Just for a change, let’s start with US sports.
BASKETBALL
Just guessing, but I assume Drew Magary isn’t on Kobe Bryant‘s Christmas card list.
What’s with the sleeves?
NHL
Fights are in decline. But who are the best fighters for the money?
F1
Great analysis of the best ever Formula One drivers.
BOXING
Heavyweight views. This great profile was prior to Tyson Fury‘s win over Wladimir Klitschko, but it’s worth reading for his bizarre rants about gay people, paedophiles, devil worshippers and Armageddon. And this guy is in the running for Sports Personality?
TENNIS
Andy Murray – The Man Who Couldn’t Lose (in the Davis Cup. In 2015).
Britain’s 1978 Davis Cup campaign was anything but dull.
ATHLETICS
Seb Coe might have great hair, but he can’t admit that he’s got things wrong.
RUGBY
The Cult: Jonny Wilkinson
CRICKET
Why has taken so long to play the first day-night Test match? Balls.
FOOTBALL
How an unpredictable Premier League has a knock on for English clubs in the Champions League.
Chelsea’s terrible title defence is nothing new.
An essay on referees and vanishing spray. Really.
That’s it – see you next Tuesday.
