Latest blog entries from New York teams across every league
Just hours before the trade deadline, Chris Ballard and the Indianapolis Colts made a blockbuster trade for Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner, star cornerback of the New York Jets. Gardner, just 25 and already one of the league’s premier cover men, brings elite length, physicality at the line, and the kind of confidence that shrinks throwing windows […]
Now you see him, now you don’t? The Bruins won their fourth game in a row last night, beating the Islanders 4-3 in a shootout. It was a pretty even, back-and-forth game: 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, etc. It was Marat Khusnutdinov who emerged as the hero for the Bruins, first tying the game with under […]
The Cleveland Browns were far more inactive than many expected them to be as the 2025 NFL trade deadline passed. Unlike the New York Jets, who they face in Week 10, the Browns made a small move at the deadline after making multiple moves earlier in the season. Cleveland heads into Week 10 of the […]
We’re getting into the quietest time of the baseball year, right after all of the action dies down and before any free agency frenzies break out. Minor news is rolling out, mainly related to option decisions like the one Cody Bellinger made to opt-out of the last year of his deal as expected. There will […]

The Athletic | Ian O’Connor: ($) O’Connor talks with Brian Cashman about the one word that’s anathema to all front offices, particularly the Yankees: “rebuild.” Understandably, given his team just tied for the most wins in the AL, the GM dismisses the notion of a tear-down out of hand. “There’s no indication that is something […]

Pyotr Kochetkov made his season debut a huge success as he earned a 25 save shutout while the Carolina Hurricanes defeated the New York Rangers, 3-0 on Tuesday night at MSG. Kochetkov had been getting over an injury since the start of the season but he certainly looked healthy enough during this performance. The Rangers […]
The Rangers’ home struggles continue as they’re shut out by Carolina despite a strong start and a chance to extend their win streak.
In his recap/warning to Blue Jays fans following their quasi-singularly traumatic World Series Game 7 experience, Defector’s Barry Petchesky, referencing the Yankees loss against the Diamondbacks in 2001, put it thusly: So let’s have a little heart-to-heart chat, you, the grieving and traumatized Jays fan, me, a fan who was on the wrong side of what […]
I wrote an article in 2023 that I knew would be received mostly poorly. I did it anyway because I thought the thesis was interesting and worth talking about. At the time, the comments were not all rosy. Here are some examples: So what was that article? Well, I proposed that the Jets should consider […]
Will the next time we see Nolan Traore, Ben Saraf and Danny Wolf in a Nets uniform be Friday night at Nassau Coliseum … donning the Long Island Nets red, white and blue? Brooklyn assigned the three first round picks to its G League affiliate Tuesday, filling the Long Island roster. Although the Brooklyn Nets […]

This game between the Pacers and Nets will hap...
The Dallas Cowboys made two moves before Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline and acquired Logan Wilson from the Cincinnati Bengals as well as Quinnen Williams from the New York Jets. They certainly improved the defense. Things have been a bit wonky for the Cowboys from an NFL draft perspective ever since trading away Micah Parsons as […]

College basketball tipped off this week, and it couldn’t have come any sooner for Brooklyn Nets fans. That has nothing to do with their appreciation for Gus Johnson’s voice nor the nostalgic “back to school” vibes which the collegiate game brings. It has everything to do who they are, where they’re at, and where they […]

In our weekly odds post on Monday, we noted that the Cleveland Browns were 1.5 point underdogs against the 1-7 New York Jets. While it’s embarrassing on one hand to be underdogs to a team that just barely escaped with their first win before the bye week, the spread was understandable due to the Browns’ […]
While the New York Jets were busy imploding their roster by dealing away their two young, cornerstone defensive pieces, the Cleveland Browns mostly sat on their hands with just one move, trading away DE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka in an exchange of draft picks. The Browns now have 18 NFL draft selections in the next two NFL […]
The Chicago Bulls are sure hoping that Ayo Dosunmu gets the green light tonight. After exceeding expectations with a strong 5-0 start, the Bulls suffered their first loss of the season at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. Falling on the road to a Knicks team that is fresh off an Eastern Conference Finals appearance isn’t reason enough for this young and frisky group to hang their heads. Believe it or not, they weren’t going to go 82-0. With that said, a loss is a loss. The Bulls now h...
The Cleveland Browns were far more inactive as the 2025 NFL trade deadline passed than many expected. There have been rumblings that the team tried to get the New York Jets to talk about a trade of WR Garrett Wilson, but this week’s opponent was focused on trading away defenders instead. The Browns made one […]

A little over a year ago, the Minnesota Timberwolves and New York Knicks made a seismic trade that sent the Timberwolves’ longtime franchise player, Karl-Anthony Towns, away in exchange for Julius Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, and a first-round pick that eventually became Joan Beringer. As it stands now, the trade appears to have paid off for […]
The Mets continue their very early rebuilding of the bullpen by signing 2025 Met Brandon Waddell to a one-year, major league contract. The financial details have not been disclosed at this time. Waddell was up and down from Triple-A Syracuse this season, making 11 appearances (one start) for the major league club and 19 appearances […]
