He is a lock […]

The new league year started at 4 PM EST for the NFL, so contracts and trades are official. There is plenty of talent still available, with new names being added when teams are forced to make tough decisions concerning their roster.

The Ottawa Senators are breathing a big sigh of relief today, as the NHL has announced that the team will no longer lose their first-round pick in the 2026 Draft over the Evgenii Dadonov trade controversy of a few years back. Instead, the penalty has been revised so that the Sens will receive the 32nd and final pick of the first round and are not eligible for the Draft Lottery to change that position. They cannot trade that pick, and they will also pay a $1 million fine. #NHL announces that it...
The New England Patriots started free agency week by making a couple of fullback moves. Besides using the exclusive rights tender to retain Jack Westover, they also signed veteran Reggie Gilliam to a three-year contract worth $10.8 million. While those moves mean that the Patriots now have three fullbacks signed for 2026 — Gilliam, Westover […]

Mock Draft 3.0 for the Houston Texans kicks off with Houston a banger. This mock draft attempts to resemble the chaos and fluidity with which General Manager Nick Caserio moves around the draft board rather than how I would approach this class. Caserio averages FIVE trades per draft class, a daunting and mind-numbing number of […]
For various reasons, mostly to do with Duane’s continued poor health and the dismal state of the healthcare industry, he needs to step away from the virtual office and daily duties. And so, we are looking for a front page writer to take over Cub Tracks and Chicago Cubs/Baseball history unpacked. We are hoping that […]

Early this morning, the Chicago Bears announced that they have re-signed offensive lineman Jordan McFadden. The Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs reports this is a one-year contract. McFadden originally joined the Bears off waivers in January of 2025 from the Los Angeles Chargers, where he was a fifth-round pick from Clemson in 2023. While in L.A., […]
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
When the 2025 season began, the New England Patriots were coming off a 2024 season in which they had a 4-13 record (their second such record in a row), and ranked 30th in Defensive DVOA. Head coach Mike Vrabel and general manager Eliot Wolf did all they could to increase the power of that defense, […]
The Chargers have been one of the least active teams in the first wave of free agency, choosing mainly to re-sign their in-house targets through Tuesday and Wednesday. But on Thursday morning, several NFL insiders reported that former Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell was signing with the Chargers on a two-year, $9.25 million deal with […]
Tuesday night was fascinating for me as a sports fan. I started my night by watching my college’s depressingly bad basketball team lose to Northwestern to end its season in the Big Ten tournament, then switched the channel to watch Team USA lose in embarrassing fashion to Italy in the World Baseball Classic. At the […]
The Kentucky Wildcats gutted out a win Wednesday afternoon as they took down the LSU Tigers in Nashville.

Morning, all! Chris Young says that he’s seeing indications that the Rangers have had a better approach at the plate this spring and he hopes that means the offense won’t be repeating the futility of 2025. Evan Grant hosted a Q&A where he answered questions about how the bullpen will shake out, whether Ezequiel Duran […]
Reunions are always great after the trade deadline. Sometimes you have to wait until next season for a player to face their former team, or go and visit the city and play in front of fans that once supported them and cheered them on. Or, in the case of the Minnesota Wild's trade deadline acquisition...
The Las Vegas Raiders have kicked off the 2026 offseason by spending in free agency and it will continue. We will see how these deals work out, but the franchise most hope they have better success with high-ticket acquisitions than they did the past two offseason. In fact, the signings have been historically bad. According […]

The Miami Dolphins need wide receiver help, but this soon-to-be-released receiver shouldn't be on their radar.
Playing shortstop is a point of pride. Even now, years later, it still visits me in dreams — the slow chopper that turns into a barehand play; the diving backhand deep in the hole; the thrill of a perfectly timed double play. Shortstop lives at the heart of the diamond. Every ground ball feels like it might […]
Now that the first few days of free agency chaos have ended, it allows us to look at the new NFL landscape. In doing so, certain winners and losers appear, in the macro sense with the NFL as a whole, all the way down to a micro sense looking at individual divisions and teams. Here, […]
The quarterfinal matchups of the World Baseball Classic are set. We’ve had hours upon hours of great baseball on TV to get our spring off on the right foot, and the ability to watch some of our favorite players get their spring reps in games that mean something to millions of fans across the globe.

There are many players to grace a professional baseball diamond who have also had controversy overtake their careers in Major League Baseball. Some have put on a Yankees uniform at different times in their careers, and some have even had their Hall of Fame chances ruined because of said off-field issues. Darryl Strawberry’s career is […]
