WHAT. A. WIN! The New Orleans Pelicans came out victorious against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night, but it wasn’t without drama. Zion Williamson’s spectacular end-of-game dunk rubbed Phoenix players the wrong way. The result was a little altercation between the two teams after the game’s conclusion. One of the stars for the Pelicans also […]

Trevor Lawrence’s second season with the Jacksonville Jaguars has been an up-and-down ride so far. There are times where the Clemson product lives up to the hype he garnered before the draft. However, he’ll also have moments where he’ll seemingly disappear and fail to take over games. Now, he’s dealing with a toe injury that […]

New week, same old problems for the Las Vegas Raiders. After two big wins in the last two weeks, there was hope that this team finally found the winning formula to salvage this season.

The Boston Celtics are dominating the NBA scene today. After falling short in the NBA Finals last season, the men in green have come back stronger than ever before.

Odell Beckham Jr’s free agency tour has many fanbases at the edge of their seat. Teams like the Buffalo Bills and Dallas Cowboys are waiting to see who the star wide receiver picks as his new team. OBJ has completed his visits to the teams he’s interested in, and is now mulling on who he […]

The Los Angeles Dodgers already lost a big piece early in the NFL offseason, as Trea Turner departed for the Philadelphia Phillies. The star shortstop was sought-after by many teams, but in the end, he decided to spurn LA for Philly. Now, another member of their infield is being poached by rival teams: Justin Turner. […]

Marvin Harrison Jr’s ascent to greatness has been a welcome surprise for the Ohio State football fanbase. The wide receiver has filled in nicely for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, helping the Buckeyes offense stay potent despite the latter’s absence. Unfortunately, Harrison Jr. lost out on the Biletnikoff award to another monster WR in Tennessee’s Jalin Hyatt. This […]

Well, that’s one way to make an awesome debut. In his first game for the Los Angeles Rams, Baker Mayfield saved them from certain with his clutch heroics against the Las Vegas Raiders. Mayfield led the defending champs on a 98-yard game-winning drive to keep LA’s playoff hopes alive and well. Baker Mayfield and the […]

Don’t look now, but Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions are roaring their way back into playoff contention. It seemed as if their postseason dreams died the moment they hit a 1-6 record. Since then, though, Detroit has won four of their five games, putting them squarely in contention for a potential Wild Card spot […]

In a not-so-shocking turn of events, Baker Mayfield has been released by the Carolina Panthers. The quarterback has struggled to find consistent production with his new team, yes. However, it’s still a bit surprising for a team to cut bait with a player they traded for before the season started. As you can expect, everyone […]

When the Dallas Cowboys offense took the field for the first time in Week 13, fans noticed a noticeable absence: Ezekiel Elliott. For the longest time, Zeke has been the starter for the team through thick and thin. That’s why it was surprising that Tony Pollard started over Elliott, especially considering Jerry Jones’ hard stance […]

The Kansas City Chiefs had every opportunity to win their Week 13 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. After a touchdown drive by Cincy, Patrick Mahomes drove the offense to their opponent’s 40-yard line. Facing a 4th-and-5 situation, Andy Reid elected to try a 55-yard FG by Harrison Butker. Shortly after, Mahomes was seen slamming his […]

Mayfield was traded to the team during the offseason, but he struggled mightily for the team when he started for them. Sources: The #Panthers are expected to release QB […]

It’s not everyday that the reigning “Mr. Irrelevant” will get to start for an NFL team, but here we are. After Jimmy Garoppolo’s season ended with a foot injury, the San Francisco 49ers are turning to Brock Purdy to lead the team. Purdy was the final pick of the 2022 draft, and is the third-string […]

A week ago, everyone in the Super Smash Brothers community expressed their outrage against Panda Gaming and Nintendo. This backlash came after it was announced that the Smash World Tour was cancelled. In their announcement post, the SWT organizers claimed that Panda Gaming CEO Alan “Dr.Alan” Bunney tried to coerce tournament organizers to join his […]

The New England Patriots have been a bit… unremarkable this season. Their offense, in particular, ranges from uninspiring to rage-inducing from week to week. Head coach Bill Belichick and coordinator Matt Patricia has caught a lot of flak for the way they have run the New England offense. Now, a certain Hall of Fame QB […]

The Cincinnati Bengals have gotten by over the last few weeks without two of their key weapons on offense. Ja’Marr Chase and Joe Mixon have been absent in their last two games, leaving their offense a bit hindered. Against the Kansas City Chiefs, though, many fans hoped that both of these players would return to […]

Deshaun Watson will be making his 2022 season debut for the Cleveland Browns against the Houston Texans on the road.

The Aaron Judge sweepstakes is nearing a conclusion, and two teams are currently ahead of the competition: the New York Yankees and the San Francisco Giants. Both teams are willing to spend big in order to acquire the star outfielder. Despite the hometown advantage for the Giants, there’s one concept that could keep Judge in […]

Saturday night’s game between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets saw a rather bizarre achievement from an unlikely sniper. After making his lone triple of the game, Draymond Green has eclipsed Michael Jordan’s career three-point makes. Many found this hilarious, considering Green’s reputation as a god-awful shooter from the outside. When Warriors head […]

Chase Young’s return date for the Washington Commanders has been set, and it’s against the New York Giants. However… it won’t be their Week 13 matchup against the G-Men.

Many people dream of being a majority owner of an NBA team. After all, wouldn’t it be cool for you to have control of one of teams on one of the biggest leagues in the world? It seems like Floyd Mayweather Jr. had this idea too, as he revealed that he has made an offer […]

The SEC Championship Game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the LSU Tigers was uneventful for the most part. The top-seeded Georgia football team rolled past LSU to clinch the championship. However, a late-game decision by head coach Kirby Smart seemed to add unnecessary drama to a game that was relatively drama-free. With Georgia’s football team […]

Prior to the start of this season, Jimmy Garoppolo was all but expected to leave the San Francisco 49ers at some point. The veteran quarterback was going to make way for Trey Lance, after all. In a stunning turn of events, though, Garoppolo returned to San Francisco… and eventually became their starter again. Now, it […]

Deshaun Watson is set to make his debut for the Cleveland Browns this season in Week 13. The controversial quarterback’s suspension is now over, and the stage is set for his return to action.

The San Francisco 49ers’ offense might be missing their best wide receiver for Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins.

The Baltimore Orioles were one of the pleasant surprises of the 2022 MLB season. After their disastrous 2021 campaign, the team bounced back in a big way in 2022.

The Michigan Spartans are well on their way to the College Football Playoffs, but they lost one of their best players in the process. Blake Corum, the team’s star running back, has now been ruled out for the rest of the season due to an injury. It’s a brutal blow to a team that has […]

After a rough start to the season, the Golden State Warriors are starting to find their groove again. Wins over some of the better teams in the league this season have pulled them back above .500.

Friday night saw a preview of what the Los Angeles Lakers are truly capable of if things are going right. Against the red-hot Milwaukee Bucks, many expected this team to, well, lose quite easily. Instead, though, LA’s Big 3 came through for them, as LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, and Anthony Davis all did their part […]

Luka Doncic’s carry job with the Dallas Mavericks has been absolutely insane to watch this season. The offense runs through Doncic alone, and without him, it seems like the operation completely fails. The fans have started to get more and more frustrated with Dallas’ supporting cast, and the star has also shown the same frustration. […]

The Buckeyes are alive! Heading into the final week of the college football season, Ohio State’s playoff hopes were dying. They were ranked fifth in the country, just below USC.

It’s never too late for a massive shakeup in the college football world. As the 2022 season is coming to a close, the Utah football team found a way to deliver one more shocker to their rivals USC. A 47 – 24 decimation of the Trojans might have cost USC a spot at the College […]

Sunday night will be a bit of a special occasion for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown. That’s because this will be the first time he will return to Tennessee since his trade from the Titans. It will be a big night for Brown, who was drafted by the Titans in the second round back […]
