The Oakland Raiders fired general manager Reggie McKenzie on Monday. McKenzie, 55, had served as GM since 2012 and was under contract through 2021.

There are certain people who think Jim Harbaugh’s tenure at Michigan has been a failure. Kirk Herbstreit is not one of those people. “I don’t look at it as a failure,” Herbstreit said on Tiki and Tierney. “You might say that he didn’t beat Ohio State, so it’s a failure.

After losing a pair of lottery picks – Jaren Jackson Jr. and Miles Bridges – in June’s NBA Draft, No. 11 Michigan State (3-1) is retooling with some experienced players, including juniors Nick Ward and Joshua Langford.

Alex Smith broke the tibia and fibula in his right leg in a loss to the Texans on Sunday – an injury eerily similar to the one Joe Theismann suffered in 1985. In fact, Smith’s injury occurred 33 years to the day after Theismann’s. Even weirder? The final score in both games was 23-21. Granted,...
