Latest blog entries from Washington teams across every league
The Utah Jazz are looking to trade up to the No. 1 draft position up from No. 2 in the 2026 NBA Draft. And former Brigham Young star AJ Dybantsa is also open to staying in Utah, according to Sam Quinn of CBS Sports. Here is the “money quote.” CBS Sports’ Adam Finkelstein reported this week […]
The Philadelphia Eagles will begin their 2026 schedule at Lincoln Financial Field with a Week 1 home game against the Washington Commanders, according to a report from @OzzyNFL. Kickoff is said to be set for 4:25 PM Eastern. This marks just the second time since the Nick Sirianni era began in 2021 that the Birds […]
Well then. The Cincinnati Reds have fumbled the first two games of this series away, the Washington Nationals being perfectly positioned to recover them. So, once again, the Reds will turn to young Chase Burns needing him to perform a miracle just to rescue them from worst-case scenario. After Wednesday’s blown 5-run lead and debacle […]
Last night, the Washington Nationals showed just how exciting they can be. They erased a 5-0 first inning deficit, and came back to win 8-7 in extra innings. It was a crazy and emotional game where the boys rose to the occasion. They also wore their hearts on their sleeves, which I love to see, […]
Assuming the Washington Wizards decide to take BYU star AJ Dybantsa with the number-one pick -- because honestly, who wouldn't -- this potential NBA superstar could have his development severely stunted thanks to one man. Trae Young. Trae Young's value bo
For the third time in four years, the Indianapolis Colts will travel a long way from Lucas Oil Stadium as they are slated to face off against the Washington Commanders in London for their Week 4 matchup on October 4th. It took them ten weeks before traveling to Berlin, Germany last year, so this contest […]
The Washington Wizards will select first in the 2026 NBA Draft but not before proving the NBA wrong.
The Commanders have made great efforts to upgrade the defensive front seven this offseason in free agency and the draft. Compared to the massive investment directed toward those position groups, relatively little was done to address the roster deficiencies in the secondary, and the cornerback room, in particular. Prior to free agency, I published an […]
Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson destroyed a ball for a grand slam in the Bottom of the 1st inning tonight in Great American Ball Park, the blast giving the Reds an early 5-0 lead. This, of course, came just a day after they were run ragged by a rebuilding Washington Nationals club 10-4 in the […]
Cincinnati Reds lefty Nick Lodolo is back on the mound for his second start of the 2026 season after blisters cost him the entirety of the month of April. He’ll face the Washington Nationals, who pummelled Reds pitching for six homers in the series opener on Tuesday in Great American Ball Park. The Reds will […]
The Nats won the first game of the series emphatically in Cincinnati. They hit a whopping six home runs in the 10-4 blow out win. Now, they will look to follow that up with another strong performance to claim a series win. Hopefully they do not drop the ball like they did in Miami. With […]
We’ll learn when the Commanders will play their 2026 season slate when the NFL schedule is formally released on Thursday evening. We’ve known which teams the Commanders will play for months. That part was solidified shortly after the season, locking that down based on Washington’s place in the standings. That also sets up what’s known as strength of schedule, the […]
The Nationals have been a surprisingly fun team to watch so far in 2026. As we have documented, the offense has been absolutely electric and the pitching staff has stabilized after a rough start to the season. However, the defense has been very rough, and it is showing no signs of improvement. Even in last […]

The Washington Commanders are well into their offseason workout program, and with the NFL draft ending a couple of weeks ago, the new roster is mostly set. Washington general manager Adam Peters’ offseason goals consisted of getting “young, really fast, exciting, and explosive” players. But did Washington do enough on defense to compete week in […]
Visitors to Great American Ball Park on Tuesday night were greeted with a barrage of baseballs in the stands. Unfortunately, none of them were socked by the Cincinnati Reds. Instead, the Reds themselves offered up six homers to the visiting Washington Nationals in a 10-4 drubbing that once again served as a reminder to just […]
Sonny Styles turned heads at Washington’s rookie minicamp. From his overall frame to his athletic ability during the practice session, Styles checked the first-impressions box on the physical presence front. The Commanders selected Styles with their seventh overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL draft, and the ceiling of the second-year linebacker […]
Khris Middleton was shipped to the Dallas Mavericks at the trade deadline in the deal that sent Anthony Davis to the Washington Wizards. Middleton’s inclusion was all about salary. His contract made the money work both ways, and more importantly for the Mavericks, expires this summer. That gives them the financial relief they need as […]
When the Washington Commanders‘ record-shattering stadium deal that could end up costing D.C. $6.6 billion or more in cash, land, and tax breaks was approved last summer, one of the many unanswered questions was how to get 65,000 people in and out of the former RFK Stadium site on game days. The district’s Metro transit agency […]
Seventeen years ago today, the Penguins blew past the Washington Capitals in a series-deciding game on the road, sending Pittsburgh to the Eastern Conference Final for a second straight season. It was 2009. The Penguins and the Capitals were putting on a show for the hockey world with six games of what felt like uncontrolled […]
The leaks started yesterday for the 2026-27 NFL schedule relewse and have continued today. News about the Washington Commanders schedule hasn’t been flowing, except for rumors about the date of their game in London (Oct. 4), and their potential opponent (Colts). We’ve got some official leaks from division opponents that could preview a possible Week […]
After a couple tough losses in Miami, the Nats responded in a big way tonight. They overpowered the Reds in a 10-2 win where they homered 6 times. Luis Garcia Jr. and Daylen Lile both had multi-homer games in the blow out. The bullpen also did great work tonight, eating 5.2 innings in this one. […]
Tonight’s a great night for the Cincinnati Reds to shell Miles Mikolas for about 9 runs on 5 dingers. Well, any night is a great night to see that happen to the Washington Nationals starter, but tonight’s the Reds chance. Brady Singer starts. First pitch is set for 6:40 PM ET. Here’s how these two […]
Expunge just about everything from the baseball that was played last week, and the Cincinnati Reds might end up just fine. They are, after all, still 22-19 on the season, 3 games over the .500 mark though 41 games and still very much in a half-decent position despite finding themselves buried in the run differential […]
After taking game one of the weekend series in Miami and getting back to within 1 game of .500, the Nationals dropped the final two games to lose the series to the Marlins, who stormed ahead in the 8th inning of both Saturday and Sunday’s games. They didn’t play badly in either of the losses, […]
