Throwing for 4,000 yards is the standard for upper-echelon quarterbacks in the NFL. Much like 1,000-yard seasons are the standard for running backs and wide receivers, 4,000-yard seasons from quarterbacks are indicative of a solid-to-great season. Players such as Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes II, and Josh Allen regularly achieve the feat. Behind them is often […]
There is something comfortingly familiar (and disappointingly familiar) about where Roma find themselves as this season draws to a close. Champions League qualification is still dangling just close enough to inspire belief, yet just far enough away to remind supporters how many missed opportunities came before it. After last week’s emphatic 4-0 dismantling of Fiorentina, […]
Earlier this afternoon, the Atlanta Braves announced the passing of Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox. He was 84. In six decades in the organization, Cox spent two separate stints as Braves manager; served as the team’s general manager; and was a player with the organization’s minor leagues prior to the beginning of his coaching […]
Live from Delaware, it’s Saturday Night! I, NAS204PSU, am here at BTSC to bring you this Saturday Night Open Thread (aka SNOT). Every human that ever has been has something in common: a mother.

The San Francisco Giants Opening Day battery for the last three seasons is as gone as gone can be. Hours after announcing the shocking trade of Patrick Bailey to the Cleveland Guardians, the Giants placed the star of their rotation, two-time All-Star Logan Webb, on the 15-Day Injured List. Webb, who has led the National […]
After all the buildup and months of trials and tribulations, we have finally reached the Mountain West Softball Championship. Appropriately, this ended up being a matchup between the two best teams in the conference all year, and two teams that will remain in the Mountain West in 2027: Grand Canyon and Nevada. The former, in […]
This was a tough one for the Friar Faithful to take in. The San Diego Padres didn’t do a whole lot to help their case as they lost their second consecutive game to the St. Louis Cardinals. It’s been a difficult stretch that has been marked by a poor Friars’ offense. But the offense wasn’t […]
The San Antonio Spurs once again reclaimed home-court advantage by winning their first road game of the Western Conference Semifinals. It was a tightly contested battle that came down to fourth-quarter heroics. Victor Wembanyama had the best playoff game of his young career, putting up 39 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 blocks on the way […]
The Pelicans pick is the main attraction, but the event will get much more entertaining if the Bucks pick jumps.
Well, that was quite the way to open the series. The Colorado Rockies survived another blown lead to manage an exciting extra-inning win against the Philadelphia Phillies last night.

Saturday notes… Cubs lineup: Rangers lineup: Edward Cabrera, RHP vs. Jack Leiter, RHP Edward Cabrera has been remarkably consistent this year.

First Pitch: 1:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy Forty games of baseball is probably “enough” games of baseball to feel like you have a sense of the team you’re watching. After 40 games, my sense is roughly the same as it was after 34 games, when I remarked that […]
A frustrated spoke to the press following Atlético Madrid’s 1-0 home defeat to Celta Vigo on Saturday evening. Asked what this side needs to win, Simeone chose a blunt answer. “That’s a question that would take much longer to answer than I have time for,” he said. “I’d say (Atleti’s next opponent) Osasuna.” Diego Simeone […]

In the preseason, nobody circled James Madison on Northwestern’s calendar. Why would they? The Dukes were unranked. The schedule featured the likes of North Carolina, Maryland and Boston College. Turns out nobody told JMU they weren’t supposed to be here. Shelley Klaes brought her No. 22 Dukes to Martin Stadium and ended up crafting a […]
The spring volleyball portal window has been kind to the Arizona Wildcats. While the team lost two to the late portal, they have added two in the past several days and there are indications that a third is on the way. The Wildcats announced the signing of former San Diego opposite Kennedy Osunsanmi on May […]
4pm CT on SECN+. If ever you questioned the baseball gods, last night’s game taught us what happens when they let Cthulu sub in for Jobu for a day. To start, rain kept postponing the opening pitch. Then, Corbs kept The Spice in (as he should have done last week) for 7 IP of 5 […]
Exiting another disappointing season, the Miami Heat have a lot of questions they must answer heading into the 2026 offseason. They were able to duck the luxury tax last season, avoiding any repeater tax penalties. And they are entering this offseason with over $35 million in projected space under the luxury tax, so they will […] The post The Heat’s biggest hole entering 2026 summer is quite obvious appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
At a time when the WNBA didn’t want out players, NY Liberty player Sue Wicks was publicly out and proud of it.
All things considered, it has been a sensational 2026 for Manchester United. After a dismal first half of the campaign, which saw them lose to League Two side Grimsby Town in the EFL Cup, Rúben Amorim was sacked as manager with the club sixth in the Premier League table. Darren Fletcher took charge on an […]
The NBA Playoffs roll onward today as the Cleveland Cavaliers try to turn around their second-round series against the Detroit Pistons while the Los Angeles Lakers desperately flail against the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder. Both series switch venues for the first time. Maybe that will make a difference? Either way, you can talk about […]
Going behind the scenes for an insider’s view of the Indianapolis Colts is always an anticipated event. Hearing from Chris Ballard and the scouts is worthwhile as they sort through the lengthy draft process. This year’s version is “The Draft Plan”. While it is certainly worth the watch, it’s hard to not be a bit […]
The lead never felt comfortable. It was weird. Ungainly. 7-1. Unsightly. 9-1. The offense was ugly. Stilted. 11-1. We were making more shots than the Wolves, sure, but that felt like a technicality. 14-1. Keldon hit a three. We still looked off. There were five minutes left in the first quarter and the Wolves had […]
