Braves Minor League Recap: System flexes power

(24-15) Gwinnett Stripers 1, (15-24) Norfolk Tides 4 Box Score It was a rude return to the Stripers for starting pitcher Carlos Carassco who was greeted with a three run home run in the first inning, along with an RBI single in the second for a grand total of four runs – which is more […]

Speed kills. Northwestern basketball proved it Friday night.

After a frenetic 76-52 victory over Boston University, Nick Martinelli was a little out of breath. After playing a team-high 31 minutes, the senior forward was clearly still winded as he approached the podium for his postgame presser. Yet when he was asked about his team’s fast pace, he easily found the energy to smile. […]

Houston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars: Secure the Win

The Texans are now in must-win territory after dropping several games they had a chance to win late in the fourth quarter. Houston’s defense might be the best in the entire league this year, but it doesn’t matter if they can’t score points on a consistent basis. The Texans’ offensive line hasn’t been able to […]

Second Half Open Thread

What a strange feeling. This is normally the slot in which I would be talking about what Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs need to do to claw their way back into the game. However in a zippy twist on their normal pattern the Red and Black shook of their customary first half stupor and cruised to a […]

Probable Formation: Roma vs Udinese

Roma is set to face Udinese on Sunday in the last game before the international break. Having played on Thursday against Rangers, the team might include some fresh players in the lineup against the Zebrette. However, Gasperini will still be missing key attackers such as Paulo Dybala, Evan Ferguson, and Leon Bailey due to injuries, […]

Wisconsin to start Danny O’Neil at QB vs. Washington

The Wisconsin Badgers are making another quarterback change, but it’s not the ones that fans have been calling for. Wisconsin is expected to start Danny O’Neil at quarterback, On3’s Pete Nakos reported. That matches our reporting from earlier in the week that O’Neil was expected to start after taking a majority of the first-team reps. […]

Is It Really A Record?

Sometimes, I wonder if things are just posted to social media for a reaction. We see politicians saying things that are wildly inaccurate in the news cycle, but sports are pretty cut-and-dry when it comes to records that have been achieved because all it takes is a quick glance at history books. The man pictured to the left is Matt Salhany, and he is currently playing for the ECHL's Adirondack Thunder where he apparently set a record tonight. Having read the social media post a few times, I'm ...

Today in Blue Jays History: Roy Halladay

It is hard to believe that it has been eight years (yesterday, I thought I had scheduled this for yesterday) since Roy Halladay died in that plane crash. Few deaths have affected me as much. Talking about another friend who died a few years ago, a friend said, ‘Time flies when you are dead.’ It […]

What we learned from the Spurs win over the Rockets

It’s been years since I’ve been to an actual theater — many years. Maybe that’s because some of my visits didn’t exactly turn out to be great successes. I remember one in particular, back in 2008. I was working in London at the time as an intern for a major company. My duties included corporate […]

Lessons in Vanderbilt Football: Texas

That was a really unenjoyable game in Austin for 3 quarters. The Commodores were down 17-0 after the first quarter mostly due to a 75-yard TD on the Longhorn’s first play from scrimmage and a Diego Pavia fumble on the 4th play of Vanderbilt’s first drive.  Vanderbilt would cut the lead to 14 at 24-10 […]
