A new report claims the Portland Trail Blazers have “serious interest” in a Jaylen Brown trade. However, can they make […]
We are having such an interesting time in the world of fantasy and football. Who would’ve thought it would be none other than Harry Maguire, once considered a ‘meme’, to clutch it against arch-rivals Liverpool, and that too at Anfield? As a United fan, it’s a great feeling after a long time. FPL GW9 Team […]
I am not surprised that Atlético de Madrid lost at Arsenal on Tuesday night in the UEFA Champions League. I’m not even surprised that the defeat came by multiple goals. No, the manner of Atlético’s 4-0 defeat at Arsenal just leaves me feeling jaded. Despite a positive start from a tactical point of view, Atleti […]

The demand for centers around the NHL continues to reach a boiling point, with injuries and other situations leaving many teams in the lurch. Second-line centers are very hard to come by, but that's what seemingly everyone's looking for. One name that's been on the rumor mill once again lately is the Boston Bruins ' Casey Mittelstadt. Insider Frank Seravalli wondered about the demand for him. The player was a healthy scratch over the weekend, and now is playing on the wing. The Col...
On Monday night the Seattle Seahawks dispatched the Houston Texans 27-19 in a game that did not feel anywhere near as close as the final score.

Pick’em Competition […]
Implementing a new starter to a roster is always a challenge. That’s a very important role and that person typically plays a lot with your most important players. So it’s no surprise that in DeAndre Ayton’s first regular season start with the Lakers, things didn’t go as smoothly as possible. Not only did the Lakers […]
The mood in Baltimore was decidedly dour on Monday when Lamar Jackson missed the Ravens’ first practice of the week. Reports since have indicated that he may not play in Week 8 as the team hoped.

The Buffalo Bills are struggling to field a dominant passing game, which is an uncomfortable thing to say about a unit led by quarterback Josh Allen. It’s also true, and something needs to change. Short of making a ground-shaking trade or finding a diamond-in-the-rough midseason free agent, it means that offensive coordinator Joe Brady must […]
