When the 2025 schedule was released in the winter the visit to Cincinnati didn’t stand out as one that was particularly notable.

Divisional rival games are weird. In part, divisional rival games are fun because they are weird. It turns out playing twice a year gives teams so much information on each other that nearly anything can happen on any given night. When the Seattle Seahawks play the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, it will be the […]
Astros News Astros right-hander Hunter Brown finished third in Cy Young voting earlier this week.

Every year for the last few years, we write articles here about how to watch the Kansas City Royals. Just two decades ago, that you would have needed such a guide would have seemed ridiculous. Back then, to watch the Royals you would simply do so on cable television or listen on the radio. The […]

In his 2025 Brandon Nimmo season preview, Michael Drago wrote, “…while there will always be concerns about what a player will look like in their late-30s, Nimmo is still at an age where it’s not unreasonable to expect him to be a productive player in 2025.” And in evaluating his 2025 output, it’s safe to […]

LAZERZ…and a whole bunch of other games of limited import. A very pleasant Land Grant Trophy week to each and every one of you.
