The Denver Broncos have won eight straight games on the back of an elite defense. The team finds success because they get after the quarterback often. Their 49 sacks are the most in the league, 15 more than the second-place team. At this rate, the team is on pace to break the single-season sack record […]

The Buffalo Bills are infamously 0-4 in the Super Bowl. They lost back-to-back-to-back-to-back championships in the early ’90s, and they haven’t gotten back to the big dance ever since. The Josh Allen-led Bills have been Super Bowl contenders for quite some time now, but Buffalo has fallen just short for years, as they haven’t been […]

One could infer that the Chicago Bears are one of the best teams in the NFL when just looking at their record. After a win over the Minnesota Vikings, the team is 7-3. Week 11 isn’t over, but as of now, they are atop the NFC North. The team’s point differential tells a different story, […]

The Los Angeles Dodgers just won the World Series for the second year in a row. That won’t stop the team from adding talent to the roster, though. With a seemingly unlimited payroll, the Dodgers have been adding all of the best talent in free agency and through the trade market over the last couple […]

Basketball is a star-driven sport. A lot of the best players in the NBA have been doing their thing for quite some time now. LeBron James, for example, has been in the NBA for a record 23 seasons. Despite the presence of proven stars, talent emerges out of nowhere every season. During the early part […]

With the NBA season comes expectations and predictions from the fanbases. The sport always draws tons of dialogue when it comes to player rankings, record predictions, and hot takes. Not every player is going to live up to expectations, though. For whatever reason, whether it is because of a poor schematic fit, injury issues, or […]

The Houston Astros lost a lot of talent last offseason. They’d made it to at least the ALCS in seven of the previous eight seasons before missing the postseason altogether in 2025. Alex Bregman, Justin Verlander, and Kyle Tucker were the biggest offseason departures, and the loss of this star talent directly contributed to a […]

The Sacramento Kings might already gearing up for a big rebuild. The big three that features Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine, and DeMar DeRozan is somewhat predictably not working. LaVine and DeRozan didn’t work as a duo with the Chicago Bulls, and Sabonis is having a down season thus far. Still, the big man is likely […]

The NBA record for wins in a regular season was set by the Golden State Warriors. In 2015-16, the team defeated their opponents 73 times in the regular season. Of course, they’d go on to lose an iconic NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers, so some say it was all for nothing. Winning that many […]

The Indiana Pacers were just one win away from being crowned NBA champions last season. They put everything on the line to get to where they did, and that included pushing Tyrese Haliburton past his breaking point. Unfortunately, the All-Star point guard tore his Achilles tendon in Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The […]

Kyle Tucker had a productive first season with the Chicago Cubs, but now it seems like he may be suiting up for somebody else in 2026. The outfielder with four All-Star nods to his name is one of the best free agents this year. The Cubs certainly want him back, but in recent years, the […]

Kyrie Irving once said that “basketball isn’t a game; it’s an art form.” This belief obviously demonstrates how players operate on the court, but it goes even deeper, as NBA players need to look the part. This extends to the apparel they wear on the court. The NBA has officially released the City Edition jerseys […]

The MLB offseason is officially here. Free agency has already kicked off, but few deals have been agreed to thus far, and most of the big-name players on the open market won’t sign until later in the year or even next year. Free agent signings aren’t the only way for teams to add to their […]

The MLB offseason is here. There are several great free agents who are free to sign with any team. The Los Angeles Dodgers proved that offseason talent acquisition is of the utmost importance, as they’ve won back-to-back World Series titles after being huge free agent spenders. Most teams don’t have the payroll power of the […]

The Toronto Blue Jays were just a win away from being crowned World Series champions. Bo Bichette played a huge part in getting the team there. He was among the hits leaders all season long before a PCL injury forced him out of action late in the season. Bichette showed true guts by rushing back […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars made one of the biggest deals of the 2025 NFL trade deadline. They gave up fourth and sixth-round picks to the Las Vegas Raiders for Jakobi Meyers in one of the biggest deals of deadline day. The receiver was one of the best trade candidates available, and he now brings a big […]

The Kansas City Chiefs did not get in on the NFL trade deadline action. The team still looks like Super Bowl contenders, but they have fewer wins this season than fans have become accustomed to. Perhaps the Chiefs didn’t make a move because the market was inflated during a year in which a record-tying 10 […]

The Miami Dolphins got in on the action of what was the busiest NFL trade deadline ever. Ten trades were agreed to on Nov. 4, which tied the all-time record. That included the Dolphins’ trade of Jaelan Phillips to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Dolphins received a third-round pick in return for the former first-round edge […]

The 2025 NFL Draft deadline was tied for the busiest deadline day ever. A record-tying 10 trades were agreed upon. Some were big, such as separate deals involving Quinnen Williams and Sauce Gardner, while others were relatively small. The Denver Broncos did not get in on the action, though. The 7-2 team was in a […]

The NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award has a clear frontrunner, as Jaxson Dart is playing like by far the best first-year player, and he is doing it at the most important position in football. There are plenty of other first-year offensive players making a name for themselves, though, including Emeka Egbuka, Tyler Warren, […]

The NFL season is nine weeks old, meaning the halfway point of the regular season has officially passed. A year after tons of receivers, quarterbacks, and running backs broke onto the scene as rookies, NFL fans were again blessed with a stacked crop of first-year players, especially when it comes to the offensive side of […]

The 2025 NFL trade deadline was absolutely wild. With 10 deals agreed upon on Nov. 4, this was tied for the most active trade deadline in history. A lot of the big-name players who were moved were defensive players, such as Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams. Obviously, those moves don’t have a huge impact on […]

The 2025 NFL trade deadline was arguably the most hectic ever. Ten deals were agreed upon on Nov. 4, which ties the most (with 2022) on deadline day this century. These deals included some huge-name superstars and a number of premier draft picks. So, of the 10 trade deadline trades, which deals will have the […]

The MLB free agency signing period will begin on Nov. 6 at 5 p.m. ET. There are some big-name players set to hit the open market, and with all of the record-breaking contracts that have been handed out in recent years, some huge deals will surely be agreed upon. This is especially true because the […]

The World Series has come and gone, so players with expiring contracts are officially free agents. The MLB free agent signing period starts on Nov. 6 at 5 p.m. ET. Some big-name players will be plucked off the market right away, but there will be plenty of great players who don’t sign until deep into […]

The 2025-26 men’s college basketball season officially tips off on Monday, Nov. 3. Anticipation is high after a thrilling March Madness tournament last season. Plus, NIL and the transfer portal bring a whole new twist to the college basketball landscape. Elite players are playing on new teams, both after transferring and because the freshman class […]

The 2025 World Series concluded in epic fashion, which has many MLB fans considering it one of the greatest World Series matchups ever. The Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays put on an absolute show, which included multiple extra-inning thrillers, numerous broken records, and a bunch of iconic moments and performances. This was the […]

The Toronto Blue Jays are not historically one of the powerhouses in MLB. Their two World Series victories came in back-to-back seasons in 1992 and 1993. After winning their two titles, they missed the postseason in its entirety 21 straight times. Despite residing in Canada, they were America’s team during the 2025 World Series, though. […]

There were some massive trades during the NFL offseason. Micah Parsons, DK Metcalf, George Pickens, Geno Smith, Deebo Samuel, and Jalen Ramsey were all moved before the start of the season. So far in the days and weeks leading up to the NFL trade deadline, the agreed-upon deals have been relatively small. That could change […]

The NFL Defensive Player of the Year award was in a weird place heading into the 2025 season. Last year, a cornerback won the award for just the third time this century. A lot of the best defensive players in the NFL were in unique situations, too, whether that meant they’d be playing for a […]

The NFL MVP race is heating up. With the season about to surpass the halfway mark, it is becoming clearer who is and isn’t in the running to be named the best football player in 2025. There is still a lot of football left, but check out the gallery to see the top-five MVP front-runners. […]

The NFL trade deadline is at 4 p.m. ET on Nov. 4. Every fan thinks that there are no-brainer moves that their favorite teams should make. Unfortunately, the NFL trade deadline isn’t like the NBA trade deadline, and the days and hours leading up to deadline day are often relatively quiet. Superstar trades, in particular, […]

Some player-team fits in the NFL seem too perfect to be true, but a lot of these fits can’t be made a reality without a trade. Luckily, the NFL trade deadline is right around the corner. Teams are already wheeling and dealing, but the action will only pick up in the days and hours leading […]

Whether an NFL team is looking to sell or buy at the NFL trade deadline, everybody has needs and weaknesses. A team’s positional needs can stem from injuries, a lack of depth, or from the absence of star talent on the roster. Needs can also be both short-term and/or long-term. Whatever the case is, every […]

A lot of records were tied or broken in Game 3 of the 2025 World Series. For example, Shohei Ohtani got on base a postseason record nine times, which included two home runs and four times being intentionally walked. However, what stood out the most about the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Toronto Blue Jays game […]

The Kansas City Chiefs have made five of the last six Super Bowls. Nobody would be surprised if they were crowned champions yet again at season’s end, but they may need to add some talent in order to again hoist the Lombardi Trophy. Many of their flaws were exposed in the Super Bowl last year, […]

The NFL trade deadline is on November 4. Some teams will be deadline buyers, while others will be sellers. One thing is for sure, though, and that is that there is a lot of talent on the trading block this season. The receiver position, in particular, is stacked with players who could be moved this […]

The 2025 NFL trade deadline is on Nov. 4 at 4 p.m. ET. Some teams that perform well seemingly every year are once again thriving, while other teams have come out of nowhere to produce a solid record. Other teams have struggled, either predictably so or by being one of the NFL’s biggest disappointments. Because […]

The 2025 MLB postseason has been electric, and it has culminated in a World Series showdown between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays. It truly is a battle of the “world,” as both teams are littered with superstars from all over planet Earth, and the two teams even play their home games in […]
