During his speech, Wagner took a moment to lighten the mood by drawing attention to his new honorary doctorate. “If you didn’t know, my name is now […]
Your 2026 New York Mets: It just didn’t go our way there “It was close. Especially from our angle, I couldn’t tell. And whatever they called on the field, I was pretty sure it was going to stand. And we called down and [replay analyst] Harrison [Friedland] said the same thing — there’s not an […]
2026 has been a breakout season for CJ Abrams on the offensive side of the ball, posting a .401 OBP, .960 OPS, and hitting 9 home runs entering play today. He is hitting the ball harder than ever, and his improved approach at the plate has led to a career-low strikeout rate and a career-high […]
When the Dallas Mavericks concluded their 2025-2026 campaign — one of the worst seasons in franchise history with a 26-56 record — all eyes turned to the NBA draft. Fans are hoping the team can notch a top pick like they did last season when their 1.9% chance to get the No. 1 pick turned […]
The first inning of Andrew Painter’s start against the Athletics was a painful one. The first four batters all reached base safely and all scored thanks to home runs by Shea Langeliers and Brent Rooker. The pitch to Langeliers was a bad one, one that got appropriately punished, but the home run to Rooker wasn’t […]
Mizzou baseball returns to Columbia this weekend looking for a needed rest, and its opponent coming into Columbia — the Vanderbilt Commodores — are trying to navigate their own late‑season slide. The Tigers will have to tangle with the Commodores this upcoming week in a three-game weekend set. Mizzou is in search of an SEC […]

Detroit Lions football under Dan Campbell has largely been rooted in trench play. For a team that boasts its physicality and grittiness, it makes sense for them to develop an identity that starts with the offensive and defensive lines. As they’ve said from the beginning, it all starts with running the ball and stopping the […]

With the news that the men’s and women’s NCAA Basketball Tournaments will be expanding to 76-team fields, plus the start of the collegiate softball postseason with baseball’s Selection Monday only a couple of weeks away, I was thinking about all the different forms that collegiate sports’ postseasons take. There’s football, with its dozens of essentially […]

One of the big stories we'll be watching this offseason is what the Vancouver Canucks ultimately wind up doing with their disappointing $92 million man, Elias Pettersson. There has been plenty of talk of a trade, but with an $11.6M AAV, it's unclear if there is a team out there that would be willing to take that chance of EP40 regaining his mojo. However, Brian Burke, a former Stanley Cup-winning general manager and a multi-time president of hockey operations, feels that a trade is inevi...
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Travis Sanheim didn’t pull any punches last night after Taylor Hall’s controversial hit on him in the second period. And it sounds like neither Sanheim nor Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet got any explanation as to why the rather cheap, gutless headshot didn’t result in a five-minute major and a game misconduct.
With just over four minutes left to go in the second period, and the game tied 1-1, Sanheim was battling for the puck along the boards in the defensiv...
After two losses at Madison Square Garden, the Sixers return home for the first time in over a week facing another two-game deficit in a best-of-seven series against one of their rivals.

The Miami Heat's offseason aggressiveness will be dictated by what transpires at the NBA Draft Lottery.
We learned after the game on Thursday that Jake Bennett has been sent down to Triple-A. Jack Anderson, who allowed three runs in 8 1/3 innings in his first stint in the majors, will be the corresponding promotion. Other moves are likely on the horizon. Justin Slaten seemingly threw his final rehab outing for Worcester […]
