Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio has become one of the most criticized media figures out there this week thanks to his comment on Dallas radio station 105.3 The Fan last Friday that a potential video tape of Dez Bryant may be a reason the Cowboys haven’t yet signed him to a new contract. That comment appears to […]

Plenty of people inside the sports media world were more than a little irritated when FIFA gave the American television rights to the 2026 World Cup (and all events up through 2026) to Fox Sports without opening up the bidding to ESPN, NBC, or other potential bidders.

But the action hero apparently made time in his schedule for an upcoming project. And besides, this isn’t just for TV […]
