The NBA All-Star game has become completely unwatchable and a promotion of certain teams
Opinion by Tim Shirer
The NBA All-Star game has become a complete and total farce. It’s hard to describe what it has become without using phrases like “a mess,” “a complete joke,” “completely unwatchable,” “9 team lovefest”.
I know a lot of people don’t want to hear “The way it used to be” stories, if you are one of them you might want to stop reading now. Click here for the whole story
Guardians front office leaving fans to wonder, will the future ever be now?
Opinion by Tim Shirer
On Monday, the Cleveland Guardians assigned first base prospect Kyle Manzardo to their minor league camp. The power hitting first baseman Manzardo was acquired by the Guardians at the trade deadline for Aaron Civale last season when the team was one and a half games behind the first place Minnesota Twins. Civale at the time was the team’s best pitcher with injuries to Shane Bieber and Triston McKenzie. General Manager Mike Chernoff and team President Chris Antonetti took a lot of heat from the already disgruntled fan base and the media that already treat the team like a stepchild to the Browns.

It's no surprise Teresa Witherspoon's Chicago Sky plays the physical game they do
Opinion by Tim Shirer
From 1997 at its inception to 2003 when the Cleveland Rockers folded, I covered the WNBA. I covered nearly every Rockers home game in the seven seasons. The only game I missed was on July 30, 2001, when the Rockers played Orlando Miracle due to the birth of my son.
One thing that was very clear in those seven seasons was that the WNBA’s powers that be (David Stern and Val Ackerman) wanted nothing more than the New York Liberty to win a championship, this narrative was clear from the start. They stacked their original team with talent. One of the players on the stacked Liberty team was Teresa Witherspoon. Witherspoon was a talented point guard, which cannot be denied. But because she played for New York she was enabled by the league to play a very rough style with ZERO consequences from the league office. Click here for the whole story
