We are just hours away from the biggest regular season game in Seattle Seahawks franchise history. They’ve been the No. 1 seed before, but they’ve never had to clinch it in this fashion on the final day of the regular season. The winner of the Seahawks vs. San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara gets It’s […]
The San Francisco 49ers have their biggest game of the season coming up, as they’re fighting for the No. 1 seed against the Seattle Seahawks in primetime on Saturday Night at Levi’s Stadium. Heading into the week, the 49ers had a couple of players dealing with injuries. Cornerback Renardo Green had missed last week’s game […]

In Today’s Links: (mostly) everything that a Seattle Seahawks fan could possibly need to prepare for tonight’s big, huge, fantastical NFC West Championship game against the San Francisco 49ers down in Santa Clara, CA. Dive into the links, lather yourself in the knowledge, analysis, punditry, and predilections, and come out the other end feeling shiny. […]
The latest Patrick Mahomes wears Oregon Ducks jersey after lost bet to Jeff Bassa | DucksWire Las Vegas Raiders-Kansas City Chiefs: Key numbers | Silver and Black Pride 6-0: The Chiefs are 6-0 at Allegiant Stadium since it opened in 2020. That includes a 2024 Super Bowl win over the San Francisco 49ers. 131: That […]
Yesterday, I wrote about how I thought the San Francisco Giants were done signing starting pitchers. After adding Tyler Mahle and Adrian Houser on one and two-year deals, respectively, the Giants now have five established starters, as that duo joins incumbents Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, and Landen Roupp. Not everyone agrees with that assessment. Some […]
The Seattle Seahawks (13-3) have already tied for the most wins in a season in franchise history. With the benefit of a 17th game their 2005 and 2013 predecessors did not have, they can break that mark with a famous 14th win. All that stands between this year’s Seahawks and the NFC West championship plus […]
First place in the NFC West and the No. 1 seed in the NFC is at stake in Santa Clara on Saturday night between the Seattle Seahawks (13-3) and San Francisco 49ers (12-4). If the Seahawks win or tie, they win the division and the first-round bye to the NFC Divisional Round. A 49ers win […]
49ers vs. Seahawks: The Standard’s 5 fast predictions (paywall)“Kawakami: 49ers 23, Seahawks 20. In contrast to the 49ers’ last few games, field position and field goals should be enormous in this game. Nobody’s likely to put up 400 yards. There won’t be 10 huge plays; maybe just two or three. And presuming George Kittle is back, […]
1914 Sydney Cricket Ground was the scene of today’s World Tour game, as the White Sox beat the Giants, 5-4. Some 10,000 fans attended. It would be 100 years before the majors returned to Australia, when the Dodgers and Diamondbacks opened the 2014 season at the Ground. 1936 Future White Sox co-owner Eddie Einhorn was […]
The Seattle Seahawks will not have starting left tackle Charles Cross for Saturday’s Week 18 NFC West and No. 1 seed title decider against the San Francisco 49ers, marking his third consecutive missed game due to a hamstring injury. Luckily, whether the Seahawks gets a first-round bye or not, it looks as if his return […]
The San Francisco 49ers take on the Seattle Seahawks in a battle for the No. 1 seed on Saturday Night at Levi’s Stadium, with the loser being either the No. 5 or No. 6 seed in the NFC. For the 49ers, their offense has been rolling since Brock Purdy returned from a toe injury. But, […]
On December 28th in 2011, San Jose Sharks captain Joe Thornton thrice planted his finger firmly into the face of Vancouver Canucks forward Henrik Sedin whilst pleading his club's case before referee Gord Dwyer. Thornton's taunts, reminiscent of the Burrows/Bergeron Stanley Cup Final finger biting episode and aftermath, were neither penalized nor effective as the Canucks Western Conference Final
It’s ancient history now, but the San Francisco 49ers have had a few sideline moments over the years. This year, the major one was when wide receiver Jauan Jennings and head coach Kyle Shanahan were caught on camera in a heated argument on the sidelines during San Francisco’s Week 6 loss to the Tampa Bay […]
The Seattle Seahawks have a crucial Week 18 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday evening in a winner take all battle that will decide both first place in the NFC West and the top seed in the NFC. In the wake of the Seahawks offense struggling at times and failing to perform at […]
Two in one day? Only for you guys! Season In Review sticks with the pitchers but shifts to the starting side of things. Right-hander Joey Estes was once one of the top pitching prospects in the Athletics’ farm system and has shown flashes here and there, but he’s fallen behind in the pecking order behind […]
A few weeks ago, the Seattle Seahawks faced the Los Angeles Rams in what seemed to be the “NFC West final.” Well, two weeks later we have another final ahead of us. The game is very important; a victory, besides making the Seahawks the team with the most wins against opponents already qualified for the […]
We’re nearly two months removed from the San Francisco 49ers allowing 42 points at home to the then Super Bowl favorite Los Angeles Rams. The result dropped the Niners to just one game over .500, leaving many fans skeptical about a playoff berth. That was Week 10. We’re heading into the final week of the […]
We’re slowly approaching the end of our Season In Review series, which means Spring Training isn’t far away. Right-handed reliever Anthony Maldonado made it back to the big leagues for the second consecutive year but only made it into six games for the Athletics. Now he’s set to pitch for a division rival next year […]
As a fan of the Los Angeles Rams, I don’t care for the San Francisco 49ers or the Seattle Seahawks, but which team do I dislike more (which team do you dislike more)? Well, no surprise, but it has to be the 49ers. We’ll credit them for all the success they’ve had and for being […]
The Columbus Blue Jackets took a bit of time to trade Yegor Chinakhov to find the right trade, but there was more interest from teams than just the Pittsburgh Penguins who ended up landing the former first-round pick. Chris Johnston reported, "There were teams around it. Going way back earlier in the season, the Leafs were one of them. I don't know that they were there later on here. San Jose I think had some interest. Winnipeg. A lot of teams were curious." Chinakhov is a 24-year-old drafted ...
This post could’ve been titled “Reassessing the Giants’ payroll situation for 2026” as a sequel to this post from earlier in the offseason, but it’s less interesting than the truth, which is that, based on what’s publicly known about the team’s expenses, the San Francisco Giants have committed to the largest Baseball Operations budget in […]
It would appear that the San Francisco Giants have set their rotation. After agreeing to a one-year New Year’s Eve special with righty Tyler Mahle, the Giants now have five established starting pitchers under contract for 2026. You can quibble with the order if you want, but, assuming health (a big assumption, admittedly), these are […]
Egor Dëmin and Michael Porter Jr. combined for 12 3-pointers in a loss to the Golden State Warriors, but neither of them were available on New Year’s Day when the Brooklyn Nets were hosting the Houston Rockets. Terance Mann would also miss the contest, leaving the Nets down three starts in their first contest of […]
The greatness that is Connor McDavid continues. On Thursday, the NHL released its Three Stars for the Month of December. Along with excellent performances from Colorado Avalanche star Nathan MacKinnon and San Jose Sharks forward Macklin Celebrini, the man who stood above the rest was Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid, who was named the First…
