The Detroit Lions often tell a lot about their NFL Draft intentions by the players they decide to meet. Whether it’s formal meetings at the NFL Combine or pre-draft visits to their team facility in Allen Park, the Lions’ draft history has been littered with players they’ve done additional work on. So every year, we […]
We got some insight into the Federal Way native from someone who has covered him closely.
The 2026 World Baseball Classic is shaping up to be another outstanding tournament, and this time around Team USA may have the pitching to go all the way. On Thursday, it was announced that Detroit Tigers’ ace Tarik Skubal will be a member of Team USA for the first time. That gives manager Mark DeRosa […]
Tyson Foerster is now going to be out for a whole lot of time and his season is most likely over. What was an injury that was originally expected to keep the Philadelphia Flyers winger off the ice for a few months, has now been extended to a miserable five-month timeline and that runs right up until this team is probably no longer playing hockey (unless there is a deep playoff run for some reason). With that news, does this affect anything the Flyers were planning to do this season? How w...
MLB RUMORS — We touched on this in the latest episode of The BN Cubs Podcast (out this afternoon), but I’ll reiterate it here: The Arizona Diamondbacks are being increasingly lumped into the Alex Bregman sweepstakes of late, with Ken Rosenthal even reporting that “a scenario exists in which the Arizona Diamondbacks would both sign free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman and keep second baseman Ketel Marte.” Pretty big/juicy addition to our slate of MLB Rumors, right? Eh, maybe … let’s talk ...
The final Chicago Bears injury report of the week is out. Unfortunately, so are two of quarterback Caleb Williams’ top pass-catching targets. Wide receivers Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III have already been ruled OUT for Saturday’s game against the Green Bay Packers. This is a bummer for obvious reasons. Odunze has missed the last two games due to a foot injury. Meanwhile, Burden will sit this one out because of an ankle issue. Burden, a rookie from Mizzou, has gained the trust of his q...
The Chicago Cubs today announced at least some of the lineup for the 10th anniversary reunion of the 2016 World Series team, which will be heading up the Cubs Convention next month. As you can see, it’s a truly loaded collection of nostalgia: Albert Almora Jr.? The tag-up! Trevor Cahill? The swing man! Chris Coghlan? Underrated! Carl Edwards Jr.? The Stringbean Slinger! Dexter Fowler? The lead-off homer! Justin Grimm? The fireman! Jason Hammel? Given him potato chips and he rock...
A rival role player turned Laker is a tale as old as time. Whether it was Metta World Peace, Matt Barnes or Rajon Rondo, Lakers fans have had to clench their teeth and bear it with new signings throughout the years. A particularly bitter recent pill would have seen Bruce Brown join the Lakers immediately […]

A reminder that Jaylon Johnson’s football IQ is through the roof popped up in the Chicago Bears’ Week 15 win against the Cleveland Browns. Check out what CB1 had to say about his interception of Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders when he snatched a ball away that was intended for wide receiver Jerry Jeudy: Jaylon Johnson had his first pick of the season – it was a dandy. He joined me postgame to discuss, plus 3 more takeaways – Bears #1 with 30 total… “I seen him (Jerry Jeudy) and Sh...
A Philadelphia team that came into the season as recent Super Bowl winners but can’t get into gear. A Washington team with a double digit loss season a year after landing a franchise QB. What decade is this? John Stolnis is correct, this isn’t 2023 all over again. If this season is a repeat, it’s […]
Brett Kulak's stay with the Pittsburgh Penguins may not be long as the team could flip him sooner rather than later. In order for the Edmonton Oilers to acquire Tristan Jarry from the Penguins, money had to go back, and Stuart Skinner wasn't enough. Kulak was also included with his $2.75 million AAV cap hit. According to Elliotte Friedman, "Before he was included in the Pittsburgh deal, I think there were some teams in on Brett Kulak. That one isn't over...they did that (flipped an acquisition...

The game was marred by a Grace Sullivan ankle injury in the first […]

When the Celtics moved Jrue Holiday for Anfernee Simons last summer, it was easy to view the trade through a financial lens. Boston needed flexibility. Simons offered shooting, youth, and a smaller expiring deal. It wasn’t a perfect match, but there was enough upside to let it play out and see how he fit within […]
