Red Sox begin offseason with Nate Eaton trade as Gray, Whitlock decisions await
The 2026 Major League Baseball season officially came to an end Wednesday night, with the Milwaukee Brewers capturing their first World Series championship in franchise history after defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in five games.

Haggerty: Bruins come up short measuring vs champs

Simone: The Celtics have to win ugly, and Jayson Tatum is how
Just 24 hours removed from a blowout win over the Chicago Bulls, the Boston Celtics were thrown into the fire. Well, perhaps thrown into isn't a fair analysis. They ignited the flame, and their coattails got stuck in the coals. They did it to themselves.
BSJ Game Report: Celtics 125, Nets 124 - Tatum helps Boston scrape by

Giardi: Mike's Musings gets a league-wide view of the Patriots through 7 weeks

Simone: Foul-drawing is a Celtics defensive tool that's flying under the radar
There has been plenty to talk about through the first few games of the Boston Celtics' season. A disappointing loss to the Detroit Pistons on Opening Day. A big-time bounce-back win over the New York Knicks. And on Monday, a blowout win over the Chicago Bulls.
BSJ Game Report: Celtics 134, Bulls 99 - Pritchard leads Boston blowout

Bedard's Breakdown: With Maye impressing vs. Bears, maybe Patriots defense is the schedule merchant now
Williams posted a +0.32 EPA per dropback when the Patriots blitzed him. For context, it was the second-best EPA/DB performance by an NFL QB this season in a game where the opponent blitzed at least 50% of dropbacks. Michael Penix, in the Falcons' Monday Night Massacre of the Saints, was the only one better (9 of 12, 147 yards, 1 TD, 1 sack, 143.4 rating).

If you didn’t come away from this game and think we were watching the future of the quarterback position, we can’t be friends.
Simone: This is the Jayson Tatum the Celtics need
Talk is cheap. No matter how you look at it. Jayson Tatum wasn't good enough against the Detroit Pistons. Nothing he could have said after the game would have changed that. And social media was set ablaze.
BSJ Game Report: Celtics 107, Knicks 103 - Tatum takeover
