Bears–Vikings Storylines: Austin Booker’s Emergence, Keeping the Pressure on McCarthy, More

Back in Week 1, the Bears let one slip away. They were the better team for most of the afternoon against the Vikings, but they couldn’t land the knockout punch — and quarterback J.J. McCarthy made them pay. Two months later, the rematch in Minneapolis offers Chicago a chance to show just how far it’s come. The Bears are 6-3, winners of four straight, and finally playing the brand of football Ben Johnson envisioned when he took over. The Vikings, meanwhile, are reeling, with McCarthy strug...

Could the Lakers trade for Anthony Davis again?

Nine months after trading Luka Dončić to the Lakers in perhaps the most ridiculed deal in NBA history, Nico Harrison is now unemployed. The Dallas Mavericks parted ways with him on Tuesday after leaks began springing up about his job security in recent days. The Mavericks are now expected to work with Anthony Davis and […]

Caleb Williams Ready for Another Chess Match with Brian Flores’ Defense

Caleb Williams still remembers how the Bears’ season against the Minnesota Vikings started with a surprise. Williams expected Brian Flores’ trademark blitz-heavy attack. Instead, the Vikings defensive coordinator flipped the script. “That’s why they get paid the big bucks over there, too,” Williams said during his weekly media availability on Wednesday at Halas Hall. “You expect them to do something when you’re going into a game plan and into a game. It’s kudos to them for being able...

Sixers practice notebook: Barlow returns; PG out vs. Pistons

Well, it appears one reinforcement is on the way. No, Paul George will not make his season debut in Detroit Friday and Joel Embiid’s status is murky at best, but it looks like there’s a chance two-way forward Dominick Barlow could return to the lineup. The 22-year-old’s elbow laceration has healed enough to the point […]

The Anthony Davis and Chicago Bulls Chatter Keeps Growing Louder

The Anthony Davis snowball started rolling down the hill this week, and it’s finally become too big to ignore. With the Dallas Mavericks finally moving on from general manager Nico Harrison , the Dallas Mavericks’ future has become a hot topic around the league. Many are staring at their win-now roster, wondering how ownership or a new front office management will choose to proceed. Is the plan to continue to build upon Harrison’s shaky post-Luka Doncic plan that centered around Davis and...

Seahawks rookie Nick Emmanwori wins Rookie of the Week award

Nicholas Ovundah Eze Emmanwori. Impressive. First off, the Seattle Seahawks rookie safety really might be that dude. Physically speaking, 6ft 3in, built like a Commadores song; plus, he’s a RAS legend with an obviously advancing football acumen. Beefcake smash. Beefcake win awards, like the Rookie of the Week. Last Sunday’s inter-divisional battle against the Arizona […]

Worst Loss of the Year, A Brutally Honest Billy, A Different Kevin Huerter, and Other Bulls Bullets

Ah, the bad old days. Last night’s ugly 124-113 loss to the Detroit Pistons felt a lot like the Chicago Bulls of the past few years. Handed an opportunity to snap a losing streak against a heavily depleted opponent, they played easily their worst game of the 2025-26 season. After narrowly taking down the San Antonio Spurs with the same lineup, they played down to the makeshift Pistons rotation and faced a double-digit deficit for essentially the entire game. No Cade Cunningham or Jal...

So Long, Salieri

There is an unofficial system of checks and balances that exists in the liminal space between NBA players, coaches, executives, owners, and fans. As soon as any piece of that continuum is too far out of balance, order is restored—eventually. Often, it is a player forced to retire due to the inevitable entropy of skill, […]

Comments from the Other Side - Grizzlies 11/12/25

 Another team where they hate their own team, including their stars.  Maybe, especially their stars.  I like that they give some love to Payton Pritchard.  Calling the Celtics follicly challenged is hilarious.  It always amazes me how many fans hate their coach.  I cracked up at the coping mechanisms like holding their breath to get low oxygen to their brain and making the Pistons uniforms darker blue to pretend they were the Grizzlies.  My favorites are in b...

Kyrie Irving would kill the Rockets vibe

Karma. Juju. Vibes. This stuff matters. It’s hard to put a finger on it, but you know it matters. It’s got to feel right. If it feels wrong, follow that intuition. There are machinations at play that we don’t understand. Whatever your cosmic alignment, you’re naive to assume that cold, hard logic dictates everything. Kyrie […]
