Giardi: The best 25 Patriots over the last 25 years - The final reveal
It is finally here. The moment you’ve all been waiting for. The big reveal, so to speak (I kid. I kid). The final name of the 25 best Patriots of the last 25 years was the biggest no-brainer in the history of Earth. Even I couldn’t screw that up.
Celtics Summer League Notebook: Hugo Gonzalez's best yet, a race for the two-ways, and more

BSJ Live Q&A: Haggerty on the summer break, B's front office changes -- 11 a.m. Thursday 07.16.26
Haggs is here to answer all the burning questions about a Bruins NHL roster that seems like it is still ripe for tinkering and a front office makeover that includes the former GM of the Buffalo Sabres joining the B's front office in an advisory role to Don Sweeney. It's an interesting change for a B's group coming off a strong year where they bounced back from the disappointment of two years ago, but remain at a key crossroads to keep building toward a bright future in a stacked Atlantic Divis...

Bedard: Drake Maye was 8th in ESPN's QB poll - fair or foul?

NHL Notes: Too many Defensemen for the Bruins?
The Boston Bruins would seem to have a logjam on the back end where they legitimately have 10 defensemen that could expect to be on the NHL roster when training camp breaks in the fall. Obviously, Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm, Nikita Zadorov and the newly acquired Will Borgen are the mainstays and automatics, but after that it becomes a picture that could change quickly based on performance and circumstances.
