Las Vegas Raiders not doing Ashton Jeanty any favors

Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookie class fared in a 33-16 home loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 11 and what it means looking ahead to Sunday’s home game against the Cleveland Browns. Ashton Jeanty: The No. 6 overall draft pick isn’t having a great season and a lot […]

Comments from the Other Side - Nets 11/18/25

 It's always funny to see fans conflicted about wanting to tank but hating the Celtics so much that they also want to win.  Almost every team has fans begging for a rookie or bench player to get minutes.  It's funny that the rookie they are calling for was just on the GLeague team that got beat twice by the Celtics GLeague team.  I always love the "Let's go Celtics" chants in other arenas.  Pritchard has to be annoying - smallest guy out there getting rebounds and layu...

2025 Dodgers season review: Michael Kopech

Michael Kopech did some heavy lifting during the Dodgers’ championship run in 2024, pitching in 10 of their 16 postseason games. However, injuries defined his 2025 season, and sidelined him for 77 percent of games this season. The Dodgers slow-played Kopech during spring training, dealing with fatigue from the previous October, which left him well […]

Preview and Game Thread: Hurricanes at Wild

Tonight is going to be unnecessarily late for fans. Even though the Carolina Hurricanes are in the Central Time Zone, they are the second of a doubleheader featured on TNT. That means even though the listed start time is 9:30, it’s probably going to be closer to 10. Why? Because national TV demands it. You’ve […]

Angels get Rodriguez from Orioles

Last night, word broke about a deal between the Baltimore Orioles and Anaheim Angels that had outfielder Taylor Ward going to the O’s in exchange for pitcher Grayson Rodriguez. The reaction to the deal was befuddlement. The Orioles had been seeking a righthanded outfield bat, and the 31 year old Ward fits the bill in […]

How Mac Jones gains more value with each passing week for the 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers’ signing Mac Jones to a two-year deal may prove to be one of the more prescient deals they’ve signed to date. Jones started every game from Weeks 2 through 10, save Week 4, and kept the 49ers team afloat and alive in the playoff race. He went 5-3, which was better […]

Chicago’s future on display in the Arizona Fall League

The 2025 Arizona Fall League was a showcase for the Chicago White Sox, thanks to a trio of prospects who arrived in the desert with very different expectations. Hagen Smith, the lefty with a first-round pedigree, was already a headline name. Outfielder Braden Montgomery, armed with immense talent but fresh off recovering from a broken […]

Orioles trade analysis: Grayson Rodriguez for Taylor Ward

The Orioles traded Grayson Rodriguez last night. Even with a little time to digest this maneuver, that was still a surprising sentence to write out. Mike Elias really went and did it, whatever “it” might turn out to be, bringing in 31-year-old outfielder Taylor Ward from the Angels. The righty-batting Ward has one year remaining […]

Seahawks All-22 Review: The good and bad from Seattle’s rookies versus the Rams

The Seattle Seahawks rookies combined for 183 snaps in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams. Tory Horton’s absence impacted these numbers. It’s worth noting that the majority of these snaps, 122, were between the Seahawks’ first two picks, Grey Zabel and Nick Emmanwori. Let’s analyze some of the key plays from this game! Grey […]

Islanders News: Riding a road high, waiting for Romo news

Tuesday night had a chaotic, disheartening ending to what otherwise should’ve been an uplifting evening as the Isles took four of six points from a run through Vegas, Colorado and Dallas. (Six of eight when you include Utah, no slouches themselves, though that effort was less impressive.) The Isles’ win over the Stars in a […]

Caleb Wilson is Player of the Game once again as UNC outmuscles Navy

In awarding him player of the game after Carolina’s win over NC Central last Friday, I wrote that Caleb Wilson makes even the buy games worth watching.  After what he did against Navy last night, I’m considering amending that to must-watch. Sure, the first half wasn’t great for him. He struggled with the Midshipmen’s physicality […]

Peak Perspective: 2025 Coach of the Year Resumes

It’s about time to start one of the least favorite but most interesting times of the year: The coaching carousel. As a Group of 5 conference, the Mountain West head and assistant coaches get offers and leave each season for more prestigious and higher-paying new jobs. It’s just how it is in the college football […]

Saints power ranking entering Week 12

NFL.com – 30 (+1) “After beating Carolina in Week 10, the Saints will come out of their Week 11 bye with a chance to make it two straight wins when they face the Falcons in a game that has suddenly become a battle for third place in the NFC South, thanks to Atlanta’s losing streak. This […]

2025 Phillies player review: Alan Rangel

The Phillies were no stranger to churn on the back of their roster, especially when it came to relievers. Throughout a season, due to injuries or ineffectiveness, you’ll usually get a revolving cast of names taking up the final spot or two in the bullpen. One such pitcher was righthander Alan Rangel. Since signing with […]

Cashius Howell named finalist for Lombardi Award

On Tuesday, Texas A&M defensive end Cashius Howell was named a finalist for the Lombardi Award. The award honors the top lineman in college football (offense or defense) and is also eligible for linebackers. Alongside Howell are Texas Tech defenders David Bailey (DE) and Jacob Rodriguez (LB), and Alabama offensive tackle Kadyn Proctor. Howell has […]

Rams Reacts Survey Week 12

In Week 5, the Rams lost to the 49ers at a time when most people believed San Francisco was too depleted to compete and confidence in the direction of the team cratered at 3-2. With a 5-0 record since then and back to back wins over division rivals, will confidence peak at 100-percent this week […]

Contract projections drop for 2026 Packers free agents

The NFL salary cap has risen from $182.5 million in 2021 to $279.2 million in 2025, all while the NFL’s teams have figured out a better way to keep hold of their top talent with the use of salary conversions and void years. Because of the lack of stars who have hit the free agent […]

NC State is playing UVA in Brazil to begin 2026 season

NC State’s home-and-home with Virginia has become a home-and-Southern-Hemisphere, apparently. Pack Pride reported Tuesday night that the two schools are going to play a Week 0 game in Brazil next season, and if that’s not the most random sports development of the week, I don’t know what is. The game reportedly will count as a […]

Momentum Moments: Vol. 2

The Bucks have come back down to earth after the electricity of the season’s opening week and a half, playing just .500 ball over their last eight games. But the momentum shifting plays? They haven’t gone anywhere. For better or worse. @ Pacers The Bucks are behind enemy lines and it is hostile—Myles Turner’s return […]
