Piers Morgan has said Bruno Fernandes had a subpar performance compared to Cristiano Ronaldo in Portugal’s 2026 FIFA World Cup opener against DR Congo.
The Athletic’s Chris Waugh reported on Monday that Newcastle United’s board has set realistic expectations for the 2025–26 season, emphasizing European — not Champions League — qualification as the benchmark rather than demanding another top-four finish. Waugh said the club’s executive team has not made public declarations this year, unlike in 2024–25 when then-CEO Darren […]
After a two-game stretch where the Buffalo Bills looked dismal, uninspired and simply not ready to play, they took their much-needed bye week and it seemed to have helped. Although the passing game still has its issues, especially with receivers getting open, James Cook and the defense (with Michael Hoecht and Larry Ogunjobi making their […]
It’s an exciting time to be a UCLA women’s basketball fan. The Bruins are coming off a program-record 34 wins in their first season in the Big Ten, going 16-2 in conference play and winning the Big Ten Tournament, and they advanced all the way to the Final Four in the NCAA Tournament for the […]
So not only did the Chicago Bulls win their home opener for the first time since 2021-22, but they have started the year 2-0 for the first time since that same season. PLAYOFFS HERE WE COME! Box Score & Players Grades: Bulls 110, Magic 98 – October 25, 2025 I do not advise anyone to drastically change their views of this team after two games. As I said after Game 1, we are going to need a multi-week sample size before re-evaluating where the organization stands and wh...
Well since LSU’s football season is over for all intents and purposes, let’s focus on a team that actually has won at the highest level. The college basketball season is on the horizon, and when LSU takes the court for an official game (November 4 against Houston Baptist) they will open the 2025-26 campaign as […]
The Chicago Bears will try to do something that they haven’t done since Matt Nagy was on the sideline, and that’s win five games in a row. In his first year as Chicago head coach (2018), Nagy’s Bears had a five-game stretch of wins en route to a 12-4 record and an NFC North title. […]
Week 8 is here, and the early slate of games are ready to kickoff while we wait for the New Orleans Saints to kick off against Tampa Bay along with the late slate of games. Here is today’s early slate: Miami at Atlanta Chicago at Baltimore Buffalo at Carolina New York Jets at Cincinnati San […]
In absolutely terrible news, the Falcons announced on Sunday with the release of the inactive players list that LB Divine Deablo has been placed on injured reserve with the forearm injury he suffered in Atlanta’s Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. That loss was frustrating, but for me, the most upsetting part was […]
The San Francisco 49ers will look to begin their second winning streak of the season. After winning the first three games of the season, San Francisco has rotated wins and losses since Week 4. Coincidentally, that was also the last time we saw Brock Purdy. If recent history tells us anything, this might be a […]
The Cleveland Browns face off with the New England Patriots in Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season. A game that could impact the rest of the season for the Browns holds special meaning for many within the organization, media covering the team, and fans of the orange and brown. One year ago, “The Voice […]

The Eagles play the Giants in Week 8, and will take the field without A.J. Brown, who was ruled out for a hamstring injury. The wide receiver didn’t practice three days in a row, and despite Nick Sirianni saying Brown is a guy who could play without any practice during the week, ultimately, they decided […]
As Kermit the Frog once famously sang, it’s not easy being green. And that saying was put to the test today in Sassuolo in a literal battle of the greens. Clad in their green and white third kit, Roma faced the Nervoderi on the road in what is becoming an all-too-familiar feeling in these early […]
A full slate of early Sunday games. Enjoy! This is an open thread for game chat.
The Miami Hurricanes won 42-7 on Saturday night over the Stanford Cardinal at Hard Rock Stadium. The spread varied anywhere from 31ish down to 28.5. It was a win and a cover for the Hurricanes. But, for me, the old motto of “good teams win, great teams cover” doesn’t quite hit home for me after […]
The Buffalo Bills and the Carolina Panthers are set to face off in an important game for both squads. The Bills enter play on a two-game losing streak, as they dropped consecutive contests to the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons before their bye week. The Panthers, meanwhile, are riding a three-game winning streak after […]

Yeeesh. Listen, I’ll gladly take the W and nod along with the “found a way to win it” crowd. But this game did very little to assuage the nerves I wrote about after the Mizzou win. These close games feel unsustainable (though, I also said that a few weeks, and a few wins, ago). I’ll […]
It was late heartbreak for the Wildcats on Friday, as an 87th minute penalty from Mitar Mitrovic gave No. 13 Michigan a 2-1 come-from-behind victory. The win leaves Northwestern in a tie for last place in the Big Ten standings. The ’Cats sit on only five points after seven games. Meanwhile, Michigan’s victory propels it […]
