Well, another rough week in a tough season continues, as I went 3-7 last week. Cal missing a game winning field goal at +6.5 only to lose by 8 in overtime pretty much speaks to how the season has gone. But on we move, and there are some fun ones to pick this weekend. As […]
The San Francisco 49ers haven’t had their 2024 first-round pick in a month. Despite missing the previous four games, Ricky Pearsall is still 29th in total EPA among all wide receivers and seventh in DVOA. Pearsall bailed out the 49ers’ offense when they were stagnant. They haven’t had the same luxury in October. Not having […]
The Montreal Canadiens made two roster moves on Thursday that will greatly help the Laval Rocket. Defenders David Reinbacher and William Trudeau, who have been out since training camp, took the next step towards being able to play AHL games.

The Blackhawks kick off a long road trip on Thursday night up in Canada against the Winnipeg Jets — and franchise icon Jonathan Toews. The Jets are off to a solid start through their first 10 games, sitting at a 7-3-0 record and looking like a team that’s found its footing early — or at least knows how to lean hard on Connor Hellebuyck until the rest catches up. The Jets are coming off a 4–3 overtime win against the Wild on Tuesday, and it’s a recap that will be familiar to Blackhawks fan...
It’s time! Tony Vitello is here, and the San Francisco Giants are introducing him as their next manager. You can watch the press conference below:
The regional nightmare which ensnared three of Michigan’s FBS programs together in infamy seems to be reaching its conclusion. On Thursday afternoon, the NCAA Committee of Infractions released their report on Central Michigan’s involvement in the ever-evolving Connor Stalions case, finding four of CMU’s former football staffers responsible in part for obstructing the investigation and […]
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month for October. The engine driving the NFL’s top offense capped off an astonishing four-game stretch with another phenomenal performance to reassert his status as one of the premier playmakers in the league. Taylor’s numbers in October were a nightmare against […]
Last week ATS: 7-8 (4-4 National, 3-4 B1G) Season ATS: 81-77 (33-40 National, 48-37 B1G) So far this year it has felt like we’ll have one big weekend a month and the rest of the time we are either a game above or below .500. It’s hard to get mad about since our season record […]
Lamar Jackson makes his much-anticipated return as the Ravens vs Dolphins kick off week 9 under the lights on Thursday Night Football. Both teams sit multiple games below .500, but are looking to continue the positive momentum from last week’s wins. The return of Jackson has sent Baltimore all the way out to a touchdown favorite against Miami, who, despite their impressive performance against Atlanta, are still short-handed at multiple positions. So, before the Ravens and Dolphins jump-start w...
It’s been quite a week at the World Series. Monday’s marathon 18-inning game ultimately went to the Dodgers on the back a number of outstanding relief appearances, including the longest of his career from the last man in LA’s bullpen, Will Klein. Klein ultimately earned the win after throwing four scoreless innings before Freddie Freeman […]
With the Detroit Lions coming off their bye week, the team’s coordinators are entering the final stretch of the season with a new perspective on the team.

The Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins should be a marquee matchup for the NFL, with both teams fighting for a playoff berth as the league schedule reaches the halfway point. Both teams come into the game with identical win totals on the year, and it feels like this could be a game that springboards a […]
With five games left in the regular season, Arizona needs to win at least two of them in order to become bowl eligible. The first opportunity comes Saturday at Colorado. The Buffaloes (3-5, 1-4 Big 12) just lost 53-7 at Utah last weekend but at home are 3-2 with the losses by one score each […]
It isn’t at the United Center, but that likely won’t change the emotions for many Blackhawks fans as they watch Jonathan Toews face his former team for the first time. The Jets come in only 3-3-0 at home (they’re undefeated on the road) and in third place in the Central Division. The Blackhawks, meanwhile, are only two points behind the Jets with both teams having played ten games. Note: Ilya Mikheyev was on the ice with the team for the morning skate, but Blackhawks head coach Jeff Bla...
Barcelona’s injury crisis claimed it’s latest victim this week as star midfielder Pedri was ruled out for the foreseeable future. The situation is a real issue for Hansi Flick and was reportedly one reason why he gave four of his first-team players some extra rest this week, according to Mundo Deportivo. Marcus Rashford, Frenkie de […]
This defense gives me a bigger migraine than trying to explain to Hawk fans that they aren’t that good. One play we look like a defense that won’t allow a single yard by ground or air, then we look away for two seconds, and our secondary has a coverage lapse that even Uncle Rico could […]
The New Orleans Saints face the Los Angeles Rams this Halloween week. The big story of the game for the Saints is the first career start at quarterback for rookie second-round pick Tyler Shough, and deservedly so, but the Saints’ futility against the Rams in Los Angeles looms even larger. The Saints could certainly call the “Rams […]
8-0, you are oh so sweet. Last week, we inched closer to Charlotte with a convincing win over a struggling Syracuse team. There is not much time to celebrate, however, because we head back on the road to play the NC State Wolfpack. Quarterback CJ Bailey gave us trouble last year, as he is a […]
“I wanted to write you a glad song, but I didn’t have time, so I wrote you a sad one” It’s always a risk to start writing with someone else’s quote, since that person probably said it better than you ever could. Still, Franz Nicolay’s bitter parody of Mark Twain may be the best way […]
How acquired The Atlanta Braves top international signing in January 2023 was Luis Guanipa out of Venezuela. Guanipa ranked as the #34 prospect according to Pipeline and commanded a $2.5M signing bonus. Guanipa was seen as a bit of a late bloomer for an international signee, as he started to improve at the plate in […]
