Brandon ShimadaPublished 2 months ago in UnbalancedIs Kyle Shanahan a Failure?
In what was, undoubtedly, the best Super Bowl ever played, the San Francisco 49ers lost, 25-22, in the final seconds of overtime to the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs. With that, the Niners came up brutally short of that elusive sixth Super Bowl championship yet again, and it has officially been 29 years since their last win at Super Bowl XXIX. There hasn't really been much to blame, but one person is definitely on the receiving end of the scrutiny: Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan.

WOW! What a game!! So the results of this year's Conference Championships left a bad taste in the mouths of a lot of fans. They wanted the Baltimore Ravens and the Detroit Lions, because many figured that this was Baltimore's best chance, and they wanted that heartwarming story of the Lions reaching the Super Bowl for the first time ever. Instead, we got the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, which caused a lot of grumbling, but regardless, we were in for an interesting contest. For the Chiefs, they were looking to continue ruling as the NFL's current empire, while the Niners were looking for payback and that elusive sixth ring.

Rich MonettiPublished 2 months ago in UnbalancedFootball Reigns Supreme in the Sports Business…But for How Long?
Introduction The Super Bowl is almost, in effect, a national holiday today! The National Football League (NFL) reigns supreme in terms of every metric in the world of sports, from television audiences to revenue! The biggest NFL stars - from Patrick Mahomes to a guy who happens to be dating Taylor Swift (Travis Kelce) are not just football stars, but they are major celebrities and media powers today. But today, college football is also a huge revenue-producing machine, with its huge TV ratings, intense fan interest and support, and yes, with “student-athletes” today able to earn money for themselves - big money in many instances - from NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) deals. And even high school football is getting into the act, with nationally televised games on ESPN and high school athletes having their own NIL deals before they ever set foot on a college campus.

Christopher Ryan-LillPublished 2 months ago in UnbalancedA Look at the Nine Current Minority Coaches in the NFL
Two years ago, I wrote a story about how the NFL has a diversity problem, and boy, did that. At one point after the 2021 regular season, the firing of David Culley and Brian Flores as head coaches left Mike Tomlin, the longtime stalwart, as the only Black head coach in the NFL for a very brief while. Counting Ron Rivera and Robert Saleh, that totaled three coaches of color out of 32. Not even one-eighth of the league at that time.
