Aaron wants to stay in the dark.
Aaron Rodgers is the kind of free thinker who doesn’t believe he’s the reason for any problems. So after the Jets got blown out 37-15 it was time to correctly focus his frustration on his own play, how to get better, and what the Jets can do to turn their season around he blamed the media for the Jets’ 2-5 start.
“Stop listening to you guys, number one.”

We’ve reached the eighth week of the college football season, and it’s time for some athletic directors around the country to start making hard decisions about the future of their programs.
While in previous years this might’ve been a decision that was made following the season’s end, we’re in a new era of college sports that makes this a situation that needs to be handled now, not later.
Donald Trump attended the Steelers-Jets game on Sunday night. But viewers of the matchup on NBC may not have known he was there – unless they happened to catch a few seconds of the broadcast midway through the first quarter.
NBC showed the former president in attendance just once during the entire three-and-a-half-hour broadcast, for a total of four seconds. Play-by-play commentator Mike Tirico quickly acknowledged Trump in the box, and then cameras returned to the field.
In essence, the network checked the box by acknowledging Trump attended the game and decided never to mention it again.

The Jets are a mess with or without Robert Saleh and Davante Adams
In August, I wrote about why the New York Jets are built on a series of hypotheticals, all of which had the chance of actually being true. One of the sections that I had in that story stands out today, less than 24 hours after the Jets fell to 2-5 after a 37-15 loss to the Russell Wilson-led Pittsburgh Steelers, a game that was supposed to be the first spark of a team that fired their head coach earlier this month.

Sorry if you’re a fan of one of these teams.
There are plenty of simple and advanced metrics for judging how good a team is, but today we’re looking at the other end of the spectrum. Everyone knows who the best teams are in the NFL, but it’s a little more difficult to truly judge the bleak, the putrid — the teams lacking wins right now, and hope in the future.

Mitch Wishnowsky put a bow on an awful Week 7 loss to the Chiefs.
When it rains, it pours. The San Francisco 49ers had an awful day in Week 7. They lost to the Kansas City Chiefs 28-18 in a game that saw Brandon Aiyuk suffer a serious knee injury and Brock Purdy put together one of his worst performances as a pro.
It’s only fitting the game concluded with the 49ers attempting arguably the worst onside kick in NFL history.

Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve was in a terrible mood on Sunday night after her team lost the series-clinching Game 5 of the WNBA Finals. Your team losing a championship, in overtime no less, typically gives you an excuse to be angry, but when you’re in a constant state of bitterness like Reeve is, it’s hard to give her the benefit of the doubt.
It also doesn’t give Reeve a free pass to accuse the league of rigging the game, which is exactly what she did during her postgame press conference.
Ladies and gentlemen, we might have found the most interesting man on the internet.
While Texas got kicked in the teeth Saturday night in Austin by the Georgia Bulldogs, a hero rose from the ashes to take social media by storm.
A hero with a unique look that has people talking. How does one describe it? It’s a blend of Conway Twitty and a football helmet guardian cap.
No, that’s not an exaggeration. That’s real. Check out this beast of a Texas fan below, and try to tell me he’s not insanely badass.
It was a little toasty in Santa Clara, Calif., for the Super Bowl LVIII re-match between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. So the Chiefs’ starters found a creative way to stay cool.
See, the visiting sideline at Levi’s Stadium has no shade. So with temperatures in the mid-80s and the sun beating down, the Chiefs made their own shade — at the expense of some back-up players.
“It was supposed to be about 84 degrees. I can tell you, the sun’s beating down,” sideline reporter Erin Andrews said.

Let’s rank every team in the NBA by their 2025 championship chances to start the season.
The start of a new NBA season is the ultimate time for optimism. Every team is undefeated, and each organization’s season-long goals are still within reach.
The NBA is fully entrenched in its parity era. The league has had a different champion each of the last six years, something that hasn’t happened since 1975-1980.
