Houston holds the head-to-head tiebreaker over Texas, so the AL West champion won’t be decided until Sunday....

We’re down to our final two games of Athletics baseball this year!

The Bills’ offense hummed along during a 2-0 start, but the unit may go without a couple of key receivers in Week 3. D.J. Moore (shoulder) and Keon Coleman (ankle), who are listed as questionable, are truly “50/50” to face the winless Chargers on Sunday, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. Moore, the Bills’ biggest offseason addition, made an immediate impact in their 36-31 win over the Texans in Week 1. Along with catching five balls for 100 yards and a touchdown, Moore drew a 46-yard ...

Getty Images The 2005 San Diego Padres can pop champagne. They no longer hold the distinction of being MLB’s worst-ever division winner in a full season. The Houston Astros (ATH 6, HOU 5) and Texas Rangers (MIN 10, TEX 2) both lost Friday night and fell to 79-81. This year’s AL West winner will have a worse record than those 2005 Padres, who won the NL West with an 82-80 record. “Two games left,” Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said on Friday (via MLB.com). “We’ll obviously be scoreboard watchi...

Flawed analogy: An NBA team is like a video game build. Each team has attributes, and each team has to choose which attributes to prioritize. Although that’s where the flaws in the analogy begin. In most video games, the limitations on attribute distribution are stricter. It’s typically smart to punt on strength entirely if your […]
This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans to pinpoint the team’s biggest weakness against top teams. Nearly half of respondents said the pass rush.
