Prior to the draft there was a lot of discussion about the positional value of a safety, and some of that line of thinking might have pushed Caleb Downs out of the top five and into the waiting arms of the Dallas Cowboys. Austin Mock of The Athletic explained the issue prior to the draft: […]
One of the biggest questions coming out of the L.A. Rams draft was not who they drafted, but who they didn’t draft: The Rams did add a receiver in the sixth round, long after the league tends to stop finding starters, but where L.A. would have to turn for depth at the position next season […]
Arsenal certainly looked themselves again yesterday, as they thrashed Fulham 3-0. They are now back atop the table, six points clear of Manchester City, although that is misleading, given how they have played two more matches than the second place Cityzens. Arsenal won in a rout on Saturday, and they did so without the presence […] The post Arsenal Team News vs Atletico Madrid: Kai Havertz, Martin Odegaard, Jurrien Timber appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Sam Sarver scored his first MLS goal as FC Dallas beat the New York Red Bulls 2-0, snapping a four-game winless streak and earning the club’s first win in New York since 2006.
Waking up this morning was not a dream for Sixers fans, but it sure feels like that. Philadelphia’s perennially maligned basketball team vanquished the hated Celtics, mounted a 3-1 series comeback and pulled out yet another victory on the road in Boston. I can’t believe I typed out all of that, but here we are! […]
The red-hot St. Louis Cardinals will attempt to sweep away the Los Angeles Billionaires Dodgers at Busch Stadium on Sunday. In the most appropriate jersey number meets day on the calendar, Dustin May (#3) will start for St. Louis while the evil empire Dodgers will send Justin Wrobleski to the mound. First pitch scheduled for […]
Jannik Sinner beats Alexander Zverev 6‑1, 6‑2 in the Mutua Madrid Open final, becoming the first man to win five consecutive Masters 1000 titles.

The Cincinnati Reds turn to Chase Burns on Sunday in Pittsburgh as they attempt to salvage a game in their series against the Pirates, who have absolutely unloaded on them in the first two games of the series. Cincinnati starters Brady Singer and Rhett Lowder have been crushed in short starts so far this series, […]
Welp! An Atlanta Braves outfielder is going on the IL — just not the one who had apparently been close to making a trip to the IL for this past week. Instead of Michael Harris II taking that trip, it’ll be Ronald Acuña Jr. after he strained his left hamstring leaving the batter’s box during […]
Cooper Kim won the NCAA national title in the floor exercise, and the team event with Stanford. He now comes out publicly as gay.
Go Rays!
After yesterday’s win over the Nationals, the Brewers have now won three straight games. Right-hander Logan Henderson, Milwaukee’s No. 6 prospect, is on the bump today to try and make it four. Henderson, who has a 1.02 ERA in 17 2/3 innings with the Triple-A Nashville Sounds, was recalled earlier this morning. In a corresponding […]
Two things have proven true so far for the Cincinnati Reds in this weekend’s series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The first, of course, is that walks will haunt. Cincinnati pitchers walked seven straight batters in Saturday’s 17-7 drubbing by the Buccos, the strike zone simply as hard to find as ships in the Bermuda Triangle. […]
Here are your player ratings from Manchester United’s 3-2 win against Liverpool: Starters Senne Lammens – 4 Silly mistake, but it’ll be forgotten. Diogo Dalot – 5 Had a great chance towards the end, but never looked like scoring. Had some trouble against Ngumoha towards the end. Harry Maguire – 5 When Maguire is at […]
1918 The White Sox set their record for biggest win in team history, trouncing the Tigers by 16 runs, 19-3. With a 6-0 lead in the second inning, the visitors put the game away early. The club also set their record for most hits in a game, with 25. Buck Weaver paced the Pale Hose […]
With the Rutgers football spring practices now in the books, it is time to start looking at the positions on the team that are going to see a lot of new faces on the field next season. While the linebackers are returning two experienced starting-caliber talents and added one more in the transfer portal, several […]
A miserable road trip is about to come to an end. The San Francisco Giants are in Florida taking on the Tampa Bay Rays for some breakfast baseball (for us watching from the west coast, that is … it’s the less appealing and less alliterative lunch baseball where the game is), and they’re hoping to […]
Now that the dust has settled on the 2026 NFL Draft, the next major story-line for this off-season will be the release of this year’s schedule. It is always a time of year that is met with much anticipation for Bills fans, but there is certainly something a bit extra this year with the opening […]
Sounders settle for a point after scoring early.
The month of May has typically been kind to the Bronx Bombers in the Aaron Boone era. It’s early, but May 2026 has begun similarly. New York’s bats feasted on Orioles starting pitching the first two games of this series, grabbing five runs against both Cade Povich and Kyle Bradish. That’s typically a good formula […]
The Nationals hung around with the Brewers all afternoon yesterday, but in the end, just couldn’t get the bats going, losing game two of the series 4-1, with a Brady House first-inning fielding error, which led to 3 runs, being all the runs the Brew Crew needed. The Nats will now look to avoid a […]
Not all Dallas Cowboys fans are happy with the team’s current options at tight end, but Brian Schottenheimer doesn’t seem to agree. During a Saturday press conference at the team’s rookie minicamp, Dallas’ head coach praised the overall group while discussing some of the rookies participating in the current practices. Schottenheimer was asked about early […]
Apparently, when John Spytek identified the safety as a critical need for his team and said the 2026 NFL Draft class was very good and deep at the particular position, the Las Vegas Raiders general manager wasn’t fibbing. So much so, that the Silver & Black went to the Arizona Wildcats well twice in said […]
After scoring two goals in Game 2 of their first-round series to help the Boston Bruins to a win, Victor Arvidsson was forced out of the lineup for the final two games against the Buffalo Sabres in Boston's six-game series defeat. He's now revealed that he suffered two pretty tough injuries on the same play: a fractured rib and a punctured lung. Viktor Arvidsson dealt with a fractured rib and punctured lung that held him out of Games 5 and 6. Was trying to get back for Game 7. — Co...
The 2026 NFL Draft is just over a week in the rearview mirror, but for those of you who have been around Windy City Gridiron for long enough, you know how much of a sicko I can be when it comes to a good mock draft. Between my work here and my job at PFSN, […]
