Joe Morgan goes 6-for-6 at the plate

Joe Morgan goes 6-for-6 at the plate kkundahl Wed, 2026-07-08 10:54 A record-tying performance during his first full season proved “Little Joe” could produce in big ways. Abbey Dempsey Joe Morgan’s words during his 1990 Hall of Fame induction ring charmingly ironic for a man responsible for one of Houston’s most historic days at the plate. “For me, the game has never been about numbers,” Morgan said on Aug. 6, 1990, in Cooperstown. “It’s only been about winning.” Morga...

Ranking our favorite Simpsons ‘Treehouse of Horror’ segments

Believe it or not, we are up to thirty-six Treehouse of Horror episodes from the Simpsons and have been going strong since Season Two back in 1990. If you aren’t familiar with the Treehouse of Horror series, it consists of three non-canonical shorts/segments that often spoof or parody a popular spooky story, film, or horror trope. Among the Simpsons community, it is a love it or hate it tradition that typically airs the Sunday before or after Halloween. As children of the 90’s, the Flyper...

The Ask For Rangers' Prospect Othmann Revealed

The New York Rangers are likely going to trade Brennan Othmann this year. He is a 22-year-old former first-round pick by the Rangers with just 26 games of NHL experience. He also didn't make the team out of training camp and has only been alright in the AHL. But the Rangers just called him up and slotted him into the third line after one assist in four games for the Hartford Wolf Pack. That move seems like much more of a showcase rather than a deserving call-up, as interest has risen for the R...

Carolina Hurricanes Will Be Big Game Hunting This Season

The Carolina Hurricanes are in a very unique spot that teams are rarely in. They are a true Stanley Cup contender, but have a lot of cap space to work with and make at least one big addition this season.

In the offseason, the Hurricanes went after Nikolaj Ehlers and landed him, but they still have over $8 million in cap space to utilize this seaso...
