    7 months, 2 weeks ago

    It’s Friday, and I don’t mean to get all serious on you with the weekend looming, but science is a pretty cool thing. It’s even cooler when it’s applied to sports, which means I’m of the opinion that ESPN’s Sports Science feature is pretty cool. That sounded more like math, I know. Anyway, Matt Ryan’s [...]

    It was a crucial time during Monday night’s game when offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter called his top three wide receivers — Roddy White, Julio Jones and Harry Douglas — off the field.
