Comments from the Other Side - 76ers Game 1 4/19/26

 Great way to open the playoffs!   I love all the coach and GM envy from the Sixers fans.  Funny how in the beginning they felt Maxey better than Tatum and Brown but by the end, they think he's trash and want him traded.  Even though there is no way they would have gotten Tatum,  they will always torture themselves about taking Fultz over Tatum.  The racist comments are really getting old.  There is no basis for them.  My favorites are in bold.&nbsp...

LSU Gym Opens 2026 Ranked 2nd

And so it begins. The two-time defending SEC champion LSU gymnastics team enters the 2026 season ranked #2 in the WCGA preseason top 36 poll. This is the 14th consecutive season in which the Tigers have entered as a top-six team. Defending champions and dynastic overlords Oklahoma topped the poll with 39 first-place votes out […]

Thinning Market Creates More Limited Directions For A’s

It’s not that the A’s aren’t trying, it’s that they’re not getting to the finish line very often. It’s their version of the Giants’ higher profile failures luring Bryce Harper, Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge — names slightly more familiar in the average household than Ha-Seong Kim and Merrill Kelly. What is coming out is the […]

Cowboys survey: Is there any optimism moving forward?

There’s not much left to root for in the Dallas Cowboys 2025 season. Sure, there is the mathematical possibility of making the playoffs, but the reality is that the season is effectively over and Cowboys Nation turns its lonely eyes to the draft and… free agency? Well, at least the draft part. We’re going to […]

Smarty discusses Christmas songs

Every year we hear the debate about what makes a movie a “Christmas movie” and specifically whether or not Die Hard qualifies. (Yes, it does, BTW) But for whatever reason, we give a lot more leeway when deciding that something is a “Christmas song.” Winter Wonderland, Let it Snow, and Baby, it’s Cold Outside are […]

Heat reviving the superstardom of Ja Morant is only worth it for the right price

The Miami Heat have been linked to several stars on this year’s trade market so far. Most notably, Giannis Antetokounmpo headlines that list, and Miami should be willing to trade almost anything to bring someone of his MVP caliber aboard.  However, for the other names, that shouldn’t be the case. And not even close to […] The post Heat reviving the superstardom of Ja Morant is only worth it for the right price appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

Geno Smith returns to practice

As expected, Las Vegas Raiders starting quarterback Geno Smith will be practicing Wednesday and, thus, he may be line to play Sunday at the Houston Texans on Sunday. Kickoff is at 1:25 pm. PT. Smith missed Sunday’s 31-0 shutout loss at the Philadelphia Eagles as the Raiders dropped to 2-12. It was Smith’s first missed […]

Report: Steelers bring back John Rhys Plumlee

Life as a practice squad player in the NFL is one full of ups and downs.

Plumlee was released on Tuesday per the […]

2 Badgers earn All-America honors

The Wisconsin Badgers are headed to Kansas City to play in the Final Four, facing off against the No. 1 Kentucky Wildcats on Thursday as they look to get more hardware. Ahead of the match, though, two Badgers were rewarded for stellar seasons: Mimi Colyer and Carter Booth. Colyer earned her fourth-career AVCA All-America honors, […]

Requiem for a BC Football Season & Program News

Traveling for a couple weeks, I’ve been delayed putting out a season recap of sorts. While that has not stopped BC from making some key offseason moves, nor has it stopped the ACC from planning for next season, we carry on. Content waits for no man. First, there was the extra investment to football Blake […]

Things Sure Have Seemed Quiet on Kazuma Okamoto, Eh?

Recently, Ken Rosenthal noted how little chatter there was – at least publicly – about Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami, despite the fact that Murakami’s posting window closes on December 22. If a deal is going to happen, it has to happen SOON. Yet even Rosenthal conceded that he simply had no clue what was going to happen, or what team might ultimately sign Murakami. Some of that is a product of these posting processes being especially secretive, and I think some of it is probably tied to t...

Rams can’t afford another bad game on defense

If you take the six worst games by the Los Angeles Rams against the deep pass this season, they are 3-3. In every other contest, they’re 8-0. Chris Shula’s defense must shut down Sam Darnold for the second time this season to beat the Seahawks on Thursday, otherwise L.A.‘s defensive coordinator could be guaranteed a […]

Rutgers women’s basketball will host Lafayette to round out its nonconference slate on Saturday, December 20th, at 12 PM, kicking off a rare Jersey Mike’s Arena doubleheader with the men’s team tipping off at 8 PM against Penn.

He picked up the first sack of his career on Sunday, recorded the first interception of his career, too, and earlier today, the league announced that Chicago Bears linebacker D’Marco Jackson was honored with his first NFC Defensive Player of the Week award. Head coach Ben Johnson gave Jackson a game ball following their big […]

2026 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List No. 20

The holidays are right around the corner, and so is another benchmark event: the halfway mark of the 2026 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List. Yes, if you can believe it, we’re almost halfway through our journey of ranking the top 44 prospects in the San Francisco Giants organization. But we’re not there yet! In […]
