Latest blog entries from Boston teams across every league
It’s pitching preview time, ladies and gentlemen. Over the next several days, I’ll be writing 10,000 words or so about everyone you might see pitching for the Red Sox to start the season. I’ve put the team’s starting options into tiers because that’s how my brain works. Don’t think of them as rankings, but rather […]
The New England Patriots made a concerted effort to improve their wide receiver group in 2025, and they did. Veteran additions Stefon Diggs and Mack Hollins had a positive impact; rookie Kyle Williams had some flash plays; Kayshon Boutte took a step forward under a new coaching staff and in a new offensive system. And […]
Earlier this week, CBS released their post trade deadline NBA front office rankings. To nobody’s surprise, the Oklahoma City Thunder came in at first, but what was surprising to me is that only one other team (Boston Celtics) ranked above the Houston Rockets, which means that they’re the second-highest-ranked front office in the Western Conference, […]
The AL East looks like the best division in baseball headed into 2026, and that’s thanks in no small part to the arms race that took place over the winter between the division’s five clubs. The Blue Jays spent big money after winning the AL pennant, the Red Sox made major moves in free agency […]
K’Lavon Chaisson bet on himself and his new team last spring. Coming off the best season of his career, the former first-round draft pick joined the New England Patriots on a one-year, $3 million contract. The hopes for the partnership were clear from the get-go: help the Patriots get back on track in Year 1 […]
It certainly seems like Jayson Tatum is going to play basketball for the Boston Celtics at some point this season. There has been no date set yet for a return and Tatum has not said he is going to play this season. Yet, all the signs point to a Tatum return and it could be […]
It’s always worth pausing to appreciate the long arcs of player development, especially when the payoff arrives.Brandon Bussi left Western Michigan four years ago and signed with the Boston Bruins. After a handful of call-ups — none of them resulting in game action — he signed with the Florida Panthers on July 1, only to be claimed off waivers by the Carolina Hurricanes in October when he didn...
SAN FRANCISCO — When the Celtics face the Warriors on Thursday, Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis could both face the Celtics for the very first time since their respective tenures in Boston ended last summer. Porzingis is questionable to play against the Celtics as he continues to deal with a left Achilles tendon injury, while […]
Good evening! Hope it’s been a good day for you so far. Here’s a random clip:
Despite finishing the season strongly, the New England Patriots’ pass rush had its ups and downs throughout the 2025 campaign. It wasn’t due to K’Lavon Chaisson’s efforts, though: the first-year Patriot proved himself a disruptive player who finished the year setting multiple career marks and leading the team in several statistical categories. Needless to say, […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have one of the easiest schedules in the league after the All-Star break, but they have a tough stretch to start things off. They play five games in seven nights, and they take on the Oklahoma City Thunder, New York Knicks, Detroit Pistons (twice), and the Boston Celtics over the next two-and-a-half […]
Promoting Zak Kuhr to defensive coordinator was the logical choice in the aftermath of Terrell Williams moving to a different role on staff, but the New England Patriots still had to adhere to the NFL’s hiring processes. This meant satisfying the Rooney Rule by interviewing at least two minority or female candidates for every open […]
The St. Louis Blues continue to ask a high price for their multiple trade candidates, but that hasn't stopped teams from snooping around. According to James Murphy in rg.org, the Boston Bruins are 'actively targeting' defenseman Justin Faulk. Boston has remained aggressive in its search for a right-shot top-four defenseman after missing out on Rasmus Andersson, with GM Don Sweeney reportedly holding ongoing discussions with St. Louis about Faulk for the past month. “They have been talking for ...

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Josh Jobe was probably fortunate that he wasn’t ejected for his actions in the team’s dominant Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots, but he’s not so fortunate that he’ll escape any form of punishment. The NFL fined Jobe a combined $18,444 for two separate reasons on what’s otherwise the same […]
It’s been barely a week since the Seattle Seahawks hoisted the Lombardi Trophy for the second time in franchise history, thumping the overpowered and overmatched New England Patriots 29-13 to lay claim to bragging rights as the best team in the league for the next year. And now the franchise is officially for sale, with […]
Here’s another edition of our Round(Ball) Table, where the Posting & Toasting crew convene to share our speculations, worries, and frustrations. With the All-Star weekend now behind us, it’s time to speculate about the remainder of the season.

Cheers to commentor 1130PAR for suggesting this topic. Keep ‘em coming! We Celtics fanatics consume a ridiculous volume of Boston Celtics content and the large majority of the game coverage is fed to us by NBC Sports Boston as the Regional Sports Network for the team. So much so that they become like part of […]

Good morning! Yesterday was media day in Fort Myers. That’s always been one of the more low-key fun days of spring training, a chance for players to show some personality and for fans to see new faces in the home whites for the first time. But as the first photos from media day started circulating, […]
Heading in to 2025, we were generally very down on Ryan Clifford. The top-line results and power production were decent, sure, but striking out nearly 30% of the time with a very passive approach is not a good sign for long-term major league production. It seemed like Clifford’s hit tool would ultimately limit his ability […]
It took him 72 years, but Ernie Adams has finally landed his first ever head coaching job. The longtime New England Patriots research director will serve as interim HC at his alma mater, Phillips Andover, the Boston Globe reported. Adams was hired to replace previous head coach Trey Brown, under whom the Big Blue went […]
The New England Patriots have made a first addition to their coaching staff this offseason, and it comes in the form of a familiar face. B.J. Edmonds, who spent time with the team last summer as a coaching intern, was hired in an undisclosed role. Edmonds joining the Patriots comes only a month after he […]
It’s pitching preview time, ladies and gentlemen. Over the next several days, I’ll be writing 10,000 words or so about everyone you might see pitching for the Red Sox to start the season. We’ll start with the starters, because if we didn’t start with the starters, they wouldn’t be starters, and that doesn’t make any […]
