I once knew a couple who visited Hawaii several times a year. They kept going back and going back until finally they decided to purchase property there. Might as well, right? If you substitute “Portland Trail Blazers” for “a couple” and “20th place” for “Hawaii”, you have the perfect description of the Blazers in the […]

The Edmonton Oilers are pulling out the alternate away jerseys one last time on this road trip, and honestly, who’s going to complain? They haven’t lost in them yet. Not once. So yeah, they’re wearing them in Nashville, and all fingers crossed, that streak continues. Is it silly? Yah. Does anyone really care? Not even…

As we review the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2025 season, four statistics help explain how the defense performed. Each number highlights a specific issue — and the broader takeaway that followed. 1.

For the second year in a row the Dallas Cowboys finished with a losing record, managing only seven wins in back-to-back seasons. They have a lot of work to do this off-season to hopefully right the ship and get back to their winning ways. Their main objective seems to be upgrading the defensive side of […]
Measurables 2025 Stats Strengths Weaknesses Draft Projection Round 2 Grade Josephs ranked 50th on my early December Top 100 Big Board with a Round 2 Grade. His speed, explosion, and length is a terrifying combination, and he was able to utilize them for a very high win rate over the last few years. But his […]
Inspiration. I was dismayed because the relative absence of moves to improve Diamondbacks’ weak points. One exception is that starting pitching could be as good as last season with the re-signing of Kelly and the signing of Soroka. Perhaps Soroka and Mena will adequately fill Gallen’s slot. Pfaadt might improve somewhat. However, the context is […]

Soon after we polled you all last week, Giannis had a lengthy one-on-one with The Athletic’s Sam Amick, discussing his future with the Bucks. You can read the full interview here and also my reaction to it, but the the main takeaways are: What never ceases to amaze me is that some, even after reading […]
As Mike Vrabel fielded a question Monday morning on rookie kicker Andy Borregales, the Patriots head coach made sure to knock on the wooden press conference stand. When it came to his kicker, Vrabel was not looking for any jinxes. In a low-scoring 16-3 wild-card win, Borregales connected on all three of his fields-goal attempts […]
Indiana football is already turning its historic run through the 2025 season and the ensuing College Football Playoff into success on the recruiting trail.

The last two games for the Philadelphia 76ers have summed up their season in some ways. Both were against the Toronto Raptors. On Sunday, Philadelphia lost a tight game in overtime without Joel Embiid. There was enough good in the loss on Sunday for someone to be intrigued enough to watch the next game. Then […]

The Atlantic 10 has been the best mid-major women’s basketball conference with three of the top six and five of the top 11 in this week’s Other Top 25. That led us to ask the question: who do you think will come out on top this season in the A10? The answer: the Davidson Wildcats […]
After three big signings in the Transfer Portal yesterday, plus the announcement from safety Bray Hubbard that he’ll be returning for his senior season, the question arises of just how much more Coach DeBoer and GM Courtney Morgan need to do to get this roster filled out. After adding in the freshmen, let’s take a […]
Not a good game from the Celtics. It's always puzzling to me how one game they can't miss and the next they can't throw it in the ocean. Pacers fans can't agree on whether to continue to tank or try to win. It's funny how they trash Jarace Walker but he actually played pretty well. I cracked up on the comment about Jaylen counting out the 3.5 million pennies. I really wouldn't put it past him. On to the next one and hopefully they can snap out of whatever th...
Matvei Michkov is mired in a slump. So has he hit rock bottom? And what can be done to rectify the situation? We take a look.
After the worst performance – especially defensively – of the 2026 campaign, the 18th-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide is now coming off back-to-back losses for the first time this season. Texas was also the first unranked team to best Nate Oats’ squad this year. To be completely frank – that was an ugly, and telling, loss […]
Indiana football is already turning its run through the College Football Playoff into increasing momentum on the high school recruiting trail. Garyon Hobbs, a safety out of the Christian Academy of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky, committed to join the Hoosiers on Sunday, two days after No. 1-seed Indiana beat No. 5-seed Oregon in the Peach […]

The Blazers have emerged victors in each of the teams’ first three meetings this season. The Warriors had rattled off a run of eight wins in 11 games before the Hawks swooped into town and delivered […]
Another day, another Tyler signed to a minor league. Yesterday it was journeyman reclamation project Tyler Beede , while this one is more of a true prospect/development-project type: The Cubs have signed RHP Tyler Ras to a minor league deal. Ras spent time in the Rockies and Astros organization since being drafted in the 14th round back in 2021. Originally a Cubs 33rd round pick in 2018, he is coming off a Pro Day with Tread. pic.twitter.com/GOkYc3AL51 — Greg Huss (@OutOfTheVin...
The Wisconsin Badgers had a big blow earlier this offseason when running back Dilin Jones elected to enter the transfer portal. Jones, the team’s starter in 2025, dealt with injuries and the team’s overall struggles offensively, rushing for 300 yards and two touchdowns in seven games this season. However, he was seen as one of […]
