Today marks the beginning of MLB’s 2026 international prospects signing period, as all 30 teams can now freely vie for the top amateur talent across the globe. Of course, verbal agreements with a number of prospects have likely already been reached, so even as the period only just opens on January 15th, we’re likely to […]
The Edmonton Oilers have a problem. They’re pressed up tight to the salary cap, and while they’ve been able to manoeuvre by activating Jake Walman and Tristan Jarry from the Long-Term Injured Reserve by placing an injured Adam Henrique there, they won’t be able to do that forever. In fact, when the time comes to…
Kris Knoblauch chose Connor Ingram over Calvin Pickard for tonight’s game, and the message is becoming clearer: Ingram’s earned his spot, at least for now. We all know the Edmonton Oilers can only carry three goaltenders for so long before someone has to head to Bakersfield. Tonight, the only place Pickard is going is the…
From morning till night Thursday, one NBA reporter after another rubbished the idea that the Brooklyn Nets and Golden State Warriors have had any talks related to a trade involving Michael Porter Jr. In tweets, reports, podcasts, etc. reporters said the heavily rumored pairing was simply not real. The parade of dismissals began with Shams […]
The Giants are historically inept, especially in recent years, but it seems they finally made a good decision and have landed John Harbaugh as their next head coach. Terms of a deal are still being ironed out, but initial expectations will keep Harbaugh in New York for five years and nearly $100 million. Harbaugh is […]
The Long Island Nets returned to the court on Wednesday for a showdown with the Capital City Go-Go in Washington, D.C. This game marked the return of Brooklyn two-way player EJ Liddell, who missed the last three games due to a knee injury. Liddell, a 6’7” 23-year-old forward, notched 17 points in 24 minutes his […]
I know the New Jersey Devils most recent stretch has led to a lot of doom and gloom, both here and in other Devils-centric circles around the internet. It’s merited when you consider the expectations for the team versus the results so far. At the same time, I understand the voices that are tired of […]
This is the second straight time the Edmonton Oilers host a team that just lost to the Winnipeg Jets. The New York Islanders make their annual pilgrimage to Edmonton following a 5-4 loss, as they glide across the continent on a season-long road trip. The group upfront took the blame, despite coming back from three…
There’s a disgracefully long list of reasons the Red Sox lost Game 2 of last year’s Wild Card series to the Yankees, and I don’t think any of them are brought up enough. Ceddanne Rafaela tried to get a bunt down twice on a pair of pitches that were each about a foot outside of […]
After four straight World Series appearances, the New York Yankees fell to the Anaheim Angels in the 2002 ALDS, a disappointing end to the season for a team that had won 103 games. Eager to get back on top of the Junior Circuit, George Steinbrenner entered the 2002-03 offseason with a large pile of money […]
Well, one of the nearly endless head coach opportunities is reportedly off the books. Adam Schefter is reporting that though ink has not not been put to paper, the New York Giants and John Harbaugh are in agreement. All expectations are that the Man Without A Job for roughly 192 hours has found a new […]
Knicks fans often proudly claim, “once a Knick, always a Knick”, and that mindset makes almost every former player feel like an important part of a family. Now, that family has seemed dysfunctional at times, and has caused fans a lot of disappointment, pain, and frustration. But like a real family, many members of that […]

At the moment there are nine head coach openings in the NFL and one of them is within the NFC East at the New York Giants. Obviously we have a level of interest in what the Giants do as Dallas Cowboys fans given that there are two games the team plays against them every year. […]
Now that we’re full-on into the playoffs, it’s time to stop looking in the rearview with our Secret Superstars series, and start looking forward to the next game with postseason X-Factors. The principle is the same — using game tape and metrics to uncover those hidden gems for every team who are primed to bring […]
Four goals, no win, and no answers—just draft math, trade deadline thoughts, and growing doubts about J.T. Miller.
The New York Knicks (25*–15) visit the Golden State Warriors (22–19, eighth in the West) tonight at Chase Center in San Francisco. This cross-conference matchup pairs a stumbling team that can occasionally be great against a Warriors team that has steadied itself behind veteran leadership and a strong home-court energy. Stay up late with us […]
It seems all great, young teams need that one guy who’s been through it before. We just saw the Toronto Blue Jays on a World Series chase with Max Scherzer holding court in the dugout every night, and for the 2017 Baby Bomber Yankee team, that man was Matt Holliday… or at least he was […]
The Rangers are toast, the locker room feels hollow, and patience is officially gone. Joe and Eric argue about blame, leadership, and what burning it down really means.
MASN announced today that it will broadcast a record 20 spring training games this year, beginning February 20 against the Yankees at Ed Smith Stadium. That’s more than double the eight games aired last season, and it means Orioles fans will get an extended look at the organization’s next wave of talent earlier than expected. […]
When Quinn Hughes was in talks to be traded from the Vancouver Canucks , there wasn't just one or two teams, Minnesota Wild and New Jersey Devils , that he would have liked to go to. At the very least, there was another, the Detroit Red Wings, that the star defenseman would have also been happy playing for until his contract is up. Elliotte Friedman said, "Hughes wanted to go to the Red Wings. They were one of the teams he was very interested in, but Steve Yzerman wasn't doing that without an ...
From Gretzky banners to Olympic roster myths, the Ombudsman is back to clean up another week of podcast inaccuracies.
Meet the Mets The Mets have reportedly upped their offer to four years for All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker. Mark your calendars! Mets pitchers and catchers report on February 11, which means we are less than a month away from the return of baseball. What can be expected out of the Mets’ talented trio of young […]
The Miami Dolphins were interested in John Harbaugh — but John Harbaugh was not interested in the Miami Dolphins. Late on Wednesday night, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that former longtime Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh and the New York Giants were working towards finalizing a deal that would bring the Super Bowl winning […]
