GALLERY: Moments from Iowa State’s 7-2 loss to Iowa
With Chelsea in the midst of an historically terrible run of results, including five straight defeats in the league without scoring even a single goal, something that last happened to us in 1912, the inevitable simply had to follow. Liam Rosenior was dismissed this morning by the club, after three and half months (just over […]
Sweeps are never easy to stomach. Sweeps that extend a losing streak and slide your team to the bottom of the conference standings are even more unpleasant. With three losses in Ann Arbor over the weekend, Northwestern baseball sits at the basement of the Big Ten and the benchmarks for success in 2026 have officially […]
While most that support mid-major basketball think it to be a bad idea, and that includes myself, the Southern Conference announced its support for the expansion of the NCAA Tournament from a 68-team field to 76 teams Tuesday morning by commissioner Michael Cross. Most of us have several questions, and it’s hard to know exactly […]
The transfer portal officially closed at 11:59 on Tuesday night, and we’ll look at some of what’s happened, but there are a couple of things to keep in mind: first, as we understand it, coaches have 48 hours to enter names into the portal, so it’s possible there will be some late entries over the […]
Northwestern delivered big in its first of two midweek matchups this week with an 11-6 win over Bradley. After being swept by Michigan, including a one-hit performance as a team in Sunday’s 2-1 loss, the Wildcats (15-21-1, 5-13) bounced back as they started the week on a positive note. Jackson Freeman, Ryan Kuckerak and Jack […]
By the time you read this, Arsenal may be in second place. They would lose top of the table position via second or third tie-breaker, sure, but what a collapse! There is still time to turn it around, and clinch the Premier League title somehow, but if Manchester City wins out, well, there is nothing […] The post Arsenal Team News vs Newcastle: Bukayo Saka, Riccardo Calafiori, Jurrien Timber appeared first on The Sports Bank .
With Liverpool spending big last summer only to find their Premier League title defence over by October, the later stages of the 2025-26 campaign have turned into something of a post-mortem as fans and pundits cast about for answers.

The Sixers beat the Celtics at TD Garden on opening night — a game which took place in October, though it feels like a lifetime ago. On that night, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe were magnificent. The veteran guard dropped 40 while the rookie poured in 34. With Joel Embiid struggling mightily and Paul George […]
The long-running downtown ballpark saga appears to be coming to a conclusion – the Royals are moving to Crown Center. The team made the announcement Wednesday morning at a “special event” featuring Mayor Quinton Lucas and Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe. Royals owner John Sherman announced a project that would place a new stadium as part […]
Diamondbacks News Kelly, Diamondbacks Battered by White Sox, Poor LuckLet’s not get this twisted. The Diamondbacks deserved to lose last night’s game. But an equipment malfunction in the first might have changed the course of the entire game. An oblivious ump and the MLB’s silly rule about what can and cannot be reviewed also contributed […]
The NFL Draft is all about collecting data. In order to finalize boards and make decisions on picks and trades, teams rely on a vast amount of information that has been gathered not just over the last few weeks and months but oftentimes going back several years.

And we have a series! I was watching closely for the Edmonton Oilers’ breakout against the Anaheim Ducks’ speedy forecheck, and wouldn’t you know it, it was a one-sided affair for the first five minutes of Game 1. The Oilers started on time by controlling the puck in their zone and moving it efficiently up…
Baltimore Beatdown is thrilled to present our final 2026 NFL Draft Big Board! Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said last week that the team has identified 197 draftable prospects, and (not-so) coincidentally, so did we! Embedded below is a spreadsheet with our full player rankings, scouting notes, and positional rankings on both sides of the […]
Just under three years ago, we premiered Pride of Detroit Direct—our premium, email-based newsletter that has bonus Detroit Lions content, including in-depth analysis, film breakdowns, and exclusive video podcasts. It’s been a while since I’ve talked about Pride of Detroit Direct on the website, and I figured now—with the NFL Draft a day away—would be […]
Right-handed starter Matt Waldron began the 2026 season on the injured list, recovering from surgery that was needed in the spring.

The 2026 NFL Draft is nearly here. Three days of excitement, hope, and probably a little bit of chaos await football fans this weekend as the annual marathon event begins on Thursday evening. The Green Bay Packers head into this year’s draft with eight selections, but without a first-round pick after trading it away to […]
As much as everyone likes to harp on drafting the best available players, every team prioritizes positions of need on its board. The Jacksonville Jaguars are a good bet to add pass rush depth behind Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker, linebacker competition to compensate for Devin Lloyd’s departure, and big-bodied skill players to diversify Liam […]

Check out Ryan’s picks this year at: We’ve just about […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is now just one day away from kicking off, and the Bears have surely been doing their due diligence in their evaluation process.
