The question as one kicks off any Kyle Schwarber, Cubs-related post: can I get through this without relitigating the financially-motivated decision to non-tender Schwarber after the 2020 season? We all know the story by now, I think I can avoid some redundancy, save for the mention that, since the Cubs almost certainly would’ve traded Schwarber during the 2021 sell-off anyway, it’s probable that everything else would’ve played out as it did even if the Cubs had initially kept Schwarber.

The Packers’ head coach can downplay the fact that the guy who won four MVPs and a Super Bowl with the Packers is now on the opposing sideline, but it doesn’t detract from the significance of the matchup. Rodgers is […]

On Monday, NHL Central Scouting released their preliminary watch list for the 2026 NHL Draft.
They rate players as an A, B, C, W or LV, with an “A” grade meaning they’re labeling the player as a first-round prospect for the 2026 NHL Draft. A “B” is a second- or third-round grade, “C” is the fifth or sixth round, “W” is a sixth- or seventh-round grade and “LV” is for limited viewing (usually because of injury).
A couple of the NHL draft writers I cite frequently shared their thoughts ...
