The Artemi Panarin Sweepstakes are over, as we saw earlier this week, as the New York Rangers traded the pending UFA to the Los Angeles Kings . He then immediately signed a two-year extension with LA with an $11M AAV. We learned that on the morning of the trade, Panarin informed the Rangers that the Kings were the only team he would accept a trade to. But that doesn't mean that others didn't try. In fact, with a rich extension being one of his prerequisites for accepting a trade, there were fo...

If there’s one thing the Lakers need to improve on this year, it’s shooting. LA makes only 34.9% of its 3-point attempts, ranking 21st in the NBA. One player won’t magically fix this team issue, but the Lakers believe they took a step in the right direction by trading Gabe Vincent for Luke Kennard. After […]
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been named the Associated Press NFL MVP following a 2025 season for the ages. While Stafford lacks the sort of dual-threat wizardry found in recent MVPs such as Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Patrick Mahomes, he does possess near-surgical accuracy and a tireless arm. Stafford earned a total […]

The NBA trade deadline went off the rails Tuesday, and it still hasn’t recovered. Jaren Jackson Jr. is now on the Jazz. Anthony Davis is now on the Wizards?! Darius Garland is on the Clippers?

Throughout NFL history, there have been great players who haven’t been able to reach their full potential on bad teams. While Calvin Johnson ended up as a Hall of Fame wide receiver, he didn’t have the team or individual success that he might have on another team. Running back Steven Jackson is one that Los […]
Heading into a baseball season, you have to think about depth, even when it’s not particularly pleasant to do so. Take the signing of veteran Dodgers’ catcher Austin Barnes for example.

Blaine already reported that the Los Angeles Rams will play the San Francisco 49ers in Australia for the 2026 season, and I wanted to own that I shared last year that L.A. would be taking on the Philadelphia Eagles in 2026 in another continent.

For the better part of three quarters of this game, it felt like the typical “first home game after a long road trip” performance from the Lakers.
