It’s been a long road to get here. It started in a warm September within the Wake Competition Center and Lenovo Center ice, it’s gone through preseason games, 82 regular season games, a three week break for the Olympics that saw each color of medal come back to the area, a quiet trade deadline, injuries, […]
The Lakers appeared to have dodged an injury bullet regarding Luka Dončić. In the closing minutes against the Warriors, Luka seemed to have potentially suffered an injury, though he said it was “probably nothing” postgame. Since that contest, Los Angeles has had a pair of practices and he has been able to participate fully, indicating […]
We are getting further into the season and learning more about each team. As a result, the lines are getting better and fewer games are coming in with wildly unexpected results. Of the six games picked last week, only Minnesota’s upset over Nebraska on Friday night jumped out as wildly out of line with expectations. […]
Yesterday, we got some exciting news about players who have been on injured reserve but returned to practice on Wednesday. We don’t yet know if they will be activated before Sunday, but its noteworthy how they followed up their return to action yesterday, and their status today. Here’s what we know so far after this […]
It’s already Thursday, friends! And that means it’s game night! The Bruins will try to snap out of a losing streak against the Ducks tonight. It was nice to see a short-lived, third-period comeback last game so maybe things are trending up after some lulls. Discuss!
Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season brings us a Thursday Night Football inter-conference matchup as the Minnesota Vikings travel to California to face the Los Angeles Chargers. Both teams have playoff aspirations this year and will be looking to showcase themselves to a primetime audience. Even the oddsmakers have this game fairly close, with […]
The Wisconsin Badgers hired a new general manager this offseason, promoting Deputy Athletic Director and Chief Operating Officer Marcus Sedberry after Max Stienecker left for an executive position with the USC Trojans. Sedberry was a different hire than initially expected, as Wisconsin focused on filling a role with someone with more business experience, rather than […]
During the first seven games of the 2025 season, the Kansas City Chiefs have been concealing an offensive weapon. But that player’s cover was blown during Sunday’s 31-0 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Rookie running back Brashard Smith led the Chiefs in yards from scrimmage (81) and touches (19). He moved the chains three […]
The Game One starting pitchers for the World Series have been named. Blake Snell will be getting the start for the Los Angeles Dodgers, while Trey Yesavage will be starting for the Toronto Blue Jays. Snell only made 11 regular season starts for the Dodgers but was excellent in those outings, putting up a 2.35 […]
It was, again, another tough week, this time 3-7, thanks to some bad luck in a few games. I got hooked by the USC-Notre Dame game, and Tennessee had what appeared to be a touchdown that would have hit the over called short of the end zone in the final seconds. But can’t stop, won’t […]
Real Madrid striker Endrick is keen on leaving the club on a loan deal this winter, according to a report published Thursday by MARCA. The Brazilian attacker feels he needs to play meaningful minutes to continue developing as a player and would like to compete for a spot on Brazil’s squad for the 2026 FIFA […]
I don’t expect the Green Bay Packers to just take a loss on their $48 million signing of cornerback Nate Hobbs, nor do I think they should. Hobbs was one of the premier slot cornerbacks to hit free agency last offseason, and he was paid as such. With that being said, be it because of […]
Ahead of a showdown with the 23rd ranked Illinois Fighting Illini, I talked to Pleas (pronounced Plez) Honeywood of SB Nation’s Illinois blog, The Champaign Room to get the lowdown on a very good Illinois team! MS: This is year 5 for Illini Head Coach Bret Bielema. Aside from a 5-7 season in 2023, Bielema […]
Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt popped up on the injury report on Thursday. He was limited in practice with a hip injury. He was given a veteran rest day on Wednesday. Wide receiver Scotty Miller also appeared on the injury report and was limited with a finger injury, and center Zach Frazier didn’t practice at […]
Now that Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season is in the books, it’s time for an incredibly meaningful and serious exercise: NFL Power Rankings! What differentiates these rankings from all the others is that they’re THE only truly accurate ones in the entire universe. Hard to believe, I know. Let’s take a look at […]
As the New England Patriots headed back to the practice fields, so did two rookies. Outside linebacker Elijah Ponder and safety Craig Woodson returned for Thursday’s work on the Cleveland Browns. Due to knee and ankle ailments, respectively, both had been sidelined in Foxborough to open the week. The Cal Poly Mustang and California Golden […]
The sting hasn’t worn off quite yet. “We’re still in grief mode,” said Mariners team president Jerry Dipoto at today’s end-of-season media availability. Across the room, Justin Hollander also became overwhelmed with emotion while talking about the end to a Mariners season that came just short of a World Series run. Dan Wilson, true to […]
After a run of a few games at home, the Flyers are breaking up their stretch of home games with a quick trip up north to face off with the Senators, and a few familiar faces in the process. They’ve picked up a nice bit of steam over these last couple of games, but the next challenge is ahead of them, as they look to keep that rolling on another team’s turf. Puck drop: 7:00 p.m. How to watch/listen: 📺: NBCSP 📻: 97.5 The Fanatic Pregame reading Even with a bit of time...
Indianapolis Colts offensive secret is balance! Injury news looks good! Billups busted! Pacers open!
Gameweek 9 is just around the corner, and once again, FPL managers are faced with one of the toughest choices each week — who to captain. Some of the usual big names continue to deliver, while a few new faces are starting to make their mark. With form, fixtures, and confidence all coming into play, […]
The dilemma for opposing defensive coordinators is clear the moment Ohio State lines up. Two elite receivers, one impossible choice. Jeremiah Smith continues to be the steady, dominant presence every defense must account for, while Carnell Tate’s rise into full-fledged WR1 form has made double coverage a losing game. The ripple effect can be seen […]
NFL insider believes that Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is keeping head coach Mike McDaniel around so the team can continue to lose.
The Washington Commanders held their first full practice of the week today. They are preparing for an away game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. The team’s most recent game was a bad road loss to the Dallas Cowboys — their 2nd consecutive loss. Starting QB Jayden Daniels has already been ruled […]
The Baltimore Ravens are signing veteran edge rusher Carl Lawson, per FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz. Lawson worked out for the Ravens earlier this week and impressed enough to earn a spot on the practice squad. He will add some much-needed depth to an outside linebacker room that is down to three healthy players on the […]
2025 stats: 67 IP, 55 G, 3.90 ERA / 3.70 FIP, 1.40 WHIP, 20.4 K%, 11.3 BB%, 0.5 fWAR After a mini breakout in 2024, José Buttó looked like he might be a reliable dude in the Mets’ grand plan. He pitched 74 innings (the first 38 of which came as a starter) and was […]

In the NFL’s Week 8, the Chiefs host the Washington Commanders for “Monday Night Football” on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7:15 p.m. Arrowhead Time.
