The Rams’ first-round pick is an absolute baller. Here’s why.

Los Angeles Rams’ EDGE Jared Verse has been the most impressive defensive rookie in the NFL, and I’m not sure if it’s close. His 20% Pass Rush win rate has him tied with Pittsburgh’s TJ Watt, despite being doubled 25% of the time. He’s 11th in total pressures in the entire league as a rookie, and among all players with at least 15 pressures this season, he’s sixth in...

Tradeswomen still face sexism and competency questions

Gen Zers are landing job interviews through TikTok

The average American spends over two hours scrolling social media each day. Why not make at least some of that time productive?

I was a poll worker yesterday. It reaffirmed my faith in America

This week’s election felt like the most divisive of my lifetime, but instead of doom-scrolling my way through it, I found a place where people still put politics aside.

The week before the 2020 election, I took to running up and down the streets of Cambridge, Massachusetts, at night instead of sleeping. I gave myself shin splints and ended up frightening the neighbors.

What Elon Musk really wants

The Tesla CEO played a pivotal role in securing a second Trump presidency. Here’s where he stands on the issues.

If there’s one person former president Donald Trump can thank for his decisive election night victory, it’s Elon Musk. The tech billionaire propelled Trump to a second term on a wave of $119 million in funding to his America PAC, a spree of $1 million giveaways to registered voters, a spate of misleading ads online, and an aggressive voter turnout operation in swing states.

Why Giants might give Daniel Jones the Russell Wilson treatment this season

When the New York Giants signed quarterback Daniel Jones to a four-year, $160 million contract in March 2023, they reset the NFL quarterback market for guys that weren’t necessarily your top tier MVP candidates. They also fully guaranteed the first two years of the deal, but after 2024, New York can move on from Jones.

Here are all your questions about Daniel Jones’...

The Falcons’ secret weapon is unleashing their running game.

If I were making a list of the most fun offenses to watch in the NFL right now, the Atlanta Falcons would be near the top of that list. Ever since the loss to the Steelers (sans a hiccup against Seattle), the Falcons have been an incredibly well-designed, well-functioning machine, placing ninth in EPA per play and Sixth in Offensive Success Rate. Now, the Falcons...

How to take a mental health day after Election Day
