Comments from the Other Side - Magic 11/23/25

 The Celtics are still an enigma.  They play well enough to build a 26 point lead and then they slack off and allow the Magic to come back and make it a game. Maybe losing Queta was a bigger deal than we thought.   Glad they held on for the win,  but it shouldn't have gotten that close.  It always amazes me when fans hate so many of their own players, even to wishing one injured.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?   Possible schedule l...

2025 Arizona Diamondbacks Player Reviews: #46 Jorge Barrosa

Overview Not going to lie, I am a bit surprised Barrosa ranks as highly as he does. But, I suppose being a key member of the revitalized team that made a late-season push for the playoffs will help inflate one’s stock somewhat. 2025 Review Jorge Barrosa made his MLB and Arizona debut back on 1 […]

Why Mike Maignan’s heroics present a new Milan dilemma

As Milan picked up a 1-0 win over Inter, Mike Maignan was the centre of attention. The Frenchman was pivotal in the tie, saving a penalty and also making two key saves to keep the Nerazzurri out. As the dust settles from the tie, there is a larger question to be asked about the Frenchman. […]

Shedeur Sanders was fine, and that’s good enough

Shedeur Sanders started his first NFL game on Sunday, and he was fine. Not terrible, not brilliant, but fine. Perhaps not the kind of scorching hot take that lands you a seat across from Stephen A. Smith, but a truthful, honest reality. The thing is: “Fine” is good enough for the Browns. One touchdown, one […]
