In 2024, no player on the Los Angeles Rams has done more to impact winning for Sean McVay’s team more than Matthew Stafford. From turning in a massive comeback attempt in Week 1 to having to seemingly prepare weekly for opponents with a different collection of supporting players, the Rams are 4-4 and in second […]

While the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2024 NFL season has largely been a success, sitting pretty at 6-2 despite some pretty odd decisions from Nick Sirianni that have taken points off the board, the one major black eye on the campaign has been the decision to sign Bryce Huff to a massive three-year $51.1 million contract. Now […]

Over the past three weeks, the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense has looked notably different in a very good way.

After securing a massive win over Nia Jax at Crown Jewel, becoming the new and first WWE Crown Jewel Champion in a move that secured her a new belt and a shiny new ring to go with it, Liv Morgan was feeling emotional. Sure, technically, she’s still a heel and wouldn’t have won the belt […]

Heading into the 2024 NFL season, it seemed like a foregone conclusion that the Miami Dolphins would be buyers at the trade deadline.

After officially making up as a trio on the go-home edition of SmackDown before Crown Jewel, The Original Bloodline took the ring against The Bloodline 2.0 in Saudi Arabia in the opening match, and believe you me, the WWE crowd loved every second of it… except when something good happened for Solo Sikoa.

2024 has been a tale of two seasons for the Seattle Seahawks.

With a separate ticketed event […]

After a perfect month of October, the Philadelphia Eagles are sitting pretty in the NFC East.

Goodness, even the defense […]

When Blake Treinen slowly but surely lost his efficiency over the course of the eighth inning, Dave Roberts had to make a decision that would define Game 5 of the World Series one way or another: to bench or not to bench Blake Treinen. A tough call? You bet; Treinen is the Dodgers’ best closing […]

What does Liv Morgan’s five-year plan look like? Does the WWE Woman’s World Champion want to get more into movies? Or maybe get find a new hobby? Add even more gold to her resume?

When Darius Slay left the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 8 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, it called his immediate future into disarray.

When the Indianapolis Colts formally announced that Anthony Richardson was being benched in favor of Joe Flacco, it took the NFL world by storm.
