Trevor Bauer’s situation with the Los Angeles Dodgers flew under the radar last season amidst their playoff push.

Tua Tagovailoa’s future in the NFL is now in serious doubt after having his third concussion this season. The Miami Dolphins QB has been ridiculously unlucky this season with the number of heavy blows to the head he’s taken. With all the talk about the potential end of his career, Tua Tagovailoa’s brother Taulia weighed […]

Nikola Jokic is a one-of-a-kind player. He’s one of the few players in the league who is legitimately worth building a team around because of his transcendent skill set. The Denver Nuggets realize this and have made moves to improve Jokic’s supporting cast, but there is more work to be done. The Nuggets’ goals for […]

Geno Smith is having an excellent individual season as the Seattle Seahawks’ starting QB.

The AFC South is a complete and utter mess this season.

Well, ain’t that surprising? A couple of years after requesting a trade, James Harden is reportedly considering a return to the Houston Rockets in free agency. The rumblings began last week, with ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski then blowing it up on Christmas. It’s certainly an intriguing idea, bringing back the former hero of the franchise for one […]

With a win in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons, the Baltimore Ravens have clinched a playoff spot even without Lamar Jackson.

Baker Mayfield was enjoying a nice, well-deserved post-game interview at SoFi Stadium. He just led the Los Angeles Rams to a convincing 51-14 win over the Denver Broncos, after all.

After a sudden burst of life, the Los Angeles Lakers have struggled to win games again this season. Losing Anthony Davis indefinitely has hurt the team the way most expect.

The Boston Red Sox are off to a rough start in the MLB offseason this year. They have already lost two of their best players in Xander Bogaerts and JD Martinez, both of which signed deals with new teams. They were able to snag one Justin Turner, at the very least. However, teams are already […]

Stephen Curry caught his white whale last June, when he won his first Finals MVP for the Golden State Warriors.

After a failed physical with the San Francisco Giants, the one-time World Series champ was supposed to go to Queens. However, in a not-so-shocking […]

DK Metcalf is a certified freak of nature. The Seattle Seahawks star wide receiver possesses a rare combination of speed, height, and power that is rarely seen in the NFL.

The Pro Bowl is perhaps one of the achievements that NFL players tend to look forward to.

The Los Angeles Rams have one of the worst Super Bowl hangover cases of all-time. Their 2022 team looks nothing like the reigning champions that won it all last season.

The New England Patriots’ offense has been a complete dumpster fire this season.

The results have been atrocious at times, and fans and players have expressed their frustrations. An old friend […]

On Friday night, Minnesota police reported that a shooting incident took place inside the Mall of America. The incident stemmed from a disagreement between two groups.

Scottie Barnes is having a sophomore season to forget for the Toronto Raptors. After a stellar first season, expectations for the reigning Rookie of the Year were sky-high.

The Baltimore Ravens are facing a serious Lamar Jackson problem in the offseason. If you recall, Jackson turned down a massive offer from the team in the offseason, making him a free agent in 2023.

Don’t look now, but Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars are coming alive at the right time.
