With some questions looming in the secondary, the Detroit Lions were in need of some insurance at safety and corner, and they took one big step toward finding some support by signing versatile defensive back Christian Izien. With experience at all five positions in the secondary, Izien gives the Lions a young, hungry player who […]
After yesterday, we have semifinal matchups that are set. On one side of the bracket, the United States will face off against the Dominican Republic, perhaps the dream matchup of the organizers of the event. On the other side of the bracket, Italy, the tournament darling, will see . How did we get here? Let’s […]

After Friday’s four-point victory over Ohio State, Michigan head coach Dusty May was asked if he liked close games. “If we win, yes, I love it,” he quipped. He must have loved Saturday’s game against Wisconsin. In a contest that started out slowly but heated up late, Michigan prevailed in a thriller thanks to a […]
Happy Selection Sunday Eve, to all that celebrate. Our beloved Boilermakers are finding a rhythm again and will play the best team in the nation tomorrow, Michigan, before finding out what seed they are and where they will play. One of the most anticipated days of the College Basketball Season is selection Sunday. Teams will […]
I am afraid to write about Alperen Sengun. This is not an appeal for sympathy. These are certainly not the worst problems I’ve encountered in my life. But, I will say that I have received literal death threats for observing that Alperen Sengun does not play defense very well. If the internet is a cesspool, […]
The Athletics offense picked up where it left off yesterday, taking advantage of the dry, hot Arizona air to bash four home runs in a 12-1 rout over the Kansas City Royals. This afternoon showed why the A’s could be a dangerous team this season: multiple hitters throughout the lineup can change a game with […]
1903 Possibly the weirdest roster snafus in a single season continue, as Harry Gleason (brother of future White Sox manager Kid Gleason) is signed by Chicago — but chooses to report to his former team, the Boston Red Sox (née Americans), instead! The comedy of outlaw-player errors began when George Davis, after having doubled his […]
At this stage of the season, the margins disappear, and the stakes get brutally clear. When Roma travel to face Como at the beautiful Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia Djarum (it’s really something, just right by the water), the situation doesn’t require much framing: Roma need three points against their biggest rival for fourth place. A respectable […]
Meet the Mets Yesterday the Mets placed Justin Hagenman on the 60-day injured list with a rib fracture. In a corresponding move, the Mets claimed familiar face Dicky Lovelady off waivers from the Nationals and added him to the roster. David Stearns is demonstrating that he has learned lessons from the failures of 2025, writes […]
Thursday, March 19th DAZN, 8:00 pm ET, Salita Promotions. From San Juan, Puerto Rico. Main event is Felix Parrilla vs Jose Velasquez. Should be a showcase if Parrilla is a legit prospect, but Velasquez is not a pushover, even at 36. Friday, March 20th DAZN, 3:00 pm ET, Michael Conlan vs Kevin Walsh. From Belfast, […]

All the details from FC Dallas’ come from behind draw.
With another championship on the line, UConn men’s basketball once again fell short, falling to St. John’s 72-52 in the Big East Tournament Championship. To add injury to insult after the Red Storm dominated the Huskies for all 40 minutes, UConn point guard Silas Demary Jr. suffered an ankle injury and had to be carried […]
Nico Fernández Mercau gave his best Alonso Martínez impression, bagging a first-half brace as New York City FC bested Colorado Rapids 3-1 in the Bronx to stay to top of the Eastern Conference.
It hasn’t consistently been the most beautiful basketball, but Team USA is 3-0 at the FIBA Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Italy failed to threaten Team USA, as the Americans’ defensive attentiveness and superior shotmaking steadily swelled their lead over the course of the contest, leading to a 93-59 win. […]
The Cleveland Browns needed some inside defensive line help after the 2025 season had concluded. There were some answers already in place, but also some question marks. What didn’t need to be solved was rookie DT Mason Graham’s (6’-4”, 315 pounds) season. He came as advertised after being selected fifth overall in last year’s NFL […]

A win, a draw and a loss. A week that somehow managed to contain the full Reading experience: a soaring high, a grim but predictable low, and then a surprisingly composed performance against one of the league’s form sides. After the victory at Luton Town, it was almost inevitable we’d be flat against Mansfield Town. […]
On the surface, Kyle Tucker has struggled at the plate when only accounting for his batting average (.200, 3-15), but he has demonstrated great patience at the plate. Tucker has only appeared in eight games so far this spring, as he missed a generous amount of time to tend to his wife for the birth […]
It has been four years since both the Ohio State men’s and women’s basketball teams have made the NCAA Tournament. But, my friends, that drought (all of the men’s team’s doing) ends today, as we already know that Kevin McGuff’s women’s squad will host the first two rounds by virtue of being one of the […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
When the Detroit Lions hired offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, the position group whose value shot up the most was the tight end room. While Petzing has coached multiple offensive positions, arguably his best years have been with the tight ends. We’ve seen what the Arizona Cardinals had with tight end Trey McBride, and the Lions […]
This past week and the next week have long been my favorite two week period in the college basketball calendar. Championship Week and the first week of the tournament. There are so many basketball games, so many stories, tons of game winners, and just generally fun games to watch. But the central event to each […]
Depends on who you talk to, when Evan Brown was a starting guard with the Arizona Cardinals, he was either really good at his job, or he was horrible at what he did. The front office might have given Brown a final statement when they released him late this week. And now, he wasn’t unemployed […]
