The Arizona Cardinals are bad. They are actually bordering on awful at this point, and now they have to try and stop another valley running back product, this one who is going to be an All Pro in Bijan Robinson. This should be… interesting. Jess and I are both hopeful that we see a more […]

When Ha-Seong Kim joined the Braves in September, we weren’t really sure what we were getting. Kim had underwent surgery on his shoulder in 2024. He missed most of the first half of the season, only to hit the Injured List twice more with back and calf problems. All we knew was that we were […]
