He Harolded Kelly’s Beginning…He Harolds His End
I think we remember eras by players. Unless a coach is at a spot for a long period of time, you tend to associate them with the players who embodied their achievements and/or failures. Who doesn’t tie Ed Orgeron and Joe Burrow at the hip? Even despite everything that came after. I think that, when […]
Utah Jazz vs Sacramento Kings preview: Can the Jazz replicate game one’s success?
The Utah Jazz were one of the biggest surprises in the NBA’s opening slate of games, trouncing the Clippers by 21 points in an ultra efficient win on Wednesday night.

12 Days to Purdue Basketball – #12 Daniel Jacobsen
As Purdue heads to Lexington today to play Kentucky in an exhibition, we are just one Daniel Jacobsen away from its season opener against Evansville on November 4th.

Friday Open Thread: World Series Memories
The 2025 World Series kicks off tonight, pairing the reigning champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers, against the surprise AL-winners, the Toronto Blue Jays (the only team that makes the “World” Series remotely international).

Is the NFL about to ban smelling salts during games?
The NFL has a full slate of situations and products that are banned. Some are disqualified because of corporate partners with hefty sponsorships. You can’t make a deal with Oakley, then everybody on the sidelines is seen wearing Ray-Bans. The league is always looking to make a buck from its game. The official hot dog […]
Don’t Watch This; Watch That, Week 9
Help me pick my lunch. Or learn what’s wrong with Minnesota. Or something. MNW’s Lightly-Plagiarized Trivia Anyway. I am having lunch with WSR and a band of associated Minnesota miscreants today. (The other three are all Iowa fans, actually. We in Minnesota really need to end our acceptance of refugee resettlement. I’m tired of all […]

World Series Preview: Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Toronto Blue Jays (with some Houston Astros considerations)
For the Astros’ fan, deprived of any meaningful games since late September, this World Series might not seem worth watching. Hard to blame the Houston fan for thinking that. The only notable Astros news centers on the purges of coaches/trainers and the signing of a depth piece at pitcher. Still, a World Series is a […]
Astros Breakout Prospects in 2025

Below are several prospects who enjoyed breakout performances during the 2025 season. Alonzo […]
Toronto Raptors play home opener against Bucks amid World Series excitement

What’s the better Eagles color: Midnight Green or Kelly Green?
Sunday marks the return of everyone’s favorite throwback uniforms, as the Eagles will don their beloved Kelly Green look against the New York Giants.

The Lakers already need a starting lineup change
When the Lakers went into their final game of the preseason against the Sacramento Kings with nearly their entire roster available — minus LeBron James, obviously — it was largely believed this would be a dress rehearsal for their season opener that would come only four days later. Head coach JJ Redick intimated as much […]
Dominick Barlow sought opportunity in free agency. He might’ve found it with Sixers
First things first, Dominick Barlow had to set the record straight: no, he did not attend St. Joe’s Prep in Philly. Barlow attended Saint Joseph High School in Metuchen, New Jersey, as a freshman before the Hackensack native transferred to Dumont High School. He made it clear back in the early days of training camp […]

Snake Bytes 10/24
Team News After recovery from elbow woes, Jameson throwing heat in AFL“The velo is still there,” Jameson said. “The shapes of my pitches are coming around.

Purdue (2-5, 0-4) vs. Rutgers (3-4, 0-4) – Staff Predictions
Saturday’s game against the Scarlet Knights might be the last chance this Purdue team has to win a football game this season. That’s not a good feeling, but maybe it helps the team focus on the matchup as they find a way to win? I asked the staff for their predictions for this weekend’s contest. […]
When Will It Start To Click For David Jiricek?
David Jiricek probably would have liked to have drawn in for the Minnesota Wild’s home opener against the Columbus Blue Jackets on October 11. Instead, the Wild stuck him in the press box four booths down from Don Waddell, the general manager who traded him after 53 games. While they removed J...
El Clasico: Barcelona, Real Madrid Predicted Starting XIs
El Clasico is extra special because it comes but twice a year; usually. Sometimes we get three, or even four Clasicos in a season, as FC Barcelona and Real Madrid sometimes clash in tournaments, in addition to the two guaranteed meetings in La Liga every term. We had four in the last campaign, with Barcelona […] The post El Clasico: Barcelona, Real Madrid Predicted Starting XIs appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Blue Jays add Bo Bichette, Ty France to World Series roster
I figured Bo Bichette was going to be on the roster. Ty France was a surprise, but I guess they want him as a pitch hitter against the Dodgers left-hander pitchers. Joey Loperfido and Yariel Rodriguez. Rodriguez has had a tough time of it lately, giving up three earned and two home runs in one […]
The Pants Predicts: Iowa vs Minnesota
The Hawkeyes fought for the full four quarters a week ago and emerged victorious over Penn State to move to 5-2 on the year and 3-1 in Big Ten play. While they won the game outright, they notably did not cover while hitting the over. This week, Iowa opened as a pretty big favorite against […]

One player to watch on every team the Buckeyes could see in the College Football Playoff
It feels like more than a formality that the Ohio State Buckeyes are going to be in the College Football Playoff this December. If the Playoff still only had four teams, I would feel just as confident in saying that this Buckeye team would be one of four teams playing for a national championship. It’s […]
