Save for one extremely shaky Brock Purdy performance in a game in which they still prevailed, the 49ers have excelled on the primetime stage. Sunday’s meeting with the Chicago Bears is a different animal, however, as it holds the highest stakes of any game they have played so far this campaign. If the 49ers prevail […]

In a game the Green Bay Packers want to forget, their biggest weakness was exposed in a loss to the Baltimore Ravens that ended their hopes of an NFC North title. A 41-24 loss to the Ravens officially gave the Chicago Bears their first divisional title, but it also gave the rest of the NFC […]
For the first time in seven years, the Chicago Bears are the NFC North champions. The Bears clinched first place in the division after the Packers’ 41-24 loss to the Ravens on Saturday night. Heading into their Week 17 matchup against the 49ers, Chicago has a 2.5-game lead for first place in the NFC North. […]
The Blackhawks didn’t skate until they warmed up on the ice in Dallas since losing to the Flyers. And they were facing one of the best teams in the league. So… yeah. Odds weren’t in their favor. But they played a really good first period. Chicago took the lead 3:20 into the first period and I’m not sure Arvid Söderblom ever saw the shot that tied the game almost eight minutes later. The Hawks had an 8-4 advantage in scoring chances and 3-2 advantage in high danger chances at 5-on-5 thru 20 min...
Giannis Antetokounmpo came back from an eight-game absence with a calf strain, helping the Milwaukee Bucks snap the Chicago Bulls’ five-game win streak at the United Center. The Greek Freak had 29 while Ryan Rollins stepped up in key moments to finish with 20. No Bull had more than Nikola Vucevic and Coby White, each […]

The Chicago Bulls are the hottest team in the NBA. That’s a combination of words I never thought I’d put together after their recent seven-game losing streak — which came right on the heels of a five-game skid. Yet here we are. The Bulls are tied for the longest win streak in the league, and yes, I’m counting it that way because the Spurs did lose to the New York Knicks in the NBA Cup final, whether that officially hits the record books or not. Tonight, Chicago faces their division r...
The White Sox want you to think things are changing at 35th and Shields. After signing Munetaka Murakami, it was starting to look like you could have faith that this organization was starting to turn the corner. This is still the White Sox, an organization that is the epitome of one step forward, two steps […]

Two very good football teams meet up on Sunday Night Football as the (11-4) Chicago Bears travel West to play the (11-4) San Francisco 49ers. Last season, these two teams combined for 11 wins and were each last in their respective divisions. The Bears are looking for their third straight win, while the ‘Niners are […]

This Cubs offseason appears to be, at least so far, “Sign All The Relievers Except The Big-Name Ones” year for Jed Hoyer. Next up: Hunter Harvey was the Orioles’ first-round pick (22nd overall) in 2013 out of high school in North Carolina and eventually wound up with the Nationals, where he had a couple of […]
There’s a surprise signing, filling up our cups between Christmas and New Year. It’s a pretty significant – and risky – upside play in the Chicago Cubs’ bullpen, and this time it’s not a soft-tossing 2025 Rangers reliever ! Mold broken! The Cubs are reportedly adding hard-throwing righty Hunter Harvey: Reliever Hunter Harvey and the Cubs are in agreement on a deal, pending physical, league sources tell me and @sahadevsharma . — Will Sammon (@WillSammon) December 27, 2025 T...
There is some good news and some bad news regarding the latest updates to the Chicago Bears injury report ahead of the team’s game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football. The bad news is that starting right tackle Darnell Wright is a late addition to the injury report and is listed as questionable to play on Sunday because of an illness. Five other Bears players dealt with an illness this week that limited their practice participation. One player, Nick McCloud, did not p...
The Blackhawks flew to Dallas this morning after the NHL’s Christmas break. They did not fly early enough to take a morning skate; they’ll just jump on the ice and go tonight against a Stars team that has the second-best record in the NHL. We won’t know if Nick Foligno is coming back off IR or if there are any lineup changes until head coach Jeff Blashill addresses the media for the first time after the break at 5:30. I’m going with the same lineup they had against Philly before the break...
The San Francisco 49ers are inching closer towards the playoffs, having already clinched a postseason berth with two weeks to go. Next up on the docket is the Chicago Bears at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday Night Football. A win would set up a potential Week 18 matchup for the NFC West division title and the […]
The Blackhawks head to Dallas on Saturday to take on one of the league’s top teams in the Stars with hopes of snapping a brutal six-game losing streak. The Stars have spent most of the 2025–26 season parked firmly among the NHL’s heavyweights, trailing only the Colorado Avalanche in the league with a .737 points percentage and a 7-2-1 record in their last 10 games. However, their success hasn’t been really driven by territorial dominance: at 5-on-5, Dallas ranks 31st in shot attempt share...
The trick-or-treat Chicago Bulls delivered a post-Christmas miracle late Friday night. Chicago used a 13-2 closing run to pull away at home against the Philadelphia 76ers and secure their fifth straight victory, 109-102 . The Bulls had trailed by as many as 11 points. It marked their second five-game win streak of the season and returned Chicago to a .500 record on the year (15-15). The Bulls ended the night on a 10-0 kick, keyed by this emphatic Jalen Smith flush over an exhausted-l...
I’m excited to try pho for the first time ever tonight. But first, I’ve gotta get through this set of Bears Bullets in one piece. Before the 2025 NFL Trade Deadline, Raiders star pass rusher Maxx Crosby made it clear (via NFL on FOX insider Jay Glazer) that he didn’t want to leave Las Vegas. He was just months removed from signing a noteworthy extension and was a clear building block for a team that didn’t have much else going for it. Fast forward to December and we have Jay Glazer hint...
Pending unrestricted free agent Connor Murphy has been a good foot soldier for the Chicago Blackhawks for 8 1/2 years now, logging an average of close to 20 minutes of ice time over the course of his time there. The two-way defenseman is a physical, veteran presence, always good for 100+ hits and blocked shots per season. Insider Chris Johnston writes in The Athletic, with Murphy being a legitimate trade candidate at the upcoming deadline, " The Blackhawks could certainly do right by Mur...
The year 2025 is coming to a close in less than a week. And yesterday’s Washington Wizards win got me thinking for a second because they beat the Toronto Raptors soundly, 138-117 with Kyshawn George having a big night. Back on Jan. 1, 2025, the Washington Wizards hosted the Chicago Bulls and won, 125-107. It […]
