‘Skins Midseason Report 2019
Mark R. Bacon—Main Event Sports DC First half in two words: COMPLETE DISASTER. The Redskins fired coach Jay Gruden after an 0-5 start. They failed to trade holdout tackle Trent Williams, leading to harsh words by the Pro Bowler after he reported. They lost key players to injuries (tight end Jordan Reed and running back Chris Thompson) and, at 1-8,[…]
Early Look At The NBA’s 2019-2020 Rookie Class
Mark R Bacon—Main Event Sports DC The 2019-20 NBA season started on a down note regarding the incoming rookie class after Zion Williamson’s knee injury, but the newest crop has turned the narrative around in a hurry as the calendar turns to November.

Things We Like: Hachimura And The Latvian Laser
Mark R. Bacon—Main Event Sports DC The NBA Pre-Season Rankings Reverse Jinx lives! The Wiz—dead last in that annual rankings crap shoot—are kinda … fun? They are especially so with Rui Hachimura and Davis Bertans—The Latvian Laser—manning the forward spots. (This kind of look, pairing two tweeners who lean more toward the nominal power forward designation, seems to[…]
Meet Dan Snyder: THE Worst Owner In The History Of The NFL
Mark R Bacon—Main Event Sports DC An owner has more impact on an NFL team than what meets they eye.

It is an[…]

The Lakers Honeymoon Phase has Begun. Will It Last?
Mark R. Bacon—Main Event Sports DC Lakers’ head coach Frank Vogel smiled when he was asked for the Lakers’ starting lineup Saturday night before their first preseason game against the Golden State Warriors.

Firing Jay Gruden Won’t Fix the Washington Redskins. Only Removing Bruce Allen and Dan Snyder Will.
Mark R. Bacon—Main Event Sports DC Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden is going to be fired. Soon. This was something of a foregone conclusion even before Washington was thumped 24-3 by the rival New York Giants in a game that strengthened their grip on the NFC East cellar. Maybe it will happen Monday. Maybe[…]

Lee Ann Herring-Olvedo — MESPORTS South GAINESVILLE–Beta, Beta no time to rest its gameday in the Swamp and its time to be put to the test.

Skins’ File: Jordan Reed Finished?
Mark R. Bacon—Main Event Sports DC NO ONE has worse luck and is shot through and through with chronic, habitual misfortune than the Washington Redskins. NO ONE. So this comes as no surprise, but it still blows… The Skins have been eagerly awaiting the return of tight end Jordan Reed, but according to a new report, it’s possible[…]
Week 4: Keys To the Game: #7 NOTRE DAME (2-0,0-0 IND) @ #3 GEORGIA (3-0,1-0 SEC)
