Season 17, Episode 9 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning show, that was recorded Sunday night, Alex Kozora and I start by talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers getting DT Keeanu Benton signed to a four-year, $72 million contract extension a few days ago. Alex and I spend a […]
Sunderland were solid if not spectacular during the first Football League season since the end of World War II, and their final game before Christmas saw them maintain their mid-table position with a credible away win at Bolton Wanderers. The Burnden Park pitch required large quantities of sand to be spread to make it playable, […]
As the festive season approaches and the FA Women’s Championship prepares to pause for the Christmas break, Sunderland Women face a defining moment in their campaign. Today, they welcome Ipswich Town Women to Eppleton CW for what could be a season-shaping fixture — not just the final game of the calendar year, but a “six-pointer” […]
Strong Sunderland pressing sets the tone From the first five minutes, it was clear to see that Brighton were well drilled, with a quick pace and high-pressure pressing game. However, Sunderland responded well, passing around in intelligent triangles and allowing the home side very little time on the ball. One thing that’s been impressive this […]
The NFL social media accounts gave us a gift by sharing highlights of the final moments of regulation and overtime in the incredible Chicago Bears’ 22-16 win over the Green Bay Packers. I’ve already rewatched this, and I’ll probably rewatch it a few more times, so enjoy. The Bears just beat their biggest rival on […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Yes, I’m talking about conference play starting in college basketball. Nevada kicked off its Mountain West schedule hosting Boise State, and boy, did it deliver. There were 47 total fouls in this one, so to say the refs had a whistle fest is an understatement. Both benches […]
PHOENIX—Bad shooting nights are going to happen. But if rebounding and defense are still there, it’s manageable. Top-ranked Arizona tested that theory on Saturday night, stinking up the joint offensively for most of the evening yet still coming away with another lopsided victory thanks to its defense and work on the glass. Tobe Awaka and […]
In one throw — one moonshot into the north end zone — Caleb Williams erased decades of dread, heartbreak, and quarterback envy that have defined the Chicago Bears’ existence against the Green Bay Packers. Sure, it goes into the standings as one win. But let’s be honest: for an entire generation of Bears fans, it was the throw. The most important, cathartic, emotional, rivalry-rewriting throw most of us have ever seen. The Bears didn’t just beat the Packers 22-16 in overtime. They exorcise...
When Ime Udoka called the Rockets out for their embarrassing effort on defense in the overtime loss to New Orleans, it was a sure bet that the defensive effort would be anything but embarrassing. In fact, they responded by holding the highest scoring offense in the NBA to 40-percent shooting, and their lowest scoring output […]
If you’re anything like me, the sting from the Green Bay Packers’ overtime loss to the Chicago Bears hasn’t left at all. The team got no touchdowns in the red zone in five tries. They blew a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter. They scored just 16 points when they had 384 offensive yards and […]
For the second game in a row, the Portland Trail Blazers and Sacramento Kings played a close contest into the closing minutes of the fourth period. Thursday night’s affair went into overtime before Portland emerged with a single-point victory. Today the Blazers did slightly better. They scored far fewer points but the margin of victory […]
The Bears won the biggest regular-season football game since…2018?! What an ending. Sorry for the delay, I had to rewrite pretty much this entire post. Bear Down! Bears Instant Grades Offense QB Caleb Williams | A I had him at a C+, then the game-winner happened. That’s an A. What a throw. RB Kyle Monangai & D’Andre Swift | B They ran hard. I don’t think the Bears ran the ball as well or as much as they should have tonight, but I think both of them made plays wh...
Stop me if you’ve heard this before, Seattle Seahawks fans: The Green Bay Packers had a double digit lead on the road and only a couple of minutes remaining in the game. A score by the opponent made it a one possession game, but an onside kick was required to have a shot to win. […]

The Wolf Pack secured a well-earned point in a strong effort in Allentown on Saturday night.
As if the injury bug wasn’t biting badly enough, the Lakers were dealt another blow midway through Saturday’s game against the Clippers. After limping his way through the second quarter, Luka Dončić was ruled out of the game with a left leg contusion. As mentioned, Luka was visibly limping during the second quarter, though he […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers will be without T.J. Watt for the second consecutive game after he had to get surgery to repair a partially collapsed lung. The injury occurred at the team facility, and Watt was sent to a local Pittsburgh hospital after feeling discomfort. And with such a rare and frankly scary injury, Adam Schefter […]
There are many reasons to believe we will see a flurry of moves in the coming days. One is that the three major posted free agents coming from Japan will see their respective posting windows close within about two weeks, with Munetaka Murakami’s closing this upcoming Monday. There is a preference to finish business up […]
MLB Trade Rumors | Charlie Wright: How about a super-late Saturday night news dump? Just about half an hour before PSA’s news roundup was set to go live, Jon Heyman reported that the Yankees were bringing back pitcher Paul Blackburn, who they picked up off the scrap heap in August 2025 in a manner quite […]
Sunday’s sole Premier League fixture is a particularly mouthwatering one, as title contenders Aston Villa and top-four outsiders Manchester United collide in the West Midlands. The Lions are seeking a terrific 10th straight victory across all competitions this weekend, while the Red Devils endeavour to stretch their respectable unbeaten run to five games in the top flight. Man United […]
Coming off what can be gently described as one of the Maple Leafs’ more lifeless outings over the past decade in Washington, notable changes were made across the lineup ahead of this game in Nashville. The Leafs continued to play terrible hockey. All of Steven Lorentz, Max Domi, and Henry Thrun were healthy scratched, while […] The post Game Review: Lineup shuffle doesn’t do the trick, bigger changes needed after Maple Leafs’ latest loss in Nashville appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
With the Maple Leafs falling to 15th in the Eastern Conference in points percentage, captain Auston Matthews discussed a 5-3 loss to the Predators, the current mental state of the team, and whether his belief in the group has been challenged. On the team’s performance in Nashville: I thought we had a better process tonight, […] The post Auston Matthews after the Leafs’ loss in Nashville: “As sh*tty as it is losing, I thought the process was a lot better” appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstov...
The Virginia Tech Hokies survived an upset bid from the Elon Phoenix on Saturday, escaping with an 82-81 overtime victory. Already without senior forward Tobi Lawal, the Hokies learned before the game they’d be without freshman star Neoklis Avdalas (illness) and freshman big man Antonio Dorn (back). Elon took advantage, dominating the Hokies throughout the […]
Duke has never had an undefeated season in basketball and it’s not going to have one now as Texas Tech tagged the Blue Devils with their first loss of the season Saturday, 81-80. And Texas Tech totally deserved that win, too. The Red Raiders started off well, going up 9-0 before Duke pushed back. Nik […]
The Green Bay Packers botched the NFC Championship against the Seattle Seahawks almost 11 years ago. Saturday’s overtime loss to the Chicago Bears felt a lot like that. A dramatic comeback by the Bears ended with Caleb Williams finding DJ Moore for a game-winning 46-yard touchdown to retain their first-place spot in the NFC North, […]
