The first installment of the Chicago Bears injury report ahead of the team’s Week 17 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers is here. I have some mixed feelings about what the first release looks like, but we can start with the good news accompanying wide receiver Luther Burden III.
Burden, who missed Saturday’s Week 16 win against the Green Bay Packers was limited in Wednesdays’ practice at Halas Hall. The rookie wideout missed all of the team’s practice sessions last week because of an ...

The Raiders claimed DT Brodric Martin off waivers on Thursday, and the former Detroit Lions third rounder now heads to Las Vegas where in year three he’s only logged 63 career snaps. Martin stands at an impressive 6’5, 330 and plays, as expected, your traditional 0/1 tech as a true nose tackle. Originally a consensus […]

Quinn Hutson was recalled on December 15th, two days before the Condors played the Ontario Reign. Hutson went on to score his first career NHL goal against the Boston Bruins, but it looked dim for the AHL squad without him. In their first game without Hutson, the Condors lost 4-0 and looked completely lost offensively….
2025 has been a year of happiness, heartbreak, and everything in between for Wisconsin Badgers squads across the athletic spectrum, so I thought that dipping into a 17th-century Japanese form of expression called Haiku might perfectly capture the essence of the moment for the Wisconsin Athletic Department. Happy Holidays to all of the Badgers out there from Scary Alvarez. […]
Joan Garcia has been a real hit at Barcelona since moving from Espanyol in the summer which has led to calls he could be called up to Spain’s World Cup 2026 squad. The problem for Garcia is that Spain hardly lack for goalkeeping options, meaning competition for the No. 1 is already very fierce. Manager […]
Without checking, this might be the latest in the season I’ve done my first mock Bears offseason. It’s been for good reason, too: they’ve clinched a playoff spot with two games left to go in the 2025 regular season, and they’re 1.5 games ahead in first place in the NFC North. It’s been a fantastic […]

It has been a season to forget in Kansas City—the team has been eliminated from the playoffs and guaranteed its first losing season under Andy Reid—and it sounds like we might be witnessing the final days of Travis Kelce’s Hall of Fame career.
