Expanding the NBA from 30 to 32 teams has been an on-again, off-again discussion for much of this millennium. The issue often arises when new Collective Bargaining Agreements are negotiated. It nearly always accompanies broadcast rights talks. Last year, when the NBA was in the midst of wrangling multi-billion-dollar deals out of broadcast partners, it […]
Here we go… The Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers meet again, and for the second time in three weeks, this one is for the top spot in the NFC North. This game always has our emotions sky-high, but the playoff ramifications and all the context around this one have taken it to another […]
During his Friday press conference, Miami Dolphins’ head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed that Anthony Weaver’s defense would be without (at least) one of their top players as the team looks to right the ship on Sunday vs. the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Philadelphia Flyers have created a little bit more flexibility on the blue line. Defenseman Egor Zamula was placed on waivers Thursday afternoon, and, well, the 25-year-old has gone unclaimed and now can be sent down to the AHL’s Lehigh Valley Phantoms without worry. It is not very surprising that no team wanted to add a depth defender who can’t even outplay Noah Juulsen or a player who was just in college a few months ago. All 3 players from yesterday cleared — Elliotte Fr...
The Cleveland Browns find themselves in the midst of another lost season. As they prepare to host the Buffalo Bills, they’re firmly in evaluation mode, having already been eliminated from postseason play. Cleveland may not have the victories, but they do have a strong defense, one that can give any team problems on any given […]
Purdue welcomes Auburn to Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Saturday for the fourth iteration of the Indy Classic.

It hurts. It stings. As it should. The Los Angeles Rams (11-4) did not finish all 60 minutes (and then some) and that is why they are now in 5th place in the NFC. Thursday night was another example of Los Angeles still having yet to prove that they can consistently close out games. Ever […]

Gameweek 16 didn’t go as planned, as several of my predictions failed to deliver. In goal, Emiliano Martínez was expected to start but didn’t feature, which meant Petrovic was subbed in. Unfortunately, he endured a tough outing, conceding four goals against Manchester United and finishing the week with just 1 point. The defense was particularly […]
Clayton Kershaw has ridden off into the sunset as an unlikely back-to-back champion. Normally, athletes who linger in their respective sports do not receive the fairytale ending they were promised as children.

The stage is set. Monday Night Football in Indianapolis. Philip Rivers starts his second game for the Colts, and a 49ers win clinches a playoff berth. DeForest Buckner should be activated off IR, setting up an old friend scenario. Unfortunately, Charvarius Ward was placed on IR, so that reunion won’t happen. The 49ers are looking […]

Last month, I wrote about Chris Denorfia’s walk-off home run, a blast that still stands as the only one in MLB history to win a scoreless game in extra innings. Before he did that, though, the versatile Denorfia became another Cubs position player to take the mound. It happened Aug. 19, 2015 at Wrigley Field […]
