Joan Laporta urged to ‘tell us the real reason’ Lionel Messi left Barcelona

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has been urged to tell fans the “real reason” Lionel Messi left the club back in 2021. Messi made an emotional secret return to Barcelona this week, with Laporta insisting the “Camp Nou is his home.” Laporta also said he “doesn’t regret” Messi’s departure in 2021 and Xavier Vilajoana, former Barcelona board member […]

Mississippi State Bulldogs Preview

It’s November 12th and Missouri’s most likely win occurs in three days when the Mississippi State Bulldogs come to down for Senior Night in Columbia. The remainder of Missouri’s schedule lays out thusly, with win probabilities added (and, it should be mentioned, not adjusted for the loss of Beau Pribula): So this is an important […]

Orioles season review: Grayson Rodriguez

The story of the 2025 Orioles is as much about who didn’t play because they were hurt as much as it is about how well players played when healthy. Grayson Rodriguez represents this idea taken to its most extreme. He is a pitcher who the Orioles and fans were counting on to at least be […]

Morning Flurries: MacKinnon named first star of the week

After a very successful weekend western Canada road trip where the Colorado Avalanche picked up four points in the standings, Nathan MacKinnon was recognized for his efforts by the NHL. Scoring 10 points of his own and four goals in just three games played, no other player was more worthy of the honor than MacKinnon. […]

Midweek Musings – Can They Do It?

Penn State is 3-6 on the season, with several heartbreaking losses during their current 6-game skid. But according to many advanced metrics, the Lions are actually a good (not great) team. In order to “guarantee” a bowl game, the Lions must go 6-6 on the season. Bowls are typically reserved for teams that have at […]

Wilkes Weekly: New faces coming through

It’s not easy to be an AHL franchise, about as soon as things go well then everything changes. Wilkes-Barre has had to deal with three of their top five scorers (Danton Heinen, Ville Koivunen, Ryan Graves) getting called up and then they lost AHL October goalie of the month Sergei Murashov on top of that. […]

Macklin Celebrini Embarrasses Wild in 2-1 Loss

That's Wild Macklin Celebrini and his band of San Jose Sharks came to town and just made the Minnesota Wild look a little silly. Despite outshooting them by a substantial margin and having chances that they never really connected on, the Sharks walked over the Wild to earn a 2-1 overtime win...

Who is new Ohio State defensive line commit Emmanuel Ruffin?

Ohio State’s 2026 recruiting class is heating up in a big way. The Buckeyes have made several major moves recently, flipping multiple high-profile recruits from other programs and solidifying their standing among the nation’s elite. The most notable of those moves in my opinion came when four-star defensive lineman Emmanuel Ruffin flipped his commitment from […]

How many wins will the 49ers finish with this season?

It’s usually doom and gloom after a loss. The finger-pointing among fans is non-stop, the playoffs shouldn’t be discussed, and somebody needs to be fired. Heading into Week 11, the San Francisco 49ers are on the outside looking in of the NFC playoff picture and sit third in the NFC West standings. Let’s ignore the […]

Big Ten Football Power Poll: Week 11

Last week we got the games we all deserved. Indiana at Penn State and Oregon at Iowa were classics. Amazing finishes from both the Hoosiers and Ducks to pull out last second wins when it looked like they were on the ropes. Then there was Washington laying a complete egg losing in the sleet to […]

“They made the last play”: Celtics filled with regret after collapse to Embiid-less 76ers

Rather than ride the momentum of a second straight road win, the Celtics left Philadelphia reflecting on a missed opportunity on Tuesday night. Hours before tip-off, word broke that 76ers star Joel Embiid would sit out Philadelphia’s rivalry matchup with Boston due to right knee soreness, giving the Celtics an immediate advantage. But instead of […]

How Victor Wembanyama sparked a statement win in Chicago

For nearly three quarters in Chicago on Monday, Victor Wembanyama looked ordinary – well, at least for his extraordinary standards. The 7-foot-5 forward moved carefully, probing but never truly penetrating the Chicago Bulls’ defense. He came into the game on a slump, averaging just around 17 points per game over the previous three games. His […]
