This football team shows what we lose when we ignore our real history (washingtonpost.com) This football team shows what we lose when we ignore our real history By Sally Jenkins 2025042011000000 The most priceless piece of sports memorabilia I've ever seen isn't some ordinary souvenir, a cap or a collectible card.

The tush push is brutal and boring. Ban it before it’s too late. (washingtonpost.com) The tush push is brutal and boring. Ban it before it’s too late. By Sally Jenkins 2025033121301000 The tush push is a boring, brutish play. It's essentially a pile of men, and as with all piles of men — from the medieval fortress to the financial group — it is inherently dull, yet there is no adequate answer for it.

They are large public figures with the wealth of pharaohs, and yet LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith display the egos of eggshells. Their yah-yahing has gone on for a month now, first Stephen A. with his armchair braying and now LeChosen One on a show with an even louder rasp, Pat McAfee’s, trading what we are to understand as manly barbs in an argument over honor. But the true, if cynical-sour, amusement lies in watching their duel of fragility.

I would pay to watch that.
