Joe Davis and John Smoltz don’t stop talking, so a game as often riveting as Friday ’s had to be suffered.

There was no moment that went unpoisoned by Davis 's excitable exaggerations and reminders that we were watching — or trying to watch — the World Series .

He habitually chooses superfluous filler over welcomed silence.

ESPN ’s latest “espnW: Women + Sports Summit’ will be held this week , and again, “empowerment” will be the theme.

Five of the seven women seen in photos promoting this event are black, yet ideology trumps reality, says Spero Dedes .

It consistently disturbs that these women consistently ignore the growing presence of sexually degrading, vulgar and N -worded targets of black rappers’ fame and fortune on sports events.
