With an important two points on the line in this divisional matchup between two under-performing rivals, this was a complete team effort on the road from the Maple Leafs. The Leafs’ bottom six did all of the team’s scoring (until the empty-netter by John Tavares), Toronto won over 70% of the faceoffs, won more than […]

Without exaggeration, tonight’s contest against the Missouri Tigers represented the most important game of the Micah Shrewsberry era to-date. Expectations are for the program to be in the hunt for an NCAA tournament bid, and for that to be a realistic possibility, there needs to be a quality non-conference win to point to. Beating Houston […]
When you’re a kid and you fall in love with a sport, it’s magical. As you get older though, other things push in and the sport, though always there, gets pushed back. Every so often though, you see a game that reminds you of why you fell for that sport in the first place. Duke […]

The 2024 ACC / SEC Challenge was a sad affair. The SEC won 14 of 16, Only Duke and Clemson won from the ACC. And coincidentally, 14 is the same number of SEC teams that made the NCAA tournament. The ACC made a strong statement on day 1. Let’s do that again! ACC / SEC […]
It wasn’t pretty by any means, but UNC got its act together late and made just enough plays to get a win at Rupp Arena for the first time since 2007. Derek Dixon hit a stepback three-pointer and a layup in the final minutes to give UNC the final advantage in a back-and-forth bout, surviving […]
Before we get too far into this, we will admit we did not watch tonight’s game. Thanks to a combination of factors including, but not limited to, a rough day at the bill-paying job, wonky internet, and the fact that we have no couch, we’re not going to watch the game either. So here are some recaps of the 2-1 loss from folks that we assume did watch the game. Bo Horvat and old friend Anthony Duclair had the tallies for the Islanders while Dominic James scored for the Lightning.

There are nights when the shots aren’t going to fall. That’s basketball. Then there was Tuesday night in Lexington, where the Kentucky Wildcats shot an abysmal 1-of-13 from three-point range in a 67-64 loss to the North Carolina Tar Heels.

Chelsea made it seven unbeaten, in all competitions, with a stellar effort against league-leaders Arsenal on Sunday, battling to a 1-1 draw despite playing over an hour with just ten, so surely a game against one of the worst teams in the league will pose less of a challenge. Of course, that’s not how it […]

The Atlanta Braves made a minor move (literally) on Tuesday morning, signing left-hander Danny Young to a one-year, split deal. The 31-year-old was previously with the New York Mets, who recently outrighted him, giving Atlanta the opportunity to pick him up. He did undergo Tommy John surgery in May, so he won’t be on the […]
