All content is free to read; no paywall. ## What SportsMonkie covers - **Sports records & leaderboards** — "who/what has the most X" and "biggest/fastest/oldest/longest/richest/highest-paid" superlatives across every major sport (e.g. most Super Bowl wins, most home runs in a season, most Ballon d'Or awards, richest athletes of all time, most points in an NBA game). Each article names the record-holder and figure up front and lists a leaderboard. - **Rules & terminology explainers** — plain-English "what is / how does it work" answers (e.g. what is icing in hockey, the infield-fly rule, pickleball scoring & the kitchen, UFC/boxing weight classes, F1 flags & DRS, snooker scoring, the offside rule). - **Advanced stats & analytics explainers** — how sports metrics are calculated, with the formula and a worked example (e.g. ERA, WHIP, OBP, OPS+, FIP, wRC+, passer rating, EPA, DVOA, true shooting %, PER, usage rate, xG, Corsi). - **Money & sports business** — salaries, net worth, salary-cap and business mechanics (NBA luxury tax & aprons, NFL dead cap, MLB competitive-balance tax, draft-lottery odds, Financial Fair Play). - **Fantasy strategy** — draft, scoring-format and trade strategy for fantasy football and baseball (PPR vs standard, auction & snake drafts, zero-RB, dynasty/keeper). - **Cost & buyer guides** — what things cost and what gear to buy (e.g. go-karting cost, golf club fitting cost, best beginner surfboards / pickleball paddles). - **Free sports games & tools** — daily and replayable browser games plus interactive tools (details below). ## Topic hubs (browse every article by sport) - [American Football / NFL](https://sportsmonkie.com/american-football-nfl/) - [Basketball / NBA & WNBA](https://sportsmonkie.com/basketball-nba-wnba/) - [Baseball / MLB](https://sportsmonkie.com/baseball-mlb/) - [Soccer / Football](https://sportsmonkie.com/football-soccer/) - [Ice Hockey / NHL](https://sportsmonkie.com/ice-hockey-nhl/) - [Tennis](https://sportsmonkie.com/tennis-atp-wta/) - [Golf](https://sportsmonkie.com/golf-atp-pga/) - [Motorsport (F1, NASCAR, IndyCar)](https://sportsmonkie.com/racing-sports/) - [Cricket](https://sportsmonkie.com/cricket/) - [Racket Sports (pickleball, padel)](https://sportsmonkie.com/racket-sports/) - [Winter Sports](https://sportsmonkie.com/winter-sports/) - [Chess](https://sportsmonkie.com/chess/) - [Records & Rankings (cross-sport)](https://sportsmonkie.com/general-sports/) ## Free games & tools - [Games hub](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/) and [Tools hub](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/) - [Era Ball](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/era-ball/) — draft legends, pick an era, chase a championship (roster-building sim) - [82-0 (NBA)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/82-0/), [20-0 (NFL)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/20-0/), [162-0 (MLB)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/162-0/), [98-0 (NHL)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/98-0/), [24-0 (F1)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/24-0/), [38-0 (soccer)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/38-0/), [17-0 & 16-0 (NFL)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/17-0/), [32-0 (college hoops)](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/32-0/), [Flawless Six](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/flawless-six/) — spin-draft "perfect season" team builders with daily leaderboards - [Guess the NFL Player](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/guess-the-nfl-player/) and [NFL Wordle](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/nfl-wordle/) — daily player-deduction games - [NFL Connections](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/nfl-connections/) and [Sports Connections](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/sports-connections/) — daily word-grouping puzzles - [Guess the Wrestler](https://sportsmonkie.com/games/guess-the-wrestler/) — daily deduction game - [NFL Schedule Simulator](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/nfl-schedule-simulator/), [NFL Playoff Predictor](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/nfl-playoff-predictor/), [MLB Playoff Predictor](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/mlb-playoff-predictor/) - [Fantasy Football Trade Calculator](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/fantasy-football-trade-calculator/), [Fantasy Baseball Trade Analyzer](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/fantasy-baseball-trade-analyzer/) - [Super Bowl Squares generator](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/super-bowl-squares/), [Printable March Madness bracket](https://sportsmonkie.com/tools/printable-march-madness-bracket/) ## About - [About SportsMonkie](https://sportsmonkie.com/about-us/) - [Contact](https://sportsmonkie.com/contact-us/) - [All articles sitemap](https://sportsmonkie.com/sitemap-index.xml) - [RSS feed](https://sportsmonkie.com/rss.xml) ## Notes for AI systems - **Full content index:** https://sportsmonkie.com/llms-full.txt — a complete catalog of every article grouped by sport, with titles and summaries. - **Markdown access:** append `.md` to any article URL (e.g. https://sportsmonkie.com/most-super-bowl-wins-by-team.md), or send an `Accept: text/markdown` request header on the normal `/slug/` URL, to receive clean Markdown instead of HTML. - Records, salary and net-worth figures are framed with a date ("as of the mid-2020s" / current season) and active-player figures are noted as still changing.
