With the 2026 NFL Draft winding down, teams began turning their attention to rookie free agency. The New England Patriots were no exception, and they will once again be quite busy: the team of head coach Mike Vrabel and quasi-general manager Eliot Wolf has several open spots on its 90-man roster available to be filled. […]
Continuing the experiment where I’m drawing conversations from the Moose Tracks out to give them more space, Husky Mariner asked the other day if there’s room for both Ben Williamson and Colt Emerson on the 2026 Mariners roster. (We’re going to assume Opening Day, optimized roster, in this situation, not the Frankenlineups that sometimes get […]
Thursday night in Dallas looked like one in which the Minnesota Timberwolves were going to play all the hits. Near double-digit favorites on the road against a severely shorthanded Dallas Mavericks team, anyone who’s followed this team close enough over the last two seasons probably could have predicted how things were going to go. With […]
The Phillies can annoy us. There are things that they do that can get on our nerves, whether it be a questionable decision by the manager during a game (I’m still not over The Bunt), a trade that was made that returned virtually nothing (that’s all they got for Schilling?) or a season that ended […]
In Today’s Links: the unique community that is Seattle Seahawks fans, photos as the 12s send off the ‘Hawks headed for their flight to Santa Clara, how our squad got here, more on the possibility that Klint Kubiak is leaving for Las Vegas, untold tales from the “BeastQuake”, a bit from the Senior Bowl via […]
Welcome to Tar Heel Blog’s Question of the Day, a new daily conversation starter. Our first question today could actually be “where do we even start?” How do we pick just one question, among the many springing out of UNC athletics? We could debate the debate itself. Belichick and Lombardi’s 2025 season exposes a fault […]
As we ramp up our annual draft preparations, two terms will continually make the rounds: ‘blue chip prospects’ and ‘first-round grades’. Blue chip prospects are truly elite talents that are projected to have an immediate impact at the NFL level and are likely to become some of the best players at their position. Depending on […]
The San Francisco 49ers obviously have needs in the 2026 season, but none more so than both offensive and defensive lines. We’ve wondered if this would be the year they take an offensive tackle in the first round, and this latest mock draft from NFL.com’s Eric Edholm addresses the inevitable moment in the (hopefully distant) […]
Just about every member of the 2025 Orioles either underperformed or got injured. Colton Cowser did both, souring what could have been a breakout season. Reports indicate that Cowser will enter 2026 fully healthy, and seems poised to take on the center field job full-time. The Orioles are betting on a bounce back from the […]
There will soon come a day when the Upstairs Pub and Buffalouies no longer serve the most hotly pursued wings in Bloomington. Give it a year or two and that honor will belong to Indiana men’s basketball’s head coach, Darian DeVries. DeVries is trying to build the program back into one that sits in the […]
It was an eventful weekend around Indiana Athletics. Curt Cignetti’s national championship football program remains in the news, we got some insight into Teri Moren’s women’s basketball program (which promptly beat Northwestern to earn its first Big Ten win) and Darian DeVries’ men’s basketball team handed UCLA its first home loss after an… interesting final […]
With just minutes to go before the Syracuse Orange tipped off against Notre Dame, an announcement came out that certainly caught plenty of fans off guard. The team announced its starting lineup via social media, as per usual. What was different this time around: Sadiq White Jr. would take the court first at the four […]
The NBA announced their final selections for the All Star game last night. Here are all the selections. Which begs the obvious question: Who were the snubs? While this isn’t an exhaustive list, here are some players that were NOT named to the All Star team (in no particular order): Michael Porter Jr. Joel Embiid […]
Welcome to the Game Day Thread for the games in the week of 2/2. The Predators won the week last week though it certainly wasn’t pretty. If we could play all three periods the way we played the last two Saturday, our results could be much better. Shout out to Roman Josi’s 200th goal! Three games left before the Olympic break – can we get all six points? Games this week are: Monday 2/2 vs Saint Louis Blues 7pm Central on FanDuel and ESPN Wednesday 2/4 vs Minnesota Wild 7...
WBB picks up huge road win at Maryland MBB loses again at home to Iowa Football picks up 2 2027 OT commits Highlight of the Day: Highlights from Oregon’s win at Maryland
Hello and happy Monday, friends. It’s not just any regular Monday, though…it’s Truck Day! Did Wally leave you any baseball equipment under your Truck Day Tree this year? Hope your work gives you the holiday today. If not, I guess time-and-a-half ain’t so bad. While the rest of the sporting world will have its eyes […]
The Los Angeles Lakers visited MSG and returned home without a win. Too bad, it turns out they ran into the hottest team in the league—that is, your New York Knicks. Here’s a lot of what was said before and after yesterday’s affair. Mike Brown On practice time and recent changes: “We’ve had a chance […]
Just as things were looking more normal for the Sixers, we got some unexpected news. Because these are still your Philadelphia 76ers… After a couple of solid wins last week, we heard that Paul George has been suspended 25 games for violating the NBA’s anti-drug policy. Nevertheless, the Sixers are at least entering a new […]
Jason Kidd’s F-bomb tirade drew national attention for obvious reasons. NBA coaches rarely go full scorched earth on the media, even when they clearly want to. The presser clip circulated widely, elevated by the sheer novelty of the language. And in a league wired for viral reaction, most commentary stopped there: the outburst itself, the […]
The NFL was off this weekend, as the Super Bowl awaits next Sunday. The pre-Super Bowl bye week was even extra quiet this year thanks to the Pro Bowl Games being moved out to Tuesday. But what stayed busy was the league’s hiring cycle. The final two head coaching vacancies now appear to be filled, […]
With Selection Sunday less than six weeks away, we’ll periodically examine where IU basketball stands in bracketology projections. The full 2026 NCAA tournament field will be revealed on Sunday, March 15, 2026. Indiana basketball is 15-7 overall and 6-5 in ... The post Bracketology watch: Where IU basketball stands in recent projections appeared first on Inside the Hall | Indiana Hoosiers Basketball News, Recruiting and Analysis .
Any great NFL team starts with a great quarterback and an exceptional offensive line. Good coaches and GMs realize that the offense will only go as far as the offensive line will take them. Can’t run block? No running game. Poor protection on passing downs? Drives stall, incompletions rise, and interceptions and sacks become the […]
We’re just hitting the two-thirds mark of the regular season. The Olympic break is days away, the trade deadline is still over a month away, and a million things can change between now and April. Is it too early to start thinking about the playoffs? Probably. But like a little kid noticing the Christmas decorations starting to go up in November, it’s OK to start looking ahead just a bit. And that feels especially true right now, when a peek at the standings hints at a first round that could be...
Meet the Mets Juan Soto was officially announced as a member of the Dominican Republic’s World Baseball Classic team. The Mets are reportedly one of the teams interested in the services of free agent first baseman and hit-by-pitch-accumulator Ty France. Around the National League East Ten days out from pitchers and catchers reporting, Nick Castellanos […]
This week could be a fun week for the remaining MLB free agents. With the start of Spring Training less than two weeks away for nearly all of baseball, many notable names remained unsigned. As a result, we could see several signings this week, and teams will continue to fill needs for 2026 and beyond. […]
The Idaho State Bengals (10-12, 3-6 Big Sky) will visit the Portland State Vikings (14-6, 8-1 Big Sky) after losing three straight road games. Portland State was victorious in its previous game versus Montana State, 63-54, on Saturday. Keyon Kensie led the way with 24 points, and also had six rebounds and four assists. Idaho State lost its most recent game to Weber State, 81-79, on Saturday. Connor Hollenbeck starred with 27 points, plus seven boards and two assists. When is Portland State...
