Merry NFL Christmas, everybody! We have finally reached the 2026 NFL Draft, where a group of young men will realize their dreams by hearing their names called from the podium and become members of the best professional football league on the planet. As we do every year, we will be tracking everything that the Minnesota […]
As Sunderland embarked on a heavyweight and dizzying pre-Premier League squad overhaul during the summer of 2025, is it fair to say that the addition of the experienced Bertrand Traoré for a fee that, comparatively speaking, felt like an absolute drop in the ocean alongside the sums of money we spent elsewhere perhaps didn’t feel […]
Ben McKevitt says… Arsenal’s home defeat to Manchester United has left us as the only team left unbeaten at home and we’re all hoping for a huge response to ensure the streak continues as we welcome Burnley to the Stadium of Light. In my opinion, the setup against West Ham was all wrong in terms […]
Roker Report were saddened to learn of David Young’s passing earlier in the month, so for our latest ‘On This Day’ feature we have decided to look at the context surrounding a game where the Sunderland defender excelled… Given the FA Cup exploits that soon followed it is easy to forget that Bob Stokoe’s initial […]
Is Jusuf Nurkic the most dangerous man in the NBA? I’m mostly joking, of course, because despite the fact that he’s on an unprecedented run of three consecutive triple-doubles (which was on nobody’s bingo card at the beginning of the season, don’t even pretend), it took a herculean performance from Keyonte George to claim the […]
Today, the NBA announced the 2026 Castrol Rising Stars Rookies, and a notable name was missing: Ace Bailey. It’s a frustrating omission that I’m sure Bailey will not be happy about. He has done everything the Jazz have asked him to, and his reward for much of this season was watching minutes go to Svi […]
On this episode of ‘Oskee Talk’ I’m joined by TCR’s Robby Nardini & Brandt Dolce to discuss Illinois’ red-hot three-point shooting and revisit Keaton Wagler’s legendary performance at Purdue. We also break down the Fighting Illini’s historic offensive output and look ahead to a pivotal week in the Big Ten race. We also examine why […]
The Athletic | Keith Law ($): It’s preseason prospect ranking time. Today, it’s The Athletic. To the surprise of, I assume, literally no one, George Lombard Jr. is the top-ranked Yankee farmhand on Keith Law’s list. Ranked 24th overall, Law is bullish on Lombard’s future, remarking on the young shortstop’s bat speed and knowledge of […]
At one point Monday night, Arizona looked like it was going to blow a ranked opponent off its home court. Then suddenly the Wildcats were on the verge of an epic collapse. In the end, the perfect record remained intact. On a night when he scored a career-high 29 points, a late block by Brayden […]
Paulinho Becerra spent just one season at FC Barcelona, but he certainly left an impression. Signed in the summer of 2017 from Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande, he scored ten goals and added six assists in 34 appearances. The style he brought – a more direct, physical approach – wasn’t exactly what fans expected from Barça, […]
According to SNYTV’s Connor Hughes, former Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich is in ‘progressing’ talks to become the New York Jets next offensive coordinator on 2nd-year head coach Aaron Glenn’s revamped coaching staff: The 64-year-old Reich just served as Stanford’s interim head coach last year, and is now currently a senior advisor for the […]
The injury lists were longer than your last grocery list. If you are on the Golden State Warriors and are a notable rotation player, you likely didn’t play on this back-to-back. We were in Notes app territory. Conversely, no Anthony Edwards for the nagging foot infection he’s been dealing with, and came off of a […]
The Virginia Tech Hokies haven’t had the best injury luck this season. Star forward Tobi Lawal injured his lower leg in late November and missed six weeks of action. When Lawal was injured, he was averaging a double-double and it also meant the Hokies would be without their best interior defender. Freshman center Antonio Dorn […]
Whew, that was impressive. What was supposed to be one of the big matches in the ACC this season instead turned into a laugher. The Blue Devils put an absolute beatdown on the visiting Louisville Cardinals Monday night and the Duke Basketball Roundup has a recap of everything you need to know on Episode 791. […]
It wasn’t pretty, but the Edmonton Oilers won back-to-back games. On Monday evening, the Oilers hosted the Anaheim Ducks for the fifth game of their eight-game home stand. Like Saturday, it was another high-scoring game, as the Oilers defeated the Ducks 7-4 in thanks to Mattias Ekholm’s hat trick. Let’s take a look at what…

Every franchise has one player that embodies everything the team represents and is synonymous with its name.
If you haven't been keeping up with the Federal Prospects Hockey League, that's probably because you live nowhere near one of their member teams. There was a completely moronic signing that happened today by the Baton Rouge Zydeco that involved a player who should never play professional hockey again , but we're going to focus on a better story from the FPHL that doesn't involve convicted criminals. Instead, the image to the left is likely what you'll see on the shoulders of the jerseys for th...
Following the loss to Aston Villa yesterday, Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe provided updates on the two fresh injuries concerning his side. That would be midfielders Joelinton (groin) and Bruno Guimaraes (ankle).

I know, it was probably wrong of me to expect the Chicago Bulls to defend and beat one of the best offenses in the NBA. Especially one where Chicago is staring at two massive mismatches in LeBron James and Luka Dončić. That blind faith came at a cost, paid in full by a Dončić stat line that definitely padded his season averages. Chicago had chances late to make things interesting, but in my opinion, it was too little, too late. The Moment that the Bulls Lost the Game The Chicago...
