Liverpool and Manchester United resume hostilities tomorrow. Or rather on field hostilities, as the hostilities for each other never really fades, regardless of fortunes on the pitch. United have been a bit of a bogey team for the Reds in recent seasons, including their last two visits to Anfield, both of which ended in disappointing […]
The first week of Arizona softball’s fall scrimmages consisted of the intrasquad Red-Blue game. One big takeaway from that was the need for defensive improvements, especially in the outfield. It appears that the Wildcats have addressed that issue during the past week. UA played a doubleheader against NAIA Benedictine University-Mesa and NJCAA Chandler-Gilbert Community College. […]

As so many of the other perceived contenders continue to falter (looking at you, Miami), the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes continue to be the best team in all of college football. While Ryan Day and his team are not focused on style points (and they certainly don’t need to be), they might end up […]

We may have witnessed – in Game 4 of the 2025 NLCS – the greatest performance in a major league baseball game by a single player. Shohei Ohtani won the MVP award (after being introduced as "the greatest baseball player on the planet") largely because of his unprecedented performance in the Dodgers' pennant-winning 5-1 victory on Friday night in Los Angeles, finishing off a dominating sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers (who had won all six of the games the two teams played d...
Chelsea were supposed to get healthier over the break, but that hasn’t exactly happened, at least not just yet, with a dozen players injured or otherwise unavailable for today’s game against Nottingham Forest. Some of that was expected, but some of that is certainly surprising, such as in midfield, where both Enzo Fernández and Moisés […]

LOS ANGELES – After five preseason games where they often played with various key rotation players out, on Friday, the Lakers finally had a game they took seriously.

Third Saturday is here, a time of joy fueled by hate, and this year we have the added incentive of last year’s fiasco to avenge. The Tide face yet another ranked opponent (its fourth in as many weeks), in a game that could prove determinative in who jets to Atlanta for the SEC crown. But, […]

Hmm Drama Back
Chelsea return from the international break with a Saturday lunchtime appointment at Nottingham Forest, which is, without a shadow of a doubt, the absolute worst time to have your first game back, especially playing away.

“It’s gut-wrenching and heart-breaking with losses like this,“ said a dejected but still hopeful Spartan head coach Ken Niumatalolo.
