Surprise surprise: UFC 330 turned out exactly like most thought it would
August is normally a dead month for UFC. They don't really compete with any other sports during the weekends in this time of year so they don't normally put their best lineup forward. This card was...

Can you believe that this league has been around for 30 years? Can you also believe that in that 30 years the league has never manged to turn a profit? Certain teams have made modest profits but th...
Opening day tickets for 76ers are a crazy price
When LeBron went to Philly for such a low price of around, I think it was 3 million a year, I was thinking that this is an absolute bargain for Philly. Of course it was entirely LeBron's choice and...
Upcoming UFC 330 is a weak card
