With the first week of the Stanley Cup Playoffs nearing its end, a side discussion over at SCH HQ between LBR and myself seemed like it’d be good to bring to the people here, as it has some relevancy to the team watching from home (or some beachfront property) that’s being assembled over at 1901 W. Madison.
A couple of teams with rather young forward groups have grabbed early headlines, led by the Philadelphia Flyers, up 3-0 on their interstate rivals from Pittsburgh. An also young Montre...
The Eagles liked USC wide receiver Makai Lemon enough to make a trade with the Cowboys to get their guy at No. 20. After the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, general manager Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni spoke with reporters about what they liked about Lemon, how he’ll add to the […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers made one of the more polarizing and, frankly, underwhelming picks of Night One of the NFL Draft when they took Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor after the Philadelphia Eagles swooped in and stole USC wide receiver Makai Lemon. With four picks on Day Two, the Steelers still have a ton of […]
There weren’t many bright spots for the Phillies week or Tanner Banks. He carries a 5.59 ERA and is probably too on the current depth chart because of their injuries (more on this later). But he put together a fun three pitch sequence to Seiya Suzuki for a called third strike. He pinpointed an up […]
One day down, two to go! The Eagles were able to trade up three spots with the Dallas Cowboys in order to secure WR Makai Lemon out of USC. There was a run on offensive tackles early in the first round, so Howie Roseman and his staff decided to go a little splashier with their […]
The Eagles traded up to No. 20 in the 2026 NFL Draft on Thursday night to take wide receiver Makai Lemon, but it turns out that Howie Roseman wasn’t the first call to the receiver from a Pennsylvania phone number. Reports after the draft revealed that the Steelers were so excited to get Lemon, they […]
It’s hard to pinpoint the biggest problem with the Phillies right now. They haven’t done anything right in any facet of the game for any consistent stretch of time so far this season and they’ve lost nine games in a row. In fact, they’re tied with the Kansas City Royals for the worst record in […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are one win away from sweeping the Pittsburgh Penguins and advancing to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time since 2020.
The only thing standing between them and that moment is a question about their most important player.
Goaltender Dan Vladar did not practice Thursday after suffering an apparent right arm injury late in the third period of Wednesday's 5-2 Game 3 victory, when Penguins forward Bryan Rust crashed into him in the crease and...
For most of the 2025-26 season, Owen Tippett was the Philadelphia Flyers player most frequently attached to trade speculation.
The Boston Bruins had checked in on him multiple times.
The Vancouver Canucks were mentioned.
The asking price was steep, centered around top prospects and a first-round pick, and the conversation around whether the Flyers should move him before his modified no-trade clause kicked in this summer was a genuine one inside hockey circles.
Three games into the play...
One week ago, I opened up the links by noting that the results of the Braves series would have a major impact on the mood of the fanbase. The same can be said today. Let us hope that this series will turn out better than the last. Onto the links. Phillies news Taijuan Walker’s time […]

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II exited Thursday’s game in the seventh inning after experiencing left quad tightness. Fortunately, the move was only precautionary and Harris is expected to be on the lineup card tonight against the Philadelphia Phillies. Harris had a huge series against the Washington Nationals, where he logged six hits, two of […]
The reactions to the Philadelphia Eagles drafting Makai Lemon after trading up to No. 20 came quick, with many saying that Howie Roseman was able to give the team some insurance should they end up trading A.J. Brown later in the offseason. Analysts around the league are generally positive about the Eagles picking Lemon, with […]
Having traded down after a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys took Malachi Lawrence with the 23rd pick in the 2026 NFL draft.
Well, with all the speculation swirling about A.J. Brown’s future in Philadelphia, the team made things pretty clear for fans on Thursday night, trading up in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft to select WR Makai Lemon out of USC. If Brown was still in the plan for this upcoming season, it’s hard […]
With the No. 20 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select … Makai Lemon, WR, USC! The Birds traded with the dastardly Dallas Cowboys (gasp!) to move up to this selection.

Stats & Accolades What the Eagles are getting: Lemon looks to be the next undersized star at wide receiver in the NFL with a play temperament and play-making ability […]
After making a trade to secure one of the top defensive prospects in the draft, Caleb Downs, the Dallas Cowboys have made another move on the first day of the draft. The Cowboys sacrificed some draft capital to move up one pick to get Downs, making a trade down at 20 much more likely. Ultimately, Dallas made […]
The Eagles first round pick has been mocked many different ways in the days leading up to the NFL Draft, but many expected Howie Roseman to try and trade up for an offensive lineman — specifically for Alabama OT Kadyn Proctor. Proctor was someone the team considered a next man up for both Lane Johnson […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is nearly about to begin! And here’s a juicy tidbit for you: the Philadelphia Eagles are said to be “among teams that have had pre-draft discussions with teams about possible move-ups into late [first round].” This much according to a report from NFL insider Jeremy Fowler, who also notes that the […]
We’re unlikely to see the San Francisco 49ers on the clock until a little after 8:30 p.m. PT. There are plenty of rumors swirling. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler tweeted that the Eagles, Titans, and Browns are teams that have had discussions about moving up into the late first round. How much of Robert Saleh’s relationship with […]
The Pittsburgh Penguins have lost again, and now the Philadelphia Flyers have a 3-0 series lead in the Battle of Pennsylvania. It is going to be a tough hill for the Penguins to climb if they have any hopes of playing in the second round of the NHL playoffs. In Game 3 Wednesday night, it…
