It’s getting to be that time for the pivotal third game of any four game series. The winner will be in the drivers seat for a series win while the loser will go into tomorrow’s game simply trying to salvage a split. I think we’re all hoping that Chris Sale and the Braves will be […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have fallen apart late during several postseason games. That is their own doing. However, those collapses have usually been accompanied by missed calls down the stretch. Blowing a 22-point lead in the fourth quarter against the New York Knicks in Game 1 was no exception. The NBA’s Last Two Minute Report shows […]
28 years ago tonight, in Amsterdam, Real Madrid won the European Cup for the seventh time and the first since 1966. Nobody outside the dressing room thought it was coming. Madrid had finished fourth in La Liga, 11 points behind Barcelona. Juventus were in their third Champions League final in a row. At Juventus, Marcello […]
When Jake LaRavia had it going for the Lakers, he looked like a genius signing for the franchise. He was knocking down so many threes against the Wolves to start the season that Anthony Edwards was asking who he was. Then the lights got brighter, and LaRavia began to dim. His shooting struggles from the […]

Wednesday notes… Cubs lineup: Brewers lineup: Edward Cabrera, RHP vs. Kyle Harrison, LHP Edward Cabrera was going along pretty well this year but his last two starts have been rough. His last start, in particular, was wrecked largely due to walks, which had been a concern in his time in Miami. Hopefully that won’t get […]

Roses are red, Cleveland too. Sadly for them, today it’s all about the Orange and Blue. Here’s a humongous Bulletin off a ridiculous Game 1 comeback victory. Mike Brown On Brunson’s MVP-level performance: “Obviously, we don’t get it done if Jalen Brunson doesn’t play like one of the MVP guys in the league. He was […]
Watching Sal Stewart struggle for the first time as a big leaguer was rough. After ripping through the month of April and taking home National League Rookie of the Month honors, May greeted him with a dose of what happens when big league pitchers and coaches finally get to scout you in detail via big […]
An errant pickoff throw by San Diego Padres closer Mason Miller allowed Los Angeles Dodgers pinch-runner Alex Call to move all the way to third base. He later scored on a sacrifice fly by Andy Pages, securing the Dodgers a hard-fought 5-4 victory over the Padres. After watching the replay, you sense Miller threw the […]
The big news, this afternoon, is that Jose Berrios had full Tommy John surgery, so he’ll be out for a year at very least. The good news keeps coming. The told us yesterday that they were going to ‘remove loose bodies’ in his elbow and see what else needs fixing. I’m sure when Berrios woke […]
Someone requested this a little while ago, and I thought it was a good idea. At the end of May, we’ll start our player countdown to kickoff. It’ll be more in-depth this year to help everyone get a better grasp on the roster heading into the fall. As we work our way from 99 to […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers squandered a 22-point fourth-quarter lead in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the New York Knicks. Numerous things have to go wrong to give up an advantage that large. The defensive end was no exception. Jalen Brunson led the way with 15 points in the fourth quarter to help claw […]
The San Francisco 49ers got their schedule release last week, and it is littered with high-profile games from start to finish. San Francisco has two international trips, their regular division schedule, and a number of playoff contenders on the schedule. That should make for a ton of entertaining matchups, similarly to what we saw last […]
Barcelona midfielder Frankie de Jong says his team are going to really miss Robert Lewandowski after he leaves at the end of the season.

Good morning, everyone. With the first round just about completed (there is one game to be played as of this writing), it is time to make an update to our Stanley Cup Playoffs Open Post. You can see the original post here, but let’s dive into the new matchups. The Schedule: You can see the NHL’s schedule […]
Editor’s note: The Commanders remain flush with salary-cap space entering the meat of this offseason program. That doesn’t mean general manager Adam Peters has to spend, but he’s got options should he feel the need to fortify his already revamped roster. We’ll do some spending for him, suggesting some street free agents who could help Washington in this weeklong series. We’ve contemplated adding receiver Stefon Diggs and cornerback Rasul Douglas. In […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are among the teams looking to upgrade their goaltending situation this summer. While career backup Dan Vladar provided more than they could have hoped for in a starting role this season, Samuel Ersson left plenty to be desired as his understudy. Philly is looking for a new tandem partner for Vladar. While the Flyers are open to locking up Vladar if the price is right (he has one year remaining on his deal and is eligible for an extension July 1), they are fully a...

The Pittsburgh Steelers have already shaken things up in the Mike McCarthy era. With OTAs beginning this past Monday, the alignment of the offensive line looks very different than it did in 2025. Tory Fautanu and Mason McCormick were moved to the left side, with Fautanu playing left tackle and McCormick at guard. Dylan Cook […]
The Orioles were four outs away from staving off a sweep at the hands of the Rays and maybe fending off the feelings of impending doom around this team for a couple more days. They had a two-run lead, the tying run was only at the plate for the Rays, and then it all fell […]
The Phillies and Reds played the rubber game of their series on Wednesday afternoon. The offense wasn’t great, but the main problem was that Aaron Nola and the bullpen simply couldn’t keep the Reds from scoring. The result was a 9-4 loss and the team’s first series loss under manager Don Mattingly. The Phillies scored […]

Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals made it abundantly clear that we are clearly in the Victor Wembanyama era in the NBA. Few players have been as impressive at such a young age as he has been. To qualify it as just impressive, though, is underselling what he’s doing. Dominating a playoff game against […]
