So, it’s pretty obvious that the Black Friday game on Amazon is a cynical ploy by the monopolistic retailer to keep people at home so they don’t go shopping elsewhere, right? The weird thing about that is, despite this, the ads for said cynical ploy to keep people home shopping on Amazon is littered with […]

The Colts season in a vacuum from the negative side

Stampede Blue’s own, Clydesdales, presented the Indianapolis Colts season in a vacuum from the positive side. That may be all well and good, but let’s take a look from the inverse. As he put it, we are entering the “when it matters phase” and the luster has certainly worn off the feel good story that […]

Light flyweight champion Carlos Canizales got yet another stroke of bad luck this week. After agreeing to return to Thailand to battle former minimumweight champ Knockout CP Freshmart, ESPN’s Renato Bermudez announced yesterday that Canizales had withdrawn.

Erik Spoelstra is already making a legitimate case to earn long overdue award

Heading into the 2025-26 season, the Miami Heat were expected to have a bounce back campaign from the Jimmy Butler drama that took over last year.

First Half Open Thread

In the words of former Bulldog quarterback and head coach Ray Goff, “If you don’t think that Tech is Georgia’s biggest rival, just lose to them once and you’ll find out.” There are other rivalry games I more thoroughly enjoy winning. But there’s no annual rivalry more miserable to lose than this one. The Jackets […]

The Houston Texans have announced that C.J. Stroud has cleared the concussion protocol and will start Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts. The move was certainly expected and might have seemed like a formality, but nothing is guaranteed by the concussion protocol.

3 things that stood out from Wisconsin’s win over Providence: Badgers splash in transfer portal again

How 1 team has already equaled last year’s win total

The Mountain West has gotten off to a rocky start to begin the 2025-26 season.

UNC vs. NC State: By the Numbers

Welp, last week I got some things right. Totally whiffed on the, “Surely Manny Diaz can’t outcoach Bill Belichick.” Net result: 25-32 rather than 27-21. Moving on. Don’t want to talk about. OK, I lied. Much talk later in the special teams section. I get long-winded in the unit sections this week, so we’ll skip […]
