Seahawks enter 2026 with the youngest roster in the NFC West

With the NFL Draft finished up, most NFL rosters have more or less been settled. Of course there will be a few veteran signings between now and training camp (see Dante Fowler signing with the Seattle Seahawks), but for the most part rosters are set. This is now the time of year where media and […]

The Rap-Up: Jump scaring through the first week

Boo! Halloween may be at the tail end of this week, but the spooks and scares are all over the Toronto Raptors’ opening schedule. After getting bullied by Giannis Antetokounmpo, Anthony Davis, and Cooper Flagg, the Raps’ schedule doesn’t get any less daunting. This week’s opponents feature an alien, Aquaman, a Spider, and someone likely […]

Today In NHL History - Jones Boards Bergeron

On October 27th in 2007, Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Randy Jones brutally boarded Patrice Bergeron face-first into the glass, leaving the Boston Bruins forward unconscious with three minutes remaining in the first period. Bergeron exited the ice strapped to a stretcher, having suffered a broken nose and concussion on the play, and missed the remaining 72 games of the season. An apologetic

Today In NHL History - Richards Hits Booth

On October 24th in 2009, Philadelphia Flyers captain Mike Richards blindsided winger David Booth with a vicious hit to the head rendering the Florida Panthers forward bloodied and unconscious.

Richards received a five minute major and ten minute game misconduct but was not subsequently fined or

Texas Two-Step continues in Houston vs. Rockets and KD

For the second game in a row, the Nets almost pulled off the impossible. After trailing by as much as 26 in the third quarter, the Nets were led by a red hot Cam Thomas, whose scoring single handedly brought them back against the Spurs. But yet again, the inexperience and youth of our beloved […]

A Caleb Williams Week 8 Progress Report — Is It Time to Worry?

Back-to-back clunker games for Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams don’t have me wanting to pull the plug on this experience, but they are a cause for concern. CHICAGO BEARS WEEK 8:  Game Recap  |  Instant Grades  |  The Nightcap To be clear, I’m not sounding alarms just yet. However, I  am  noticing some patterns that, if they continue throughout the duration of this season, will have me raising questions about the long-term future of the position. My b...

Trying to Stay Undefeated, Ayo Dosunmu vs. Trae Young, Can Patrick Williams Keep It Up? And Other Bulls Bullets

After a nice trial run last week, the Chicago Bulls are about to sprint into the 2025-26 season. They are in store for a busy and difficult week, beginning with a matchup against one of the Eastern Conference’s darkhorse contenders. Then, after welcoming Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan back into the United Center for a revenge game, they will finish the week with two straight against the New York Knicks.

Reflecting on the Last Yankee Dynasty

Several years back, Buster Olney, the former Yankees beat writer for the New York Times and a professor emeritus of baseball journalism, wrote a book called The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty. If you haven’t already, you should read it. In his telling, the Yankee dynasty ended in the Arizona desert in 2001, when […]

Fan Notes from the Patriots’ win over the Browns

I hope everyone got outside and did something fun this weekend. For some reason I’ll never know or understand, we’ve all seen the sun out past 4:30 p.m. ET for the last time this year. The extra hour of sleep and the extra hour of staying out at the bars used to be nice – […]

Week 10 Opening Odds: Tigers lick their wounds into the bye week

If you’re in Missouri this Sunday, the weather matches the mood. Mizzou is coming off a heartbreaking loss — literally by inches — to Vanderbilt, which effectively puts them in do-or-die territory for their fledgling College Football Playoff hopes. Even then, the Tigers may have lost starting QB Beau Pribula for the season after a […]

Colts’ Monday Morning Awards: Week 8 vs. Titans

7-1. Colts win their fourth game in a row, all convincingly, this time by 24 points against division rivals Tennessee Titans. There were some ghosts surrounding this team and games that they should be winning easily on paper, so it was nice leaving them behind and demolishing the Titans always feels good. Now we enter […]

What We Learned from the Spurs win over the Nets

It still seems unfinished. That’s the thought that kept running through my head all throughout Sunday’s tilt with the Brooklyn Nets. The Spurs are undefeated. The vibes are high. Everyone is pleased as punch with the roaring start this new season has gotten off to. Wemby has arrived. Castle has ascended. Harper looks legit. The […]

From Heartbreak To Hope: Sunderland’s Rise To The Top

I was there. 24 years ago. January 2001. Don Hutchinson and Stan Varga, with his luscious long hair, steering us to a 2-0 away win at West Ham’s Upton Park. We sat second in the Premier League after that result. I was only 12 and had just become a fully invested Sunderland fan, thinking that […]

Some more thoughts…on returning to the area

I’m going to change things up a little bit in this week’s subscriber-only post. Instead of talking about the Tampa Bay Lightning, I’m going to get a little more personal. For those around here that might not be aware, up until about three weeks ago, my time at Raw Charge, both as an independent blog […]
