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 […]
The Dallas Cowboys are on the road for their season finale and will play the New York Giants before closing up shop on another year. It has been a few weeks since Dallas was eliminated from playoff contention, even longer from the Giants side of things, so this game is merely a formality on many […]
It’s been over one month since the inaugural Houston Texans Mock Draft for the 2026 class, and things are starting to shape up around the league. The Texans are jockeying for position in the AFC playoff race. Meanwhile, The Washington Commanders, who the Texans have their 2nd and 4th round picks, have fallen to a […]

In one of the more persistent Wizards trends of the past few decades, the team did something fun, interesting or meaningful when I was otherwise occupied and unable to watch or respond. Over the years, the Wizards have made signs, trades, or other major personnel moves (front office and coaching staff included) when I’ve been […]
The Oregon Ducks played host to the Omaha Mavericks on Sunday evening in their final tune-up game before Big Ten conference play resumes in early January. The Ducks came out of the gate on fire from downtown, hitting their first three shots from three, and building up a quick 20-8 lead after about 7 minutes […]
The Dallas Cowboys won on Christmas Day last week and objectively that is a very fun sentence to say and read. Obviously morale has been a bit low around the Cowboys for some time now, even before this season started, and wins under the current circumstances can feel a bit hollow to some. That is […]
After a series of decisions at the end of the 2025 season, the Red Sox quickly went from a plethora to a dearth of left-handed pitchers, almost overnight. Justin Wilson, who spent a year in Boston, and Steven Matz, who was acquired at the trade deadline, were both free agents at season’s end. Then, at […]
Barcelona head to Espanyol for their first La Liga game of 2026 in what promises to be a big game for many reasons. Hansi Flick’s side head into the game on top of the pile in La Liga, but Espanyol have been enjoying a fine season too and currently sit in fifth place in the […]
By now you should be aware that Zaide Lowery is no longer on the Marquette men’s basketball roster. If not, we’ve got a whole post about that already. Go read that to make sure you’re up to speed as to what’s going on here. What we’re doing here is [loud sighing noises] admitting that Noted […]
Sometimes when things are going poorly for a team, fans get carried away. It can be easy to become so wrapped up in a team’s struggles that you lose a sense of perspective. Most of the time when a team is struggling, it is not historic. It is similar to the struggles of many other […]
Luther Burden III has emerged as a dynamic player for the Chicago Bears during his rookie season, which is why many were more concerned with his health at the end of the game than the resulting loss. Earlier this morning, Adam Schefter spread good cheer, indicating that Burden “suffered a quad injury that is not […]
The Detroit Lions (8-8) and Chicago Bears (11-5) will square off in a Week 18 divisional rivalry game. Unfortunately, this game has lost a bit of its luster, as the Lions are limping toward the end of the season, and the Bears have already clinched the NFC North title, their first since 2018. The folks […]
Dónal Óg Cusack, the first elite athlete to come out as gay in Ireland, shared his and Nathan Adams' happy news on Christmas Day. The post History-making gay sportsman gets engaged to his HYROX athlete boyfriend appeared first on Outsports .
Speaking to Diario AS, Francesco Mauri, former assistant coach to Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid, offered perspective on Xabi Alonso’s current situation and pushed back against the idea that the coach has lost the dressing room. “I have a lot of affection for him. We had him as a player at Madrid and Bayern and […]
If one recalls the halycon days of September 19, 2024, Shohei Ohtani established the first 50/50 club with aplomb against the Miami Marlins at the sociological nightmare that is loanDepot Park. One might recall that a scrum broke out where the historic home run ball landed, and, to settle that dispute in the most American […]
The Carolina Hurricanes have shown their great organizational depth through a ton of injuries this season. Even right now, they are currently playing without Jaccob Slavin, K'Andre Miller, Seth Jarvis, and Alexis-Charles Legault. While the Hurricanes' forward depth is another discussion with someone like Taylor Hall playing on the fourth line, the defense is the focus here. Carolina has arguably 10 defenseman that could be on the roster and contributing, all of whom have played at least a game...
The Los Angeles Rams mostly have not been able to cover larger pass catchers all season. They’ll travel to face the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football where this problem will likely be ever apparent. Kyle Pitts has been on an absolute tear recently since Kirk Cousins took over the reins as signal caller. He’s […]
Former unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua is most recently coming off a knockout win over Jake Paul in a Netflix special event that would presumably lead into a showdown with Tyson Fury in the coming year, but it’s now been reported by ESPN that Joshua was involved in car crash in Nigeria today where he […]
It’s understandable to take these predictions with a grain of salt considering the ol’ crystal ball hasn’t been operating with 100% accuracy lately. The future is always uncertain and difficult to project. The year of 2025 saw the Penguins begin another ownership change, the exit of Mike Sullivan, struggles on the ice, Sidney Crosby continue […]
The Mami Hurricanes are gearing up for their Cotton Bowl clash with the Ohio State Buckeyes on Wednesday. Fortunately, it appears the Hurricanes will mostly have all hands on deck for the biggest game of the season. The initial availability report for Miami vs. Ohio State was revealed on Sunday night, and the Hurricanes don’t […]

Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. The holidays are a lot of things to a lot of people. If nothing else, the holidays are hopefully a reminder of the good things in life, things that are too often taken for granted. I remember when the Sonics left in 2008. (I haven’t watched […]
While the San Francisco 49ers are alive in the race for the NFL’s No. 1 seed after beating the Chicago Bears 42-38, there is one narrative that can die: Brock Purdy not being worth that huge contract he signed in the offseason. If you watched this and last week’s game against the Indianapolis Colts, you […]
