Who is the most insecure β€” not in a pejorative but more in a relatable way β€” athlete?

A certain amount of blustery ego is necessary for the profession. But someone has to be the most plagued-by-the-same-self-doubt-that-afflicts-most-of-us. Who is it

Keep Slides Weird Somewhere around the summer of 2023, I developed a nagging feeling that the slides in Major League Baseball games were better. ByΒ better, I didn’t mean cleaner or more fundamentally sound, but I reco...

dispatch from watching free ski halfpipe: little mustaches abound and, although I'm not sure I'm comfortable with this particular bit of self knowledge, I like them.

when people ski sideways or UP(!!!) for sport? awful, horrible, insane behavior. if you had to do that for some reason, it would be the worst day you ever had. you'd be regaling people for years with the wretched time you had to try to go UP the mountain in skis.

the thing I would add to this with an extra year of thinking about how the labor battle will play out is: revenue sharing. I suspect we will hear much more about revenue sharing in the coming months and, if they're smart, the players will position increased revenue sharing as a counter to a hard cap

blessed to be olympic caliber athlete, cursed to be good at a solo sport like sledding

wait no I am thrilled for this expert perspective! How do people end up in doubles? WHY do they end up doubles? Why are we stacking sledders!

does anyone know anyone who does double luge?

Sure, I'd love to chat to them if you do but that's not even my point. I'm just like, how many people, globally, do double luge? Have you ever met a double luge fan? A recreational double luge-r? A youth who aspires to double luge?

A funny feature of this Super Bowl matchup: a disproportionate number of 12 jerseys on both sides.

Girls flag football is booming at the high school level. It’s a little more complicated for the boys | CNN When Austin Sheepo first told his girlfriend that he plays on his high school flag football team, she was a little confused.

You've probably seen stories about how flag football is boomingβ€”for girls, in high school and increasingly college. But what about boys whose parents are also concerned about concussions? I talked to some of the only 825 boys who play HS flag, compared to 68,847 girls www.cnn.com/2026/02/07/s...

β€œIt’s almost like a toxic relationship. You want to get as close to football as you can without actually playing football.”

The best boys flag football team in the Bay Area knows that you wouldn’t watch football without the violence.
