The Buffalo Bills stamped their class against the Tennessee Titans, 41-7, and the performance turned in by Stefon Diggs was one of the main reasons why the Bills decimated their opponents. But their victory wasn’t without adversity, as the Bills were met with the unfortunate circumstance of seeing Dane Jackson get carted off the field […]

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving, to say the least, is not everyone’s cup of coffee. While he is one the most electric and entertaining point guards of his generation, his on-court contributions have taken a backseat to his off-court takes and quirky shenanigans, which even Irving admitted to being guilty of. One thing’s for […]

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is surely getting up there in years, even if it’s not obvious with how elite he remains on the court. About to turn 38 on December, LeBron is in the twilight of his career, no matter how preposterous that sounds. And as the old adage goes, it’s better late […]

The Washington Commanders, in the third year of head coach Ron Rivera’s leadership, started off the season promisingly enough, taking home the win against the Jacksonville Jaguars, 28-22. However, their Week 2 performance against the Detroit Lions was lackluster, especially defensively, allowing Jared Goff and the Lions’ receiving corps to run rampant with four touchdowns, […]

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills are one of the favorites to claim the Super Bowl this season, and their performances thus far in the first two weeks make them truly worthy of being held in such high regard.

The Philadelphia Eagles, buoyed by superstar performances from quarterback Jalen Hurts and cornerback Darius Slay, dominated the Minnesota Vikings in a 24-7 game that felt more of a blowout than the scoreboard suggets. Hurts’ output, in particular, will turn some heads, as he joined some lofty company with the numbers he posted against the Vikings […]

The Buffalo Bills sure have plenty of reasons to celebrate after a dominant 41-7 victory against the Tennessee Titans in Week 2. Buoyed by elite performances from quarterback Josh Allen and wide receiver Stefon Diggs, the Bills appear to be one of the early championship favorites. However, in a game decided by literal yards, nothing […]

Philadelphia Eagles star quarterback Jalen Hurts put the Minnesota Vikings in a world of hurt all game long, taking matters into his own hands all the while decimating the Vikings’ backline in a 24-7 victory that felt like more of a blowout than it actually was. Hurts put up a masterclass performance, cementing himself as […]

This is a night the entire Tennessee Titans organization would like to forget. After a close 21-20 defeat against the New York Giants in Week 1, the Titans were laughed out of the stadium by the Buffalo Bills, 41-7, with Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs raining fire on the Titans backline. The Titans looked out […]

There were doubts as to whether the Dallas Cowboys could remain competitive with their star quarterback Dak Prescott sidelined for multiple weeks with a thumb injury that required surgery. Facing the Cincinnati Bengals, the runner-ups of Super Bowl LVI, the Cowboys were in a for a major test, and with backup Cooper Rush at the […]

It’s difficult to envision the Las Vegas Raiders enduring a much more gut-wrenching defeat than the 29-23 comeback they suffered at the hands of Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals. After a dominant first half that saw the Raiders lead 20-0, and after leading by 23-7 as late as eight minutes left in the fourth […]

There has been much discussion centered on whether Andre Iguodala will return for his 19th season in the NBA and his eighth with the Golden State Warriors, but his status remains up in the air.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been one of the most dominant teams in MLB in the past decade, and they recently clinched the NL West crown for the ninth time in the past 10 years. Currently sporting a 101-44 record, the Dodgers appear to be the favorite once more to take the World Series home. […]

It might have taken 25 years, but the San Antonio Spurs are going through another rebuild after multiple disappointing seasons following the trade of Kawhi Leonard to the Toronto Raptors back in 2018. With the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes heating up, the Spurs might look to boost their lottery odds even further and ship out veterans […]

Dreams do come true. That’s for sure what Dan Skipper thought after he was given the nod on his very first start in the NFL after years of bouncing around and never establishing himself as a consistent part of a roster. Skipper has been a practice squad player for years, splitting time in the Lions […]

It’s difficult enough to perform at your best when you’re 100 percent healthy. But it’s an entirely different discussion when you’re playing with four fractures in your back, and an even more shocking thing to consider when you’re playing a sport that’s one of the most physically demanding ones out there. But such is the […]

The Los Angeles Lakers still have lots of tough decisions to make for their roster. The addition of Dennis Schroder gives the Lakers another ballhandler to share playmaking duties with LeBron James, as the addition of Russell Westbrook from the Washington Wizards just hasn’t worked out for all parties involved. Much has been made of […]

The Los Angeles Lakers recently signed Dennis Schroder to bolster the team’s depth approaching the new season.

Draymond Green is a four-time NBA champion, most recently playing a huge part in the Golden State Warriors’ triumph over the Boston Celtics in six games in the 2022 Finals. Green knows that, while it matters how the pieces fit together, talent reigns supreme in the league, and he doesn’t blame LeBron James and the […]

Patrick Beverley is one of those players whom fans hate when he’s on the opposing bench, but love when he’s donning their colors. The Los Angeles Lakers and its fans will certainly be welcoming Beverley’s tenacity and personality despite spending a considerable number of years with intracity rivals Los Angeles Clippers. Beverley will surely go […]

New York Mets starter Chris Bassitt has been a huge part of the Mets’ turnaround as one of the best teams in the league with a 90-55 record. An All-Star in 2021, Bassitt has carried over that form in New York, pitching to the tune of a 3.44 ERA in 165 innings pitched (27 starts). […]

Byron Scott had been a coach in the NBA for 13 full seasons (being fired midseason in 2004 and 2009), as teams clearly value his playing experience, especially with the Showtime Lakers.

But there are 17 games in an NFL team’s schedule, and Week 2 is an opportunity for Hackett and the Broncos to bounce back and […]

Imagine going about with your day, answering interview questions peacefully, and then getting sucker-punched on the face. Imagine if the person who punched you square on the face is not just any person, but an MMA Fighter who has a 3-3 record in six professional bouts. That’s what happened to YouTube personality Sadek in Poland […]

Move over, Russell Westbrook, there’s a new triple-double monster in town. Sure, Westbrook is the all-time leader in the NBA with 194 career triple-doubles, but none bigger than the stakes involved in Alyssa Thomas’ immense record-setting performance for the Connecticut Sun in their dominant 105-76 victory against the Las Vegas Aces in Game 3 of […]

Los Angeles Lakers legend and Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is one of the best players to ever grace the court in the NBA.

The Los Angeles Chargers just haven’t been fortunate in their Week 2 loss against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.

Phoenix Suns governor Robert Sarver, who was suspended for a year and fined $10 million for fostering a toxic workplace, especially towards women and minorities, got off with a slap on the wrist.

The New York Knicks just want to get back into playoff contention. After a surprising 2021 season where the Knicks finished fourth in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks struggled in the 2021-22 season amid efficiency troubles for Julius Randle and RJ Barrett, as well as the disappointing free agency additions of Kemba Walker and Evan […]

To say that Cam Reddish hasn’t had the best time with the New York Knicks is an understatement. Requesting a trade from the Atlanta Hawks due to a lack of touches and playing time, Reddish landed in an even worse situation with the Knicks after he was acquired for a 2022 first-round pick. He was […]

Both the New York Knicks and Phoenix Suns are reeling from franchise shortcomings in recent weeks, albeit in vastly different ways.

Flags fly forever. Kansas City Royals fans could do nothing else but take solace in the fact that no one can take away the franchise’s 2015 World Series, as ever since that season, the Royals have not made the postseason, and since 2018, the Royals have consistently been one of the worst teams in the […]
