Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 5, Nashville Sounds (Brewers) 2 —Game 1 F/7 The Orioles kept Sam Huff in the organization with a fresh minor league deal after he cleared waivers and elected free agency last week. The move ensured that Baltimore could turn to Huff if either Adley Rutschman or Samuel Basallo went down with an […]
Gonzaga enters Sunday’s matchup with Loyola Marymount still shaking off the stink of a win that demanded far more patience and late-game heroics than it should have. The Zags trailed Seattle U by as many as 12 points on Friday, drifted through much of the first half, and ultimately needed overtime to escape a game […]
This Cubs offseason has stunk — no doubt about it — but the Bears are sustaining me. It’s been half a decade since our football team sniffed the playoffs … and a lot longer since we actually thought they had a shot at doing anything with their opportunity. So as I sit here today, bummed and annoyed by the all too familiar lack of aggression from the Cubs front office, I am perked back up by Caleb Williams chasing franchise history at Soldier Field this afternoon and continuing that momentum in...
The Dallas Cowboys are expected to make changes to their coaching staff with focus being on the defensive side of the ball. No reporter or insider has come out and said it in a point-blank sort of way, but the heavy insinuation for a while has been that the Cowboys will likely do something about […]
The Minnesota Wild are one of the top teams in the league, but have the misfortune of being in the same division with the two other top teams in the league. They will have the toughest path to the conference finals despite being a very good team. They aren't just building a team that can compete for a Stanley Cup this season, but at least next season as well. The cost to acquire Quinn Hughes is paying off already, but more has to be done, particularly down the middle. The Wild aren't bad at ce...
The Philadelphia 76ers swung momentum back in their favor to end their five-game road trip, winning their third straight game on Saturday after losing the first two contests of the trip. The most recent saw the Sixers take down the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden 130-119 on Saturday evening on the backs of […]
Charging up the new year
After 42 games, the Edmonton Oilers possess a record of 20-16-6. While there have been some bright spots this season, it’s fair to say the Oilers’ performance in the 2025-26 NHL season thus far has been below expectations. As the Oilers enter the second half of the campaign, here are four key stats that I…
Carolina had no answer for SMU yesterday afternoon, as the Mustangs used a stunning 58-point second half to snap the Tar Heels’ seven-game winning streak on Saturday. It was as ugly a game for the UNC frontcourt as we’ve seen all year. SMU outscored Carolina 36-28 in the paint, and only lost the rebounding battle […]
This is not a bunch of woulda, coulda, shoulda. The 49ers were scheduled to play on Saturday, and they lost 13-3 to the Seattle Seahawks that night. Lost is not the right word: they got suffocated Saturday. It doesn’t help matters when offensive tackle Trent Williams and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall are both out for […]
The Jets enter Week 18 holding onto the No. 3 draft pick in 2026, with the Raiders penciled in at No. 1 and the Giants at No. 2 after New York won the Tankathon Bowl against Las Vegas in Week 17. The Jets will almost certainly be picking in the Top 5, and they still […]
Sunday’s 2025 Detroit Lions season finale is likely to be one of the least-watched games in the local Detroit market in several years. In the midst of a three-game skid, the Lions are not just tough to watch right now, they’re also essentially irrelevant—out of the playoff race and with nothing to play for but […]
The catcher—the backstop, the receiver, the wearer of the tools of ignorance, whatever you may call him— is usually regarded as a lawman. Holding base-thieving ne’er-do-wells to account, the catcher, like their fellow mask enthusiast Judge Dredd, is the law. Dredd, infamously unbending on legal matters, would never break the law himself. But criminal activity […]
Welcome to Saints Gameday! Today: New Orleans Saints (6-10) at Atlanta Falcons (7-9) The Saints face the Falcons in Atlanta today in the 2025 NFL Regular Season finale. These bitter arch-rivals may not be headed to the playoffs this season, but that won’t stop them from giving their absolute best effort in this game. The Falcons […]

Earlier this week I wrote a pregame article about the Seahawks season coming full circle in this Week 18 game between the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers. That couldn’t have been more true with how this contest turned out, a thoroughly dominant 13-3 road victory riddled with missed opportunities that would’ve saved all Seahawks […]
Barcelona’s win over Espanyol means Hansi Flick’s side are officially winter champions and have now win nine consecutive La Liga games. The run matches Flick’s best ever streak as manager of Barcelona and also puts his team seven points clear at the top of the table ahead of Real Madrid’s clash with Real Betis later. […]
1960s era Cubs shortstop Don Kessinger is instantly recognizable in this photo. The Facebook page where I found it helpfully identified the other three people in the photo. The Cubs are obviously playing the Phillies. No. 6 is Cookie Rojas, later a Cubs coach. The other Phillies player is Don Money, and the umpire is […]
Today, the Cleveland Browns take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18 of the 2025 NFL season. The Browns (4-12) will see their season come to a close, with several burning questions: Will DE Myles Garrett get the sack record? How will QB Shedeur Sanders continue to build his case? And is this the last […]

Fresh off their second win in a row, the Blackhawks are back in action on Sunday night, hosting the Vegas Golden Knights at the United Center. These two teams met in Vegas one month ago, with the Hawks unable to hold on to a late lead before ultimately losing 4-3 in the shootout . That win was part of a hot stretch for VGK, which won six of seven in late November and early December. But it’s been all downhill since, with the Knights losing seven of their last eight games, including a 4-3 ...
This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans which team they would least like to face in the AFC playoffs. 49% of respondents chose the Houston Texans, and another 42% chose a team from the AFC East (the Bills or the Patriots). The Jaguars and the Texans are both undefeated (7-0) since the last time they […]
After a disappointing Miami Heat loss to the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night, this Heat team continues to seemingly take one step forward for two steps back. It looked like they were finally starting to turn a corner again during their four-game win streak, highlighted by a signature win against the top seed Detroit […] The post GAME PREVIEW: Heat look to respond versus Pelicans in second half of a back-to-back appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Good morning, folks… You will be shocked to know that the baseball news is pretty sparse. Jackson Chourio is among the MLB players who were participating in the Venezuelan Winter League playoffs, which have been suspended due to the American attack on the country. JPL third baseman Kazuma Okamoto is reportedly headed to the Blue […]
