Discussing how it feels to go from a […]

In 2024, the Philadelphia Eagles really didn’t have a ton of weaknesses. Sure, their pass rush was somewhat inconsistent at times, they didn’t get any production from their WR3 spot, and had to cycle cornerbacks due to a series of injuries to Darius Slay, but there wasn’t one obvious place to attack the Eagles on […]

While the conversation surrounding the Dallas Cowboys likely isn’t what the team hoped for heading into training camp, with fans focused on the back-and-forth banter between Jerry Jones and star players like Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs, it’s easy to forget that the organization did make a few major moves during the offseason. After slowly […]

The fact that Dustin May pitched for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2025 is a minor miracle. After suffering a bizarre lettuce injury that caused an esophageal tear and could have cost him his life, May returned to the mound for the first time since 2023 and has gone on to appear in 18 games […]

In a summer filled with feel-good stories across the NBA, Chris Paul’s decision to leave the San Antonio Spurs to play out his (likely) final season with the Los Angeles Clippers might just be the best one.

Since returning to the mound, Shohei Ohtani, the pitcher, hasn’t gotten much run support from leadoff hitter Shohei Ohtani, Los Angeles Dodgers’ top offensive player.

When Joel Embiid nicknamed Tyrese Maxey “The Franchise,” he inevitably put weight on the Philadelphia 76ers’ then-young, ascending guard.

The 2024-25 season looked like it was going to be the Orlando Magic’s season.

After going on a spending spree of epic proportions last summer, fans always knew the Philadelphia 76ers were going to have a tighter budget in 2025.

After turning in one of the more exciting offseasons in the NBA last year, the Philadelphia 76ers have kept things quiet so far this summer. No max contract signings. No major trade.
