Here at Buffalo Rumblings, it’s a day of mourning for Buffalo Bills fans. The stench of a brutal 33-30 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos continues to waft down from up high in Colorado. In perhaps his most chaotic postseason performance, quarterback Josh Allen committed four turnovers yet still managed to put his team in […]
Ozzy Trapilo’s season-ending patellar tendon injury couldn’t have come at a worse time for the Chicago Bears and their offensive line. The rookie’s solid play had locked down a troublesome position for the Bears opposite All-Pro tackle Darnell Wright, and his loss last weekend against the Green Bay Packers puts Chicago in a rough spot […]

Green Bay Packers fans saw their team bomb out of the playoffs last Saturday, giving up 25 fourth-quarter points to the Chicago Bears in a brutal 31-27 loss. With that result, the Bears advanced to this weekend’s Divisional Playoffs, where they face a Los Angeles Rams team that is, in the eyes of many NFL […]
The Blackhawks held a fantastic celebration of the three Stanley Cup champions on Saturday night. The game was disappointing, but the pregame was exceptional. The collection of former players who were part of the 2010, 2013 and 2015 championship Blackhawks rosters who were able to attend was impressive. And the moment Pat Foley invited them to raise the Cup on home ice one more time was stirring. Appropriately, it was Brent Seabrook who raised it above his head. Seabrook was the quiet lea...
My friend Adam posted this and it immediately got me hyped for today’s Bears-Rams NFC Divisional Round game: Who needs coffee when that exists? The vibes are excellent around town. I’m loving every head nod I exchange with someone wearing Bears gear. It has been fun to talk football with random people in bars, on L-train platforms, in a ride share after a late night, and here online. This city gets electric when Chicago’s football team is in the playoffs. And I hope everyo...
Happy Sunday, Bulls fans! We’ve got a game tonight… other than the Bears. How about an immediate Chicago vs. Brooklyn rematch? After the Bulls failed to complete the comeback on Friday, they get a third crack at the Nets. At this point, it might not even be in the Bulls’ best interest to win this one, but as they keep hovering just under .500, you already know what’s coming. They’ll find a way to win, pull themselves right back to the middle, and keep the cycle alive. Let’s jump into...
Last weekend, the Cubs and Bears came together to provide Chicago with one of the most memorable and consequential sports nights for this city in a long time. One week and one day later, and it’s all on the Bears. I am nervous. I am excited. And I am ready to Bear Down. You’ve got a must-read of the day , today, from Patrick Mooney, who got the inside scoop on how the deal with Alex Bregman came together last weekend during the Bears game. From the sound of it, Bregman was VERY clo...
Let’s do it again. The Chicago Bulls almost pulled off an improbable comeback, but the Brooklyn Nets escaped with a 112-109 win on Friday night. The W snapped their five game losing streak. Where to follow the game YES Network on TV. WFAN on radio. Gotham Sports on streaming. Amazingly, this game will tip off […]
Hello, Chicago Bears Fans! The Bears are into the divisional round after their amazing comeback victory over the Packers in the Wild Card game. The Bears did suffer some injuries in that game, however, with Ozzy Trapilo and TJ Edwards out for the season. There are rumors the Bears may push Joe Thuney out to […]
In the past, the Cubs Convention used to have a session with President of Business Operations Crane Kenney. That, along with a session with Executive Chairman Tom Ricketts, have been eliminated from the convention agenda. Kenney did have a wide-ranging conversation with Meghan Montemurro of the Tribune, and in her article she wrote that the […]
After a massive leap from the bottom of the poll to a tie for runner-up, it seemed like either catcher Landon Hodge or righthander Reudis Diaz was poised to win the next Vote. Indeed, on his 21st ballot, Hodge prevailed, with 12 of 62 (19%) votes: Hodge’s win was not decisive, however, as his 19.35% […]
The Blackhawks los t again last night. The Bruins came in playing really well, and controlled most of the game even though the Hawks took a 2-0 lead in the first period. Where some of the Blackhawks’ problems have come in the last two games has been trying to do much. Jason Dickinson talked about maybe trying to do one thing too many too often. And his head coach agree that keeping things simple has worked — and the Hawks got away from that last night. “When you’re pressing instead of tak...
Another day of NFL playoffs, and another day of exciting football games. The Buffalo Bills suffered another heartbreaking postseason loss in overtime to the Denver Broncos in a controversial finish that will likely lead to days of debating about officiating. I almost made this Question of the Day about the enforcement of pass interference, but […]
1.) 2006 Bears vs. Seahawks: The Goulden leg sends us to the NFC Championship for the first time since 1985 An old adversary came to town on January 14th, 2007. Mike Holmgren, the former head coach of the Green Bay Packers of the 90’s who combined with Brett Favre to torment the Bears so, came […]
Matt Shaw says he has spent a good deal of time in the outfield in college and he’s up for the challenge of being a supersub. I’m not going to discourage him. Nico Hoerner opined that it was a good thing to have a quality player as a sub, and that time off isn’t a […]
