The Milwaukee Bucks got back in the win column, 123-99, against the Dallas Mavericks last night as several familiar faces (including Khris Middleton), were back in town. The Bucks were piping hot, and the Mavs were ice cold—that’s really the main story of the contest. Sometimes, the game really is just about a bucket. Read […]
Happy April Fools day, everyone! I don’t have a trick for you, although some may call any analysis after only five games a “joke.” We’ll call this one an “observation” from Baltimore’s first homestand just to be safe. The Orioles entered the season with plenty of uncertainty in the bullpen. New closer Ryan Helsley looks […]
My love for Colt Keith knows no bounds. There’s no style of prospect I love more than a middle infielder with plus hit and power tools, which Keith was as he tore his way through the minor leagues. You know I love this guy: in the last month, I’ve written an article about how he […]
On Friday afternoon, the Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo will, finally, have players. WNBA Expansion Draft 2026 is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Ahead of the first significant event on the WNBA’s compressed offseason calendar, Josh Felton took a stab at predicting which five players each team would protect. Now, Cat Ariail and Zack […]
So if you saw the preview for this game yesterday, you read this: José Soriano was the Angels Opening Day starter. I daresay he wouldn’t have had that role for most other teams. He’s good, no question, but that good? Well… I dunno, but maybe Soriano is that good? He absolutely baffled Cubs hitters for […]
Marcus Rashford’s future at Barcelona appears to be growing more complicated amid conflicting speculation about the buy option in his loan deal with the Catalan giants. Cadena SER reported earlier today that Rashford’s €30 million purchase option expired at the end of March and is no longer valid. More updates have now followed which claim […]
The origin of April Fool’s Day remains murky. It appears to have originated in the early to mid-1500s in France. Many people still partake today, pranking family, friends, and co-workers. It’s a bit of a remnant from a time when we didn’t take everything so seriously and could still laugh at ourselves and with others. […]
When the Dallas Cowboys begin their draft preparation for a given draft class at the start of the college football season, they start out with a list of about 1,100 – 1,200 potential draft prospects. That list grows in August and September, and sometimes through October, as the team usually adds 300-400 players that weren’t […]
Round Rock fell 5-3 in 10 innings. Robbie Ahlstrom struck out three and walked one in two shutout innings. Surprise surprise Peyton Gray struck out two and walked one in two scoreless. Gavin Collyer allowed the tying run to score on a flared single with two outs in the ninth on what Scott Lucas noted […]
You know the old saying about good things and those who wait. Andrew Painter had to wait longer than he expected for his MLB debut. But he provided plenty of good things in his first start. 8 strikeouts. Nasty curveballs. Vicious changeups. The answer might be a little obvious— Painter provided little to quibble with— […]
It is April 1st, the month of the 2026 NFL Draft. The countdown to draft weekend is even more on the mind of the football community from here. On Monday, ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller authored a seven-round mock draft that featured nine predicted selections for the Kansas City Chiefs. He provided plenty of analysis […]
Adam Silver certainly has a tendency to make remarkable announcements at this time of year, and 2026 is no exception. In fact, this year’s announcement is especially profound for Spurs fans because it directly and immediately affects the Silver and Black. The announcement also affects this season’s playoffs for all teams, and will continue to do so for years […]

There go the Houston Rockets, doing that thing where they make us hope once again that they’ve figured things out. If you think the Rockets have had a nightmare season, look at the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks dealt with Giannis Antetokounmpo trade rumors in the offseason, then again during the season, then again again during […]
It’s already been an eventful week for Indiana Athletics. Football’s spring practices have gone on as the program welcomes several newcomers and transfer portal news is starting to come out for both basketball programs with the women’s team seeing several entries. Here’s what to know about the Hoosiers today: What they’re saying about the Hoosiers […]
Fernando Mendoza committed to join head coach Curt Cignetti’s Indiana football program on Christmas Eve of 2024. Just over one year and an extra month later, the two won the Hoosiers’ first national championship in program history. Cignetti, who recruited and signed Mendoza’s younger brother Alberto during his time at James Madison, recalled meeting Fernando […]
The offseason is underway for the Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team, and one of the program’s most recent recruits appears to not be returning for the 2026-27 season. Justus Fitzgerald — a six-foot-one forward who played sparingly this past year — will be entering the transfer portal, she announced Tuesday in a post on Instagram. […]
The 16th (or 10th, 12th, 17th or 18th) ranked Crimson Tide won their 8th straight game on Tuesday night as a 9th inning home run by Brady Neal proved to be the winning run in beating Jacksonville State 4-3 in a road contest. Bama got an early two run home run from Johnny Lemm and […]

The Miami Heat finally picked up an encouraging win in their previous Monday night win over the Philadelphia 76ers. A late run fueled by multiple clutch buckets from Tyler Herro secured the victory, snapping a two-game skid. However, Miami faces a daunting task in hopes of avoiding returning to the loss column— as they are […] The post GAME PREVIEW: Heat hosting another difficult matchup in rival Boston Celtics appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Two weeks ago, Maryland began its six-game loss streak after falling 7-5 against Richmond. That streak ended after a 6-4 victory over No. 12 USC on Saturday. The run rule cut half of the Terps’ games short during their skid. But on Tuesday, Maryland found itself on the other end of a blowout. Maryland dominated […]
The Toronto Maple Leafs are in the market for a new GM, and probably a president too. I’m offering my services. No, not for the jobs themselves. But I’m willing to act as a consultant for the interview process. Specifically, I’ve got a few questions that I’d love to see Keith Pelley and his hiring committee ask potential candidates before making a decision on who’ll lead this franchise into the future. Normally I’d charge a hefty fee to a corporate client for this sort of insight, but given th...
Whereas the Los Angeles Rams seem content to keep Davantae Adams on their team, there were reports that L.A. did consider trading the star receiver this past offseason, and the Rams didn’t say those reports were a lie, so despite the Rams saying they want to keep Adams, expect trade rumors to linger. If for […]
The Cleveland Browns offseason has ground to a bit of a halt, like most teams, as the 2026 NFL draft is just a few weeks away. Offseason activities will kick off early next week before GM Andrew Berry looks to fill HC Todd Monken’s roster with more young players, including a fullback. For most Browns […]
The NFL’s Annual Meeting in Phoenix is a good reminder of one thing: we’re not far into the Ed Policy era, but he’s already had a lot to navigate. Since Policy took over, the Packers made a major trade and made significant decisions about the future of their front office and their coaching staff, all […]
