While LeBron James’ status as the greatest player ever is still up for debate, NBA legend Charles Barkley says his career is the best story we’ve ever seen from any professional athlete. “I think Michael Jordan is a better player but I think LeBron’s story is arguably the greatest story in sports because out of all the guys who came from High School to the NBA, he was the only one who was ready… from day one. For him to be where he started at 18 to where he is today, I think it’s the greatest sports story in history.…

The Los Angeles Lakers got back on the winning side of things on Friday as they drafted the lonely San Antion Spurs, 123-118. The Lakers were in control throughout the entire game. Even though that was the case, it doesn’t mean it was a cakewalk. Although the Spurs have the third worst record in the league, they possess the game’s youngest and brightest star in the league, 2023 first-overall pick Victor Wembanyama. Wembanyama is projected to be a future superstar and possibly a Hall of Famer in this league. He has the talent and possesses all the tools to be…

A detailed assessment by a data analysis company has revealed that Ruben Amorim is the best option for Liverpool to replace Jurgen Klopp – not Xabi Alonso. The Reds are on the hunt for a new manager. Klopp will leave the club at the end of this season, and a number of names have been linked with his job already. Alonso is almost everybody’s favourite choice, but stats show he’s nowhere near as good for Liverpool as some of their other targets. If you go on the streets of Liverpool and ask most Reds fans who they want as their…

Indeed, the latter…

The Pittsburgh Steelers got some really good news from the NFL in regards to the 2024 salary cap, and then went out and saved more space by releasing center Mason Cole on Friday. The NFL set the 2024 salary cap at $255.4 million, which is significantly higher than it had been projected to be. The salary cap is set based on a formula regarding league revenue.

Special teams are often overlooked in today’s NFL, but it was one of the Steelers’ biggest weaknesses in 2023. Pittsburgh watched punter Pressley Harvin III average just 43.7 yards per punt over the past three years and the team finally decided it’s seen enough, cutting the former seventh-round pick as part of its first round of releases. This vacancy opened the door for Matt Araiza to return to the NFL, though not with the Steelers. Araiza, a sixth-round pick by the Bills in 2022, set NCAA records in punt average (51.19), 60-yard punts (18) and 50-yard punts (39) in a…

The guards remain with the team, but Cole will now be looking for a new NFL employer. He had started every Steelers game over the past two seasons. One season remained on Cole’s three-year, $15.75M deal. No void-year complications or other restructure matters, which the Steelers dabble in frequently,…
