Uproar continues to grow over Multnomah County hiring a negotiator in the Portland Trail Blazers arena renovation fight who has a curious resume: Chair Jessica Vega Pederson disclosed Thursday that she had tapped former Trail Blazers executive Chris Oxley to represent the county as it worked with Portland officials on a framework aimed at keeping […]
Got a late start this morning and couldn’t throw together a full mauling. I’ll try to add links as my morning allows. For now, this should give you a place to start your Monday morning discussions. Ok I’m not going to have time to gather links, but here’s a Question of the Day What’s the […]
Happy International Break #3. Dortmund will be heading off to national duty this week in the final rounds of preparation before the 2026 World Cup. It’s a big break for European clubs, as these are the final two matchdays in the qualifiers before the World Cup draw. Here are some of the big matches to […]
Happy Monday, everyone. Go back fifteen years or so and it would be tough to imagine Alabama fans being frustrated after beating LSU by 11 points. It’s a different era though, and this is where we are. Issues with the running game and deep ball continue to dominate the conversation. “We’ve got to do a […]
In case you’re not familiar with the concept, the “knee jerk” reactions are essentially my thoughts over the last calendar month or so of Reading Football Club doing Reading Football Club-related things. The knee-jerk part has a tongue-in-cheek element to it, but even by my own standards, this piece is exceptionally late due to a […]
Bobby McMann trade chatter could start picking up in Toronto after fresh speculation from Sportsnet’s James Mirtle . The Toronto Maple Leafs winger has struggled to match last season’s 20-goal pace, and with his contract coming due, the team must decide if he is part of their long-term core or a useful trade asset while his value remains intact. In 16 games this season, the 29-year-old has recorded three goals and six points while posting 43 hits and 14:55 average time on ice. Last...
The Green Bay Packers face a massive test this evening on Monday Night Football, when the Philadelphia Eagles come into Lambeau Field for a critical NFC matchup. These two teams have become very familiar with each other over the last year-plus, and this prime time contest will have massive ripple effects across the conference. If […]
Meet the Mets As David Stearns gets ready to participate in the General Manager Meetings this week, the recently opted-out Edwin Diaz and Pete Alonso are the highest profile situations he has to deal with one way or another. During the upcoming awards week, Juan Soto is the only Met who can potentially win an […]
Well, I guess getting rid of the locker room Pop-A-Shot was the right call! On Sunday, the Miami Dolphins shocked the football watching world — defeating their AFC East division rivals, the Buffalo Bills, in dominating fashion by a score of 30-13. Miami’s offense trampled Buffalo’s defense. The Dolphins defense smothered the Bills’ offense. It […]
First the bad news: Seth Trimble broke a bone in his left forearm Sunday and is out indefinitely. He’s scheduled for surgery this week. We kind of admire him. He’s stuck it out, worked hard, and gone through the Hubert roller coaster ride without complaining. We also like his entrepreneurial spirit. It’s a shame this […]
Ahead of this year’s training camp, New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel explained that he was looking at his team’s performances in three distinct categories. There is the good, the bad, and, as he called it, the s—t that gets you beat. Sunday’s 28-23 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers saw plenty of all […]
Last week, the Detroit Lions were barely clinging to the final playoff spot in the NFC race. This week, after pulverizing the Washington Commanders and regaining their mojo on offense, they could very well finish the week in the NFC North’s top spot. But that doesn’t mean a very tight and competitive playoff race isn’t […]
This week on Corn Nation Overreaction, Greg, Hoss, and Jake discuss Nebraska’s win over the UCLA Bruins at one of the most hallowed stadiums in all of college football, the Rose Bowl. The Huskers led bell to bell and, get this, actually scored a touchdown in the third quarter. It would prove to be the […]
Sportsnet’s Alex Adams thinks there’s a path for the Ottawa Senators and Pittsburgh Penguins to become trade partners if timing breaks right. Ottawa is aggressively looking to add another winger and a right-shot defenseman, but with no first-round pick and a thin prospect pool beyond Carter Yakemchuk and Logan Hensler, a trade built around roster players makes the most sense. Why Ottawa’s Needs Match Pittsburgh’s Potential Surplus Adams notes the Senators want immediate help in the t...
Things went just about as expected over the weekend with Purdue men’s basketball taking down Oakland and Purdue football losing to the visiting Ohio State Buckeyes. It’s what we expected, but did it happen how we expected? Well, on the football side of things it was about as predicted. On the basketball side? Not at […]
1948 New White Sox GM Frank “Trader” Lane made his first deal, and it was a beauty. Lane traded backup catcher Aaron Robinson to the Tigers for a young, left-handed pitcher named Billy Pierce and $10,000. Pierce would become arguably the finest lefthander in White Sox history. He won 186 games in a Sox uniform with two 20-win seasons, seven All-Star selections […]
Going into this week for the Los Angeles Rams, it was a big deal who they would go with at their kicking position, and they went with Harrison Mevis over Joshua Karty and Mevis responded by going a perfect 6-6 on extra points. No drama at the kicking position for the Rams on Sunday, so […]

When previewing Sunday afternoon’s top-25 showdown between No. 9 NC State and No. 18 USC, I suggested, albeit somewhat skeptically, that “it would be encouraging if freshman Jazzy Davidson had a star-making afternoon.” Well, the Trojans shouldn’t just be encouraged. They should be ecstatic. Davidson delivered—and then some. The freshman sparked the upset victory for […]
When I looked at the trade value of both Nolan Arenado and Sonny Gray, I said I may return to them, but look at potential bad contract swaps. After researching the potential swaps…. I would be pretty surprised if this happens. There really aren’t many potential swaps. Which makes sense if you really think about […]
Braves Franchise History 1964 – The Braves sign a 25-year lease to play in the new Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. 1998 – The Atlanta Braves trade pitchers Denny Neagle and Rob Bell and outfielder Michael Tucker to the Cincinnati Reds for second baseman Bret Boone and Mike Remlinger. 2004 – Bobby Cox is named Manager of […]

As players were entering the 2025 PWHL Draft, it looked like the Montreal Victoire were entering the season with the same leadership core they had for their first two seasons. Expansion took a toll on all six existing teams, but Montreal was able to keep their three foundational players (Ann-Renée Desbiens, Marie-Philip Poulin, and Laura Stacey) plus the rest of their original leadership group of Kristin O’Neill, Kati Tabin, and Erin Ambrose. By the end of the night, O’Neill was traded to...
