As free agency approaches, teams are beginning to release expensive or underperforming players to open salary cap space. See who’s looking for a new team here.
I get it. Most of you don’t have the luxury of working from home, allowing you to immerse yourself within March Madness while ignoring urgent emails from the nerds in accounting.
But instead of hiding your phone underneath TPS reports or spending an unusual amount of time in the office john starting around noon eastern, I have a solution.
Fake Covid!

Don’t blame it on the Wuhan lab, God forbid, but do stay home and enjoy this year’s Sister Jean or Dirty Doug.
She’s one of the best players in the country.

Fred Couples being the level-headed legend he is doesn’t have a problem with LIV Golf, but he does have a problem with the players who have joined the Saudi-backed golf league spewing generic taglines while also bashing the PGA Tour.
The 1992 Masters champion recently attended a breakfast to promote this week’s PGA Tour Champions event, the Hoag Classic, and did not hold back while sharing his opinion about LIV golfers.
He didn’t just loop all LIV golfers together in one group, either, he specifically took aim at Phil Mickelson.
The Memphis star has provided his first comments since his “terrible mistake,” but what can his team expect from him once his suspension is over?
Ja Morant will be back.

Fans are expecting chalk through the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament
It’s crunch time to get the final picks in before the NCAA Tournament starts in earnest. Before the first tip of the Round of 64 Thursday, the public made their picks for the first weekend and took a look to the Final Four.
The biggest takeaway from college basketball fans at-large – chalk.
Three of the four No. 1 seeds were picked to reach the Final Four by fans, according to the latest SB Nation Reacts survey.
Veteran college basketball official Ted Valentine has worked 10 Final Fours and four national title games. However, he is not officiating the NCAA Tournament in 2023.
Valentine is not allowed. It marks the second year in a row that he is away from March Madness due to an issue that occurred during the 2021 NCAA Tournament, which was held in a bubble.
The 64-year-old was one of six college basketball officials who were removed from the 2021 Tournament after one tested positive for COVID-19.
Who has the most notorious graduate?
It’s March. Maybe you’ve heard of it? The third month of the year, oh and also IT’S BRACKET TIME BABY!
Years ago I did a bracket based on the greatest alumni from each school. It was a ton of fun, and eventually Tina Fey cut down the nets for Virginia. Now we’re doing something a little different.
WELCOME TO THE SHITTY ALUMNI BRACKET! First off, know that this is all extremely subjective. If you love Rob Riggle’s comedy or Moby’s music, then more power to you.
