Barcelona great Lionel Messi has made a surprise move and become the new owner of Spanish third division side Cornella. The club announced the news in a statement on their website (you can read the full text here): “UE Cornellà announces that Argentinian footballer and eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Leo Messi has formalized the acquisition […]
The Miami Dolphins want to build their team primarily through the draft. Getting extra draft picks will help. One opportunity may be on the horizon.
Good morning, baseball fans! As we approach Spring Training and the beginning of the season, we’re going to be doing some questions for y’all about your thoughts about the San Francisco Giants and baseball in general! Today’s question: Are the 2026 Giants actually trying to contend, or are they just pretending? I’ve made my opinion […]
Lose a couple in a row to teams below you … then come up with a big win over a team above you. No. 22 Maryland’s losses to No. 2 UCLA and No. 10 Iowa may have started their four-game losing streak, but the next two to No. 24 Washington and unranked Oregon hurt more […]
The time for hibernation is ending and soon it will be serious business in Arizona. Some players, notably Nico Hoerner, are already in camp. The fires have been banked, but we are told the flames are ready to be fanned and that we’ll see that post-season-ready buzz in short order. *means autoplay on, (directions to remove […]
In one of the most unexpected Super Bowl matchups in recent memory, the consensus expectations are fairly one-sided. The Seahawks have firmly established themselves as one of the NFL’s true elite teams. They have dismantled overmatched opponents and manuevered their way into making pivotal plays in high-leverage situations to beat the league’s best. Despite all […]
The draft is under three months away, and this entry is a clear, practical guide to evaluating running backs—using the same criteria coaches and scouts lean on. For this instalment, I pulled from people who grade the position every week and blended their language with a framework I’ve used while coaching at the high school […]
The passing of Detroit Tigers great and legend of ‘68, Mickey Lolich, brought this question to mind. Comerica Park already has a pretty cool group of statues beyond the left center field wall on the concourse. Ty Cobb, Charlie Gehringer, Hank Greenberg, Willie Horton, Al Kaline, and Hal Newhouser are already represented in stainless steel […]
Led by NFL Coach of the Year Mike Vrabel, the New England Patriots have a chance to put the finishing touches on what is already the greatest single-season turnaround in league history. One year after going 4-13 and firing their head coach, they are now on the brink of a championship. Obviously, winning Super Bowl […]
Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday, which marks the final game of the NFL’s 2025 season. Today’s game between the Seattle Seahawks and the New Englands Patriots is the 60th Super Bowl to be played, and it is also the 60th consecutive year that the Cleveland Browns have opted out of participating in the game. That […]
The Cleveland Browns have been searching for a legitimate left tackle since the day that Joe Thomas retired in 2018, and despite bursting onto the scene late, UGA’s Monroe Freeling shows the potential to be that player for Todd Monken and Company. Standing at 6’7” and around 315 pounds, he has excellent size, length, and […]
The New York Islanders have been one of the busiest teams on the trade market these last 10 months, and from the sounds of it, general manager Mathieu Darche isn't close to finished. The NHL's roster freeze is up Feb.22 and with the trade deadline set for Mar.6, look for Darche to continue making moves, after already acquiring Ondrej Palat from the New Jersey Devils, and Carson Soucy from the New York Rangers. It's not often a GM makes two trades with rival teams, but it was obvious Darche ide...
It’s that time in the season when Manchester City take the trip along the M62 for their annual defeat to Liverpool. The Blues are nine points behind Arsenal at the top of the table and need the points to keep their fading title hopes alive. Whilst not mathematically out of the title race, defending champions […]
Because the Chicago White Sox are in the middle of an epic rebuild, it is not fair to assess the job manager Will Venable is doing based solely on his record. You could argue that Will deserved votes for 2025 American League Manager of the Year after guiding the Pale Hose to a 19-win improvement. […]
Take a look at the final 2025 offensive line rankings in the NFL. Where did the Cleveland Browns rank? Try #32. That’s out of 32 teams. So, dead friggin’ last. This is an offensive line group that just a few years ago was ranked #3 in the league. Which is pretty sad. RELATED: C JAKE […]
This post is part of a series of daily questions that we’ll ask the community here at Amazin’ Avenue throughout the month of February. We hope you find the questions engaging and that our prompts can spark some fun conversations in the comments. We’ll see you there and plan to have staff chiming in, too. […]
With the Super Bowl coming up in just a few hours Ryan and I wanted to record a day early so that we could safely sit ourselves in front of our TVs with our fried foods and our favorite beverages without worrying about having to stop and record a podcast. So, we hopped onto our […]
The Cleveland Browns did pretty well with their 2025 rookie draft class. In fact, it might have saved GM Andrew Berry’s job as the head coach, Kevin Stefanaki, wasn’t so lucky after losing 26 games the past two seasons. Berry shocked everyone when he drafted not one, but two, quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL draft. […]
A daily roundup of Winnipeg Jets, Manitoba Moose coverage — all the pro hockey news that matters in Manitoba and beyond.
The Charlotte Checkers had to settle for a weekend split with the AHL-leading Grand Rapids Griffins, who beat them 5-2 last night at Bojangles Colsieum. Robert Mastrosimone, from Wilmer Skoog and Trevor Carrick, and Riese Gaber scored the goals for the Checkers. Kirill Greasimyuk took the loss, stopping 16 of 19 shots faced. Prospect Linus Eriksson scored the game-winning goal in Timrå IK’s 4-1 victory over Leksands IF in Satuday action from the Swedish Hockey League. Eriksson logged 18:...

Per a Spurs press release: The San Antonio Spurs announced that the organization will return to Paris, France this month to host “Spurs Week Paris,” a special weeklong activation across the city that brings key elements of their fan experience directly to their French supporters. From Thursday, Feb. 26 through Sunday, March 1, Spurs Week […]
Knowing full well that the Buffalo Bills are facing immediate pressure to not only make it to but win the franchise’s first Super Bowl under his watch as head coach, Joe Brady has gone about filling out his coaching staff by seeking to hire coaches who are fond of working together and incorporating strategies that […]
Happy Super Bowl Sunday one and all. Jess and I are back for our second of three episodes this week, and our final one will be our Super Bowl LX preview show. The Arizona Cardinals introduced Mike LaFleur this week, and then hired Nathaniel Hackett to be their offensive coordinator, even though nothing has been […]
In 24 hours, the baseball season will be upon us. The NFL season finale will be complete and we will be able to watch grown men carry large bags around sun soaked skies. Glorious. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
We’re back with another daily question, and today’s is football themed for Super Bowl Sunday. Credit to BCB user Brew Crew Buster, who commented the discussion idea last week. I don’t want to prejudice anybody’s “Brewer football team” here by giving any sort of insight into my hypothetical roster, so I’ll just leave this one […]
