The Vancouver Canucks are open for business. GM Patrik Allvin has told teams around the league the Canucks are willing to work with just about every team, and will listen to just about anyone off their roster. This includes captain Quinn Hughes, who the team knows is leaving by the time he hits free agency in two summers. President Jim Rutherford shockingly admitted that Hughes wants to eventually play with his brothers in an exit press conference to end last season, and now, with just one yea...
Good morning, ‘Dawgs! Only a handful of teams in college football find themselves playing for a conference championship this weekend. And your Georgia Bulldogs are one of them.

Good morning! It can be hard to return to work after an extended break. So do yourself a favor this morning and ease into things.

Plus, Monday is December 1st! If you think of the season as November/December/January/February and March is the postseason, we’re at the one-quarter […]
Dave Canales finally committed to the run against a superior opponent. Bryce Young delivered a precise-when-it-mattered and mistake-free game. This was the game we hoped for against the San Francisco 49ers and, instead, it showed up a week late and right on time as the Panthers head into their much needed bye week. For all […]
PHILADELPHIA – Merrimack hadn’t held an opponent under a point per possession through its first eight games of the season.

While it may seem a bit odd, December typically is one of the most exciting months on the baseball calendar. The Winter Meetings is typically the peak of off-season activity, and we are just a week away from the 2025 MLB Winter Meetings starting. This does not mean that moves will stop until then, but […]
Before we move forward, before the next steps, before the rumors and the portal and the pressure of what comes next, there is something that deserves to be said clearly and respectfully. Thank you, Mark Stoops. When Mark Stoops arrived, Kentucky football was in the gutter. I was young, and I honestly did not know […]

This is a low point for the Falcons. Losing to this New York Jets team that just went on a fire sale feels like the final straw for the Terry Fontenot-Raheem Morris era. If it is, then they picked the perfect note to leave on. There is no better encapsulation of why the Falcons need […]

I’m not a huge college football fan. I like watching the playoffs, the bowls, but following a team for a whole season is just something this local college boy never really did. So all of this news about Lane Kiffin just makes me sad for the state of athletics at the collegiate level. Do I […]
Happy Monday, Camden Chatters, and welcome to December! The Orioles made a splash over the holiday weekend by signing a new closer.

The New England Patriots did not exactly enjoy a weekend off, but they were able to watch the action unfold from afar before their Monday night matchup with the New York Giants. What they saw was the race for the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff picture remaining highly contested: thanks to a 27-26 […]
My family and I attended the debacle in Lincoln on Friday. There were 10 of us trying to ignore the obnoxious Iowa fans in our section (unsuccessfully) while we froze and watched an increasingly embarrassing spectacle. If anything has sealed the ranchhand’s ambivalence toward Husker football, this game was it. The ranchhands are between 19 […]
