There’s still one game left in the 2025-26 regular season, but the Miami Heat will either finish 9th or 10th at the conclusion of Sunday’s game versus the Atlanta Hawks. It’s also not too early to start peeling back the onion that was the Heat’s regular season … which likely made some of us cry […] The post The Good, Bad And Ugly: 2025-26 Miami Heat Regular Season appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Special thanks to L.C. Norton of SB Nation’s Indiana coverage for joining me on this week’s podcast to discuss the Hoosiers’ roster: Nota bene: This article is an update to my earlier in-season preview of Indiana, and assumes a familiarity with the team’s roster and tendencies from the first part of the year. There have been […]
The Wisconsin Badgers continued to add to their offensive line with the transfer portal addition of Florida State offensive tackle Lucas Simmons, who committed to the program on Wednesday. Simmons, who stands a towering 6’8, 310 pounds, was mainly a reserve and a special-teamer in 2025 for Florida State, playing 81 total offensive snaps. He […]

With the Rangers stuck in the murky middle at the halfway point, it’s time to hand out the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable midseason awards.
The Miami Dolphins have some easy and some tough decisions to make this offseason, but getting it right is a non-negotiable.
Hudson Williams, who plays Shane Hollander, says that he has heard from closeted athletes. 'It's hitting people right in the nerves.' The post ‘Heated Rivalry’ star says closeted gay pro athletes have reached out to him appeared first on Outsports .
One thing I think everyone here agrees on — and we don’t all agree on much! — is that the Cubs ought to sign one of the top free-agent hitters this offseason. In my view, now that the team has traded for a cost-controlled starting pitcher — and potentially a very good one in Edward […]
The Carolina Panthers are one of 14 NFL teams still standing. But not all 14 of these teams are created equal. With an 8-9 record and backing their way into the playoffs in a less-than-impressive fashion, there are plenty of Panthers skeptics out there. There are probably plenty of Panthers skeptics here, too, but for […]
There have been six players in the long history of the Yankees to be born on January 8th. Of them, there’ve been two career minor leaguers who made brief, one-year appearances (Breyvic Valera, Kevin Whelan), a World Series champion reliever (Brian Boehringer), a veteran starter who threw a total of 1.2 innings in pinstripes (Jeff […]
The Seattle Seahawks managed to win the NFC West and also earned a bye in the first week of the playoffs, becoming the number one seed for the first time since 2014. The defense’s performance was near perfect. I confess I don’t remember a game so well planned and executed from beginning to end. Jason […]
Premier League side Chelsea never seem to tire of splashing out to strengthen their squad and are reportedly eyeing more transfers after appointing Liam Rosenior as their new boss. Rosenior has taken over from Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge, signing a contract until 2032, and the rumor mill is already getting exited about the players […]
When Mizzou star linebacker Josiah Trotter unsurprisingly announced his intentions to enter the NFL draft on New Years Day, the Tigers were left with a giant hole in the middle of their excellent defense. Trotter not only led Mizzou in tackles in 2025 with 84, but served as a leader along the spine of the […]
While the campaign to get Daniel Whelan named as the First-Team All-Pro punter for the 2025 season is in full swing, let’s take a moment to appreciate how impressive a campaign the Green Bay Packers’ third-year punter put up this year. Whelan’s rankings in the context of the NFL are tremendous and he absolutely deserves […]
Hello good friends! Here’s the news you came here for. In Mariners news… Around the league…
It’s hard to fault the Mets for re-uniting with Ryne Stanek after trading for him prior to the 2024 trade deadline. Part of their attempt to bolster the bullpen for their 2024 postseason push, Stanek struggled at first, posting a 15.75 ERA (seven earned runs in four innings) across his first five outings. He recovered […]
The New Orleans Saints offseason has started as they have missed the playoffs for the fifth year in a row. So, let’s see which teams have the best Super Bowl odds headed into Wild Card weekend, courtesy of Fanduel Sportsbook: T-32. New Orleans Saints: ELIMINATED (Last week’s odds: ELIMINATED) (Last week’s ranking: T-32) 1. Seattle […]
The Los Angeles Rams’ special teams unit has been bad all season. It could be short-handed and maybe even worse for the playoffs, possibly being one of the primary reasons the Rams fall short of a Super Bowl run this season. We watched LA lose to the Philadelphia Eagles because of a blocked kick that […]
Syracuse Orange center Uche Izoje remains a key reason why the team is off to a strong start this season, and now the freshman is receiving an honor no player has ever received in the program’s history. The United States Basketball Writers Association gave its Tamika Catchings National Freshman of the Week honor to Izoje, […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are so back. After demolishing the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night in the most entertaining game of the season so far, the feeling surrounding this team feels impenetrable. The dark cloud looming over this current rebuild that the front office is pursuing, has once again been waved away to briefly see some immaculate sunshine. Cutter Gauthier was traded away to the Ducks because he didn’t want to play for the Flyers after they drafted him fifth overall. It’s a story...
The offseason is well underway at this point, and there have been two trades so far that have caused me to scratch my head a bit. Both have involved Front Offices that, in terms of pedigree and past experience, seem to know what they’re doing — so I’m shrugging a bit in addition to the […]
Good morning, Chargers fans! You know what to do! And now for today’s links. Chargers News: Check out the Chargers’ injury report from Wednesday (Chargers.com) Three matchups to watch in this weekend’s wild card game against the Patriots (Chargers Wire) Jim Harbaugh recently spoke on his brother’s firing from the Ravens (Chargers Wire) Could this […]
Yesterday, we saw a big name starting pitcher get traded by an NL East team, but it was not MacKenzie Gore. Instead, the Marlins decided to trade Edward Cabrera to the Cubs for a prospect package headlined by outfielder Owen Caissie. This takes another potential Gore suitor out of contention, while also setting the market […]
Put Tuesday’s game out of your mind for a moment. On Sunday night, New Jersey Devils fans raised eyebrows and perked ears around the league as they repeatedly booed Luke Hughes over two gaffes leading to goals against in their loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. The timing of it feeds into the worst pot-stirrers league-adjacent […]
The Tennessee Titans have requested to interview Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith for their head coaching vacancy, per Dianna Russini. “Sources say the Titans have interview requests out for three more candidates,” Russini reports on X. “Packers DC Jeff Hafley. Steelers OC Arthur Smith, [and] 49ers DC Robert Saleh.” Smith was the Titans’ OC […]
