Latest blog entries from Bay Area teams across every league
An announcement that the National Football League made on Wednesday means that the Minnesota Vikings may still end up with an international game in 2026, but not an overseas game. Allow me to explain. The league has announced that the San Francisco 49ers will serve as the home team for a game that will take […]
Discipline wasn’t an issue for the San Francisco 49ers this past season. The Niners were the least penalized team as far as penalties counted against them, and only two teams had fewer yards against them than San Francisco. However, according to The Action Network, the 49ers were fined $715,875 during the 2025 season, which was […]
The Green Bay Packers still may be a candidate to give up a home game for an international game in 2026, but they now know that if they do travel to a different country, they will do so for a game in Europe. The NFL has announced teams participating in three of the international games […]
Commanders links Articles Bullock’s Film Room (subscription) Commanders Free Agent Fits: Wide Receiver I will state up front that I’m not sure how aggressive the Commanders will be in free agency for a wide receiver. My gut feeling is that the team will take a shot on Brandon Aiyuk whenever the 49ers decide to release […]
The free agency pool is expected to grow over the next couple of weeks as teams reshape their rosters by releasing cap casualties. These cut candidates should pique the San Francisco 49ers’ interest. We are going to go over some players who were recently listed as potential cap casualties that the Niners should pursue. Steelers […]
A’s baseball officially returns to Cactus League play this weekend. I’m hyped. You’re hyped. Stickman Nick Kurtz is taking his teammates deep during live AB’s and Zack Gelof is running around in the outfield – – all is right with the world. As of this moment, there will be no televised broadcast of Saturday’s matchup […]
Add another international game to the list for the San Francisco 49ers in 2026, as they will host a regular-season game this upcoming season in Mexico City at Estadio Banorte. The opponent has yet to be announced. This might not be the only year the 49ers play in Mexico City, as there is a multi-year […]
Good morning baseball fans! As we approach the beginning of the season, we’re going to be doing some questions for y’all about your thoughts about the San Francisco Giants and baseball in general! Today’s question goes out to all the armchair GMs out there: If you were the GM for one move and one move […]
The Atlanta Falcons have seen a pair of assistants on the defensive side of the ball depart, losing passing game coordinator Mike Rutenberg to the Browns and now assistant head coach on the defensive side of the ball Jerry Gray to the 49ers. Rutenberg left to be the defensive coordinator in Cleveland, while Gray will […]
49ers continue D-line rebuild in Daniel Jeremiah’s 2026 NFL mock draft“”Hunter can hold the point against the run, and he showed flashes of his upside as a pass rusher at the Senior Bowl,” Jeremiah wrote. “Recent Super Bowl winners have featured waves of defensive linemen they can rotate. Hunter joins 2025 draft picks Alfred Collins […]
When the San Francisco Giants made the unprecedented decision to hire Tony Vitello as their next manager, it was understood that there would be some hiccups along the way. There’s a learning curve for every first-time manager, and that’s doubly true for one attempting the unheard-of leap from college to the Majors with nary a […]
When it comes to the offseason, much of the talk so far has been around where the San Francisco 49ers need to improve. Positions like wide receiver and defensive line have often been talked about, with the 49ers needing more production in both areas. But where is the team looking strong heading into 2026? Of […]
Looking to give him more chances to play, the A’s are reportedly set to get second baseman Zack Gelof some time on the grass this spring in an effort to boost his versatility. Which makes sense! Offseason acquisition Jeff McNeil looks like he’ll be getting the majority of the reps at second base (with an […]
The evergreen question for the San Francisco 49ers this offseason: Can the team find George Kittle some help? It’s an ideal free-agent and draft class to do it in. Kittle suffered an Achilles injury in the playoffs, but is optimistic he’ll return to full form. Kittle will be 33 next season. While there are no […]
Welcome to the offseason, where we talk about what a player posts on their social media. In this instance, it’s not just any player. It’s one of the very best in the NFL. Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby. In his story, there are multiple references to Crosby missing the Bay Area. Here’s one: […]
The 49ers’ 2025 draft was defined by a commitment to getting *a lot* bigger on the defensive side of the trenches, with the selections of two behemoths in Mykel Williams and Alfred Collins in the first two rounds supplemented by that of the, slightly, less formidable figure of CJ West in the fourth round. It […]
The San Francisco 49ers could stand to upgrade at wide receiver this offseason after what feels like an inevitable release of Brandon Aiyuk. The team will need a new left guard and perhaps a backup running back, depending on how they feel about Jordan James’s progress. Defensively, the secondary could stand to get faster, while […]
*In an effort to make the nomination voting easier for everyone, I will comment, “NOMINATIONS”, and you may reply to that with your picks and upvote the player you’d like to see on the next nominee list. Our CPL is rolling right along as we now have the top 14 prospects according to the fans. Right-hander […]
The San Francisco 49ers have a few holes to plug in the draft and free agency. With the way the season ended in Seattle, the 49ers’ offense needs speed at the receiver position and help up front on the offensive line. Defensively, the secondary, particularly the safety position, and the defensive line need additions. George […]
Happy Tuesday, A’s fans! I hope everyone enjoyed the three-day weekend. Spring training in Arizona is in full swing. Yesterday, the team held its first full-squad workout ahead of Saturday’s opener against the Chicago White Sox. Manager Mark Kotsay said that the A’s will not name a single closer to start the season, relying on […]
The second month of the calendar year started with a couple of convincing wins over the Clippers and Warriors for the Sixers in the midst of a West Coast swing. Since that Warriors win on Feb. 3, Philadelphia has won one game. It got blown out by Portland and New York in its final two […]
Good morning baseball fans! As we approach Spring Training and the beginning of the season, we’re going to be doing some questions for y’all about your thoughts about the San Francisco Giants and baseball in general! Today’s question: Who do you think is going to have a breakout year? After this weekend’s BP, I think […]
Barnwell proposes Mac Jones trade the 49ers might not be able to refuse“Vikings get: QB Mac Jones, 2027 third-round pick. 49ers get: 2026 second-round pick, 2027 fifth-round pick (conditional), 2028 third-round pick (conditional). “The 2027 conditional pick would trigger based on Jones’ playing time with the Vikings,” Barnwell explained. “If he starts four games in […]
On Monday, despite a lull in the National Hockey League, the San Jose Sharks announced they’re parting company with veteran winger Jeff Skinner. The team put him on unconditional waivers in order to terminate the contract he has with the club. If he clears waivers on Tuesday, then he becomes an unrestricted free agent and is eligible to sign with whoever he pleases. The question then would be if Skinner would be a fit for the Flyers down the stretch. Skinner signed a one-year deal with Ed...
The NFC West loses more than its fair share of assistant coaches every year to other teams. The Los Angeles Rams watched Mike LaFleur leave to join the division rival Arizona Cardinals. Klint Kubiak of the Seahawks and Robert Saleh of the 49ers also earned head coaching jobs. But LaFleur wasn’t the only coach poached […]
