With the 2025 NFL Draft a month away, teams with top picks, like the New York Giants, are doing their darndest to make sure no stone is left unturned before the big day in Green Bay. From pro days, to in-person visits, to the ever-entertaining dinners, it seems like NFL teams want to talk to […]

As you may or may not have heard, the Philadelphia Eagles have had a very eventful offseason. They’ve re-signed some of their own, said goodbye to a few fan favorites, but replaced them with a few interesting players along the way as well, with the potential to land even more new performers in the 2025 […]

Ever since John Cena turned heel on Cody Rhodes at the Elimination Chamber, selling his soul to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to become a certified title chase, “The Champ” has become an absolute menace. He’s talking trash on WWE fans, forgoing his usual motto of “Hustle, Loyalty, Respect” and just generally focusing on his own […]

Heading into the offseason, the New England Patriots had some serious decisions to make about their 2025 NFL roster construction. On one hand, the team had the fourth overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, which would guarantee them, at worst, their fourth-favorite player in this year’s class. With that being said, the Pats also […]

For much of the offseason, Arizona’s Tetairoa McMillan has been considered the 2025 NFL Draft’s WR1. Sure, in the eyes of some, Travis Hunter deserves that honor and rightfully so, as he is among the best passing players in the NFL regardless of whether you list him as a wide receiver or a cornerback, but […]

After watching Gable Steveson dominate over and over again on the wrestling mat, from winning NCAA Championships to the Olympics, the former WWE Superstar was thwarted in the pursuit of cementing his collegiate legacy even further at the NCAA Division 1 Wrestling Championships in Philadelphia when Oklahoma State’s Wyatt Hendrickson beat him 5-4 for the […]

Heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, Tyler Warren has been pretty consistently ranked higher than Colston Loveland by talent evaluators.

When news broke that Jalen Brunson was going to be out of action for an extended period of time with a sprained right ankle injury, it added a major question mark to the final chapter of the New York Knicks’ 2024-25 regular season. Sure, the team has Miles “Deuce” McBride, who has played well in […]

Over the past few years, there’s been a growing trend of NBA players making appearances in WWE. Tyrese Halburton has appeared on multiple shows, from the main roster to NXT.

When news broke that the New York Giants were signing journeyman quarterback Jameis Winston to a two-year, $8 million contract, no one was more excited about the development than Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, and the rest of the Philadelphia Eagles’ defensive backs. One of the least risk-averse quarterbacks in the NFL, Winston has thrown an […]

With WrestleMania 41 rapidly approaching, it seems like every WWE Superstar is looking for a way to get their name onto the “Showcase of the Immortals” card. For champions, this is more or less a formality, as almost every titleholder ends up wrestling at WrestleMania one way or another, but for belt-less grapplers? It can […]

In 2024-25, Joe Ingles doesn’t play much for Chris Finch’s Minnesota Timberwolves. Sure, he gets into games from time to time and even has a double-digit scoring game in the team’s loss to the Washington Wizards. But of the 18 games Ingles has appeared in so far this season, he’s played more than ten minutes […]

When it comes to the NFL, few players are a bigger question mark than Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts. Originally drafted fourth overall out of Florida, famously coming off the board before players like Ja’Marr Chase, Jaylen Waddle, and DeVonta Smith, every year it seems like Pitts is going to make good on his […]

After weeks and weeks of anticipation, question marks, and hypotheticals, the New York Giants have made it official: Jameis Winston is heading to the Big Apple on a two-year deal worth as much as $16 million. That’s right, after being linked to Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, and beyond, the Giants are going all-in on Winston […]

Though the 2025 NFL Draft is still over a month away, the Los Angeles Chargers are deep in the weeds of scouting players, including one their head coach, Jim Harbaugh, knows very well: tight end Colston Loveland. That’s right, while Loveland famously played his college ball for Harbaugh, being recruited by the now-Chargers coach all […]

When news broke that Avonte Maddox was leaving the Philadelphia Eagles to sign with the Detroit Lions, it marked the end of an era in the City of Brotherly Love. Maddox, originally a fourth-round pick out of Pittsburgh, had only ever played in Philadelphia as a pro, and even after being released from his contract […]

When the legal tampering period before free agency opened up, it looked like Milton Williams was going to be joining the Carolina Panthers. Reporters noted Carolina was the front front-runner for the former Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle, the top interior rusher on the board appeared to have found a new home, and the rest of […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles signed Azeez Ojulari to a one-year, $4 million deal, it generally earned positive marks from fans of the City of Brotherly Love. Ojulari has been an effective pass-rushing specialist, was a hot topic around the trade deadline last year, and agreed to a deal well below market value despite being the top […]

When news broke that the Bengals were re-signing both Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins at market-resetting WR1 and WR2 deals, it genuinely took the NFL by storm. Now granted, most fans expected to at least see the two star receivers on the Bengals this year, with an extension for Chase widely expected while a Higgins […]

When Howie Roseman opted to trade away CJ Gardner Johnson for a pick swap and Kenyon Green, it created a major need at safety for the Philadelphia Eagles.

After coming up short in one of the worst games of the season in their 105-114 loss to the Denver Nuggets, Steve Kerr’s Golden State Warriors ripped off one of their best wins of the season against the Milwaukee Bucks, beating Giannis Antetokounmpo and company 104-93. Golden State creeped back towards their season average from […]

After failing to add even a Zach Wilson-level quarterback to provide competition for Will Levis heading into his third professional season, fans, pundits, and reporters alike have been left with the same assumption: the Tennessee Titans are looking to draft Cam Ward first overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. On paper, it makes sense, right? […]

While fans eagerly anticipate the official opening day of the 2025 MLB season, reporters, pundits, and experts like ESPN’s Jeff Passan are getting their ducks in a row to make sure they have all their boxes checked for the start of the six-month war of attrition. And yet, for Passan, he found himself locked in […]

When Brandon Graham formally announced his retirement from the NFL after 15-straight season with the Philadelphia Eagles, it hit football fans from around the league hard, from folks in line for coffee at Wawa all the way up to New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns, who remainds a hardcore Birds supporter despite beign deep in […]

While the Pittsburgh Steelers have been linked to some of the top quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft class, including a recent Mel Kiper Jr. video about both Shedeur Sanders and Jaxson Dart going viral, the Pittsburgh Steelers spent their evening talking to a very unique signal-caller in Alabama. That’s right, as the NFL world […]

When news broke that the Los Angeles Rams were losing Christian Rozeboom in free agency, fans openly wondered how Les Snead and company would address the middle linebacker position. Now granted, it’s not like Rozeboom was particularly good in 2025; in fact, he was actually quite bad, as his sub-60 PFF rankings in overall grade, […]

When John Cena executed one of the biggest heel turns in WWE history with his incredible, soul-selling split with Cody Rhodes, it got fans talking. Would the 16-time World Champion use this new momentum to break Ric Flair’s record? Would he flip the switch and go on a genrational final run after losing most of […]

After entering the offseason as one of the hottest names in the 2025 NFL Draft, Shedeur Sanders’ draft stock has unquestionably taken a hit over the past few months, going from a borderline lock to go top-2 to a player some have suggested might be available in the 20s or even later. While ESPN’s Mel […]

After going out on top with an unlikely return to the field for the Super Bowl, Brandon Graham has officially announced his retirement from the NFL, calling it a career after 15 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles. Though he wasn’t always the most popular player in town, BG’s commitment to succeeding in Philadelphia eventually made […]

After making waves through the college hoops ranks with the announcement of his new job as the leader of the Indiana Hoosiers men’s basketball team, Darian DeVries released an official statement on making the jump to the Big Ten, letting fans know that he is ready for this opportunity. “This is unquestionably one of the […]

Heading into free agency, the Philadelphia Eagles were not expected to be heavy spenders. Sure, they were expected to lose multiple good players in free agency, including almost half of their Super Bowl-winning starting defensive line, but replacing them? That would have to happen through re-signing their own player and the 2025 NFL Draft, as […]

When the Philadelphia 76ers find themselves without any of their three max players, one can safely assume that their chances of winning a game aren’t particularly high. Now granted, the team still has Quentin Grimes, who has been near-single-handedly challenging “The Tank” with his ability to seemingly drop 30 at will as a number one […]

There was a time in the not-too-distant past when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was a throw-in as part of one of the more consequential trades to hit the NBA transaction wire in recent memory. At the time, SGA was considered a quality player for the Los Angeles Clippers, sure, with Doc Rivers coaching him to a quality […]

Heading into the Philadelphia 76ers’ Monday night matchup against the Houston Rockets, Nick Nurse’s squad was clearly stacking the deck ever so slightly to impact the outcome of the game. Now granted, some lineup choices are out of the 76ers hands, as both Joel Embiid and Paul George have been ruled out for the rest […]

Though the first major wave of free agency has officially passed, with major, multi-year deals worth tens of millions of dollars having been handed out across the league, there are still good deals to be had for a team like the Pittsburgh Steelers, who want to target upgrades on the margins. Case in point: the […]

After loading up on buy-low free agent options from Josh Uche to Harrison Bryant, Avery Williams, Adoree’ Jackson, and their latest addition, ex-Giants rusher Azeez Ojulari, the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles are rewarding one of their own once more, giving long-time right tackle Lane Johnson additional money for a job well done. Taking to […]

When it comes to free agency, it’s hard to really judge any team’s class, from the high-spending New England Patriots to the more reserved San Francisco 49ers, in March. Sure, certain contracts look really good, and others look less so, but who would have predicted that Zack Baun would have become an All-Pro while Bryce […]

When the Tenessee Titans signed Chidobe Awuzie to a three-year, $36 million contract, the team thought it would fill one of their cornerback spots for the foreseeable future. On paper, the idea was sound; Awuzie was a high draft pick, started a ton of games for both the Dallas Cowboys and the Cincinnati Bengals, and […]

When news broke that the San Francisco 49ers were trading away Jordan Mason for a future sixth and a late-round pick swap in 2025, it turned heads within the fanbase. Why did the 49ers want to give away a player who had multiple 100-yard performances in 2024 for such a low price when it’s hard […]
