Last night was a bit of a mixed bag for Alabama (3-2), as the 8th-ranked Crimson Tide showed a lot of fight in some areas, but fell completely flat in others in a 95-85 loss to the undefeated and twelfth-ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs on the opening day of the Players Era Festival. Labaron Philon put on […]

For some time now, retirement has felt like a very real possibility for LeBron James. He is currently in the last year of his Lakers contract and he didn’t ask for an extension, a break from the norm in his Lakers tenure. LeBron hasn’t flat-out stated he’d play next year or that this is his […]

The Carolina Panthers, on the verge of controlling the NFC South and their own playoff destiny through December, laid one of their biggest offensive eggs in years. It would be sadder if it didn’t feel like a Carolina primetime tradition that transcends regime and player. The ever lively comment section here on Cat Scratch Reader […]

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins won’t play tonight against the Dallas Stars. Kasperi Kapanen likely won’t either. And while missing two forwards against a quality opponent like Dallas isn’t ideal, there’s a case to be made that sitting them out is the right call. The Edmonton Oilers have been managing injuries and roster issues all season. Nugent-Hopkins has…

The last time we saw the Nittany Lions, they played a competitive game with Providence for about 30 minutes, then, after coming back from a 12-point deficit to make it a three point game, a pair of threes by the Friars opened it back up, and that was all she wrote. Now, the Lions look […]

What is it? Next season, umpires will continue to make ball-strike calls. A challenge system will be added. Pitchers, catchers, and batters will be allowed to challenge ball-strike calls. Each review will take about 15 seconds. In each game, each team will be allowed to challenge until they accumulate two upheld calls. Historical Perspective. In […]

The last weekend of May 2015 was unseasonably cool and rainy in Chicago. When the Cubs defeated the Royals at Wrigley Field May 31, the game-time temperature was just 47 degrees — that’s almost 30 degrees below the average high for the date, 75. And the game the day before had been rained out. The […]

I don’t even know where to start with this one. They say apathy is the worst emotion. When you stop being mad and just stop caring altogether. I think in this case, acceptance might be worse?

With one game left in November, the Chicago Bears are 8-3. That alone is worth celebrating. Don’t let the opponents’ records bring down the celebration. Don’t let the haters and box score-watchers bring you down. The Bears are in first place in the NFC North. The other teams aren’t because they haven’t won enough games. […]

Today is the 325th day since Christian Watson tore his ACL. I’ll be the first to admit I was among the doubters.

Although baseball is played at a high level in Taiwan ( the league is the Chinese Professional Baseball League, and you may recognize the term “Chinese Taipei,” used in international competitions due to the One China principle, because Taiwan’s official name is the Republic of China (ope, this parenthetical really got going) ), we don’t often see players making the leap from the CPBL straight to MLB. Instead, where there is player movement, it’s more likely to occur among the Asian countries, ...
