It’s a rare feat to get outshot 37-15 while starting with the puck 72% of the time off the faceoffs, but the Maple Leafs managed to do it against the Kings on Thursday night. It can’t be overlooked that the Leafs didn’t have their 1C or best defenseman against a fully healthy Kings team.

“We started extremely slowly. We had a couple of long bus rides. I’m going to take some responsibility for that as far as the rest-to-work ratio.

The second half of the 2025 season starts with the Eagles soaring above their rivals in the NFC East.

Overview Voting Overview 2025 Review: There’s really not much to say about Tristin English’s 2025 season, especially when it was only seven games and 24 plate appearances. Even though his stats aren’t good at all, I wouldn’t even call his season a failure. After six long years grinding in the minors, including a 2024 season […]
Coming off an embarrassing 30-13 loss at the hands of the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills are in need of a bounce-back game in the worst way. Given that their opponent, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, are among the NFC’s top teams this season, it doesn’t seem like the ideal scenario for said bounce-back game to […]
The Chicago Bears have been rolling since week 3, winning 6 of 7 games, but they got off to a bumpy start to the season when they dropped their first two games. One of those games was against the Minnesota Vikings. We don’t need to revisit how poorly that fourth quarter went, but the Bears […]

Here we go again. The Miami Hurricanes were the highest ranked ACC team in the second CFP rankings. The fanbase (at least most of it) has now been sucked back into this season and the possibility of playing in the 12-team playoff for the first time. And for that, we must root accordingly! Week 12 […]

“In the short run, you get what you get; in the long run, you get what you deserve, and you aren’t going to get anything if you quit.” This quote by Nevada head coach Jeff Choate earlier this week lingered around. There’s no question that this season for Wolf Pack football has been a bust, […]
