As sports media embraces sports betting, even the appearance of compromised editorial independence should worry fans, @AdamMinter says bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Olivia Miles is one of the WNBA’s brightest young stars, but unlike players of earlier generations, she can focus on proving herself rather than proving the viability of the league, writes @AdamMinter (via @opinion) bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Olivia Miles is the WNBA's Rookie of the Year. Today for @opinion I argue that she's also a new kind of superstar, for a new kind of era in women's sports. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Republicans have repeatedly picked fights with the NFL — which makes it even more striking that the party is now buying so much ad time during football games, says @AdamMinter (via @opinion) bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
For every youth sports parent who's ever been "required" to stay at a hotel (or your child is out of the tourney), this @opinion column is for you.
A lawsuit filed by parents against Black Bear Sports Group highlights an unfair ultimatum facing kids who participate in youth sports, says @AdamMinter bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Roger Goodell has made football less convenient and affordable to follow, but fans usually complain and then pay the price, says @AdamMinter. The NFL shouldn’t assume their patience is limitless bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Just learned that the great Cassandra Wilson passed last week. Giovanni Russonello has a wonderful appraisal of her work. nytimes.com/2026/09/04/arts/…
Why have women been champions for decades in elite drag racing? In my first-ever video for @opinion I spent some time with @MaddiGordon_TF , the sport's newest star, to learn why. bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…

Kawhi Leonard and Steve Ballmer can absorb fines and suspensions, says @AdamMinter. But stripping five first-round picks through 2033 makes fans, media partners and other Clippers players pay a price too (via @opinion) bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

New Mexico State cut a multisport jersey ad deal for $350,000 a year. Ohio State has one for nearly $17 million. The rich get richer, @AdamMinter says bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Every time I am tempted to lose faith in the power of optimism, I remember that every week, some hardy soul thinks "She has been writing for 25 years, and I am going to be the first person to email her this devastatingly scatalogical insult", and I am refreshed.
The new study of CTE in NFL players that the NYT is blasting does *not* claim that "At Least 1 in 4 N.F.L. Players Gets Brain Disease." nytimes.com/2026/08/25/us/nf…
What it claims is that, among former NFL players who died 2016–21, at least 24.5% are known to have had CTE at death. That's a shocking conclusion. bmj.com/content/394/bmj-2026…
