The 2026 NBA Draft Lottery is the latest example of big stuff happening with the Washington Wizards when I’m traveling or heavily scheduled and unable to write or talk about the news. If I’m on an airplane, you can count on the Wizards making a trade or getting a piece of major news. It feels […]

The NFL schedule is now official, and we know the who, what, where, and when for most all 17 games the Washington Commanders will play this season.

It’s no secret that Harry Ford’s start to the 2026 season was less than ideal. Acquired this offseason from the Seattle Mariners for Jose A. Ferrer, many expected Ford to step in day one and be the Nationals’ starting catcher, but the Nats front office felt he could benefit from some time in Triple A […]
The Washington Commanders are reportedly opening up the 2026-27 season with a road game against their division rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles. Jayden Daniels’ third NFL season starts with Washington as road underdogs against last season’s division winner. The Commanders are coming off a disappointing 5-12 season, while the Eagles were eliminated at home in the […]

The Washington Wizards hold the No. 1 pick and have no obligation to the Utah Jazz amid AJ Dybantsa sweepstakes.
The Utah Jazz are looking to trade up to the No. 1 draft position up from No. 2 in the 2026 NBA Draft. And former Brigham Young star AJ Dybantsa is also open to staying in Utah, according to Sam Quinn of CBS Sports. Here is the “money quote.” CBS Sports’ Adam Finkelstein reported this week […]
The Philadelphia Eagles will begin their 2026 schedule at Lincoln Financial Field with a Week 1 home game against the Washington Commanders, according to a report from @OzzyNFL. Kickoff is said to be set for 4:25 PM Eastern. This marks just the second time since the Nick Sirianni era began in 2021 that the Birds […]
Well then. The Cincinnati Reds have fumbled the first two games of this series away, the Washington Nationals being perfectly positioned to recover them. So, once again, the Reds will turn to young Chase Burns needing him to perform a miracle just to rescue them from worst-case scenario. After Wednesday’s blown 5-run lead and debacle […]
Last night, the Washington Nationals showed just how exciting they can be. They erased a 5-0 first inning deficit, and came back to win 8-7 in extra innings. It was a crazy and emotional game where the boys rose to the occasion. They also wore their hearts on their sleeves, which I love to see, […]
Assuming the Washington Wizards decide to take BYU star AJ Dybantsa with the number-one pick -- because honestly, who wouldn't -- this potential NBA superstar could have his development severely stunted thanks to one man. Trae Young. Trae Young's value bo
For the third time in four years, the Indianapolis Colts will travel a long way from Lucas Oil Stadium as they are slated to face off against the Washington Commanders in London for their Week 4 matchup on October 4th. It took them ten weeks before traveling to Berlin, Germany last year, so this contest […]
The Washington Wizards will select first in the 2026 NBA Draft but not before proving the NBA wrong.
The Commanders have made great efforts to upgrade the defensive front seven this offseason in free agency and the draft. Compared to the massive investment directed toward those position groups, relatively little was done to address the roster deficiencies in the secondary, and the cornerback room, in particular. Prior to free agency, I published an […]
Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson destroyed a ball for a grand slam in the Bottom of the 1st inning tonight in Great American Ball Park, the blast giving the Reds an early 5-0 lead. This, of course, came just a day after they were run ragged by a rebuilding Washington Nationals club 10-4 in the […]
Cincinnati Reds lefty Nick Lodolo is back on the mound for his second start of the 2026 season after blisters cost him the entirety of the month of April. He’ll face the Washington Nationals, who pummelled Reds pitching for six homers in the series opener on Tuesday in Great American Ball Park. The Reds will […]
The Nats won the first game of the series emphatically in Cincinnati. They hit a whopping six home runs in the 10-4 blow out win. Now, they will look to follow that up with another strong performance to claim a series win. Hopefully they do not drop the ball like they did in Miami. With […]
We’ll learn when the Commanders will play their 2026 season slate when the NFL schedule is formally released on Thursday evening. We’ve known which teams the Commanders will play for months. That part was solidified shortly after the season, locking that down based on Washington’s place in the standings. That also sets up what’s known as strength of schedule, the […]
The Nationals have been a surprisingly fun team to watch so far in 2026. As we have documented, the offense has been absolutely electric and the pitching staff has stabilized after a rough start to the season. However, the defense has been very rough, and it is showing no signs of improvement. Even in last […]
