BOSTON — Celtics rookie center Amari Williams appeared destined for a full season in the G League. Then, in one of the biggest games of the year thus far, he was suddently tasked with slowing down Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren, playing substantial rotation minutes, and helping securing the game-saving rebound. On Wednesday, the Celtics […]
Stability has been the name of the game along the New England Patriots offensive line for much of the season. However, last week’s 26-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals put an end to it: the team lost its entire left side to injury, with tackle Will Campbell suffering a sprained MCL and guard Jared Wilson […]

Poise has been a common word to describe Drake Maye through his second NFL season.

I’m not […]
After 12 weeks of football, the New England Patriots are close to their bye week. There is one hurdle left to clear: the New York Giants, who will visit them at Gillette Stadium on Monday night. A lot has happened for both teams since they met in preseason in August. So, to find out more […]

It all starts with today’s slate of games of Thanksgiving, then an offering tomorrow for Black Friday, and finally capped off with contests on Sunday and Monday. As we have done in past seasons, our staff […]
Great game and win from the Celtics. It always amazes me when fans turn on their own players. They were all puffed up to begin the game but hated on every player, including Cade, at the end. I love Payton Pritchard. The kid plays so hard. Shortest guy on the court got that last rebound after the missed free throw. Opinion was mixed on the Celtics' court. Some hated it and some loved it. Poor Jaylen wiill never live that hairline gaff down. The "C...
The Toronto Maple Leafs didn't appear to like the game that Brandon Carlo played once he got to the team and finished out the season. He was a trade deadline acquisition from the Boston Bruins and they overpaid considering how the other side has turned out for Boston and how the Maple Leafs aren't happy with the result on their end. This led to the Maple Leafs attempting to trade Carlo in multiple different ways in the offseason. According to Nick Kypreos, "There's a strong suggestion Toronto ...

It’s Thanksgiving, at least among some of the lesser hockey countries. So today, I’m going to list a reason that I’m thankful for each NHL team. That’s it. No gimmicks, or clever twists. I promise I’m not even going to do the “Thanks for reminding us it could always be worse” backhanded compliment thing to anyone. Just one sincere, if slightly bizarre, reason to say a quick thanks to every team. >> Read the full post at The Athletic (Want to read this post on The Athletic for free? Sign u...
Behind 44 saves from Jeremy Swayman and the first multi-goal games of Alex Steeves’s career, the Bruins beat the Islanders, 3-1, on Long Island Wednesday night. The win gives the Bruins a season-series sweep over the Islanders. While Steeves deserves plaudits for his two goals (one of which was shorthanded), Swayman was the story in […]
For a pair of teams who share the same division and have represented the American League in the World Series a combined eight times over the last 40 years, the relationship between the Blue Jays and Red Sox has been remarkably tame. There’s no signature clash, no recent season where one stood in the doorway […]
From everybody at Over The Monster, we’d like to wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving! May it be a day filled with family, friends, and food, and at least a little bit of a debate around the table regarding where Sonny Gray slots into the Sox rotation next year. Use this thread to […]
