I know that the Rockets pushed a huge pile of chips into the center of the table when they traded away their top scorer, and arguably their most valuable defender from last season’s 52-win team, for Kevin Durant. I know Kevin Durant is a two-time champion, future Hall-of-Fame inductee, and arguably the greatest scorer of […]
Brian Cashman's Biggest Challenge Is Fixing The Yankee Offense Bill Madden, Daily News, October 11, 2025 Now that another Yankee season has concluded prematurely without a championship trophy, the usual finger-pointing begins and fans in every corner of Yankeeland are looking for culprits. But I'm here to say in this latest playoff elimination at the hands of the Blue Jays the blame should fall squarely on the players themselves. In short, the Blue Jays proved themselves to be a better t...
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has been named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Buffalo Bills in Week 6.

When running an OOTP tournament, you can’t just start with, y’know, the tournament. (Well, you can, but where’s the fun in that?) Instead, you run a shortened or full season so as to seed the teams organically. For this one, I chose to run a particularly short 30-game season, figuring that would be enough. When […]
The Brooklyn Nets announced Wednesday that Fanbo Zeng, the 22-year-old 6’11” small forward who is one of China’s top young players, has been waived. The team also waived Malachi Smith, a 6’6” shooting guard who they had signed Tuesday in their effort to get to the salary cap floor under the CBA. Later Wednesday, the […]
Wales Women’s National Team and Seattle Reign legend, Jessica Fishlock has announced her retirement from international play after 19 years for Cymru. “I have made the decision that the match against Australia will be my last one in the red of Cymru,” Fishlock said.

Gonzaga and San Francisco will play each other for the third straight season at the Chase Center on February 18th on ESPN, the home of the Golden State Warriors and Golden State Valkyries. It’s just not the same; I would much rather watch these two West Coast Conference opponents go up against each other at […]
What is the defining feature of the Toronto Raptors’ three decades as a franchise? That’s the question Raptors radio host Eric Smith and his brother-in-law turned co-author, Andrew Bricker, asked themselves when dreaming up their project. Bricker, who teaches English literature at Ghent University in Belgium, is a long-time basketball fan. Smith, as fans know, […]
The strength of Gonzaga’s roster in 2025-26 isn’t in its stars. Rather, it’s in the players’ best enough to start almost anywhere else, whose minutes might not even crack double digits this year. Jalen Warley is proof of that fact. A former five-star recruit out of high school and three-year starter in the Atlantic Coast […]
Boston College (1-5) opens a slight favorite home to UConn (4-2), but the #analytics are putting them as an 8.5 point favorite…. And as we all love to hear, Bill O’Brien agrees. I can’t even blame them, but based on the little of UConn I’ve watched for some godforsaken reason, I refuse to believe it. […]
Kenny Moore WILL practice today! Steichen high praise for Taylor & Harbaugh!
The Miami Dolphins are likely to be sellers at the NFL trade deadline, and one AFC powerhouse could have their eyes set on pass rusher Jaelan Phillips.
Week 6 was a mostly quiet week but saw the season debut of Esezi Otomewo and the NFL debut of Danny Striggow in Jacksonville where he recorded his first NFL tackle. Safety U was in full view as both Tyler Nubin and Antoine Winfield had their most productive games of the season thus far. Here […]
Week 8 was a second consecutive week missing more than we hit after 4 straight weeks looking smart-ish. The staff was a collective 21-27. Christian was the best performer at 5-3. Cole and Import were right behind at 4-4. Tom and I just missed out on .500 at 3-5. Andrew scuffled to a 2-6 mark. […]

This Brewers season has been one filled with hope. A franchise-record 97 wins. Two winning streaks of 11-plus games. Securing baseball’s No. 1 seed. Knocking off the division-rival Cubs in the NLDS. Earning a chance to avenge a 2018 NLCS loss to the Dodgers and advance to the World Series for the second time in […]
Monday’s 3-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets was a doozy. Jake Allen played the first two periods in net for the New Jersey Devils, ceding the crease while up 2-1 due to cramping. Jacob Markstrom thus played the third period, and everything was going well for the first 19 minutes and 30 seconds he […]
Timberwolves Blow Past the Loong-Lions, Now Set Their Sights on the Bulls — and Reality Let’s be honest: that 60-point curb-stomping of the Loong-Lions wasn’t basketball, it was cardio with referees. That’s what the preseason is for: one part entertainment, one part lab experiment, and one part “please don’t let anyone get hurt.” After two […]
See which prospects had the best seasons of 2025! Alonzo Tredwell Tredwell was the Astros 2nd round pick back in the 2023 draft and he had a breakout season this year. The right-hander pitched across three different levels and posted a 3.69 ERA with 122 strikeouts over 100 innings. This included a dominant 40 strikeouts […]

And if there’s something we missed, be sure to talk about it in the comments. NO PATIENCE Rich Rodriguez didn’t spend the bye week preaching patience. He’s […]

The Colorado Buffaloes will get the opportunity to rest up this weekend while on bye, but they’ll be back for some late-night action in Salt Lake City when they return to action next weekend. Per a release from the Big 12 earlier this week, Colorado’s game against the Utah Utes will kick off at 8:15 […]
Virginia basketball was picked to finish fifth in the ACC this season by a select media panel, the ACC announced on Tuesday. UVA came in behind Duke, Louisville, North Carolina, and NC State, in that order, with the Blue Devils selected as the conference’s favorite for the 10th time in the last 13 years. The […]
The Jacksonville Jaguars were a no-show in Sunday afternoon’s 20-12 loss against the Seattle Seahawks as they looked out of sync in all three phases of the game. Whether it be penalties, drops, missed kicks, whiffs on blocking assignments — you name it — the Jags’ performance was as sloppy as we’ve seen in the […]
