Let’s talk 2026 Texas Rangers payroll. We don’t know how much the Rangers payroll is going to be in 2026. It appears likely that it will be less than it was in 2025, since part of the reason given for Bruce Bochy’s decision not to return as manager in 2026 was the team’s “financial uncertainty” […]

The Carolina Panthers hit the road feeling their oats after back to back home wins and three wins in four contests. They’ve averaged 29 points per game in those three wins, and the offense has looked rather potent. However, all three of the wins have come at home. Road games have been an entirely different […]

In terms of on-ice results it is pretty fair to say that preseason expectations for the 2025-26 Pittsburgh Penguins were as low as they have been in two decades. I do not know of anybody, nor did I see anybody, anticipating a playoff team or any sort of a contender. Everybody knows the deal here. […]

Hello CSR! Welcome to your defensive preview, as the Panthers travel to face the New York Jets in what should be a very winnable game this week.

The news is a bit surprising because Brogdon only played nine NBA seasons. And he signed with New York after playing for the Washington Wizards in 2024-25 where he averaged 12.7 points […]

That's Wild No one truly expected Minnesota Wild rookie Zeev Buium to score a boatload of points in his first ever regular season games. Especially after he somewhat faltered during his debut in the playoffs last season, Buium was largely seen as someone who might need a few weeks to get the fe...

The Minnesota Wild were always going to be walking on a high wire this season. They're a playoff-caliber team laden with veterans who've been in the fold for a half-decade or more.
