We’ve got new news! Former Seattle Seahawks defensive lineman Johnathan Hankins joined 710’s Brock & Salk on Thursday morning for a casual interview. Hankins – a great interview himself – also provided two significant updates about the Seahawks’ defensive line status for 2026. They’re both retirement updates of note. On the one, Hankins himself is […]
I started to watch Wednesday’s game and thought about quitting for a minute. Only then did I realize we had Jordan Clarkson sitting on the bench, so it was just a matter of time for the Knicks to flip the script. Here’s the latest from your superheroes in a JC-heavy chapter of the bulletin. Mike […]
The Bucks are slogging through the final quarter of somewhat meaningless basketball. A trip to the play-in seems less and less likely with each passing game, and Bucks fans have their eye trained on the latest shifts in lottery order rather than actual playoff standings. With March Madness merely five days away, there are several […]
The first week of free agency is not even finished, but the Seattle Seahawks have either seen the majority of their free agents agree to a contract that settles where those players will be in 2026. That includes the majority of the Seahawks restricted free agents, including long snapper Chris Stoll, who reached agreement Wednesday […]
After handily defeating the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX, the Seattle Seahawks entered the offseason with an unusually large number of restricted free agents. The most noteworthy of the RFAs was, without question, starting linebacker Drake Thomas, but the team also faced decisions on several key members of the special teams, including […]
The USA Basketball women’s national team defeated Senegal, 110-46 on Wednesday in San Juan, Puerto Rico for the FIBA Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament. With the exception of a quick one-point lead by the Senegalese, the Americans dominated and were leading by as many as 66 points as the margin of victory got larger. Team […]
“I fell in love with the game because it was just outside, playing with my friends.” It makes sense when you think about it. Jason Kidd used to play soccer. Before he started basketball and then became a prolific NBA playmaker and point guard, he was a striker on the football pitch, with a nose […]
Erling Haaland’s Rafael Pimienta has spoken out about the Manchester City striker’s future after Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font claimed he was trying to secure a buy option on the Norway star. As expected, Pimienta has given the talk short shrift, insisting Haaland is perfectly happy where he is and that there’s been no contact […]
When the Lakers traded for Luke Kennard at the deadline, the majority of the team’s fanbase let out a collective shrug. No one debated that the 29-year-old journeyman would help address a clear need as arguably the most efficient 3-point shooter in the NBA since entering the league. But the tepid reaction stemmed not from […]
Before the start of the 2024-25 NHL season, Bill Guerin declared his belief that Matt Boldy could be a 50-goal/50-assist player. The breakout didn't arrive last year, despite the Minnesota Wild forward scoring a career-high 73 points. Still, the big, faster-than-you-think, skilled winger has always...
We had heard in the days leading up to the trade deadline that pending unrestricted free agent Corey Perry wanted to stay in L.A. He did not want to be a trade deadline casualty and was willing and hoping to sign an extension for next season. The Kings seemed to be on board with that. But then, seemingly out of the blue, Perry was traded at the 11th hour, just before the deadline hit last Friday, to the Tampa Bay Lightning . So what happened? According to insider David Pagnot...
While most of the sports media attention in March is focused on basketball, the month is a big one for soccer as well. International soccer leagues are right in the thick of their seasons right now, and the MLS has recently just started to kick off. As we count down the days before the 2026 […]
The first few days of free agency have been fairly quiet for the Minnesota Vikings, so you wouldn’t think there would be a whole lot in the way of “winners” and “losers.” However, we do have enough data to determine a couple in each category, so let’s go ahead and take a quick look at […]
If you’re looking on the bright side, we’re at least writing this about three months later this season than we were last season. For about 35-45 games, the Sixers gave their fans enough of a reason to tune in. But the last five to six weeks of the 2025-2026 season have been far from fruitful. […]
It’s what the people wanted! The Brooklyn Nets took on the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night and got the hell beat out of them as they lost by 38 points. The opponent tonight is flying high. The Atlanta Hawks pushed their winning streak to seven after beating the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night. They’re solidly […]
For various reasons, mostly to do with Duane’s continued poor health and the dismal state of the healthcare industry, he needs to step away from the virtual office and daily duties. And so, we are looking for a front page writer to take over Cub Tracks and Chicago Cubs/Baseball history unpacked. We are hoping that […]
Tuesday night was fascinating for me as a sports fan. I started my night by watching my college’s depressingly bad basketball team lose to Northwestern to end its season in the Big Ten tournament, then switched the channel to watch Team USA lose in embarrassing fashion to Italy in the World Baseball Classic. At the […]
Now that the first few days of free agency chaos have ended, it allows us to look at the new NFL landscape. In doing so, certain winners and losers appear, in the macro sense with the NFL as a whole, all the way down to a micro sense looking at individual divisions and teams. Here, […]
The Sixers are coming off a feel-good victory, defeating the tanking Memphis Grizzlies 139-129 in a game where they were without Tyrese Maxey, Paul George and Joel Embiid. Now they’ll look to keep their playoff hopes alive in a much tougher game, traveling to Detroit to face the first-seeded Pistons. As many know, the Pistons […]
The Minnesota Vikings have had a quite start to Free Agency. The marguee names have mostly been signed, while the Vikings have avoided the large contracts they demand. A modest CB signing and a few players returning are all we have to discuss so far. The attention is shifting towards Kyler Murray’s visit and likely […]
It’s time for harsh truths. Cold, unrelenting reality. Words must no longer be minced. The Houston Rockets’ situation has materially worsened in 2025-26. Place the blame where you will. Ime Udoka’s offense lacks sophistication. Rafael Stone picked Jalen Green with the most consequential draft pick of the rebuild. Kevin Durant has a burner. Each of […]
After playing nine of their last 10 games at home, the Bucks are back on the road tonight taking on the Miami Heat at Kaseya Center. Losers by 15 to the Suns, Milwaukee will need every bit of juice it has against a Miami team that has won six on the trot, including a 150-129 […]
Super lightweight veterans Arnold Barboza Jr and Kenneth Sims Jr receive the DAZN spotlight this Saturday evening, duking it out in a must-win main event in Anaheim, California. Bad Left Hook will have LIVE coverage of the card starting at 8:00 pm ET. Sims (22-3-1, 8 KO) saw a nine-fight winning streak go up in […]
In Today’s Links: an update on the free agent status of several lingering Seattle Seahawks, talk on the timeline the ‘Hawks have chosen to follow this offseason, prospects, replacing Kenneth Walker III, a look at our squad’s roster as is, and more. Once again, forever and always, thanks for being here. Go, ‘Hawks! #np Nothing […]
It was all going a little too well, wasn’t it? The sun was shining at Camelback Ranch, the beer was cold enough to forget the 2025 win-loss column, and Munetaka Murakami launched a grand slam in the World Baseball Classic. We were allowed to have nice things for exactly three weeks. Then came the medical […]
