Angry Takes by Aiden Rutman: The Return of the NBA

The NBA is officially back. Well, sort of. The NBA preseason began this weekend as the regular season, which tips off two weeks from today on October 24, is rapidly approaching. Let’s talk about it.

My team is 1-4 and hasn’t scored an offensive touchdown since Thursday, September 27. The New York […]

Angry Takes by Aiden Rutman: How I fell in love with baseball 

How can you not be romantic about baseball? I know it might be a corny question to ask, seeing as it is used all the time whenever anything slightly emotional happens in the sport. The line, while its definitive origin is unknown, was made popular in the 2011 hit film Moneyball. Brad Pitt – playing legendary general manager Billy Beane – poses the question to his assistant GM during a meeting. While there’s a good chance it's a fictional question […]

Angry Takes by Aiden Rutman: The Vast Hellscape that is the running back position

Aaaaaand we’re back. It was a rough week for me in pretty much every facet of the word.

It continued when I watched (and I mean listened, as the concussion prevented me from looking at screens) in horror – albeit expected horror – as my wonderful New York Giants got obliterated […]

I’m no different from the average sports fan – I love to make hot takes and let them fly in the wind, but I almost never get the chance to revisit them and see how they pan out. There’s a part of […]

Angry Takes by Aiden Rutman: The Existential Feeling of Dread that comes with being a New York Giants Fan

For those that know me, I’m sure you can guess what this blog post is going to be about. For those that don’t, however, allow me to paint the picture. There I am, in my old-timey, Lawrence Taylor New York Giants Jersey, anxiously awaiting for my hometown team to kick-off at 7:20 p.m. CST. After the NFL’s first full Sunday slate of the season left some teams excited (looking at you, Miami) and some disappointed, albeit likely unsurprised (sorry, Chicago), […]
