Ali Act: APBC ‘vehemently objects’ to ‘abomination’ proposal

With the California State Athletic Commission recently voting unanimously to support a bill that would effectively gut the Ali Act, which has heavy support from the coming TKO boxing group but faced significant public backlash immediately, the Association of Professional Boxing Commissions (APBC) has stepped forward with clear opposition. The APBC say that they “vehemently […]

Vic Fangio’s depleted defense is figuring it out

While most of the attention during this up-and-down 2025 season has understandably been focused on the Eagles’ confoundingly inconsistent offense, Vic Fangio’s defense has been unable to match last year’s pace. Of course, that’s understandable. The 2024 Birds defense is one of the most complete we’ve ever seen. They gave up the fewest yards of […]

A New Uniform, Starting the Season Without Coby White, Matas Buzelis Takeover? And Other Bulls Bullets

Chicago Bulls basketball is two days away. Brace yourself. To celebrate opening week, the Bulls officially unveiled their 2025-26 City Edition uniforms ! Fans will have to wait until December to get an on-court look at the newest threads, but the initial photos have already won me over. I’ve been critical of some jersey designs in the past, and I’m still not sure the NBA should be forcing teams to roll out something new every year. With that being the case, I love that they kept this ye...

Tyler Bertuzzi Making an Early Impact for the Blackhawks

Tyler Bertuzzi’s first season with the Chicago Blackhawks was solid overall. Bertuzzi finished the season with 23 goals in 82 games, the second-highest goal total of his career and the first time he appeared in all 82 games. But that didn’t come without discussion about his consistency. As Scott Powers wrote for The Athletic back on March 23, Bertuzzi’s saw stretches last season where he “had zero goals and seven assists in 20 games. Before that, he had 12 goals and five assists in 20 gam...

Le Pagelle: Juventus vs. Como

How did everyone fare? Here are our rankings. MICHELE DI GREGORIO – 6. Made a few good saves and was generally in control of […]

Milwaukee Brewers Will Reportedly Field Trade Offers for Freddy Peralta

Freddy Peralta has been an outstanding pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers for the past eight seasons, giving the Chicago Cubs fits along the way. He has become something of an anchor for the Brewers rotation, pitching like an ace in 2025, and is just 29 years old. So it’s high time for the Brewers to trade him. From The Athletic : “In this case, as the winter unfolds, the Brewers are expected to at least field offers for starting pitcher Freddy Peralta, according to people fami...

Rick Tocchet sees shades of Mikko Rantanen in Flyers’ Owen Tippett

When you think of Owen Tippett’s career thus far as a member of the Philadelphia Flyers, there are a handful of highlights. There’s the end to end rush against Montreal where he blew by everyone and nearly scored the game-winning goal. And then there’s the razzle dazzle play against Dallas that had most of the league taking notice. But a lot of times the biggest question has been why can’t he play like that more often. Well, according to Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet, Tippett has been st...
