The Blackhawks will celebrate their Dynasty Era as part of their Centennial celebration tonight before hosting the Bruins. There will be a collection of notable players there from the 2010s championship teams at the United Center for the ceremony. And, yes, there is a Duncan Keith bobblehead being distributed to the first 8,000 fans who attend.
Pretty sweet display setup in the Atrium for fans before tonight’s #Blackhawks game and Centennial celebration Team says you MIGHT still be able...
As the Chicago Bulls gear up for a second United Center Derrick Rose Night in as many years, this time to retire his jersey (a thing they could have easily done the first time around, had Michael Reinsdorf gotten his act together), they’ve been ramping up the hype machine.
It’s a good thing, too, because the on-court product has been woefully inconsistent. On Friday night, the Bulls blew a fourth-quarter comeback attempt against the lowly Brooklyn Nets , thanks in large part to a pair of ...
As the reactions to Ben Johnson’s now-infamous handshake with Matt LaFleur and “F— the Packers” postgame chat made its rounds this week, pundits made sure to let us know that it wasn’t just the Packers who were mad about Johnson’s perceived slight toward LaFleur and his team. It’s the whole crew of Los Angeles Rams […]
The Chicago Blackhawks host the Boston Bruins on Saturday night, looking to reset their homestand after dropping three straight games at the United Center.
The Bruins have put together a decently strong season so far, sitting in a wild card spot with a .583 points percentage (27-19-2), which is no small feat considering they’re slogging through what is arguably the toughest division in hockey — one where every team is north of .500. They’ve been especially hot of late, going 7–2–1 in thei...
The San Francisco 49ers are expected to have wide receiver Ricky Pearsall back for the first time since their Week 17 win over the Chicago Bears when they play the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Divisional Round on Saturday. It’s been an up-and-down second year for Pearsall, who has dealt with knee and ankle injuries […]
The 2026 Cubs Convention is providing WAY too many opportunities for content.
I’ve already got two blogs out this morning ( Jon Lester’s comments + the Cubs Hall of Fame announcement ), and I have AT LEAST three more to go after this one … and that’s excluding anything that comes out of the convention today!
My keyboard might start on fire from the friction. So, let’s just get right to it.
I posted the clips last night, but here are some more visuals from the 2016 Chicago Cubs...
Counting the playoffs, Michigan product Colston Loveland leads all Chicago Bears in targets and receiving yards this season, and according to Sumer Sports, he’s the highest-rated rookie tight end in yards per route run. He’s also one of the top five of all tight ends in Total EPA. He just became the first rookie in […]

With a berth in the NFC Championship Game as the prize, the Los Angeles Rams head east to the City of Big Shoulders, Chicago, Illinois, for a January 18 contest with the Chicago Bears. The Soldier Field kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. PST. Weather is expected to be mostly cloudy, with a chance of […]
Welcome back to the 2025-26 edition of Smash or Pass, in which we examine potential free agent and trade targets to determine whether the Red Sox should pursue them and what it would take to land them. Today we look at a Gold Glove infielder. Who is he and where does he come from? He’s Nico […]
1949 The White Sox purchased starter Bill Bevens from the Yankees. The righthander battled control issues throughout his career, but had managed to ascend from journeyman to star with a brilliant 1946 season in the Bronx: 16-13, 2.23 ERA/3.14 FIP, 154 ERA+ and 5.0 WAR over 249 2/3 innings. But after a poor 1947 season […]
Just the facts Know your enemy Game notes See ya tonight!
The NFC Wildcard game between the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers evolved into a true coaching clinic, a legendary chess match orchestrated by Bears offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. His layered play-calling and masterful conditioning of the Packers’ defense ultimately led to the game-winning touchdown. Johnson’s first move was a calculated test of the […]
It was a heck of a hot stove week, with two pairs of transactions seemingly moving in unison. The Cubs swiped Alex Bregman from the Red Sox, which prompted Boston to pivot to a five-year deal with Ranger Suarez. A couple nights later, the Dodgers did what they do and signed Kyle Tucker, which appeared […]
With the L.A. Rams coming to Soldier Field, for the NFC Divisional playoff on Sunday night, we re-up our exclusive with Eric Dickerson, the greatest Los Angeles Rams player ever. Dickerson discussed the last time these two teams met in the playoffs, the 1985 NFC championship game, with us in November of 2021. No matter […]
The post Exclusive: Eric Dickerson on Facing the ’85 Bears in NFC Title Game appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Last week, I opened my Bears-Packers How to watch article with this sentence. “Get ready for either one of the greatest Saturday nights of your Chicago Bears fandom or one of the worst.” It was one of the greatest. The stakes are even higher this Sunday in the Divisional round vs the Los Angeles Rams, […]
On Sunday, the Chicago Bears host the Los Angeles Rams with the winner advancing to the NFC Championship game. The Bears are coming off a dramatic come-from-behind win against the Packers, but the Rams also came from behind to beat the Panthers in their Wild Card game, thanks to a Matthew Stafford touchdown pass with […]
The Brooklyn Nets returned home to face the Chicago Bulls on Friday night after completing a miraculous 3-game road trip. Miraculously, the Nets lost all games to teams with a combined 39-70 record. Perhaps it’s a sign that this year’s attempt at tanking is blessed by the basketball gods, but that’s no consolation to Head […]
Chicago Cubs Executive Chairman Tom Ricketts announced at Friday night’s Cubs Convention Opening Ceremony that former Cubs catcher Jody Davis and pitcher Jon Lester will be inducted into the Cubs Hall of Fame this year. Also, former broadcaster Vince Lloyd will be inducted into the Chicago Cubs Hall of Fame and given a “Lifetime Achievement […]
Tonight marked the beginning of the 2026 Chicago Cubs Convention, which includes the always rowdy (and reportedly oversold, this year!) Opening Ceremonies. It also marks the tenth anniversary of the 2016 World Series, which means it’s reunion time!
As promised, the Cubs brought back as many (non-active) members of the 2016 World Series team, reintroducing them back to the city that loves them most.
The 2016 World Series Champions!
It’s good to have you home, boys.

The 19-21 Chicago Bulls head to New York on Friday night, where they’ll play the first game of a home-and-home clash with the 11-27 Brooklyn Nets.
On Wednesday, Chicago barely survived a Utah Jazz team that would clearly love to lose as much as possible down this season’s home stretch. A botched Keyonte George jumper was all that stood between the Bulls and overtime, against a Jazz club missing two of its best three players. Utah was sitting ex-Bull Lauri Markkanen with an illness (he als...
Brooklyn is back home after losing their last three on the road to Memphis, Dallas and New Orleans — extending their skid to five straight. Tankers unite.

We have to wait all weekend to finally watch the Chicago Bears play their divisional round playoff game. The Bears are scheduled to play the Los Angeles Rams in the final game of the weekend, with kickoff set for 5;30 p.m. CT. We know it’s going to be cold. Freezing even. Really, really cold. But […]
