On his last night as an Oriole, about ten players pulled up chairs around Ryan O’Hearn’s locker at Camden Yards. They all knew what was coming: the trade deadline was hours away, and their teammate was about to be dealt. So they sat, talked shop, and said their goodbyes to a player who’d become a […]

Let's talk about it.
After a Tuesday of bad news the Bulldogs began Wednesday with something more positive. Paulding County offensive lineman Tyreek Jemison became the first player of the day not publicly committed to the Bulldogs to announce that he’ll be coming to Athens. The 6’5, 315 pounder, rated the #13 interior lineman in the nation by 247Sports, […]
The depth on the Montreal Canadiens ' blueline continues to mount. And with it, the possibility of a trade from that depth to address their need in the top-six. A report from Habs insider Marco D'Amico in rg.org indicates that while teams have been calling GM Kent Hughes on Kaiden Guhle, he has no intention whatsoever of trading the currently-injured d-man. Rival GMs "have been met with an immediate denial." The combination of physicality and defensive awareness that he brings to their b...
After the expectation that rookie running back Omarion Hampton would make his return to the lineup following the Week 12 bye, he was a late scratch at the end of the week following a week full of being limited in practice. While fans may have been bummed out about that decision, the Chargers did not […]
If you stayed up late enough to watch all the way to the end of an extended shootout that ended just a few minutes before midnight, you were treated to an outstanding hockey game . That was a Vegas team with Stanley Cup aspirations and the game was played at a playoff level. Spencer Knight and Carter Hart were both spectacular in net. Connor Bedard put on a show. It’s an absolute shame the Blackhawks didn’t walk away with two points, but that was a great game to watch. With two points l...
The feeling that’s now creeping in? We haven’t had it for a really long time. It’s uncomfortable. And it’s getting harder and harder to ignore. It’s the feeling of doubt. For years, the Kansas City Chiefs have been surrounded by a feeling of inevitability. It started in 2019. Everything about it was so new… so […]
We will have updates through the day as recruits sign their Letters of Intent. With posts coming fast and furious, I’m posing an open thread for conversations on all things signing day. This post will stay tagged to the main page through the day for easier navigation. Go Dawgs!
The Philadelphia Flyers might be a dark horse candidate to be fairly active around the trade market in the middle of this season as they try to keep a competitive roster on the ice while also keeping one foot committed to focusing on developing the young talent they have. Basically, they’re going to keep on trying to figure out what the team they hope will regularly compete for the playoffs, will look like. And some of that could include trying to pry some experienced players off the rott...
The Huskies have secured a commitment from 3 star wide receiver Blaise Lavista out of Lincoln Way East high school in Frankfort, Illinois! Lavista was offered by schools such as Akron, Central Michigan, Coastal Carolina and Kent State, among others, before ultimately choosing the Huskies. He is the 149th ranked receiver in the country and […]

The volume at which I said “NOPE” when my son asked if today was going to be another snow day … it was loud. Giddy, almost. My apologies, son. As always, significant contract deferrals make the calculations a little complicated, but the main point is that the headline number on deals like Dylan Cease’s isn’t the real number for us to conceive of the price of a contract: Clarification: The luxury-tax calculation uses a different discount rate for deferred compensation. The annual ...
1957 After just two seasons on the South Side (7.1 WAR, 38 homers, 181 RBI, 127 OPS+), outfielder Larry Doby was dealt to Baltimore in a seven-player blockbuster. Sent east along with Doby were starting pitcher Jack Harshman, minor league hurler Russ Heman and young slugger Jim Marshall. In return from the Orioles, the White […]

It’s definitely getting colder but, fortunately, we always have football to warm the cockles. Except… we didn’t really have much football in November, did we? We somehow conspired to only have four – count ‘em, four – actual football matches in all 30 days of last month. Can you remember such a sparse fixture schedule […]
I have to ask these questions before we start this week. Is Canada some sort of fantasy land where people just say things and expect it to come to fruition? Do Canadian NHL front offices, media, and fanbases think all of the teams, fanbases, and media of teams from ‘The States” or “Down South” were […]
Meet the Mets The Mets aren’t done with their bullpen, continuing to pursue Edwin Díaz despite the addition of Devin Williams. But the eventual judgement on the Williams signing will be dependent on what Stearns does in relation to Díaz, writes John Harper. MLB Pipeline identified the teams with the prospects to swing a big […]
The Miami Dolphins have won three straight games, and four out of their last five to bring their record to 5-7 on the season after starting a discouraging 1-5. However, against a team led by a rookie quarterback in Tyler Shough, a second-year 7th round wide receiver in Devaughn Vele, and a rookie sixth round […]
You can exhale now. You’d be forgiven for thinking Barcelona wasn’t going to hold on against Atlético Madrid. This continues to be a makeshift team who is struggling to find consistency and to form an identity. The good news. Raphinha and Pedri are back, and they made all the difference as the Blaugrana stormed back from […]
11 years ago today. The Blue Jays traded J.A. Happ to the Mariners for Michael Saunders. Happ had been with the Blue Jays for 2.5 seasons since he came over in a big trade with the Astros. We sent Francisco Cordero, Ben Francisco, Joe Musgrove, Carlos Perez, David Rollins, Asher Wojciechowski, and Kevin Comer to […]
