With five teams ranked in the AP preseason poll, the ACC is loading up for an ever-competitive season. Familiar faces are expected to lead the conference, but a summer of transfer portal chaos leaves us with some pressing questions before the season tips off: Can No. 7 Duke finally get over the hump? Women’s college […]
All hail the King! 1982 – Today marks the 43rd anniversary since Bernard King became the King of New York. In a blockbuster trade with the Golden State Warriors, the Knicks sent Michael Ray Richardson and a 1984 fifth-round pick to the Warriors for Bernard King. The move reignited King’s career and lit up Madison […]

The 2025 Mariners are no more. I already wrote my season recap. I intentionally published it before the playoffs to feel like I could say something objective without the benefit of hindsight. The playoffs are random, if you hadn’t heard. They’re a short series of coin flips. The best player in MLB can lose. The […]
A decade ago, I was writing for Liberty Ballers as an idealistic college student who knew in his heart of hearts that the Sixers would be a championship team quite soon. Well, a decade later, I am a grouch in his 30s, writing here once again, and the Sixers still have not advanced beyond the […]

Subverting expectations To quote J.A. Adande from his panel at this week’s Journalism 202 Lecture, “Every game is a chapter in the story of the season.” So far, it has been hard to fit this chapter in with the rest of Northwestern’s 2025 football story. Think about where NU was last Wednesday, riding the high […]

The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers will be relatively unrecognizable when they face off on Sunday Night Football this week. Neither team will be wearing their classic uniforms, which, to me, is a little disappointing in a matchup between two massive brands. The Packers will be wearing their all white “Winter Warning” uniforms, which […]
BOSTON — Jaylen Brown surprised me most this training camp. Nothing that happened on the floor changed my view on how this season will play out for him, Brown as likely as anyone to ride the highs-and-lows of suffering the losses and major injury that these Celtics did. But his first statement upon arrival Media […]

On Wednesday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced their latest group of former NFL players who have been confirmed to move on in their voting process for next year’s class. This year, there are four former Bolts still in the running to be a member of the Class of 2026. For the first time, […]
After going undefeated in the preseason for the just the third time in team history — the other two were 1977-78, when George Gervin finished 2nd in MVP voting and first in scoring, and 1997-98: Tim Duncan’s rookie year when they made an NBA-record 36-win improvement — the San Antonio Spurs look primed to make […]
Offense Struggles to Score It was a lost week for the men’s soccer team as they dropped two 2-0 decisions, the first on the road against No. 8 Maryland and the second during homecoming weekend against the No. 21 Huskies. The Scarlet Knights entered the week riding high, ranked No. 13 in the nation, but […]

When we last heard about Detroit Lions’ 2025 sixth-round pick Ahmed Hassanein, the former Boise State defensive end had suffered a pectoral injury, resulting in the team waiving him with an injury settlement. Lions coach Dan Campbell said Hassanein was going to miss “a while” with the injury, although it was still a surprise to […]
52 modern era NFL players advanced to the next stage of the voting process for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s class of 2026, four of whom are former Pittsburgh Steelers. Wide receiver Hines Ward continues his journey to a hopeful induction. This marks the 10th time he has chased an induction, and he has […]
The ‘Cats might be a win or two away from getting serious consideration for the AP Top 25 for the first time since 2023. Four straight wins, including a shutout of Purdue and a victory over the preseason No. 2 in Penn State, have given NU some much-needed momentum following a lackluster 1-2 start to […]
In 2020, Electronic Arts extended its exclusive-rights deal with the NFL for the Madden video game series. The extension was through 2026. Much like an NFL contract, however, an in-season extension was expected for this year. Insider Gaming reported back in July that a deal was in the works that included EA actually looking to […]
Most of the articles written on Brew Crew Ball recently have focused on the Brewers’ performance in the playoffs, with good reason. This is going to be different. As BCB’s resident minor league writer, I feel a duty — nay, an obligation — to remind you just how stacked the Brewers’ farm system is. While […]
As if the Portland Trail Blazers’ 2025 offseason couldn’t contain more action and excitement, the franchise gave fans one more rush before the new season: The Blazers locked down guard Shaedon Sharpe to a four-year, $90 million contract extension on the same day they signed forward Toumani Camara to a four-year, $82 million extension. On […]
One of the big questions for the Los Angeles Rams heading into the 2025 season was how much their defense would improve from year one to year two under defensive coordinator Chris Shula. Between the growth of young players like Jared Verse, Braden Fiske, and Kam Kinchens, as well as a greater overall comfort level, […]
Although the fresh playoff moments for the Chicago Cubs wrapped up in this year’s National League Division Series, we can still look back and enjoy the best of the best moments that came before.
For example, here’s one of the absolute best: on this day in 2016, the Cubs beat the Dodgers to win the 2016 National League Championship Series and take their first pennant in 71 years. They were off to the World Series, where I seem to recall some good things happened.
Enjoy the highlights ...
Ohio State’s resume at the midseason mark is one that invites an uncomfortable question for every contender: Who exactly can beat this team? The Buckeyes sit unbeaten, have a top-ranked defense that routinely removes opponents’ margin for error, and a passing game led by Julian Sayin that has taken a clear leap into elite territory. […]
