Latest blog entries from Boston teams across every league
#1 – The Celtics finally won the rebound battle It’s not sexy, but that’s how you win games when you’re lacking talent. Joe Mazzulla’s men went after the offensive boards way more than usual this season:▷ Against the 76ers: 26.5% Offensive Rebound Rate▷ At New York: 20.4% Offensive Rebound Rate▷ At Detroit: 30.9% Offensive Rebound […]
By the time he was named player-manager of the Cincinnati Reds in 1984, Pete Rose was the proud owner of three World Series rings, 16 All-Star selections, and more than 4,000 hits. Yet, at the same time, Rose was — in his own words — “pushing toward disaster.” You know the rest of the story. […]
The New England Patriots’ running game has quietly begun to build some momentum. After gaining 177 non-kneel-down yards in Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans, the unit finished its Week 8 contest versus the Cleveland Browns with a season-best 180 yards on the ground. A significant portion of that yardage was produced by TreVeyon Henderson. […]
2025 was a strange year for Nathaniel Lowe. He was coming off 4 straight years averaging 2.8 bWAR per season with a .274/.359./.432 batting line. He was joining a new team — the Washington Nationals — who many believed to be something of a sleeper in the National League with young stars James Wood and […]

The Buffalo Bills convincingly beat the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, keeping pace in the AFC playoff races. The New England Patriots also won, so the Bills stay a half-game behind the New England Patriots in the AFC East. The Indianapolis Colts face the Tennessee Titans in a late-afternoon game on Sunday. Indy leads the AFC […]
A short trip to the blue medical tent following a scramble in Tennessee led to the buzzword around Patriots quarterback Drake Maye being “sliding” last week. While New England certainly needs their MVP candidate and franchise quarterback healthy, the dual-threat nature of Maye’s game is going to result in him taking hits at times. The […]
NEW ORLEANS — Jaylen Brown grinned ear-to-ear as the final buzzer neared, the first Celtics win of the season just moments away. “It feels great to get the first one,” Brown said postgame, hardly supressing a smile. “Feels awesome, actually.” Brown is typically among the Celtics’ least expressive players postgame, regardless of the final score. […]
The Cleveland Browns’ defense was fired up in the first half. Myles Garrett came up with two sacks that stopped touchdown drives and forced field goals. Carson Schwesinger had an interception that set the offense up in field goal range. That resulted in no points, and despite Garrett’s 5-sack performance, the Browns were somehow blown […]
The New England Patriots have a lot to feel good about coming out of their win over the Cleveland Browns, including that they are trending in the right direction health-wise. After only having to rule out one player — safety Kyle Dugger (knee) — for medical reasons, they also did not appear to suffer any […]
Just the facts Know your enemy Game notes
The Cleveland Browns’ offense under Dillon Gabriel is stuck in a spot where they can only seem to manage about 200 yards of offense. It’s crazy that even the Jets were able to manage 500+ yards of offense this week; can you fathom a Gabriel-led offense doing that? The Browns were hopeless on third down […]
Even at 6-2, the New England Patriots keep looking at potential ways to improve their depth. As part of this process, they had seven free agents in town for workouts on Monday. Running backs Rushawn Baker, Jonathan Ward and Jordan Waters, wide receivers Eli Pancol and Roc Taylor, and cornerbacks Jalen Kimber and Joshua Pickett […]
The Islanders continue what becomes a very busy road trip tonight in Boston, where the Bruins are coming home after being thumped in Ottawa. So the back-to-back, the special opportunity and road trip narratives are all in play. (The Isles have a back-to-back later in the week vs. the Canes and Caps.) First Islanders Goal […]
The New England Patriots have not been in the playoffs since the 2021 season, but their drought could be nearing its end. Winning a fifth straight game on Sunday versus the Cleveland Browns to improve to 6-2 on the year, the club of first-year head coach Mike Vrabel remains in the No. 2 seed in […]
Three times, the Celtics fought and fell short of their first win of the 2025-26 season, with each loss defined by the same problem: an inability to rebound. On Monday night against the Pelicans, they turned to fourth-year forward Josh Minott for his first career NBA start. That decision paid off tremendously. Minott joined Neemias […]

The Sens just cannot stop scoring goals
Coming off a 119-113 loss to the Pistons on Sunday, the Celtics (1-3) finished off a road back-to-back with their first win of the season in a 122-90 final against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Celtics ran out a starting five of Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, Jaylen Brown, Josh Minott and Neemias Queta. Earlier in […]
The New England Patriots headed into their Week 8 game against the Cleveland Browns as a touchdown favorite, but early on it appeared they were in for a dog fight. The first half was a struggle, particularly on the offensive side of the ball against a disruptive defense ranked among the best in football. And […]
The New England Patriots took care of business in Week 8, beating the visiting Cleveland Browns with a final score of 32-13 to improve to 6-2 on the year. That game was one of 13 played across the league this weekend. Here is who Patriots fans should root for in the other 12. Monday 8:15 […]
It’s Game 3 of the World Series, or as I like to call it, the “World Serious.” Max Scherzer pitches for the Jays. Someone not named Max Scherzer pitches for the Dodgers. Talk about it here.
The final standard elevation is now in the rearview for Terrell Jennings. A move to the 53-man roster of the New England Patriots is ahead. It just didn’t become official to begin the week. The running back reverted to the practice squad along with safety Richie Grant, a recent signing, on Monday. Both served as […]
Welcome to Monday evening, folks! The last one in October, too. November looms. Get your cranberry sauce in order. Anyways, the Bruins will both start and end a brief road trip tonight with a match-up against the Senators. I don’t know if it’s even a road trip if it’s just one game. Maybe a road […]
