Getting you set up for tonight’s Jets game.
Astros general manager Dana Brown gave a very telling quote while talking with reporters in Orlando at last week’s winter meetings in his quest to improve his team’s roster. “Most of these teams, they’re not really asking much about the young prospects right now, so there’s a chance that we may have to trade from […]
Whether you want word association, half-assed attempts at understanding what it is a Kennesaw State is, or an overwhelming sense of ennui toward college football, this preview has it all. First, Jesse, good afternoon. Long time, no talk. Jesse: Wait, do I still work here? Am… am I a real person? IS THIS ALL A […]

It also could’ve gone worse. And it didn’t do that, either. All things considered, not a top 50 disappointing game in Seattle Seahawks history. It had all the right ingredients for a catastrophe casserole, but in the end nobody choked. An afternoon that definitely started annoying was quelled before reaching full rage-inducing mode. In conclusion, […]
Real Madrid’s narrow 2–1 victory over Alavés at Mendizorroza was again marred by another refereeing controversy — this time involving Vinícius Jr., whose electric run late in the match should have resulted in a clear penalty.

De’Von Achane enters Monday Night Football as one of the most discussed skill players on the slate. You are looking at a matchup that naturally pushes bettors toward prop markets. Pittsburgh games often create clear decision points. Volume versus efficiency. Explosiveness versus defensive discipline. Achane sits right at the center of that tension. Now cleared from the injury report, De’Von should be a big part of the Miami game plan tonight.
This preview focuses on how to approach his ru...
With each passing poor performance, talk of Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll going one and done with the team has become louder and louder on a national level. Actually, it seems that the general assumption is Carroll will not return in 2026 with the team being 2-12 and uncompetitive on a weekly basis. Carroll’s […]
MLB RUMORS — Munetaka Murakami, the younger, homer-happy free agent slugger from Japan with strikeout issues, has until December 22 at 4pm CT to sign with a big league team. If he doesn’t, he’ll have to head back to Japan. So … how come there are literally NO rumors about his potential interests or suitors?
Even Ken Rosenthal, who still expects Murakami to land a deal before time expires next Monday, concedes that “his destination remains a mystery.” It’s pretty odd, especially now that ...
This is a San Francisco 49ers site, but this discussion is about the New York Jets, who fired defensive coordinator Steve Wilks on Monday.

One of the game’s greats continues to rack up the honours. On Monday, the NHL announced that Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid has been named the league’s First Star of the Week.

Playoffs? Playoffs?! After the Dallas Cowboys lost at home to the Minnesota Vikings, they aren’t eliminated from the postseason. However, their chances are very bleak.

What exactly is the state of play vis a vis a potential Jarren Duran trade with the Royals? Here’s one MLB insider who seems to be implying three somewhat contradictory things: (1) Kansas City is actively targeting Duran, (2) the Red Sox are asking for Cole Ragens in return, and (3) the trade talks themselves […]
The Portland Trail Blazers have had an interesting week. They lost to the New Orleans Pelicans in dramatic fashion. Then they bounced back with a semi-gutsy win against the Golden State Warriors, whose number they appear to have on speed dial. 1-1 may not seem like a definitive record, but when you’re used to losing […]
