EA is not seeing the same year-over-year revenue gains from microtransactions that it once did, and it is coming off its worst Q1 in live services (the category in-game purchases fall under) since 2022.

New day, new CFTC drama.

After Bloomberg reported acting chair Caroline D. Pham removed the HR person investigating her for misconduct, the agency has gone scorched earth in its response.

We've reached a point where writers covering multiple sports assume no one knows SGA when it's probably just them not following the NBA closely.

Like...what is this? I don't know a single NBA fan who isn't well aware of him. He just played in the NBA Cup final!

Manchester City, Puma and DeepObjects have announced a venture that lets fans create AI-generated kits, with the "best" one becoming the 2026-2027 official third kit.

I'm sure this is going to go well for them and everyone will take it seriously.

Horrendous jersey color contrast in Hornets vs. Bucks. Straight to jail for the decision maker.

NEWS: Adidas president of women's basketball ops Candace Parker helped sign top 2027 prospect Kaleena Smith to represent the brand.

Lately, companies are betting big on high school prospects, hoping to secure fruitful long-term partnerships. Nike's ties to JuJu Watkins since HS are a good template.
