Jimmie Johnson found himself at the center of a lighthearted social media moment during the 24 Hours of Le Mans weekend, prompting a hilarious reaction from Dale Earnhardt Jr.
The Seattle Seahawks defense dismantled the Houston Texans on Monday night. Things like 31 yards allowed to running backs, 10 tackles for loss, and 12 passes defensed, you know. Just a normal day in Mike Macdonald land. Anybody who watched the game knows the score and discrepancy should have been an avalanche, had the refs […]
There are positives from the Detroit Tigers’ 2025 season that might be fleeting. Others look more foundational. One development in particular solidified the roster at the key position on the field for years to come. Dillon Dingler stepped up in a big way in his first full major league season, and the catcher position now […]
Which storyline was your favorite? Unbearable hurricane-like conditions drowning the players in the maelstrom of an untamed sea? Two left-handed, sub-6-feet-tall Hawaiian quarterbacks facing off in a once-in-a-lifetime showdown? Opposing teams with orange as a secondary color and matching 1-5 records playing for absolutely nothing other than pride? It was destined to be one for […]

The start of the NBA season approaching means it’s time for my favorite bi-annual tradition: depressing my co-workers by asking them long=term questions about the state of the Philadelphia 76ers. As a team that quickly went from title contenders to ping=pong ball hopefuls, there’s a lot of ways this season can go. So I’ve given […]
Depending on what study or statistic you’re looking at, the average tenure for a player who makes it to Major League Baseball is in the realm of three to six years. That makes every year an important year for pretty much anybody who plays professional baseball. Still, some years are more important than others. It […]
Gian Piero Gasperini spoke to the media earlier today ahead of Roma’s Europa League meeting with Viktoria Plzeň. While his tone was steady and still optimistic, his responses gave off a clear undercurrent of caution heading into a match that many have written down as a guaranteed three points. After falling short against Inter over […]

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay proved why he’s one of the better offensive minds in the NFL in the Week 7 win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. McVay got deep in his bag, pulling out something that even he hadn’t attempted in his nine years as the Rams’ head coach and play-caller. Without wide […]
Can a Final Four be medicinal? As many of you know, I was away from Hammer & Rails, the site I started way back in 2009, for the past three years. Casey and I were doing our work over at Rivals.com before they were bought out by On3, ending a tenure that, in retrospect, feels […]
Emil Andrae is back with the Phantoms, he’s been given a significant role to work with, and he’s taking it all in stride. From the get-go, Andrae was given the expected high volume of minutes at even strength, as well as deployment on their top power play unit, but along with that, as something of a newer development, he’s been getting some work on the penalty kill. A lot of work on the penalty kill. There is the plain fact of that matter that, by virtue of the Phantoms continuing to take...
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense is one of the best in the NFL – I bet you didn’t have that on your bingo card. They currently rank seventh in the NFL in EPA per play, tied with the Detroit Lions in that regard, and they are tied with the Rams in 11th in points per game […]
“Guys, you’re still trying to replace Giambi. I told you, we can’t do it. We can’t do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create him; recreate him in the aggregate.” If you don’t immediately recognize those words from Moneyball , you’ve got some homework to do this weekend. But regardless of whether or not you’ve read the book/seen the movie, that may have sounded oddly familiar to you. And that’s because Jed Hoyer did his best Brad Pit t Billy Beane impression at his end-of-season...

Usually I post my college updates and weekend schedule for the Blackhawks on Thursday mornings, but three days between games and the Hawks having an early evening game in Tampa on Thursday gives us an opportunity to look ahead a day earlier than usual. This new weekend of college hockey marks the first time this season that all four teams with Blackhawks prospects are ranked. Thanks to a hot start from their sophomore netminder, the Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs have joined the rankings. ...

I was seven years old when I had my heart broken for the first time. Funnily enough, it wasn’t by the Mariners. The year was 2001. The Mariners had lost in the ALCS the year before, but I was too young to understand what that meant. My brain must have undergone some maturation that winter […]
The Indianapolis Colts are 6-1. Read that sentence again. The Colts could be 7-0 if it weren’t for several bonehead plays against the Rams. Ok, let’s not focus on what could have been. Let’s focus on the here and now. Seven weeks in and the Colts hold the best record in all of football. Even […]
Well, they tried! Try and try they might, the Houston Texans just couldn’t claw their way to victory in an ugly match against the Seattle Seahawks. They might have picked Sam Darnold off, they might have blocked a field goal, they might have even scored a defensive touchdown thanks to Will Anderson Jr., but this […]
