Fiifi Frimpong: WNBPA has its eyes on questionable prizes in CBA fight Months ago, the same players standing steadfast to fight for what’s there’s would balk at the WNBA’s current offer

The players are trying to fight a good fight, seeking a massive improvement to their unimaginably one-sided collective bargaining agreement. Public sentiment is largely on their side.

But with the WNBA holding firm and time running out, it sounds like the players are folding ...

Last week, a Daily News reader wrote to one of The News' oldest institutions -- the Voice of the People -- to express his dismay over Alden's decision to lay off nearly a third of our staff.

Orders from management were "don't print it"

USWNT midfielder Sam Coffey says team has ‘responsibility’ to speak out about social issues Coffey said while it was easier as a younger player to look to older players, it's time for current players to advocate for change.

Mike Lupica: Upcoming stretch will give us a sense if these Knicks are built better A year ago at this point in the season, the Knicks had a record of 40-20. Knicks fans know the rest of it the way they know how to get to Penn Station.

As of right now — and despite a mostly positive stretch this past month — it’s difficult to make the case that the Knicks under Mike Brown are better than last year's team.

Will Giants ownership ignore players’ failing D+ grade for Joe Schoen? Now we know the reason the Giants retained Joe Schoen in his reduced role: They’re giving him extra credit homework to bump himself up to a passing grade.

The Giants’ players dropped the hammer of truth by giving GM Joe Schoen a “D+” grade in this year’s NFL Players’ Association report cards.

For the second straight day, the @nytimes.com writes about the stylistic decisions of the Daily News, but still no coverage or mention of the layoffs that slashed a quarter of our staff this month.

What the @nytimes.com fails to mention (again) is that the reason for the font change (which extends beyond the wood - aka "page 1" - to the entirety of the paper) is Alden Capital's decision to lay off our entire print production staff.

Jets likely to prioritize edge rusher, hold prime draft position at No. 2 overall Adding an edge rusher this offseason was already a priority for the Jets. But following Thursday’s trade, it becomes more vital for them.

Yankees to be ‘aggressive’ with ABS challenges: ‘We want to be the best at it’ If Tuesday was a sign of things to come, the Yankees are going to be fairly successful when using MLB’s automated ball-strike challenge system this season.

After a barrage of ABS disputes in Tuesday's spring game, Aaron Boone said the #Yankees want to be "aggressive" with their challenges. They also "want to be the best at it."

"We’ve been preaching around here long enough about controlling the strike zone."

Very cool to experience the sun going down over the slopes yesterday at Thunder Ridge and then enjoy some night skiing. “Life is a Mountain” …

Jessie Diggins finishes 5th in her final Olympic race — the first women's 50km at the Olympics.
It's a race she helped push for after decades where the men raced 50km and the women only got to do 30km.
No medal today, but a huge victory.

This US-Canada men’s game is an absolute thrillfest so far, and NHL player involvement was always the natural evolution … but I do miss the days when the Olympic team spent months together and traveled the country in a pre-Olympic tour. Seeing DU play Team USA at the old barn on campus.

Everyone remembers the classic @nydailynews.com cover from the Miracle on Ice, but here is a look at one of the interior spreads from that newspaper.

Yankees’ Gerrit Cole has no interest in accelerating rehab after hard-throwing live BP session Gerrit Cole said that he was “a little surprised” that he threw as hard as he did, though he noted that he’s pretty built up.

“It’s great to feel great, but I don’t think it makes me want to accelerate," Gerrit Cole said of his rehab after facing live hitters — and nearly throwing 97 mph — for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery. #Yankees

I've been judging a national sports writing competition. Two things really stand out:
1. There is just an incredible amount of high-quality sports journalism being produced around the country.
2. As an industry, we have completely FAILED in how we deliver these stories to our readers.

How the 2026 Olympics turned into tales of triumph by U.S. women While Lindsey Vonn’s jarring injury set an ominous tone, these Olympics have overwhelmingly become one of triumph for the American women.

For the U.S. women, the Milano Cortina Olympics got off to a devastating start.

But while Vonn’s jarring injury set an ominous tone, these Olympics have overwhelmingly become one of triumph for the American women.
