Most fantasy managers know how it feels to lose a matchup thanks to a big spike week from a fantasy defense, so let's be on the right side of those performances in 2026! We're here to help you right out of the gate with our updated Week 1 fantasy football team defense rankings for 2026. In […]
One of the most exciting elements of the Sixers’ hot start that’s seen them vault up the Eastern Conference standings has been the fact that they’ve done so shorthanded. Joel Embiid has been on a fairly tight minutes limit, Jared McCain has hardly seen the floor at all, and Paul George has yet to suit […]
The New England Patriots were under some pressure entering their Week 10 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. On Thursday, the Denver Broncos opened the week with a victory to improve to 8-2 on the season. Earlier on Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts celebrated a win in Germany to tie their record and reclaim the top […]
In the months leading up to the season, every article, tweet, or conversation about the Ohio State men’s basketball team began with how the Buckeyes were able to retain Bruce Thornton, John Mobley, and Devin Royal. Bringing back a combined 44.4 points per game of production from three starters isn’t easy to do in today’s […]
The Celtics spent a taxing three-day weekend in Orlando. It began with a return to NBA Cup play, where the Celtics watched a fourth-quarter lead unravel into a nightmarish 26-14 Magic run on Friday night. Boston chalked up the defeat — and its late-game Jenga tower collapse — to “growing pains” and a steep “learning […]
An early preview of the PWHL USA teams, but as a podcast!
Disappointing starts to the season have been an annual tradition in Oil Country over the past few years. The 2025-26 Edmonton Oilers are continuing the trend, sporting an underwhelming 6-6-4 record through 16 games. Edmonton is no stranger to poor finishing, goaltending issues, and defensive mistakes in the first handful of games. Still, there are…
The Miami Dolphins traded away a star in Jaelan Phillips, but they're already proving that they don't need him.
Entering the year, it seemed as though time was rapidly running out for Brett Baty. The 25-year-old had not lived up to his potential since making his major league debut in 2022, and last season saw him being firmly supplanted by Mark Vientos as the Mets’ top third base option. Another mediocre season would likely […]
The Detroit Lions are back to their blowout ways after a big win over the Washington Commanders. Not only was it a return to form for the team, but it was yet another example of why the Lions have something special in Dan Campbell. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Here are my positional grades […]
After losing their Thursday Night Football matchup with the Denver Broncos, the Las Vegas Raiders were on a mini bye week this weekend, and Sunday was kind to the Raiders when it comes to their spot in the 2026 NFL draft order. The New York Jets and New Orleans Saints both managed to get their […]
Week eleven saw another shift in the standings for the Mountain West with Hawaii’s dominating victory over San Diego State. We also saw UNLV get back on track with a convincing win over Colorado State. Both of those games saw some electric performances; let’s highlight those and take a look at some other great performances […]
The Arizona Fall League kicked off the final week of the 2025 season with their All-Star game, the Fall Stars Game, and the American League was victorious by a 5-4 score on Sunday. The Tigers prospects were involved, but neither Kevin McGonigle nor Max Anderson did a whole lot. A pop-up and a strike out […]
It’s never easy to watch the other team go bombs away, especially when a healthier clip of them are going in that might normally. That was the case for Missouri as they saw VMI connect on 9 of 22 three points in the first half, en route to the Keydets only being down 10 points. […]
As much as Manchester City were the better side over 90 minutes against Liverpool on Sunday afternoon in an eventual 3-0 victory, it’s easy to imagine a scenario where Virgil van Dijk’s headed goal in the first half could well have changed things given the Reds were down just a goal at the time and […]
The New Orleans Saints got their second win of the season over NFC South divisional rival Carolina Panthers. There were plenty of positives to come for the black and gold’s 17-7 win, but these players stood out. Up: Tyler Shough Whew, it’s been a while since we’ve seen quarterback play like that for the Saints. […]
For the third straight season, the Bears will be a playoff team. The thrilling 49-47 victory over Western Carolina in Cullowhee last Saturday gave Mercer its second consecutive SoCon championship and automatic bid into the FCS postseason. Until 2023, the program had never seen a playoff game. Now? They’ll be getting ready to host one […]
The Los Angeles Rams avenged their Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in a big way in Week 10. After losing to the 49ers in overtime, the Rams controlled this meeting from start to finish, winning 42-26. The 16-point win against the 49ers ties their largest margin of victory in this rivalry during […]
In Mariners news… Around the league…
As you’ll recall, Cleveland Guardians pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz were placed on administrative leave by Major League Baseball last July while the league investigated charges that the two had rigged pitches as part of a gambling scheme. In fact, Ortiz was pulled from a planned start against the Cubs at Wrigley Field July […]
Welcome to the 2025 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2025. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). […]
Ryan Bergert didn’t spend a ton of time with Kansas City in 2025, he only made eight starts for Kansas City after they acquired him at the trade deadline alongside Stephen Kolek (review for him coming soon!) for fan-favorite backup catcher Freddy Fermin. And, if you just looked at the raw numbers, you might not […]
I know we’re past the “spooky season,” but the Seattle Seahawks are scary good right now. They used an early explosion on both offense and defense to put the Arizona Cardinals on ice in the first quarter. Particularly, the combination of a blitzing Tyrice Knight forcing fumbles, and hoover-like hands of DeMarcus Lawrence scooping the […]
The Syracuse Orange are off to a perfect start after taking care of business in its first two non-con games at home, coming away with a 38-point victory over Binghamton and 40-point win over Delaware State most recently. With the new season fully underway, it’s time to check in on if the numbers are feeling […]
The Blackhawks are off to their best start through 16 games (8-5-3) since 2016. No, I’m not going to sugarcoat the first 16 games to say this team is a Stanley Cup contender like they were in 2016. But the fact that their record is what it is at this point is far better than most even optimistic analysts thought it would be entering the second full week in November. I love this quote from Blackhawks head coach Jeff Blashill after the game because it’s both self aware and blunt. And it spe...
You damn number crunchers in Las Vegas are trying to take Ole Miss fans out right now. FanDuel Sportsbook opened its odds with Ole Miss -13.5 on Sunday, and it immediately got bet up to -15.5 as money flooded in for the Rebels (9-1, 5-1 SEC) over the Florida Gators (3-6, 2-4 SEC). The Rebels […]
