The New England Patriots already know their 2026 opponents, and have done so since the end of the regular season in January. What they do not know yet, however, is when they will play all of them. With the NFL Draft in the rear view mirror and the calendar having turned to May, that mystery […]
It’s not easy to evaluate the offensive line. For years, Trent Williams propped up what was an average, at best, line to his right. Things began to shift last season. While left guard remained a question for the San Francisco 49ers due to injury, center, right guard, and right tackle were viewed closer to strengths […]
Pittsburgh Penguins general manager/president of hockey operations Kyle Dubas met with the media on Tuesday for his end-of-season press conference, and he discussed a wide range of significant topics. At the top of the list: Evgeni Malkin’s future with the Penguins, where the Penguins currently stand in the NHL with the progress they made this […]
The Phillies and Red Sox have a lot in common this season. After making the playoffs in 2025, both teams made offseason moves that weren’t embraced by many fans. And both got off to poor starts that resulted in an early season firing of the manager. Another thing the teams have in common: They’ve gotten […]
The WNBA officially kicked off this past Friday, and Northwestern has two former Wildcats playing on opposite ends of the country. Two years ago, Golden State Valkyries guard Veronica Burton was trying to carve her way back into the league after being waived by the Dallas Wings. Last season, Minnesota Lynx forward Nia Coffey averaged […]
The Cincinnati Reds have a leadoff problem, and they’re well aware of it. As TJ Friedl struggled through one of the worst stretches of his (or anyone’s) career, we watched as manager Terry Francona lightly shuffled his lineup over the weekend as the Reds eschewed their recent 8-game losing streak and managed to win the […]
Plenty of critiques are coming at the Portland Trail Blazers following their 42-40 regular season and first-round exit against the San Antonio Spurs in the 2026 NBA Playoffs. Most analysts see Portland’s roster as promising, with a few deep flaws. 98% of those have to do with scoring. The Blazers can defend when they want […]
Ever since the Louisville-Kentucky football rivalry game’s permanent move to the final week of the regular season, there has been a clamoring from both fan bases to transport the Battle for the Governor’s Cup back to week one. Now, UK’s new head coach — and U of L’s former quarterback — is joining that group […]
The Astros hit a new low with Monday’s 3-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners. They are now 10 games below .500 after crossing the quarter pole of the season on a three-game losing streak. That skid comes on the heels of a 16-game stretch in which the Astros managed to play .500 baseball against the New York […]
We know the opponents the Kansas City Chiefs will face during the 2026 regular season, and aside from the ever hated division rivalries like the Denver Prostrated Peyton’s Broncos and the Las Vegas Brady Simps Raiders (we also play the Los Angeles Chargers twice, if you care about that sort of thing), the Chiefs face […]
It’s Tuesday, it’s Dots. It is the dead of the off season, so we start today with a report on B1G revenue sharing. To the Dots! Dots
The 2026 NFL schedule will be released in full on Thursday, May 14 around 8 p.m. ET.

On this week’s PODcast, we make […]
Just two weeks/rounds of the 2025-26 Premier League season remain, and as it stands right now, both Liverpool and Aston Villa are in line for UEFA Champions League qualification. The two sides will meet on Friday, kicking off Match Day 37 weekend. Both are in need of a result here, as red hot AFC Bournemouth […] The post Liverpool Team News at Aston Villa: Florian Wirtz, Mo Salah, Ibrahima Konate, Alisson appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Andrew Joseph Ewing attended Springboro High School in Springboro, Ohio, where he was a multi-sport athlete who also played football. A baseball rat, his skill on the diamond quickly began outpacing his skill on the gridiron, earning him All-Conference First Team honors in his sophomore, junior, and senior seasons and All-Southwestern Ohio Conference honors in […]

It was an honor for him to contact us about sharing this piece at our site and we think you’ll appreciate his excellent hockey insights). Give him a follow on Bluesky! Roman Kantserov’s arrival has Blackhawks fans excited and they should be, as he led the KHL in goals this season at just 21 years old. His stats and accomplishments are drawing comparisons to...
Among the many dumb things on the NFL calendar, “schedule release week” is right up there at the top. Why does this need to be dragged out over multiple days? The schedule is finished. It’s done. The league knows when all the games are going to be played. No last minute details are being hammered […]
The Big Ten announced its men’s basketball home, away and double-play opponents for the 2026-27 season today.

Pittsburgh general manager Kyle Dubas met with the media on Tuesday for his annual end of season press conference. We’ll have more on the entire message later, the big question and the first one asked of Dubas was about the status of Evgeni Malkin. Malkin is a free agent on July 1 and has made […]
With free agency and the NFL Draft behind us, now’s a good time to take a look at how the 2026 Philadelphia Eagles depth chart is shaping up. We’ll start today with the offense before moving on to defense and special teams. After that, we’ll post our first 53-man roster projection ahead of the upcoming […]
The wait continues to find out the first opponent the reigning Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks will play this September. Thanks to the NFL’s marketing genius of slow-releasing the full schedule, we’re able to do process of elimination as far as what’s in store for the Seahawks in Week 1. Patrick Mahomes might be recovering […]
Whether intentional, unintentional or something in between, when Sean McVay appeared grumpy during the Los Angeles Rams press conference on the same night L.A. selected Ty Simpson as the 13th overall pick, it was McVay’s appearance and reaction that became the story as much as the selection. Was McVay upset about the Simpson pick? Was […]
Matvei Michkov sat down for his exit interviews Tuesday morning in what most fans thought was going to be the most interesting exit interview for the Philadelphia Flyers in quite some time. With all the noise surrounding Michkov about his potentially unstable future with the Flyers and how head coach Rick Tocchet might not be his biggest fan right now, and just other annoying stuff when you just want to enjoy watching a player you like on the ice — it was going to be a hot ticket to get r...
The San Francisco 49ers made a major splash this offseason, landing Raheem Morris as their next defensive coordinator after losing Robert Saleh to the Tennessee Titans. Morris, who had previously been the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons before being fired, was considered one of the top defensive coordinator candidates on the market. He reunited […]
Knowing when to go for it defined Clint Dempsey as iconic. The leaders of the team need to be laying an active claim on that legacy.
Imagine just days after one of the most gut-wrenching losses in your career, you and your teammates were embroiled in a public scandal after a scathing article accused you of being a team of drug addicts. That’s what happened to the Edmonton Oilers in 1985-86. Steve Smith infamously banked the puck off of Grant Fuhr’s…
There’s not a ton to be gleaned from the Atlanta Braves’ first quarter release, especially since they did not report revenue from BravesVision. No matter. There were a few nuggets in the earnings release and call. There was also confirmation of some items that, if you were reading Battery Power, you should already expect. But […]
