I guess it’s a useful exercise, as we tiptoe ever closer to the promised land, to take one more quick glance at the abyss. A Victor Wembanyama injury, short term, long term, chronic, you name it, is the proverbial other shoe waiting to drop. It’s not an anchor that weighs the franchise down, and it’s […]
Good morning, BBN! It’s gameday, and the No. 21 Texas Longhorns are in town. Kickoff is at 7:00 PM EST, and you can watch the game on ESPN. Believe it or not, this is the first game at Kroger Field in over a month. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, most […]
A glance at Darian DeVries’ coaching track record reveals one constant: his teams shoot the ball — and shoot it well. The scouting report on Drake and West Virginia, where he previously coached, often warned that if given space, his ...

It was a spectacular day of baseball yesterday, Seattle and Toronto kicking things off with a thriller, and Shohei Ohtani putting on a Friday night show to cinch their second-consecutive pennant. After a long year of ups and downs, it’s once again the Dodgers who capture the pennant, and they’ll await a winner from the […]
Today the New York Islanders face the Senators in Ottawa, where both teams have stumbled out of the gate amid modestly increased expectations over last year. The Senators, who finally broke through the playoff line last spring, they’re also dealing with injuries highlighted by Brady Tkachuk’s expected two-month departure due to surgery on his thumb. […]
Manchester City return to Premier League action following the October international break as they welcome Everton to the Etihad Stadium. The Blues, who haven’t lost since August, are up against a side still in their new stadium honeymoon period, but are weakened by the loss of star man and City loanee Jack Grealish. Pep Guardiola […]
Last time the Blues met a red team, things ended up going in our favour at the very nick of time. How will we fare today? This Nottingham Forest team has lost most if not all of its steam since last season. Their last win was recorded two months ago against Brentford and since then […]
In the earlier days of rock ‘n’ roll, some of the great stars were Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis and Buddy Holly. All of them ran into issues of one sort or another by the 1960’s. Elvis got drafted and worse, he got involved with Col. Tom Parker, who had him […]

In a recent 2026 NFL mock draft, the Miami Dolphins sent a bold message to Tua Tagovailoa with a pick that raises serious questions about his future.
To fit in with the Blue Jays series, the Kraken have been sent to Toronto.
Apologies for the short hiatus in this series, as I battled a cold that took my energy following Week 6 of college football. I’m almost back to 100% now, and we have a lot of storylines to touch on that occurred in my absence, so I won’t waste any more time with the preamble. Let’s […]
The second half of Tech’s regular season begins with a road trip to Durham to face everyone’s (least) favorite New Jersey trust fund babies. In some ways I feel for David Cutcliffe. He spent well over a decade dragging Duke football from deep in the mud up to honorable mediocrity and then to genuine ACC […]
The Magic have been one of my teams for a couple of years now. I love Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, and their collection of young defenders is exciting to watch. Unfortunately, their Achilles heel has been their inability to score, and they have been ousted from the playoffs in consecutive years due to an […]
Newcastle United may have to part ways with striker William Osula in January, depending on the recovery timeline of fellow forward Yoane Wissa, who has yet to make his debut with the Magpies. According to Football Insider’s Pete O’Rourke, the 22-year-old could leave on loan if Eddie Howe’s attacking options return to full fitness in […]
Liverpool and Manchester United resume hostilities tomorrow. Or rather on field hostilities, as the hostilities for each other never really fades, regardless of fortunes on the pitch. United have been a bit of a bogey team for the Reds in recent seasons, including their last two visits to Anfield, both of which ended in disappointing […]
The first week of Arizona softball’s fall scrimmages consisted of the intrasquad Red-Blue game. One big takeaway from that was the need for defensive improvements, especially in the outfield. It appears that the Wildcats have addressed that issue during the past week. UA played a doubleheader against NAIA Benedictine University-Mesa and NJCAA Chandler-Gilbert Community College. […]
Get up, ‘Dawgs! It’s game day! As usual, we start off with your official hype video. It’s time to cut loose. Elsewhere Dawgs247’s Jordan Hill has a rundown of national football writers’ picks for the game. Spoiler alert: a solid majority are picking the Red and Black, which on the one hand always makes me […]
As so many of the other perceived contenders continue to falter (looking at you, Miami), the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes continue to be the best team in all of college football. While Ryan Day and his team are not focused on style points (and they certainly don’t need to be), they might end up […]

It’s going to be the battle of the lefty quarterbacks when the Miami Dolphins take on the Cleveland Browns tomorrow. From the sounds of it, the weather may not be that great either with some strong winds in the forecast. Either way, this is going to be a battle of one win teams who both […]
We may have witnessed – in Game 4 of the 2025 NLCS – the greatest performance in a major league baseball game by a single player. Shohei Ohtani won the MVP award (after being introduced as "the greatest baseball player on the planet") largely because of his unprecedented performance in the Dodgers' pennant-winning 5-1 victory on Friday night in Los Angeles, finishing off a dominating sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers (who had won all six of the games the two teams played d...
Chelsea were supposed to get healthier over the break, but that hasn’t exactly happened, at least not just yet, with a dozen players injured or otherwise unavailable for today’s game against Nottingham Forest. Some of that was expected, but some of that is certainly surprising, such as in midfield, where both Enzo Fernández and Moisés […]
Kansas Jayhawks News It seems more and more like someone just dropped a pocket knife and that it was not thrown at the Kansas sideline. Is this a bad look for Leipold and Kansas? I for one am disappointed that the Sunflower Showdown got an 11am kickoff time This UDK opinion piece says ease up […]
Miami (OH) running back Kenny Tracy was officially ruled out for the season per head coach Chuck Martin. The coach disclosed the nature of the injury in his weekly press conference leading up to the RedHawks’ Week 8 home matchup vs. Eastern Michigan. “Kenny’s done for the year,” Martin said. “He unfortunately reinjured his knee.

LOS ANGELES – After five preseason games where they often played with various key rotation players out, on Friday, the Lakers finally had a game they took seriously. Head coach JJ Redick called this preseason finale a dress rehearsal for his team. No, the Lakers didn’t win, falling 117-116 to the Kings. However, this contest wasn’t […]
