A few days ago, a leak of the Boston Celtics’ alternate “City” Jerseys for the 2022 – 23 season were leaked. In a vacuum, the jerseys looked really good: the colors and the lettering made it look classy without removing the identity of the team. However, many fans did not like the colors, specifically because […]

The Dallas Mavericks’ 2021 – 2022 season was both a big success and a heartbreaking experience for the team.

Unfortunately… they lost in the WCF in five games to the eventual champions […]

Ja’Marr Chase and Joe Burrow was electric in their return to their old stomping grounds in Louisiana.

The Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys do NOT like each other. The two NFC East powerhouses have been bitter rivals for what feels like ages now. The two fanbases (and even their players, too!) just can’t stand the presence of each other. It’s one of the fiercest rivalries in all of US sports. Still, […]

A few months after the Deshaun Watson saga was seemingly resolved, a new case surfaced against the Cleveland Browns star. On Wednesday, a new plaintiff filed a sexual assault lawsuit against the QB. This new case brings the number of accusers of Watson to 25, a number that seems absolutely insane. The new lawsuit against […]

The Los Angeles Lakers are heading into the 2022 – 23 season with some big questions surrounding the team.

Ben Simmons’ exit from the Philadelphia 76ers was as messy as it could possibly be. The former All-Star point guard was ran out of town after a terrible performance in the playoffs.

A few days ago, VALORANT’s newest Agent, Harbor, was finally released. Fans have long been speculating about the upcoming Controller Agent, and now, we finally got it.

Zach Wilson is the future of the New York Jets for the next few years. The franchise is banking on the second overall pick of the 2021 NFL draft to help them reclaim their past glories. For Wilson to succeed, though, he’ll need to take some pointers from some of the greatest to ever play […]

Tom Brady’s supposed final season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers isn’t going as planned. Yes, the Buccaneers are 3 – 2 heading into their Week 6 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However… their wins haven’t been as convincing as they should be, especially in the last few weeks. Injuries and some struggles on offense has […]

Justin Fields has been nothing short of a polarizing figure in Chicago sports media. There are thousands of people backing up the Chicago Bears quarterback despite his struggles. For every Fields supporter though, there’s a equivalent hater that is convinced that the QB has reached his supposed low ceiling. At the very least, though, both […]

Well, Thursday Night Football really is something, huh. A week after the abomination that was the Colts-Broncos game, NFL fans were treated to yet another ugly game between the Chicago Bears and the Washington Commanders. Both teams struggled at various points during the game, and only one touchdown was scored the entire team (coming from […]

The Chicago Cubs had yet another disappointing season in 2022. Despite the losing record, though, the team had many key players that performed well for them. Players like Ian Happ and Willson Contreras balled out for Chicago this season, and were expected to be traded during the trade deadline. However, the organization shockingly did not […]

The panic button in Wisconsin is awfully close to being pressed after the Green Bay Packers’ Week 5 loss to the New York Giants. During the London game, Aaron Rodgers and co. were outplayed by the scrappy G-Men. Because of that, Green Bay falls to 3-2, with the two losses coming in back-to-back games. There […]

Once the indomitable titan of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Astralis has fallen off the wayside quite a bit in the last few years.

It seems like the Carolina Panthers’ brass has finally had enough of Matt Rhule. Amid yet another dreadful season, the team has decided to fire the former Baylor head coach. It’s a change that many fans have long called for, and one that is likely way overdue. (via Ian Rapoport) The #Panthers have fired Matt […]

The New York Jets have been one of the most impressive teams this season relative to expectations. Many felt like this team had the makings of a young rebuilding team: the talent is available, but they’ll struggle to win games. However, five weeks in, and New York is in the mix for the AFC East […]

The Seattle Seahawks lost in more ways than one in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints. For one, they lost in heartbreaking fashion, losing 39 – 32.

No one could’ve predicted that this would happen. After five weeks of NFL action, the Philadelphia Eagles remain the only undefeated team in the league. Many expected this team to be solid this season after their offseason acquisitions. No one, though, expected Jalen Hurts to become one of the best QBs in the league this […]

The Buffalo Bills are just so clearly ahead of most teams in the league today. That fact was painfully obvious during their Week 5 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Against a battered Pittsburgh team, Josh Allen showcased his might, throwing beautiful spirals that exposed the Steelers’ soft defense. Would you believe it, though, if someone […]

Well, this wasn’t how the New York Mets’ season was supposed to end. The team from Queens had one of the best seasons in recent memories, eclipsing the 100-win mark. They led the NL East for most of the year… only to squander a 10.5 game lead to the Atlanta Braves. The Mets were then […]

Oh, Antonio Brown. A year ago, the wide receiver was on top of the NFL world, having won his first Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After years of off-field drama, it seemed like Brown has started to turn his image around. Now, Brown is not on an NFL roster after his bizarre exit […]

After Kemba Walker was traded to the Detroit Pistons, many fans expected the point guard to be bought out and signed almost immediately. Even though he was unproductive in New York, there was hope that he could still be productive on a different team. However, with the NBA season about to start, Kemba Walker still […]

The New York Yankees are entering the 2022 playoffs in a weird spot. Yes, they did earn one of the byes in the American League, skipping straight to the Division Series. Generally, that should be a good indicator of how good a team is. However, let’s just say that the team’s performance to end the […]

Somehow, some way, the Cleveland Browns are in the mix for the AFC North. After four games, the team is tied with the Cincinnati Bengals and the Baltimore Ravens for first place in the division. With Deshaun Watson still out due to his suspension, Cleveland should try their best to win as much games as […]

The Detroit Lions are having an absolutely bonkers season for all the wrong reasons. After struggling on offense last year, this season is shaping up to be their best offensive output in years. However, their defense has not looked right at all, struggling to stop every team that they’ve faced. As a result, they sit […]

Brian Robinson’s Week 5 return from injury is incredible in many ways. The Washington Commanders rookie was shot twice in the leg during the preseason in an attempted robbery incident. Robinson thankfully did not suffer life-threatening injuries. However, his recovery from being shot delayed his much-awaited debut. Now, in an amazing turn of events, Brian […]

The AFC North is a complete and utter mess four weeks into the season. The Cincinnati Bengals, Baltimore Ravens, and Cleveland Browns are all tied at 2-2 four weeks into the season. Because of that, the Week 5 matchup between Cincy and Baltimore holds a lot of weight. Winning here would give either team a […]

Odell Beckham Jr is currently the hottest name in the NFL free agency market right now.

LeBron James is arguably the biggest sports figure in the United States right now. The Los Angeles Lakers star is one of the most recognizable athletes today.

It was a move that clearly signaled one thing: the ‘Wolves are going for it this […]

Heading into the 2022 season, the wide receiver position seemed to be one of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ biggest strengths. After all, they have, on paper, one of the strongest receiving cores in the league. When you have guys like Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Julio Jones on your roster, your team should be killing […]

The Orlando Magic held their breath on Friday night after sophomore point Jalen Suggs went down with an apparent leg injury.

Four weeks in to the 2022 season, and the Jacksonville Jaguars are already having a much better season this year.

Antonio Brown just can’t get his name out of the headlines. The former NFL star wide receiver was the subject of attention last week after an… indecent incident in Dubai. This has been a recurring theme for Brown, who was a magnet for off-field drama even during his playing days. Now, another incident related to […]

The video of the Draymond Green – Jordan Poole altercation has been leaked, and fans are losing their minds over it.
