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 […]
In the second half of the season, Daylen Lile was a breakout star for the Washington Nationals. His smooth stroke and aggression on the bases made him a fan favorite in DC. He brought back memories of other Nats pure hitters like Daniel Murphy and Howie Kendrick. However, the one comparison that comes up the […]
There is only one match on Boxing Day this year, but tomorrow brings a ton of Premier League action. For whatever reason, almost all of the games are on Saturday this weekend, not Sunday. And although Friday is a holiday too, Newcastle United at Manchester United is the only match scheduled for that day. The […] The post Aston Villa at Chelsea Predicted Starting XIs, Match Preview appeared first on The Sports Bank .
The Toronto Maple Leafs have had somewhat of a nightmare season and are second-last in the Eastern Conference with 37 points (16-15-5). There have been plenty of injuries, underperforming players, and assistant coach Marc Savard already let go, but more is going to be in store for the Maple Leafs if they don't go on a run very soon. The next to go will have to be head coach Craig Berube, despite comments that Berube and GM Brad Treliving are safe. Organizations will always say that until it ge...

Make a list of all the reasons why the Dodger bullpen was not what any of us envisioned at the start of last season, and right at or near the top, you’ll find the absence of Evan Phillips. This bullpen’s most reliable player since he broke out in 2022, Phillips, saw basically his entire 2025 […]
Well, here we go. The real road to a repeat national championship begins on New Year’s Eve when the Ohio State Buckeyes take on the Miami Hurricanes in the College Football Quarterfinals at the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic. If it feels like January of 2003, that’s valid (if you know, you know). Unlike last year […]
A peaceful Christmas featuring a walk back from church, a trip to my pops (where I think he enjoyed the batch of peanut butter blossom cookies I made him), and a night watching Return of the Jedi (dueling red and green lightsabers makes it a Christmas movie to me!) really hit the mark. Plus, I didn’t have to argue with anyone about the Bears or quarterback Caleb Williams. I hope your day was as wonderful as mine. Happy Friday, friends. I got a hearty chuckle reading Brett’s BN Cubs Bull...
The 2025-26 Pittsburgh Penguins might not be particularly good as a team. Especially when it comes to their defense and current level of goaltending. But they do have some good players, and they have some really intriguing young players that could be really good players in the coming seasons. The best of that group is […]
Welcome to Oilersnation’s top 10 stories of the year, where we count down the most-read stories you, the reader, clicked on in 2025. The Edmonton Oilers navigating through Mattias Ekholm’s injury in last year’s playoffs certainly was a big story. Injured late in the regular season, he wouldn’t return until the final game of the…
Joined by friend Matt Strauss, we remember two modern Weird Islanders who felt like they were around more than they actually were; Parker Wotherspoon because of his many years in the AHL and Dmytro Timashov because of how he came to the Islanders. Parker Wotherspoon is not an exciting player. As a defensive defenseman, his […]
It’s the day after Christmas, which in some regions is known as Boxing Day, though here in America it is known as the day we return the stuff we didn’t really want for Christmas. Though maybe we should not be so quick to return everything (even if it is for cash) and enjoy the gift […]
Entering the game, Dak Prescott discussed his intention to play the last two games of the season, as he said, to not “cheat” the game. Once the opening whistle sounded, the game turned from a one-sided affair to a classic, tight NFC East finish, regardless of who was in the lineup for either team. The […]

More coaching changes are coming to the Syracuse Orange. According to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, tight ends coach Nunzio Campanile is set to be hired by UConn as its new offensive coordinator. Thamel also reported that Syracuse is hiring Perry Eliano as its new defensive backs coach. Campanile joined the Orange in 2023 as its tight […]
Christmas Day games usually represent the moment the rest of sports fandom tunes back into the NBA and takes stock. They’re an important measuring stick, a real indicator of where the featured teams stand after the first 30 or so games of a season. Adam Silver and the NBA office obviously knew this, and they scheduled their holiday slate accordingly. Although the NBA’s prognoses weren’t totally on-point (the Eastern Conference’s top-seeded Detroit Pistons were nowhere to be found on ...
In the latest (and potentially final) component of the controlled demolition of the holdover Mets’ core, Jeff McNeil was traded to the Athletics last week for RHP Yordan Rodriguez. The Mets are also covering $5.75M of McNeil’s 2026 salary as well as his buyout to 2027 to incentivize the Athletics to take on his deal. […]

Was it a good year for Bryce Harper in 2025? Was it a bad year? Was it a weird year? Whatever it was, it sure felt like something was off altogether with Bryce Harper all season, like he was just going through the motions as the season progressed. Was he injured? Was he healthy? Was […]
The Kansas City Chiefs entered their Week 17 matchup against the Denver Broncos with nothing tangible at stake; there was no path to the postseason and no realistic way to climb the standings. Yet on a cool Christmas night on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City played like a team that still believed the […]
Another week, another UGLY win. This time, Houston inched their way past the Las Vegas Raiders in one of the more mediocre performances in the DeMeco Ryans era. The offense looked stumped and the defensive line finally showed cracks. Whether the Texans are playing like a “playoff team” or not, they’re at the precipice of […]
Jonathan Taylor & defense Colts keys vs. Jags! IU v Bama – Crimson fest! Pacers host Celtics tonight!
A pair of Minnesota Vikings set records on Thursday afternoon in the team’s 23-10 victory over the Detroit Lions. Since it’s time to talk about the positives that came out of the victory, let’s talk a bit about them now. The first one is a record that I think a lot of us expected to […]
Obviously, there is a theme over the last week and throughout the whole season. The theme is that the offense sucks and many people still think Nick Caley needs to be shown the door. I came out a little over a week ago and argued that Caley should stay even though I had been banging […]
