Once again, Barcelona are La Liga champions under Hansi Flick. It’s officially an era to remember. The exciting thing is to imagine that it’s just getting started after the manager signed a new two-year contract to extend his time at the Camp Nou. There were unforgettable moments, such as the winning the league at home […]
There is a universal truth in the NFL that has been around as long as the league itself. No team has sustained championship success without a top-flight quarterback. That is not to imply that coaching does not matter, as the idea that a coach can just “roll out the balls” and titles will follow if […]
Last offseason’s biggest name on the free agent market was superstar Juan Soto. Fresh off a top-three finish in the American League MVP race, accumulating his career best fWAR and home runs, he headed into free agency looking for one of the biggest contracts in the history of sports. And he got that and more, […]
As you know, the Cubs did try to sign Alex Bregman last offseason. They made him a four-year, $130 million offer. That’s an AAV of $35 million, which would have been the highest AAV for any contract in Cubs history. Bregman turned that deal down and instead signed a three-year, $120 million ($40 million AAV) […]
Welcome to the 2025 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2025. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). […]
One of the highlights of the offseason is the Hall of Fame discourse. Every year a new ballot comes out and voters decide who will head to Cooperstown. This year it will be very intriguing because there are no obvious first ballot Hall of Famers. For my money, Andruw Jones is the most likely of […]
Since their first bye week of the season Oregon’s offense had gotten off to slow starts against Indiana, Wisconsin, and Iowa (they scored at will against a Rutgers team that by some metrics is the worst of all 18 defenses in the Big Ten). The trend was shattered against Minnesota at home: after both teams […]

Utah State fell to 5-5 (3-3) in the Mountain West after losing a thriller to UNLV on the road, 29-26. After hitting a 39-yard field goal in the 2nd overtime, Kayden McGee took UNLV into the endzone on a 25-yard run for the victory. Bryson Barnes was able to pass the ball for 256 yards […]

The Mavericks were 1-3 this past week, but moved up to 13th place in the West. Two hard-fought losses to Phoenix (123-114) and the Clippers (133-127, 2OT) preceded an awesome overtime win against Portland (138-133, OT). Unfortunately, three overtimes in three days took its toll, and the Mavericks suffered another loss in Minnesota (120-96). Cooper […]

The Detroit Red Wings are still holding their own 1/4 of the way through the season and are second in their division with a record of 11-7-1, having won five of their last 10 games. Whether they are competing or not, there are a couple of players they'd like to get rid of to clear out cap space and roster spots for the youth or new players. David Pagnotta said, "If this is where the team is going to be...a wildcard bubble team...the more we're going to hear of guys like JT Compher and Andrew C...

Virgil van Dijk has a lot of respect for Steven Gerrard, but he believes there is one former player who has the edge over Liverpool’s longest serving captain.

Today is one of the more significant days of the offseason, regardless of whether the Sox make any trades or significant free agent signings. That’s because it’s the final day to finalize the 40-man roster. While there has been speculation that Tanner Houck, who may miss all of 2026 and is a free agent after […]
The Cleveland Browns defense did everything they could to keep the team in the game against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11, but the Browns offense, including QB Shedeur Sanders, just couldn’t get anything going. The Sanders conversation, including HC Kevin Stefanski not wanting to play the young quarterback this season, will dominate the conversation […]
2024 was George Springer’s fourth season with the Blue Jays, after signing a six-year $150 million contract. And, ummm, it wasn’t a very good season. Since 2022 his bWAR had been falling, from 4.2 to 2.0 to 1.1. I’m probably wasn’t alone in thinking that he was aging out of where he could be a […]
The Wisconsin Badgers are now 4-0 on the season with a 94-69 win over the SIU-Edwardsville Cougars on Monday night.

Despite Wisconsin holding a 48-41 halftime lead, the Cougars created issues for the […]
The San Francisco 49ers are sitting at 7-4 after beating the Arizona Cardinals 41-22 over the weekend, bumping them back into the playoff picture as the No. 7 seed in the NFL. After a 3-0 start, the 49ers have alternated games the last eight weeks, going 4-4 during that period while failing to rack up […]
In some ways, Week 11 felt like another bye week for the Packers. I know they played a game and we all watched it, but I didn’t come away from the win over the Giants feeling like I had a new grasp on this Packers team. Nor did I feel like the Packers answered any […]
The United States Men’s National Team take the field for the final time in 2025 as they take on Uruguay in Tampa. It’s the first time the two teams have faced each other since the final match of the 2024 Copa América group stage, a match won by Uruguay in Kansas City that led to […]
