Fellow offensive linemen Vederian Lowe and Garrett Bradbury remained sidelined due to illnesses, as well, while defensive tackle Khyiris Tonga’s absence continued […]
How do you assess how a team is performing during the middle of the season? While there’s no perfect way to review short-term results and extrapolate their meaning in the long term, Lakers head coach JJ Redick has been happy with how his team has been playing over the past six games, even if the […]
Thursday is the date for players and teams to exchange salaries for those eligible for arbitration, which serves as a soft deadline of sorts for deals to be struck. All four Dodgers eligible avoided an arbitration hearing by agreeing to one-year deals. Right-hander Brusdar Graterol was ahead of the curve, agreeing to terms on Wednesday […]

The Seattle Seahawks may have a bye, but that doesn’t mean they’re free from all football activities until the week of the NFC Divisional Round.

Gabe Vincent’s injury history with the Lakers is longer than anyone would like. He missed the majority of the 2023-24 season recovering from knee surgery. This season, he’s already missed 19 games due to injury, most recently missing nine contests to a lumbar back strain. On Tuesday, Vincent returned to action as the Lakers lost […]
Time is a construct we humans made to contextualize life. As arbitrary as time is, it does help place events in a specific place. It gives us fresh starts and resets days and years. With our calendars now set for 2026, the Lakers can start fresh, too. Well, sort of. It’s not a new season, […]
If there is one certainty in the NFL offseason, it’s that the Los Angeles Rams will have coaches poached from Sean McVay’s coaching staff. It’s a testament to McVay’s success and ability to develop coaches, but it’s also something that the Rams have had to manage every offseason. The Rams will once again have several […]
The New England Patriots did not stand a chance the last time they faced off against the Los Angeles Chargers, getting blown out 40-7 in front of their home crowd in December 2024. While a lot has changed in the 12-plus months since, one thing has not: Derwin James remains a problem. The 29-year-old safety […]
Coming off a tough loss versus the Memphis Grizzlies, the Spurs returned home for a SEGABABA versus the Los Angeles Lakers. It was announced hours before tipoff that LeBron James would not play due to sciatica. Devin Vassell also remained out due to his adductor injury. Nonetheless, Victor Wembanyama was active. In what was one […]
It is clear that the Edmonton Oilers are planning on moving on from Andrew Mangiapane this season, and the veteran with a no-trade clause, would be willing to waive it to get a better opportunity somewhere else. David Pagnotta had reported, "Andrew Mangiapane would prefer to move to a contender, but he is open to the 'best fit' for him. The Ducks, Red Wings, and Jets are just three of the teams the Oilers are believed to have spoken to." The Anaheim Ducks have plenty of cap space and are in a ...
Somehow we’re here. Despite a season of ups and downs and more losses than wins, the Carolina Panthers find themselves hosting a playoff game. It just so happens that it’s against the Los Angeles Rams, the team the Panthers defeated at Bank of America Stadium about a month ago in what was arguably the most […]
QBs: The Rams have Matthew Stafford, the frontrunner for MVP. He led the NFL in passing yards (4707) and passing touchdowns (46). He had two games in 2025 that made him look human… Week 13 at Carolina and Week 17 @ Atlanta. The Panthers will rely on Bryce Young in his first taste of playoff […]
The Carolina Hurricanes (26-14-3) return to action tonight as they take on the Anaheim Ducks (21-19-3) at the Lenovo Center. Game time is 7 P.M. After a sterling performance against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday, the Canes will look to repeat those results against the Ducks. They have won two in a row and they […]
The Los Angeles Rams’ special teams unit has been bad all season. It could be short-handed and maybe even worse for the playoffs, possibly being one of the primary reasons the Rams fall short of a Super Bowl run this season. We watched LA lose to the Philadelphia Eagles because of a blocked kick that […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are so back. After demolishing the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night in the most entertaining game of the season so far, the feeling surrounding this team feels impenetrable. The dark cloud looming over this current rebuild that the front office is pursuing, has once again been waved away to briefly see some immaculate sunshine.
Cutter Gauthier was traded away to the Ducks because he didn’t want to play for the Flyers after they drafted him fifth overall. It’s a story...

It’s natural for people to want to outdo themselves when they’ve disappointed observers and evaluators at work. NBA teams are the same and usually come out guns blazing when they have been humbled. The San Antonio Spurs got their turn to right that wrong on Wednesday. Similar records don’t always mean rivals are in the […]
The Carolina Panthers are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2017, and are division champions for the first time in ten years. That means we get bonus football! Unfortunately, it comes against a Rams team, and more specifically their offense, that will likely be looking for blood in this rematch from the […]
The New England Patriots played a comparatively easy schedule in the regular season, there is no denying that. That being said, they are still a battle-tested team that cut its teeth against a handful of high-quality opponents or at least units. The playoffs, however, are a different animal: every team is good, and the Los […]
The Spurs pulled off a stellar win last night against the Los Angeles Lakers. With both teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back, energy was a factor and tensions were high. There was a lot of Purple and Gold in the sea of Silver & Black, and the sell out crowd was loud. […]
*Leafs tonight, friends. The Leafs who have not performed as expected up til this point in the season. Before tonight’s game, have a look at Charlie’s thoughts on that last game. Which was very fun. [ PHLY ]
*About that last game… evidently the league saw no issue with the blatantly dirty hits thrown by Ducks players Tuesday night. Cool. [ BSH ]
*Related, if Jamie Drysdale and Bobby Brink have to miss any time, these are the six players we think would be best to replace them. [ BSH ]...
