righty gave up seven hits and nine earned runs in three innings and the Minnesota Twins beat the Guardians, 20-6. For Cleveland it was just another bad result in a lost year, but it earned Giolito's season a weird footnote: He's the first player to give up eight earned runs for three different teams in the same season since Bill Magee did it in 1899. Lucas Giolito is the first pitcher to allow 8+ runs in a game for 3 different MLB teams in the same season since Bill Magee did so in 1899 for the Louisville Colonels, Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Senators.— OptaSTATS (@OptaSTATS) September 5, 2023So how did this happen? Well, Giolito started the season with the Ch…

data-mm-id=”_pev5ty01r”>Kerby Joseph suffered a concussion during the Detroit Lions' Week 7 game against the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore had a 38-6 lead in the third quarter when Joseph lined up Odell Beckham Jr to make a tackle and Beckham Jr. responded by lowering his head and hitting Joseph right in the facemask with his helmet.

data-mm-id=”_a05hz05xn”>Several weeks ago the Philadelphia Eagles were defending NFC champions with a 10-1 record and a very good chance to secure the No. 1 seed and homefield throughout the playoffs. Jake Tapper was arguing that Jalen Hurts is every bit the quarterback Patrick Mahomes gets credit for being. Nick Sirianni had some swagger and passionate fans were still willing to talk crap.Well, that's all over now. Philadelphia disintegrated in incredible fashion, losing six of their final seven games, including last night down in Tampa against a Bucs team that's not even good. What a mess! When they take the field for meaningful football next fall, their roster will look much different. Here are five players who have likely played their last game in kelly green. Jason Kelce…

data-mm-id=”_rv79s7m1h”>Katie Ledecky's legacy was set long ago. She is the greatest American swimmer ever, having won 10 Olympic medals, including seven gold. However, her GOAT status didn't stop her from striving for more.The 27-year-old arrived at the Paris Olympics looking to add to her long list of achievements. On Saturday, she made more history in the 400-meter freestyle final, winning bronze to give her three Olympic medals in the event — the most ever in the 400 free — to go with her 2016 Olympic gold and 2020 Olympic silver. Ledecky has two more individual events left. On Tuesday, she'll swim her preliminary heat in the 1500 freestyle, her signature event and one she has dominated for over a decade, and will go for gold in Wednesday's final. She&#039…
