It’s another week of the Mountain West Recruiting Roundup. First of all, it’s clear that it’s decommitment season. There were six players who reopened their recruiting this past week, no longer pledged to Mountain West teams.

Necessity is quickly becoming the mother of invention for Hansi Flick.

Perhaps through all the drama, […]

From penalties to poor play, the 2025 Chicago Bears have found ways to win despite certain players or entire units playing well below expectations. Sunday against the New York Giants was no different, but in the end, Caleb Williams and Co. clawed back and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, and the Bears improve […]
Major League Baseball’s annual GM Meetings kick off today and run through Thursday in Las Vegas. Note that this is not the same thing as the winter meetings, which don’t happen until December. There tends to be a lot less player movement at the November GM meetings (because we’re still so early in the offseason, […]
Mike and Dan recap a week of great, bad and ugly as the Islanders follow-up a no-show performance at home with a hilarious win on the road. The week started with an eventful, entertaining game against the Bruins that didn’t go the Islanders’ way, and also included some social media drama. All of that was […]
In the wake of a defeat in which the Los Angeles Rams did basically whatever they wanted when they had the ball, the search for reasons to be cheerful for the 49ers might seem as futile as San Francisco’s comeback efforts ultimately proved to be. But the cause for optimism as the 49ers, now 6-4, […]

Happy Victory Monday, Bears fans! Let’s go play in the snow (after reading BN Bears Bullets, of course!) It wasn’t pretty, but the Chicago Bears did what they needed to do on Sunday against the New York Giants. They keep winning games they feel destined to lose. It is a 180-degree turnaround from what I am used to as a fan. I’ve never been more thankful that style points don’t matter in the NFL. This team still has work to do in all phases. But so long as it keeps on pulling out dubs at...
NC State gets back to it this week with the chance to do something truly hilarious, which is to say, kill the Miami Hurricanes’ playoff hopes.

Cincinnati Reds lefty Andrew Abbott averaged 92.8 mph with his fastball during his All Star campaign in 2025, a mark that ranked him in just the 26th percentile according to MLB’s Statcast. He also generated grounders just 32.9% of the time, a mark that ranked in just the 9th percentile. I point out his weaknesses […]
It was expected, but now we know it’s officially happening: 27-year-old Japanese ace Tatsuya Imai will be posted by the Seibu Lions this offseason for MLB teams to make offers. He will be one of the most highly sought-after starting pitchers on the market, and the Cubs have been speculatively listed among the possible suitors.
