Hey Astros, Don’t Trade Parades!

Opinion: Stop Trying to Trade Isaac Paredes. The Astros Need Him. There, I said it. I don’t want the Houston Astros to trade Isaac Paredes. And every time I hear another expert, another national analyst, or even another Astros fan casually toss his name into trade proposals like he’s some expendable spare part, it makes […]

Aston Villa Team News vs Leeds United: Matty Cash, Andres Garcia, Marco Bizot

Aston Villa are off this week, at least from a competition standpoint, because they already advanced through to the knockout round of the UEFA Europa League. No Play-off round for them!

3 Right-Shot Defensemen Listed As Oilers' Trade Targets

There are disputed reports about what the Edmonton Oilers are targeting as we get closer to the March 6th trade deadline. Defensive troubles are obvious. But are they or are they not focusing on adding a defenseman?  Or will they simply bring back defense coach (and legendary Oilers D) Paul Coffey?  If they do ultimately hit the trade market looking for a blueliner, a right-shot d-man is their most pressing need. Preferably one that can serve in the top four when necessary.  Jac...

Jeff Hafley lands in surprising position in ranking of new head coach hires

The NFL offseason is officially upon us, which means discussing various topics that do not revolve around actual games being played on actual fields.

Pivotal Four-Game Stretch For BVB

From afar, BVB looks to be having a great campaign. They’ve collected 51 points in 22 Bundesliga games and are still alive in the Champions in February. But if you zoom in, you’ll still notice missed opportunities after missed opportunities. In the Bundesliga, four second-half blown leads (three of which were in the 89th minute […]

A Silly Idea to Help the NBA Slam Dunk Contest

NBA All-Star Weekend is done for another year. Reviews on the proceedings have been positive, generally. The players played harder in the main game(s). Damian Lillard was a feel-good story winning the Three-Point contest. Shooting Stars is a glorified intermission distraction, but I don’t think anyone minded it. (See note at bottom of this post, […]

Restoring the Standard: Finding the Titans 1-of-1 Clones in the 2026 NFL Draft

After a 3-14 season, the Titans are at a crossroads. New Head Coach Robert Saleh is bringing his “All Gas, No Brake” philosophy to Nashville. While Saleh runs a base 4-3, it’s far from traditional. His “Wide-9” system is built on explosiveness, violence, and positionless versatility. He doesn’t just want specialists; he wants “gap destroyers” […]
