Ohio State failed to achieve two of its three ultimate goals this season, defeating Michigan but losing the Big Ten Championship Game to Indiana and falling in the first round of the College Football Playoff to Miami.

Could there be a better opportunity for the Oilers to finally lock down their first three-game win streak of the season than on a night when the rival Los Angeles Kings were in town? I didn’t think so. If Edmonton couldn’t get fired up for their first matchup of the season against a tired Kings…
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford suffered an injury to a finger on his throwing hand in the opening round of the playoffs against the Carolina Panthers. Whether it was due to the injury or not, Stafford easily had one of his worst games of the season. Both games against Carolina were his two-lowest graded […]
The North Carolina Tar Heels survived a home scare against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons as the team in blue stayed undefeated in home games with their three-point win over the team from Winston Salem.

Since the start of the offseason, all San Diego Padres fans and many sports journalists have discussed the need for starting pitching for the 2026 season.

By now you already know the play in discussion. William Kyle comes barreling down the lane in Pittsburgh. Nate Kingz was wise enough to miss the three and set up his teammate. Nobody boxes out Kyle and he rebounds, cocks the ball back and flushes a put-back dunk for the ages. Just give Kyle the […]

The Kansas City Chiefs’ season is over — and after finishing with a disappointing 6–11 record, they enter the offseason facing a long list of questions.

The New Jersey Devils have been trying to trade Dougie Hamilton for months, and haven't had any luck thanks to Hamilton getting involved in the process. The right-handed defenceman has a 10-team trade list and used his control last offseason, denying a deal that would have sent him to the San Jose Sharks. The ironic part is the Sharks are one of the biggest surprises this season and sit in a playoff spot, so Sportnet's Elliotte Friedman wonders if the talks will continue. Elliotte Friedm...

#1 – Can’t get to the line if you don’t attack the rim Let’s get the referee topic out of the way before we dig in. The Celtics’ low number of free throws last night, and overall this season, isn’t caused by a conspiracy against Boston. Free-throw volume is highly correlated with rim pressure. However, […]
BOSTON — San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was a 7-foot-4 problem the Boston Celtics couldn’t solve, no matter the adjustment. “He’s really good at what he does,” Derrick White admitted after Boston’s 100-95 loss. “Just the way he protects the paint and still can get out to the corner is special. You have to […]
The Philadelphia Eagles earned the NFC East title and the No. 3 seed, and will play host in the first round of the 2026 NFL Playoffs to the No. 6 San Francisco 49ers, who went 12-5 and still didn’t win the NFC West. The Eagles have one of the NFL’s most talented, and least productive, […]
There was plenty of buzz last night about former Falcons coach Matt LaFleur potentially losing his job after his Green Bay Packers collapsed against the Chicago Bears, and whether the Falcons would scoop him up if that happened.

The TCU Horned Frogs took another blow at the cornerback position, with redshirt senior Avery Helm departing for UNLV after three seasons in Fort Worth.

I’m not gonna lie. I started writing this article in the third quarter of that game last night because I wanted to get a head start on a quick recap on what looked like a devastating end to the season. I was just going to phone in as straightforward a snap counts and starts article […]
The NFL coaching carousel is in full force following decisions made by Baltimore and Miami to part ways with their respective head coaches. It creates more competition between teams in search of their new leader. It also brings more intrigue with John Harbaugh’s remarkable resume and Mike McDaniel’s strategic offensive mind. Harbaugh will command the […]
It was another disastrous performance by the Vancouver Canucks , in a 5-0 drubbing at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night. The team is seemingly on the verge of selling some assets, starting with pending unrestricted free agent Kiefer Sherwood. But the gritty, hard-nosed forward is letting his current teammates have it before his impending exit. It's the NHL… F-----g bring it every night. To not be ready or just get out-willed in certain areas, it's unacceptable. It's ...
