Welcome to the Game Thread. Veterans of the Game Thread know how we do things around here, but for all you newbies we have a few rules. Our community guidelines apply and basically say be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll and don’t swear too much. The first article I wrote for PTR was in March 2014, […]
I had this entire thing written up in my head. Excitement over the last two weeks, even against lackluster competition, etc. And then Friday rolled around and the injury report came out. Then we’ve gotten several reports indicating that Klubnik is a game time decision, but a lot of pessimism around the team on if […]
The Winnipeg Jets ( 3-1-0 ) have returned to Manitoba after a successful two game road trip to the East Coast and are now preparing for their second Central Division clash of the season when the Nashville Predators ( 2-1-2 ) visit the city on Saturday evening ( 6 pm Central start ). The team from Canada’s Windy City received a bit of good news when captain Adam Lowry shed the no-contact jersey in practice and appears ever-so-close to making his 2025-26 debut….but probably not today. Unfor...
Playing away in the New York metro area is a good reminder how blessed Sounders are to play in a downtown home.
We’ve got a Saturday matinee in New Jersey on deck as the Edmonton Oilers look to rebound after a sloppy 4–2 loss to the Islanders on Thursday night. What’s tricky about this first afternoon game of the season is that 1) we’re all traumatized from weird losses in daylight hours, even though the Oilers have…
No more preseason play for the New York Knicks after they capped their exhibition tour with a 4-1 record. The next time you watch your Knickerbockers play basketball will be Wednesday, when they take on the Cleveland Wannabe-Knicks. Here’s the latest we’ve heard from Coach Brown and a couple players. Mike Brown On Mitchell Robinson […]
The Buffalo Bills aren’t playing their best football right now, which means the bye week has come at a really beneficial time. Sometimes a pause/reset is necessary to get the wheels back on the track. With quarterback Josh Allen at the controls, you can be sure that the Bills won’t be held down all season. […]
Seattle Kraken head coach Lane Lambert discussed his time as an assistant coach in Toronto, the matchup against the Leafs, and his new team’s start to the season. Coming back to Toronto, you know this Leafs team very well. What do you expect out of them? Lambert: They’re a dynamic hockey team with tremendous individual […] The post Kraken head coach Lane Lambert on his experience in the Toronto market with the Leafs: “I’d certainly heard stories about how you walk down the street and this or...
Let’s get the qualifiers out of the way before we begin: yes, it was the preseason, and yes, the Timberwolves played mostly deep reserves. Still, there were plenty of encouraging signs ahead of the Sixers’ regular season opener next Wednesday in Boston. Here are three big takeaways. Processing Joel Embiid played basketball for the first […]
It may still be early days in the 2025-2026 Serie A season, but Roma and Napoli are standing atop the league table, hand in hand after six matches. And sure, the top of the table will experience some wild swings as the wheat separates from the chaff, but Giallorossi supporters are riding high as the […]
I’ve had a few requests for updated standings so here we go. So far, our celebrity guests are holding their own, while Kevin is scrounging up spare change to pay off his bookies before they send Moose and Rocco. This Continue reading Week Seven College NFL Picks: Long Lost Lisa Lays the Lumber →
Senne Lammens The young keeper’s composure stood out on his Manchester United debut, but he wasn’t severely tested for the most part. Liverpool haven’t been putting teams away this season, but they’ve assembled some of the top forwards in Europe. With top-quality forwards, it’s only a matter of time before they find a combination that […]

The Jets centre goes 1-on-1 with Elliotte Friedman in this sit down chat.
As the Fighting Illini enter the bye week at 5-2, and one win away from being bowl eligible, you can not help but think, is there really any chance the Illini have to make the College Football Playoff? Well I am here to tell you there is a path, and it is not one that […]
At 4-2, the San Francisco 49ers are atop the NFC West heading into Week 7, but are now down two stars for the rest of the season: Fred Warner and Nick Bosa. As a result, the optimism around the strong start has waned a bit, as the ceiling for the 49ers team is unknown without […]
I’m used to it: Art Howe, Ken Macha, Bob Geren, Bob Melvin, and Mark Kotsay have shared one quality and it’s that if you ask AN they don’t know how to manage a bullpen, decide when to bunt, choose whether and when to yank a starting pitcher… Certainly my critiques of Kotsay’s tactical acumen have […]
The women’s college basketball season is just around the corner, and Inside NU continues with its Northwestern player previews. Here’s a look at the returning reserves for NU this season. Kat Righeimer, Sophomore Guard/Forward (6’1″) High School: Sage Hill School (Costa Mesa, CA) The sophomore guard/forward earned her scholarship after joining the team as a […]
After ending a six-game skid earlier this week against Rutgers, Maryland volleyball will look to build momentum on the road against Michigan State. The Spartans have outperformed expectations this season and will look to add to their homecourt dominance against the Terps on Sunday. Michigan State is 8–1 at home, with its only loss at […]
The first 65 minutes of Thursday’s match were a disaster for Maryland women’s soccer. Defensive and goalkeeping blunders allowed Michigan to score a whopping four goals, tying the Terps’ high for concessions this season, as the offense couldn’t provide any answers. With a huge mountain to climb, the Terps knew they had to find a […]
During the Phillies end-of-season press conference, President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski announced that Mike Calitri will transition from bench coach to Major League Field Coordinator and the club will pursue another voice on the bench.

The Carolina Panthers improved from a two-win team in 2023 to 5-12 last year and are already 3-3 this season as they look to take the next step. They’ll be looking to head into week eight with a winning record by inflicting another defeat on the winless Jets on Sunday. The teams last met in […]
Well, just your average 10:30pm ET kickoff since Cal’s on the Atlantic Coast now (I know, with the current conference realignment, geography doesn’t matter). It was at least a good game even if it was UNC’s third straight loss. At least they were competitive in this one. Quarterbacks: D+ Gio Lopez returned with some poor […]

The Brewers hold an $8MM club option on Freddy Peralta’s services for 2026, which represents the team’s last bit of control from what was initially a five-year, $15.5MM extension signed by the right-hander back in February 2020. With Peralta now slated for free agency during the 2026-27 offseason, it is possible he has already thrown…
