The Worst Team In The NFL’s Worst Division
Mark Bacon—Main Event Sports DC Win or lose on Monday night, the Dallas Cowboys will remain atop the NFC East, a division in which each of the other three teams has only a single win, with two of those victories coming against division rivals.

Chomped by COVID: Florida Gators Forced to Halt Football Activities
Lee Ann Herring-Olvedo MESPORTS SOUTH Follow her on Twitter @Misskyus2011 GAINESVILLE,FL– To say it’s been a heck of a start to the week for Coach Dan Mullen and his Florida Gators would be putting it mildly.

Anthony Davis’ Trade Request Was An Absolute Mess — And He Got Everything He Wanted
Mark Bacon—Main Event Sports DC When Anthony Davis heard the buzzer go off after Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night, he realized that he had won a championship, the first title of his career.

Jimmy Butler’s Will To Win Is Remarkable
Mark Bacon—Main Event Sports DC The Miami Heat had that attitude entering Game 5, like you knew it would.

Dwayne Haskins’s Pro Career Lands Him In The Company Of All-Time NFL QB Busts
Mark Bacon—Main Event Sports DC At some point this season, Ron Rivera will have to make a tough decision about quarterback Dwayne Haskins.
