The Green Bay Packers and Miami Dolphins are going to be tied together for the foreseeable future after the Dolphins hired head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan from Green Bay this offseason, on top of other additions from the Packers that included quarterback Malik Willis.

The Orioles made the playoffs in 2024, had high expectations in 2025 only to crash and burn with a losing record. That sounds a bit familiar. They’re off to a decent start this year, but have dropped five of six recently, including three of four on this road trip. Baltimore Orioles (10-12) vs. Kansas City […]
The Portland Trail Blazers fell to the San Antonio Spurs 111-98 in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series on the road Sunday evening. In the franchise’s first playoff game in five years, the seventh-seeded Blazers put up a respectable showing against the second-seeded Spurs, even in a loss. Blazers All-Star Deni Avdija was great […]
Finally! After years of grueling disappointment, the Silver and Black played their first NBA playoff game since 2019 last night.

The San Francisco 49ers solved one of their contract sagas on Monday when star left tackle Trent Williams agreed to a two-year, $50 million contract extension that includes $37 million guaranteed.

The Philadelphia Flyers need to do it again. After an emphatic Game 1 win over the Penguins, they return to the ice to try and leave Pittsburgh with an improbable 2-0 series lead.

On Monday, the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Chicago Bears were picking up the fifth-year option on starting right tackle Darnell Wright. Wright is the first-ever first-round draft pick of general manager Ryan Poles, and I would imagine the Bears plan to work out a contract extension for their 24-year-old 2nd Team All-Pro. […]
Former UConn big man and Kentucky Basketball transfer portal target Eric Reibe announced his commitment to USC on Monday.

In case you need reminding, go ahead and rewatch Sunday’s game to see how much the Sixers miss Joel Embiid when he’s out. The team looked hopeless without the big fella, getting crushed by the Boston Celtics 123-91 in Game 1 Sunday. Sure, the Celtics are the favorites to get out of the East and […]
Becky Burke’s radio can be a source of important tidbits of information about Arizona women’s basketball. In late February, the Arizona women’s basketball head coach mentioned that the team had an unannounced verbal commitment from an international player. Evidence pointed to Polish wing Karolina Ułan. That has proven to be correct after Ułan announced her […]
