The Dallas Cowboys have seemingly validated their Super Bowl contender status in Week 11 after beating the Minnesota Vikings.

It turns out that Anthony Davis and LeBron James are just like us when it comes to meeting with celebrities. The two Los Angeles Lakers players are some of the most recognizable names even outside of basketball. However, when they met Fast and Furious star Vin Diesel, the star duo couldn’t help but ask a […]

The Detroit Lions are starting to turn their season around. They now currently hold sole possession of second place in the NFC North after beating the New York Giants in astounding fashion. The win also marks the franchise’s first three-game winning streak since the 2017 season: a step in the right direction for this moribund […]

Is Anthony Davis officially back? It seemed like the consensus amongst NBA fans was that the Los Angeles Lakers forward’s best days were behind him. Over the last few weeks, though, Davis has looked like the same beast that dominated the league in 2020. He’s averaging nearly 30 points and 13 rebounds over the last […]

James Wiseman’s career with the Golden State Warriors has been, for lack of a better term, extremely disappointing. The former second-overall pick in the 2020 NBA draft has struggled immensely in his first few years in the league.

Cameron Jordan’s Iron Man streak with the New Orleans Saints is coming to an end. The star defensive tackle has never missed a game due to an injury. In fact, the only game he missed was a game in 2021 when he was listed in the COVID protocol list. In a sport filled with injuries […]

Zeke is about to feast again. After missing a couple of games due to injury, Ezekiel Elliott will be returning to the Dallas Cowboys against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11, according to Ian Rapoport’s report.

The Philadelphia Eagles aren’t resting on their laurels. After losing their undefeated streak in shocking fashion against the Washington Commanders, the team immediately swung on a couple of free agents. They went and signed Ndamukong Suh and Linval Joseph, two defensive linemen to add to their depth at that position. The question on many Eagles […]

The Cincinnati Bengals finally got some good news regarding Ja’Marr Chase’s injury… for next week, at least. The star wide receiver is officially ruled OUT for their Week 11 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However… Chase is now off crutches, and he’ll likely practice AND play for Cincy’ Week 12 match against the Tennessee Titans, […]

Tennessee’s Jalin Hyatt has been a force to be reckoned with in the college football scene. The star wide receiver is the backbone of the Volunteers’ devastating offensive attack. Against South Carolina football team, though, Hyatt was rendered ineffective by the Gamecocks’ defense shutting down his attempts to attack. After the game concluded, South Carolina […]

There’s a new sheriff in Washington. Amid his torrid stretch over the last few games, the Washington Commanders are promoting Taylor Heinicke to the starting quarterback role over Carson Wentz, league sources tell Ian Rapoport. Heinicke, who started in 15 games for Washington last season, has led the team to three wins in the last […]

After a hot start to the season, the Toronto Raptors have significantly slowed down in the last few games. The reason: a pesky injury bug that’s been terrorizing the team over the last few games.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is arguably the best player in the NBA right now. The Milwaukee Bucks forward is one of the most dominant forces in the league today, thanks to the effort he’s put in over the years. He knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a terrifying presence in the league. […]

The Carolina Panthers’ QB situation this season has been a complete dumpster fire. They traded for Baker Mayfield in the offseason after acquiring Sam Darnold last year. Midway through the season, though, Mayfield was benched for PJ Walker, who had his fair share of highlights and struggles. Week 11 hasn’t officially started, but the Panthers […]

A shooting in the University of Virginia late Sunday night claimed the lives of three people, and injured two others.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers may have won against the Seattle Seahawks in Germany, but it sure didn’t look pretty.

The San Francisco 49ers’ win over the Los Angeles Chargers was marred by an ugly incident during the game. In the second quarter of the game, linebacker Dre Greenlaw drilled Justin Herbert with a nasty accidental helmet-to-helmet hit.

The Miami Dolphins’ many moves during the season had one clear goal: give Tua Tagovailoa the tools he needed to succeed. Aside from trading for Tyreek Hill, the team signed All-Pro OL Terron Armstead to bolster their protection. Midway through the season, and we’re seeing all these moves perfectly pan out for Miami. The Dolphins’ […]

After an uneventful bye week, many Dallas Cowboys fans expected Ezekiel Elliott to return back to the field against the Green Bay Packers.

The Sacramento Kings’ trade of Tyrese Haliburton to the Indiana Pacers continues to confound fans months after it went down.

This season has been absolute disaster for Jimbo Fisher and the Texas A&M football squad. Heading into the season, there were high expectations placed on the Aggies’ shoulders. In fact, they were placed 6th in the national rankings. However, this season has been nothing but disappointment after disappointment for the team. After yet another loss […]

Remember when a Kevin Durant reunion with the Golden State Warriors was a real possibility? During the height of the Brooklyn Nets star’s trade request, the Dubs were among the teams rumored to trade for the star. In the end, KD reneged on his trade request, choosing instead to stay with the team. That’s not […]

Michael Thomas’ career with the New Orleans Saints has been riddled by injury after injury. The wide receiver is easily one of the best players in the league if he’s healthy.

Jim Irsay’s decision to name Jeff Saturday as the Indianapolis Colts’ new head coach has been met by derision by fans. It’s easy to see why: aside from being a member of the team’s Hall of Fame, Saturday has no experience coaching at the NFL level. Many felt like this was a bad decision by […]

To say that Geno Smith’s emergence this season is surprising is a massive understatement. After sitting behind Russell Wilson last season, the Seahawks QB became one of the best players at his position this season. There’s a legitimate argument that Geno is one of the MVP leaders this season. Because of that, talks about Geno […]

The Charlotte Hornets are slumping HARD this season. The absence of LaMelo Ball has been felt greatly over the last few games, losing their last seven games.

The Washington Commanders continue to be surprisingly competitive this season. They currently have a 4-5 record, but there were a couple of games that they definitely could’ve won if a couple of breaks went their way. A return from the injured Chase Young around this team would greatly help their postseason push. Unfortunately, there’s a […]

The Indianapolis Colts’ season from hell continues to trudge on. Their disastrous year has already taken a couple of victims, as head coach Frank Reich was fired and Matt Ryan was benched for Sam Ehlinger. Injuries played a big role in their season too.

The NFL might have a turf problem. The artificial grass surface has been a major talking point amongst NFL players, who claim that the surface actively hurts players.

The Memphis Grizzlies are the embodiment of chaos in the NBA. The Ja Morant-led squad has been terrorizing teams with their explosive offense and spunky play on both sides of the ball.

Astute Seattle Seahawks fans may have noticed something strange about wide receiver Tyler Lockett. On the surface, Lockett seems like your every day star wide-out on the field. A closer look at some of his plays, though, and you’ll notice a big difference in his style of play. While other receivers embrace contact and fight […]

Stephen Curry has done it again. The Golden State Warriors came into their matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers as heavy underdogs. The Dubs have mightily struggled this season, so many expected them to bow to the white-hot Cavs. However, Curry refused to let that happen, taking control of the game up until the final minute. […]
