No need to get too in depth with this preview, right? We all know how these games go. The teams play pretty fun hockey until a hit or a post-whistle scrum goes a littl...
Saturday, September 28, 2019. Once a season, down in the Bowles Lot, the tailgate menu is centered around seafood. “The Bowles Boil.” With top-ranked Clemson coming to town for a 3:30 PM kickoff, it was the perfect game for the boil. It was going to be a hot one that day, and seafood and beer […]
Manchester City ended Newcastle United’s Carabao Cup title defense without giving the Alfa a chance. Pep Guardiola defeated the Magpies 3–1 on the night and 5–1 on aggregate at the Etihad, where Eddie Howe and the Geordies simply don’t know how to kick a ball at. Howe’s side needed a dramatic turnaround, yes, but conceded […]
On Wednesday, the Detroit Tigers made the biggest addition of the Scott Harris era. After a pretty quiet offseason that drew a ton of frustration from the fanbase, they made one of the biggest moves of the offseason by signing left-handed free agent starter to a three year deal worth $115 million. Valdez will have […]
The Rays have done some shuffling among their infield group this offseason. Most notably, they traded away Brandon Lowe and have continued to prioritize bat-to-ball and plate skills over whiff-prone power bats. Gavin Lux was acquired as a stop gap at 2B, and Ben Williamson’s recent acquisition makes him the front runner to fill a […]
T.O. Barrett’s breakout moment is easy to spot. It played out with five minutes left in regulation against Oklahoma. Missouri trailed by three. Barrett caught a ball reversal in the right slot and waited for Shawn Phillips Jr. to trot up and set a ball screen on the Sooners’ Tae Davis. Barrett didn’t need it. […]
We’ve moved to our 6th-best Chicago Bears playoff victory of the Super Bowl era, and it’s the only opponent that shows up twice in this series. Of the playoff victories the Bears have had during the Super Bowl era, there have been only two teams they have beaten twice. The New Orleans Saints, who had […]
This season, the fifth that I have been covering for Everton’s Youth teams, seems to be making a lot more sense than previous years. I recall seasons, not too long ago, which saw once-promising talent peak and fester in the Under 21s before, largely fading quietly into the lower reaches of the Football League. There’s […]
The recruitment of dual-nationals continues to be at the forefront of nearly every program’s strategy, both as a short-term boost before tournaments and to provide future options to the pool. Many talents will resist these overtures, but others may be intrigued by the opportunities presented by a switch. Ethan Schilte-Brown has the potential to be […]
It’s been somewhat of an unusual season for Michigan. Dusty May’s Wolverines came out of the gate hot, overwhelming opponents in unprecedented fashion. How unprecedented? In a five-game stretch spanning late November to early December, Michigan defeated San Diego State by 40, Auburn by 30, Gonzaga by 40, Rutgers by 41 and Villanova by 28. […]
For Hawaii football team, nation’s earliest spring ball is part of the drill Welcome to Timmy Chang’s Hawaii Rainbow Warrior football program, where spring practices start before the Super Bowl concludes. Brian McInnis of Spectrum News Hawaii details why the Warriors elect to start spring ball so soon. Early enrollee Maika Eugenio and transfer Bjorn […]
We are launching a new daily article here at South Side Sox, more prominently than our items that pop up on The Feed. It falls under the category of White Sox Discussions, which you’ll see in a few weeks will also be our new branding for Game Threads. Our Discussion series continues by addressing those […]
First a quick glance at last week’s results in San Diego, likely the last time that tourney is sponsored by Farmer’s Insurance (We are apparently not Farmer’s. Bum ba-dum bum bum bum bum.) Davis Thompson started hot but cooled off quickly in the back half of his opening round, and really didn’t get anything going […]
I don’t buy the link below because the headline is pretty wild by saying that Malik Willis will get a $71 million contract, but also because I don’t think the Rams would be interested in Malik Willis, but I do think Willis will have a market. Maybe the Rams would be interested in having him […]

Seven years ago, the New England Patriots went up against Los Angeles Rams with the Vince Lombardi Trophy on the line and produced a historic defensive battle. Their 13-3 victory remains the lowest-scoring among the 59 Super Bowls played so far. Why is this relevant? Because the Patriots’ return to the game’s biggest stage is […]
This offseason, it was a bit surprising to see that the Detroit Lions—after using a third-round pick to trade for him in 2024—opted not to re-sign cornerback Carlton Davis after a solid year with the team. It turns out the Lions did make a play to re-sign the veteran cornerback, but there was a dispute […]
Last week, Red Sox fans Damon Campagna, Lily Rose Smith and Patrick Spaulding filed a class-action lawsuit against the team in U.S. District Court, alleging that it charged illegal junk fees from at least 2022 through 2024 and used “drip pricing” to inflate the stated costs for tickets. I believe them. To be clear, I […]
At the start of this episode I give Ryan, a Bulls fan, the opportunity to talk about Jaden Ivey being shipped to Chicago from Detroit. With no Purdue game to talk about on this episode Ryan and I wanted to take some time to slow down, take a step back, and look at the remaining […]
From a skyscraper climb to draft-pick math and cap-hit reality, the Ombudsman is back to clean up another week of Blueshirt Bandwidth.
In keeping with decades of Wizards tradition, they made a major transaction while I was otherwise occupied. Today, it was meetings and deadlines. In previous years, I’ve been on flights, at business events, or behind the wheel on long drives. My first reaction to the Wizards trading for Anthony Davis: “This is nuts.” Then someone […]
The Washington Commanders hired Daronte Jones as their new defensive coordinator, and more changes to his coaching staff were reported last night. Several coaches have already found new jobs, including former DC Joe Whitt Jr. Washington also reportedly moved on from a few more coaches who haven’t found a new team. The Commanders are reportedly […]

The NBA Trade Deadline Day for the 2025-26 NBA season is today at 3 p.m. ET. The Washington Wizards are already part of the shenanigans around trade deadline day, with Anthony Davis getting traded to Washington yesterday. And Trae Young was traded to DC just last month. Could something else happen today? We shall see! […]
