It’s out of the frying pan and into the fire for the Atlanta Braves. Despite today being an off-day, they’ll have little time to come down from their big statement series-win in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. They’ll be coming home to welcome in the high-flying Cubs who have also gotten off to a very […]
There are over three months until the 2026 NFL Draft, but with the Kansas City Chiefs’ offseason underway, it’s time to consider what draft prospects the Chiefs could select with the ninth overall pick. On Sunday, Pro Football Focus analyst Gordon McGuinness published a first-round mock draft that had two popular names for the Chiefs’ pick […]
The San Francisco 49ers’ 35-point defeat was the second-largest margin in a playoff game in franchise history. After the game, head coach Kyle Shanahan said, “It’s a loss, but definitely don’t make more of it than it was. It was a loss.” That’s an impressive perspective to have after walking off the field to a […]
No. 1-seed Indiana (14-0, 9-0 Big Ten) is set to take on No. 10-seed Miami (11-3, 7-1 SEC) in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game on Monday night at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. The Hoosiers got here after beating previous No. 1 Ohio State in the Big Ten Football Championship Game, […]
Zach Charbonnet’s season-ending knee injury was a huge bummer for the Seattle Seahawks ahead of the NFC Championship game. However, that was not the only injury news for Seattle. Head coach Mike Macdonald also called starting left tackle Charles Cross “day-to-day” with a foot injury. Cross started the Divisional Game against the San Francisco 49ers […]
One of the first coordinators to be hired this cycle was not a particularly hot name on the market. Everyone and their mother wants former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel to call offensive plays for their team next year, but that enthusiasm never built around Drew Petzing, who, like head coach Jonathan Gannon, was […]
Caleb Williams, attacked for his skill by homophobes upset with his painted fingernails, made one of the great NFL passes ever. The post Caleb Williams and his painted nails made one of the greatest throws in NFL history appeared first on Outsports .
After suffering a loss against Wisconsin during the first game of their two-game road trip, Rutgers will head to Iowa City with the hopes of knocking off the Hawkeyes. The Scarlet Knights finished their game against the Badgers on a strong note and will look to continue that momentum against Iowa. The Hawkeyes, who were […]
One of the perks that Tom Brady enjoys as Las Vegas Raiders minority owner? His gig with Fox Sports affords him the opportunity to broadcast and watch postseason games. And, as the Silver & Black continues its hunt for a head coach, Brady got a bird’s eye view of one of the candidates the team […]
Amidst a special triple-header Martin Luther King Jr. Day slate of national games on NBC/Peacock, the NBA’s 10 All-Star starters for next month were announced. And no, injured Chicago Bulls point guard Josh Giddey — the Bulls’ best player this year — did not make the cut. After missing 10 straight games for Chicago with a hamstring strain, there’s a decent chance Giddey won’t be named an All-Star reserve this year, either. He’s been enjoying a breakout run, averaging a near-triple-double ...
The Portland Trail Blazers have finally regained a .500 record, standing at 22-22 after 44 games of their 2025-26 regular season. This is more or less in line with their preseason expectations, fighting for a spot in the Play-In Tournament for the 2026 NBA Playoffs. Winning 3 in a row and 10 of their last […]
As 2026 continues to look more and more like an “all-in” season for the Chicago Cubs, we cannot discount the possibility of more additions to the 2026 roster this offseason. Logically, of course, that makes sense. But even more reassuringly, both President Jed Hoyer and GM Carter Hawkins have indicated as much, even suggesting that – for once – paying the luxury tax isn’t a concern or impediment to any moves they may want to make before Opening Day. But when you look around the diamond/ro...
You have probably seen two similar but very different ways to express an opinion with money on the line. One is a sportsbook. The other is a prediction market. At a glance, they can look alike. You pick an outcome. You risk money. You get paid if you are right. But the structure, incentives, and rules behind each are very different. If you want to decide which fits your goals, your risk tolerance, and your style of decision making, you need to understand how they actually work. This ...
Following wins over Marquette and Villanova in the last week, St. John’s is on the brink of returning to the top 25. The Red Storm received 64 votes in the Associated Press’s week 11 men’s basketball poll, tied with Wisconsin for the most among unranked teams. Notable poll voters like Jon Rothstein, Dick Vitale, Seth […]
There are teams that are always ready to take the 'big swing' on the trade front. We saw the Vegas Golden Knights hit their home run already this weekend by obtaining Rasmus Andersson from the Calgary Flames. Carolina is another team always ready to go big game hunting. Dallas, even San Jose now, are others. But don't count out the NHL's newest ownership group: the Utah Mammoth. David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period told Jeff Marek on The Sheet that he expects Utah to be "agg...
For the first time in his career, Luka Dončić led the league in voting en route to the sixth All-Star selection of his career. Luka was named a starter for the Western Conference — which means effectively nothing since it’ll be USA vs. World teams — on Monday. Joining Luka from the west is Nikola […]
In his first season as a member of the Jets he will play his first game in the place he called home for 15 years.
Barcelona saw their 11-game winning streak snapped on Sunday as they slumped to a 2-1 defeat to Real Sociedad in La Liga. A tough night in the Basque Country saw Barcelona have three goals ruled out, a penalty awarded and then scrubbed off and the team hit the woodwork on four different occasions. Frenkie de […]
Fresh off an impressive 80-63 win Saturday at Washington, Michigan State will look to close out Oregon and return home at 17-2 overall and 7-1 in the Big Ten. Michigan State faced Oregon twice last year – once at the Breslin Center and again in the Big Ten tournament. MSU won both matchups but Oregon […]
The East-West Shrine Bowl practices for the 2026 cycle get underway on January 23, 2026, in Frisco, Texas. Alongside the Panini Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, the Shrine Bowl is a key stop on the pre-draft all-star circuit, giving notable 2026 NFL Draft prospects a chance to put their talent on display in front of […]
We’re less than a month away from pitchers and catchers reporting, which means that in about 10 weeks, we’ll have real baseball to cover. Until such time, we’ll be covering something called hypothetical baseball, where the headlines feature player-team combinations that may never come to fruition, proposed storylines that bear absolutely no fruit, and rumors […]
Okay, that line is slightly tongue-in-cheek. But only slightly. To be fair, it’s not particularly the Dodgers that broke baseball. Jesse Friedman made a salient post on Twitter, which I largely agree with. All of these statements can be true at once:1) Dodgers are doing precisely what they should be doing.2) They probably won’t win […]
The Avalanche have accomplished a lot of firsts this season. First team in the League to reach 70 points. First team to win 30 regular season games. First team to have multiple ten game winning streaks. First team to lose just one game in regulation on home ice. With a win against the Washington Capitals […]
Let’s all agree, NO MORE WEEKS OFF! Against Georgia Tech the Wolfpack was the more talented team as evidenced by playing with very little energy, apparently having forgotten the positive steps forward made in the previous two games, and our primary scorers barely scoring at all in the first half, and yet still having an […]
Kentucky Football is not finished reshaping its roster through the transfer portal, and its latest move shows a continued focus on building strength up front. On Monday, On3 reported that the Wildcats added edge rusher Tyler Thomas, a transfer from South Alabama, giving head coach Will Stein’s staff another piece for a rebuilt defense. Thomas […]
He’s here. Kevin Stefanski is Atlanta’s newest head coach, and he faces a daunting job with these Falcons fresh off a rough stint in Cleveland. The Falcons were one of the league’s most exciting teams a decade ago and Stefanski one of its most promising coaches more recently than that, but the past several years […]
