JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Many MAAC schools have a certain campus culture to them. Something that draws alumni back and entices students to enroll. At Saint Peter’s, many of the students enroll out of convenience and commute from home to the Journal Square-adjacent strip of buildings known as the campus. It’s why it’s so hard […]
Dear Steven Adams, When you became a Houston Rocket in 2024, I was ecstatic.

On that February afternoon two years ago […]
Greetings, Coug fans, and welcome to the 90th day of January. It’s the dog days of winter, with nothing but a middling men’s basketball team and a worrisome women’s basketball team chugging along. So, naturally, let’s talk football. The 2026 football schedule, to be precise. The Pac-12 governing board met this week and was expected […]
Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone was in a combative mood as he spoke to the media before this weekend’s fixture against Levante, which will end a difficult week amid a defeat to Bødo/Glimt in the Champions League and amid no new arrivals from the January transfer window.

This weekend will hurt, the next weekend will hurt more. If you are a Los Angeles Rams fan then it’s going to be pain. No way around it.

#1 – PP hunting seals What if I tell you that Payton Pritchard is the most efficient isolation player in the NBA among players with more than two isolations per game?

BOSTON — Celtics guard Payton Pritchard has spent years mastering the art of running an offense. The understanding of the role’s true importance didn’t come all at once for him, and it didn’t all come exclusively from basketball. At West Linn High School in Oregon, Pritchard was a multi-sport athlete. He was the starting point […]
BOSTON — Jayson Tatum’s remarks on The Pivot Podcast and the Chris Haynes report that Tatum’s re-evaluating whether he’ll return from Achilles surgery this season did not stem from a physical setback, Joe Mazzulla said on 98.5 The Sports Hub earlier this week.

I write three or four posts a week for this site, so I will beg an indulgence in this one. Writing in the offseason is challenging, especially when the Yankees adopt the “run it back” strategy they seem to have this year. There are endless rumors, smoke with little to no fire, and occasionally debates […]

The San Jose Sharks have been rebuilding for a number of years now and they have built enough to be in the running for the playoffs this season. This isn't without struggles and the team definitely needs more to be able to compete, but it's a good start. For a couple of these latest rebuilding years, Mario Ferraro was a defenseman that has received plenty of interest, but now is in the final year of his deal set to become a UFA and the Sharks could use him. David Pagnotta said, "Mario Ferraro'...
Speaking on Cadena SER, Manuel Jabois delivered a sharp warning about Real Madrid’s current state and the potential reaction at the Bernabeu if results continue to falter. “One of the stupid advantages of being knocked out of the Copa del Rey is lightening the calendar and they ruined that themselves through carelessness, through neglect,” Jabois […]
