PSG have already been crowned Ligue 1 champions but there is no chance of the season petering out. As May approaches, the word “permutations” makes its annual appearance in the footballing lexicon, bringing with it a sense of powerlessness and paranoia. The relationship between a club’s onfield performances and success is complicated – everything becomes contingent upon what is happening elsewhere and words heard uttered through hand-held radios or notifications popping-up on smartphone screens can engender hopelessness or euphoria in equal measure.

This is usually reserved for the final day of the season but it has already been reached in Ligue 1 with three rounds of games to play. Deciphering the various scenarios in the league fee…

AFC East division preview 2024 predicted order of finish, record New York Jets (13-4) Veteran signal-caller Aaron Rodgers is back to take care of business on one side of the ball while what could end up being the top-rated defense in the league will be going to work on the other. Miami Dolphins (11-6) The second-highest scoring team in the league last season essentially brings back the same star-studded offense. Buffalo Bills (9-8) Just because Josh Allen is Josh Allen doesn't mean the offense is going to click with a new receiving corps. New England Patriots (4-13) Coach Jerod Mayo only has a few weapons at his disposal in his first year at the helm. A brutal schedule doesn't make life any easier, either. Three AFC East MVP candidates Bills QB Josh A…

One day after Sean Miller defiantly denied ESPN’s report that he’d been caught on an FBI wiretap promising to pay a recruit $100,000, point guard Brandon Williams ( 24/7 Sports’s 31st-ranked national prospect) announced that he’s reopening his recruitment due to the “current climate surrounding U of A.” Williams joins Shareef O’Neal and Jahvon Quinerly in decommitting from Arizona, and his departure leaves Sean Miller’s program with zero 2018 recruits. FBI documents showed that Quinerly was most likely the unnamed player who received a $150,000 payment from former Wildcats assistant Book Richardson, and he’s since landed at Villanova. Williams originally committed to Arizona last June, though he never signed a letter of intent, which meant he was not technically bou…

Some people are fans of the Atlanta Falcons. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Atlanta Falcons. This 2015 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Your team: The Atlanta Falcons, proud byproducts of the Georgia educational system… Your 2014 record: 6-10. But that was no ordinary 6-10, people. Remember when the Falcons played the Lions at 9:30am ET in London? And blew a 21-0 lead in the arguably the most poorly coached game in NFL history? I do! The Lions won that game after they missed a field goal, got hit with a delay of game penalty, and then nailed the winning field goal when Atlanta couldn’t decline the penalty. I’m gonna miss Mike Smith. HEY MIKE, THERE’S A BAT IN YOUR CAVE!
