Bring me more playoff football.

Basketball season is entertaining enough, especially with Auburn being electric, but the NBA is dead until May and the MLB offseason is slower than Rob Manfred’s development of the game.

Excuse my French, but the sports landscape “sucks ass” right now. I’m not really sure what other adjectives to use to describe the boringness of the weeknight-to-weeknight sports slate.

Anyway, here is everything that happened last night.

Mike’s Way.

The Dallas Cowboys are the definition of mediocrity.

Owner Jerry Jones has decided to hang onto his head coach after the team put up an absolute egg in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs. It’s clear McCarthy helped Dak Prescott take a step in the right direction in 2023, but considering Prescott and the rest of the Cowboys looked more rattled than a driver in a 1963 presidential motorcade, a firing would have made sense.

Instead, Dallas will run it back with McCarthy, Prescott, and most of the coaching staff heading into next season despite being the only home team to lose a playoff game.

I’m sure that will work out perfectly.

Fear what Deer.

The Milwaukee Bucks lost again on Wednesday, falling to just 9-9 away from Fiserv Forum this season.

While they were missing Giannis and road losses are to be expected, the trend of losing away from home is perturbing for a team not likely to garner enough wins for the No. 1 seed in the East.

We are in the dog days of the NBA season so I’m sure we’ll see the Bucks turn it on once the pollen starts making everyone sneeze, but with the Celtics and Sixers playing elite basketball the road to home-court is difficult.

Upsets down under.

Move over college basketball, tennis is taking over the anarchy spotlight for now.

Elena Rybakina has gone down in the second round of the Australian Open. The 24-year-old was the co-second favorite to win the tournament, making the early exit extremely dissapointing for the Russian phenom.

Unfortunately, Section 400 contributor Matt gave out Rybakina as his future to win it all on the women’s side in our most recent podcast. Go listen to see who else he gave out to win the tournament so you can tail/fade along.

New podcast is live.
