When Clayton Kershaw announced that the Los Angeles Dodgers’ September 19 showdown against the San Francisco Giants would be his final home start before an offseason retirement, it instantly made the contest a must-watch for fans of baseball, Los Angeles sports, or sports history in general. Taking the mound to incredible fanfare from a sold-out […]

As LA legend Clayton Kershaw took the mound for his final regular season home game at Dodger Stadium, one of his oldest childhood friends had to grab a ticket to see him play at Chavez Ravine one last time: Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. A pair of childhood friends who were actually teammates at […]

As the Philadelphia Eagles prepare for their Week 3 showdown against the Las Vegas Rams, Nick Sirianni was asked about a player who has really come into his own in 2024: Jordan Davis. That’s right, while his once and future teammate Jalen Carter draws all of the headlines – and the double-teams – from opposing […]

In 2025, the Las Vegas Raiders’ defense has been a tale of two halves. Facing off against the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Chargers to open up the season, the Raiders gave up plenty of yards and points in the first half to both foes, but have been able to rally after the […]

For the third-straight week in a row, the Philadelphia Eagles find themselves facing off against a team with playoff aspirations, with the Los Angeles Rams taking their second direct flight of the year from LAX to PHL for an NFC showdown. Soon, fans will get to see if Nick Sirianni is able to get his […]

What is wrong with the Kansas City Chiefs’ offense? Are they simply missing too many players? Or has Patrick Mahomes not yet rounded into regular season form, whiffing on balls and throwing picks where he would usually drop dimes? Well, in the opinion of NFL offensive lineman-turned analyst Brian Baldinger on the NFL Network, the […]

With Week 3 rapidly approaching, Field Yates and the rest of the panel on ESPN’s NFL Live used some time on their Wednesday show to discuss two quarterbacks who are about to duke it out as part of a special AFC showdown: CJ Stroud of the Houston Texans and Trevor Lawrence of the Jacksonville Jaguars. […]

After expressing his frustrations with how the Tush Push narrative has clouded the Philadelphia Eagles’ success in 2025, Jordan Mailata took things a step further on his weekly 94 WIP show, accusing other teams of outright sabotaging Jalen Hurts and the offense. That’s right, sitting down with Eliot Shorr-Parks and Spike Eskins on The Jordan […]

After finding themselves the last team standing in a bizarre year of NFC West football in 2024, the Los Angeles Rams are off to a very good start in 2025, taking care of the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans with relative ease to maintain a perfect record through Week 2. Unfortunately for Sean McVay’s club, […]

In what might be a first in MLB history, the top home run hitter in the National League, in this case, Philadelphia Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber, went up to bat against the second-best home run hitter in the National League, Los Angeles Dodgers DH Shohei Ohtani, who just so happens to be one of […]

For what feels like the 50th game in a row, the narrative surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 2 win over the Kansas City Chiefs didn’t center around Vic Fangio’s defensive adjustments, the team’s two rookie defenders who look like absolute stars, or even bumps along Kevin Patullo’s journey form passing game coordinator to offensive coordinator, […]

When it comes to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2025, one of the toughest endorsements for a player to garner is from Vic Fangio. An old school coach who was borderline mutinied out of Miami for the way he led his Dolphins players, Fangio gets most excited about his beloved Philadelphia Phillies, with his defenders getting […]

After dropping their record to 1-1 after an ugly loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the inaugural DK Metcalf Bowl, the Pittsburgh Steelers will have a little extra ammunition heading into Week 3, when they take the show to Foxboro for an early-season 43 showdown with the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium. That’s right, […]

Though the 2025 NFL season is still young, the Houston Texans’ offense appears to be a problem. Sitting in the basement of the AFC South at 0-2, the Texans’ offense has failed to record 300 total yards in two straight games, with starting quarterback CJ Stroud having already been sacked six times and pressured 11 […]

While some will quibble with how the Philadelphia Eagles use AJ Brown on a week-to-week basis, from the number of targets he receives to the quality of routes he’s asked to run, one fact is undisputed: No. 11 knows a thing or two about facing the best cornerbacks in the NFL. Arguably the Eages’ best […]

When it comes to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2025, the team only goes as far as Shohei Ohtani. One of the absolute best offensive players in the game, who can hit for power, hit for average, get on base often, and even make opposing teams pay as a certified steal specialist, Ohtani has consistently […]

For the second time in 2025, the Philadelphia Eagles went up against the Kansas City Chiefs and secured a victory. Facing off against former head coach Andy Reid in a heat battle, this time in enemy territory, the Eagles did just enough on offense, dominated on defense, and even picked off Patrick Mahomes at a […]

On August 9, Mookie Betts made it official: His 2025 season for the Los Angeles Dodgers has been a disappointment. “This season’s over. My season’s kind of over. We’re going to have to chalk that up for not a great season,” Betts said via The Athletic. “But I can go out and help the boys […]

As the Los Angeles Chargers prepare for their second straight appearance on prime time, taking the field against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium in Sin City, Jim Harbaugh may be without one of his best defensive players as linebacker Daiyan Henley has been downgraded to questionable for the contest. That’s right, with longtime starting […]

Heading into South Carolina’s Week 3 showdown against Vanderbilt, one of the biggest questions surrounding the Gamecocks was how star quarterback LaNorris Sellers would look against the Commodores’ defense. Unfortunately, that evaluation period lasted less than a half, as, with just under two minutes to go before intermission, the future first-round pick was hit hard […]

When it comes to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ struggles in 2025, no one is down worse than Tanner Scott. A well-traveled veteran closer with some pretty incredible highlights on his resume, the Dodgers signed Scott away from the San Diego Padres to be their guy moving forward, but so far, his late-game efforts have been […]

Philadelphia Eagles fans born after 2010 have never known a world without Brandon Graham on their favorite team until 2025. That’s right, originally drafted in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft out of Michigan, Graham spent all 218 of his professional games in Philadelphia, playing up and down the offensive line for four […]

Heading into Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs in a highly anticipated Super Bowl rematch at Arrowhead Stadium, the Philadelphia Eagles need all hands on deck. Facing off against an Andy Reid team coming off an ugly loss in Brazil against their division rivals, the Los Angeles Chargers, the Eagles will be entering enemy […]

For a team that has almost exclusively been in the first place in their division, the mood around the Los Angeles Dodgers hasn’t exactly been great in the months following their World Series win. Fortunately, while Dodgers fans might not love how up-and-down the reigning champions played over the summer, in the opinion of announcer […]

In Week 1, the Kansas City Chiefs got almost nothing from their run game. Facing off against a Los Angeles Chargers team desperate to show that they are in the same league as the Super Bowl runner-ups, the Chiefs couldn’t get darn near anything going on the ground save a few runs by Patrick Mahomes, […]

When news broke that Dallas Goedert wouldn’t be able to play in the Super Bowl rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs, it left Philly fans bothered. Sure, Goedert is getting older and might not be the same force he was earlier in the Sirianni era, but he was an important piece […]

On August 5, 2025, Hulk Hogan was laid to rest near his home in Clearwater, Florida.  Sitting down to talk in part about his relationship with the “Hulkamaniac” with Johnny Manziel on his Glory Daze podcast, Rick Flair recalled the ceremony and revealed that some of the wrestlers he expected to see at the WWE […]

When news broke that Jadeveon Clowney left his visit with the Dallas Cowboys without signing a new contract, fans more or less shut the door on the potential Micah Parsons replacement. Maybe they shouldn’t have. Discussing the Cowboys’ interest in Clowney and what he could bring to the organization with reporters on Friday, Stephen Jones […]

Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season featured very different results for the Philadelphia Eagles and their Super Bowl LIX opponents, the Kansas City Chiefs. For the Eagles, it was a dominant effort performed under very unusual circumstances, with Jalen Carter spitting on Dak Prescott starting Thursday Night Football up on a strange note, and […]

When news broke that the Philadelphia Eagles traded a pair of picks to acquire Tank Bigsby from the Jacksonville Jaguars, fans immediately started imagining his pairing with Saquon Barkley. Suddenly, one of the better young running backs in the game would be teamed up with one of the best players in the NFL period, with […]

After being announced as the three hitter in the Los Angeles Dodgers series finale against the Colorado Rockies, Will Smith was a late scratch, with Dave Roberts instead turning to Ben Rortvedt under the mask. Revealing the move shortly before the opening pitch, the Dodgers broadcast noted that the bone bruise on the top of […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles signed Za’Darius Smith to help bolster their defensive line in the hours after a Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys, it turned heads around the fanbase. After entering the season with question marks at the edge rusher position, a fact made all the more concerning following the news that both […]

For seemingly the first time in months, the Los Angeles Dodgers have more outfielders than they have playing time. That’s right, after largely sticking with the trio of Michal Conforto in left field, Andy Pages in center, and Teoscar Hernandez in right, Roberts is shaking things up following the return of Tommy Edman, giving the […]

When Ronda Rousey called out WWE for putting her in a program with Alexa Bliss, it set the professional wrestling world on fire. In the “Rowdy One’s” opinion, the idea of a proven MMA fighter, one of the best to ever do it in UFC, selling for one of the smallest wrestlers in the business […]

In 2025, when an opposing coach says something bad about Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning and how his program built their roster, bad things tend to happen. Case in point, Mike Gundy, the Oklahoma State head coach, who told anyone that would listen that the Ducks had the best lines money could buy, only […]

Sitting one game back from the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West, the San Diego Padres need to do everything in their power to end Dave Roberts’ dominance and finally secure a pennant for the first time since 2006. For Fernando Tatis Jr., that meant pulling a page from Spider-Man’s playbook to scale the […]

With the summer rapidly coming to a close, the Philadelphia 76ers are slowly but surely making their way back to the Training Complex in Camden, New Jersey, to prepare for the 2025-26 NBA season. Among the fresh crop of talent who will be heading to New Jersey to test their mettle and get their game […]

When Bryan Danielson lost to Jon Moxley in the main event of AEW WrestleDream in October of 2024, it marked the end of his full-time professional wrestling career. Since that faithful day, Danielson has had neck surgery, made a few podcast appearances, but largely stayed out of the spotlight, at least until earlier this summer, […]

Though he won’t see the field for some time while recovering from a Week 18 ACL tear, wide receiver Christian Watson doesn’t have to worry about his immediate future in Green Bay, as the Packers just handed him a new one-year, $13.25 million extension to remain with the team in 2026. Taking to social media […]
