Almost everyone wants to forget the weirdness of the 2020 MLB season. The Dodgers winning a piece of metal after a 60-game season that saw divisions reworked and paper cutouts as fans in the stands was a real clincher to the strange year. Taxi squads and constant COVID tests were the norm, and the St. […]
The Las Vegas Raiders’ had a great start to the 2026 NFL draft when they selected Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza with the No. 1 overall pick. Let’s examine by doing a Raiders’ second and third round mock draft for Friday: Second round No. 36, Ohio State defensive tackle Kayden McDonald The Raiders are in pretty […]
The New England Patriots did not use their No. 31 overall pick on a player Thursday night, instead trading up to select offensive tackle Caleb Lomu 28th overall. Now, attention turns to Friday where they are currently set to have two selections — one in both the second and third rounds. Who might be on […]
It was quite the night for the Cowboys. After spending much of the day at the top of the news cycle over rumors that George Pickens was going to be traded, followed shortly by the wide receiver officially signing his franchise tag, Dallas got busy in the first round. They made two trades, moving up […]
The Yankees drafted shortstop George Lombard Jr. in June 2023, back when he was an extremely toolsy but raw 18-year-old prospect. They chose ceiling over floor, something that they don’t always do, and so far, it’s hard to say they regret their choice. No, Lombard hasn’t made his MLB debut. He isn’t particularly close to […]
Newcastle United are not preparing for an immediate change of manager despite ongoing pressure following recent results, with no indication that Eddie Howe will either be sacked or leave on his own in the short term. The club’s current focus remains on stabilizing performances during the final stretch of the season, and Howe is seemingly […]
Currently, there are more questions than answers regarding the 2026 WNBA season. One thing is certain, though: The Indiana Fever will be one of the most fascinating teams to watch. (And you’ll be able to do so, as all 44 of their games are on national TV.) They are at the epicenter of women’s basketball […]
Barcelona have lost Lamine Yamal to injury for the rest of the season but the teenager is expected to be fit in time to feature for Spain at World Cup 2026 this summer. The Catalan giants and the national team have clashed over the use of Yamal throughout this season and there may now be […]
The 2026 NFL Draft continues tonight in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The New Orleans Saints are currently slated to pick at 41 in the second round and 74 in the third round, but of course that could change depending on any trades. As usual, ESPN and NFL Network will air the draft simultaneously and this year ABC will continue to also […]
Today, we have an interview with David Satcher, a high school football coach and the father of Grand Canyon’s Alina Satcher. Read his answers to learn more about college softball. Note: Responses were edited for clarity When and why did Alina first get into softball? Funny story. When Alina was 8, she won an elementary […]
This weekend is the biggest weekend of not just this season, but for a while for Purdue baseball. The program last made the NCAA Tournament in 2018, when it was a 2 seed in the Chapel Hill regional and went 2-1. The last time Purdue was in position to return to the tournament was in […]
The situation for the Phillies has gotten beyond the level of ugliness. It’s so dire that I was actually encouraged by them getting to extra innings before losing on Thursday. On the other hand, the Phillies’ opponents this weekend have had just about everything go right this season. Is it possible that the Braves somehow […]
The lights were perfect. The stage was set. And for a few hours, the city of Pittsburgh reminded the football world exactly why it sits at the heart of the sport. Inside the building, the franchise’s past stood shoulder to shoulder with its future. Hall of Fame icons like Ben Roethlisberger and Terry Bradshaw drew […]
The Chicago Bears unexpectedly took Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman with the 25th overall pick last night, and having the best player available align with a massive need in the secondary was as perfect an outcome as general manager Ryan Poles could have hoped for. The first round, in general, has left things pretty good for […]
The numbers are in for Will Anderson’s record setting $150 million contract extension with the Texans so let’s see just how it stacks up with the rest of the league and how it may help contracts move forward in the future. First the basic details of the contract. Anderson’s three year extension contains $150 million […]
A message from managing editor Matt Germack As I get ready to graduate next month, today is my final day at Testudo Times. That’s probably a good thing for Maryland athletics. I’ve been an editor here for two 4-8 football seasons and a 12-21 basketball season; the Crab Five exploded during my semester abroad in […]
UEFA has asked FIFA to "extend worldwide" Gianluca Prestianni's suspension for use of a gay slur, which could affect the winger's World Cup participation with Argentina. The post Argentina soccer star’s ban for gay slur could see him miss out on World Cup appeared first on Outsports .
As we move forward with more men’s basketball player reviews, it’s now time to analyze the season of Jake West, the 6-foot-3 freshman guard from Philadelphia. The Good After a dormant first half of his first year, West erupted in the new year, emerging as a starting combo guard for the ‘Cats. From the Rutgers […]
A lot of people are making assumptions about Sean McVay’s “body language” and perceived behavior when the Rams met with the media after drafting Ty Simpson, suggesting that he’s upset about it. Is there any truth to that? We can’t know from our perspective. “Reading” a person’s body language at a press conference is an […]
There’s no linear path to winning the Stanley Cup. Losses are inevitable, meaning that, from time to time, your team won’t have a good performance. If you’ve experienced an Edmonton Oilers playoff run before, you’ll know all about this. They were 2-0 down to L.A. last year, 3-2 down to Vancouver the year before, and…
Happy Shawn Bates Penalty Shot Day. After last night’s AHL results, there is officially nothing Islanders playoff-related to discuss anymore except the past and perhaps hopes for the future. The end of Bridgeport’s 25-year run as the Islanders’ AHL affiliate came with a frustratingly familiar, quick playoff exit. The Bridgeport Islanders (nee Sound Tigers) were […]

Manchester City will be sweating on the fitness of their midfield maestro, Rodri, for the FA Cup semifinal against Southampton FC. Rodri suffered a groin injury in last weekend’s monumental win over Arsenal, and it forced to miss out on the midweek win over Burnley FC. The last update Pep Guardiola gave on the situation […] The post Manchester City vs Southampton Team News: Rodri, Ruben Dias, Jack Stephens appeared first on The Sports Bank .

Once again, it is time to select a “player of the game” for the Hurricanes in their 2-1 win over the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night. Once again, it’s a difficult task. You could choose Fred Andersen, who had a near flawless game in net. Unlike game two where there was some puck luck involved, […]
