But -- in this case -- Goodell had a surprisingly refreshing stance on a hotly debated topic. Goodell joined Mike Golic and Trey Wingo Tuesday on ESPN's "Golic and Wingo Show" to talk about this Sunday's Super Bowl matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and…

People on the Right are flying high after President Trump’s first State of the Union address Tuesday night. One of the biggest issues heading into Trump’s 2016 election was the economy. So how does Trump’s first year stack up to the previous couple of years? Let’s take a look.

Luis, Luis -- oh no -- why did you go? And I don't want to hear any excuses, young man! Oh, wait. There's an excuse? Alright, let's hear it. During Tuesday night's State of the Union address, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) walked out of the Capitol chambers while a "U.S.A" chant broke out among those who attended the speech. Both sides of aisle gave President Trump a standing ovation for his…

When you act like a petulant child, don't be surprised when the Twitterverse puts "Baby" in the corner. Crypt Keeper-esque Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) put on one of the most embarrassing and telling performances during a State of the Union address in recent memory.

Ahead of President Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night, one NFL player — who stands for the national anthem — tried to unite people by a common thread that shouldn’t even be a debate…our military veterans. Baltimore Ravens tight end Benjamin Watson took to Twitter a couple hours before Trump’s speech, making a declarative statement that only a fool — or an anarchist — would oppose…

While the phrase “love it or leave it” is a bit of cliche in the argument against people who disrespect our country, it might be the most appropriate response in this case. Tricking people into continually stepping on one of our country’s greatest symbols is tantamount to treason. Florida art professor Lisa Rockford is displaying what she calls art, and one Marine Corps veteran wasn’t too…

Salcido was caught on video saying many derogatory things about members of the U.S. military. The student who ended up filming his hate-filled rhetoric -- and subsequently posted…

You may disagree with the president. You may not. But, one thing is for sure: if you get invited to go to the White House and meet the president, you put aside your petty differences and represent who is paying you in the classiest way possible. As we all know, the perennially wounded extends to professional athletes as we’ve seen through players taking a knee during the national anthem, among…
