The Seattle Kraken entered the offseason determined to take a step forward after another disappointing campaign that left them out of the playoff picture. General manager Jason Botterill has made…
This is the biggest regular-season Chicago Bears game since… last week. The Bears beat the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles a week ago in a first-place vs. first-place battle, but this Sunday is the Bears vs. the Green Bay Packers with the division lead on the line is as big as it gets. On […]
The Baltimore Ravens downgraded quarterback Lamar Jackson and wide receivers Rashod Bateman and Devontez Walker on their second injury report of Week 13. Jackson did not participate in Thursday’s practice after a limited session on Wednesday. He is still expected to play on Sunday against the Steelers. Bateman and Walker were full participants on Wednesday […]
According to Nick Piecoro, the Diamondbacks have been in discussions with free-agent relief pitcher Pete Fairbanks. GM Mike Hazen has made no secret of this desire to improve the D-backs bullpen, an area which has been one in desperate need of improvement for years. Last month, I looked at the situation, and found that this […]
The Detroit Lions are once again back in the prime time spotlight, but this time in a bumpier spot than normal. Riddled with late season injuries once more, the Lions need a win against the Dallas Cowboys tonight on “Thursday Night Football” on their precarious road to the playoffs. With the stakes so high, national […]
It seems like there is at least half the people that visit here who want to see KAM and KOC fired based on my rudimentary perusal of the comments in the 12/02 News and Links post. I said in that post that I did not think it is going to happen. I still feel that […]
The Montreal Canadiens rank 30th in the NHL in goals against average, at 3.54 allowed per game. Similarly, they're 30th in save percentage, at .877. If the team hopes to maintain its push to the top of the Atlantic Division, it will certainly need to address the goaltending. Sam Montembeault has been supremely disappointing this season, with a 5-6-1 mark, an .861 Sv% and a 3.61 goals against average. The Habs came into the season feeling like their goaltending was in good hands, as the 2...
In 2008, Chris Paul was the most annoying person living rent-free in my head. During the Western Conference Semifinals, Paul averaged a very annoying 23.7 points and 10.7 assists per game in that series against my beloved San Antonio Spurs. He and David West (also a future former Spur) were the thorn in the Spurs’ […]
According to the Dallas Mavericks’ public relations office, third-year center Dereck Lively II is seeking out multiple opinions on next steps concerning his injured right foot. Lively last played in a November 21st game against the Pelicans. This season he’s played in just seven games after missing time in 2024-25 due to a fracture in […]
The Mets are interested in Twins ace Joe Ryan, per a report by Jon Heyman, who adds that the Twins like Mets pitching prospect Jonah Tong. Ryan had a 3.42 ERA, the best single season mark of his career, with a 3.74 FIP in 171.0 innings for the Twins this year. The 29-year-old righty has […]
Outside of the New York Giants, four of the five remaining opponents for the Las Vegas Raiders either have a winning record or is even at .500. That final four are intent on getting the best possible seed in the postseason dance or getting into the playoffs so winning out is of utmost importance. Then, […]
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stayed away from it. Defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley stayed away from it. But offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich was willing to make a statement about what Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson said in his opening press conference. If you need a reminder, Johnson was surprisingly hired by the […]
f you blinked, you might have missed the moment Will Stein transformed from “the new guy” into the unquestioned leader of Kentucky football. His introductory press conference wasn’t just a meet-and-greet; it was a manifesto. In less than an hour, he laid out a vision that is radically different from the last decade of football […]
The Buffalo Bills and cornerback Ja’Marcus Ingram are not set for a reunion in the same week where they gave parting glances. Instead, Ingram is headed to play for the Houston Texans, which claimed him off waivers to add him to their 53-man active roster. To make room for Ingram, the Texans placed another former […]
Confidence in the Chargers’ postseason potential has grown and and shrunk wildly this year depending on the week. After starting 3-0 against the AFC West, it seemed like it was going to be a magical year for the Bolts. Fast-forward to their bye week (after going 4-4 over their next eight games) and the vibes […]
The Washington Wizards play the Boston Celtics at 7 p.m. tonight. Watch the game on Monumental Sports Network. Enjoy the game!
I read something somewhere that this season is the “with that being said” season. Meaning, a lot of athletes are entering the transfer portal. Whenever they post on social media that they are entering the transfer portal, they end it by saying “with that being said.” Edge rusher Landyn Watson will be entering the transfer […]
I have seen many a Green Bay Packer fan referring to the Chicago Bears and their lofty 9-3 record as “frauds.” I understand the impulse and would like nothing more than to join everyone in ridiculing the flaws of our neighbors to the South, but I don’t think that “fraud” is the right word. It […]
It’s just not good enough. Manchester United dropped points at Old Trafford once again on Thursday, failing to hold onto a slim lead in the second half after a slew of defensive changes by Ruben Amorim. Diogo Dalot may not have been the best right back on the pitch that evening, but he had the […]

Going into the official start of the Hot Stove season, the Padres still have some outstanding work to be done regarding housekeeping. President of baseball operations/general manager A.J. Preller is still a lame duck general manager and there has still not been a third base coach hired/announced. The lack of any decision regarding Preller is […]
