The Baltimore Orioles have established themselves as one of the best teams in the MLB over the past two seasons, and a big reason why is because of their ability to continually develop star hitters at the major league level. Guys like Adley Rutschman, Gunnar Henderson, Colton Cowser, and Jordan Westburg have emerged as stars […]

Training camp for the New England Patriots had largely been dominated by Matthew Judon storylines. The star pass rusher made it clear he wanted a new contract, and he became more and more frustrated as all of his teammates got new deals, while he ended up getting the short end of the stick. It was […]

The Dallas Cowboys appear to have one of the most talented rosters in the NFL already, but they are still adding to their team, even with training camp well underway. After swinging a trade with the New York Giants on Wednesday night for defensive tackle Jordan Phillips, the Cowboys front office added another veteran piece […]

The Seattle Seahawks are hoping to find their way back to the postseason in 2024 after they missed out last season, and after the team surprisingly moved on from longtime head coach Pete Carroll over the offseason, they tasked Mike Macdonald with coming in and leading the way. Early on in training camp, though, it […]

The Brandon Aiyuk saga has drawn on throughout the 2024 NFL offseason, and at this point, it seems like he will either sign a long-term extension with the San Francisco 49ers, or get traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. When it comes to a potential trade, it seems like the 49ers could be the only thing […]

The New York Jets have high hopes for the upcoming 2024 campaign, largely because they are expecting to have Aaron Rodgers back on the field for them. Rodgers played just four snaps last season before he tore his Achilles in their season opener against the Buffalo Bills, so all eyes are going to be on […]

The Miami Dolphins didn’t necessarily have an explosive offseason, but they managed to add to their roster quite a bit after they found their way to the playoffs last season. One of the more under the radar moves involved signing veteran defensive tackle Teair Tart to see if he could stick with the team, but […]

The Buffalo Bills lost a lot of pass-catching talent this offseason, as they traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans, and watched Gabe Davis sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency. And even though the 2024 regular season campaign hasn’t gotten underway yet, the Bills are already dealing with some injury woes at the […]

The New York Yankees suffered one of their worst losses of the season on Monday night when they were blown out by a score of 12-2 at the hands of the Chicago White Sox. And as is typically the case, Alex Verdugo found himself getting roasted by fans as a result of a ridiculous bunt […]

The San Francisco 49ers have an impressively deep defensive line, but you can never have enough depth at that spot, and the team has been working on developing a couple guys behind the scenes. One of those guys is 2022 sixth-round pick Kalia Davis, who is set to enter his third season with the team […]

The Cincinnati Bengals are hoping to bounce back after a rough 2023 campaign, and there are plenty of reasons why they should be expected to post a big turnaround season. Joe Burrow is healthy and figures to be back under center come Week 1, and he still has a bevy of talented playmakers surrounding him […]

The 2024 season is the beginning of a new era for Alabama football. After 17 years at the helm, Nick Saban announced his retirement from coaching at the conclusion of the 2023 campaign, leaving an incredibly big hole for the team to fill. Kalen DeBoer has been tasked with replacing him, and considering how much […]

The Miami Dolphins had a solid 2023 campaign, and for a point in time, it looked like we were witnessing talented pass rusher Jaelan Phillips put together a breakout season for them. But then, his season came to a premature conclusion when he tore his Achilles in Week 11, adding to his lengthy list of […]

Team USA won gold at the 2024 Summer Olympics, but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t some controversy surrounding the team throughout their run. Head coach Steve Kerr drew quite a bit of criticism for his unorthodox lineups, and one guy who frequently found himself getting the short end of the stick was star Indiana Pacers […]

Aaron Rodgers is a lightning rod for controversy, and easily one of his most questionable comments came back during the COVID-19 pandemic when he refused to get vaccinated against the virus, claiming that he was “immunized” from the disease. Given the damage COVID had caused on our society, it’s safe to say those comments didn’t […]

The Denver Broncos shocked the world when they drafted Bo Nix with the 12th overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, but the franchise seemed convinced that he was their quarterback of the future. And in his first preseason action for the team against the Indianapolis Colts, Nix helped showcase why the team used their […]

Jerod Mayo and the New England Patriots have spent most of the offseason looking for a number one wide receiver to come in and help out their offense, which made their decision to release veteran wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster so shocking. Smith-Schuster had been employed in a similar role earlier in his career with the […]

The Baltimore Orioles became the first team in the MLB to reach 70 wins on Saturday night when they recorded a 7-5 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, and they have done so despite the fact that their starting rotation has been banged up seemingly all year long. The latest guy to hit the shelf […]

Team USA made it a goal of theirs to do everything in their power to win gold at the 2024 Summer Olympics after they failed to earn a medal at the 2023 FIBA World Cup. Sure enough, with a 98-87 victory over France on Saturday, the Americans won gold, and it was thanks in large […]

Team USA won gold at the 2024 Summer Olympics thanks to a 98-87 victory over France in their gold medal game on Saturday. And while it was certainly a team effort, a flurry of threes from Stephen Curry late in the game put the game to rest for the Americans, while also serving as a […]

The Philadelphia Eagles picked up a 16-13 victory over the Baltimore Ravens in their preseason opener on Friday night, and while their starters didn’t play, there was still a lot to take in from this game. Apparently, there was enough in this game for the Eagles to quickly make a pair of roster moves on […]

Stephen Curry has received quite a bit of praise for his strong play with Team USA in the 2024 Summer Olympics, and considering what he managed to do against Serbia and France in their final two games, it’s not too hard to see why. However, there were a lot of under-the-radar contributors for Team USA […]

The Chicago White Sox made a big change when they fired manager Pedro Grifol and replaced him with Grady Sizemore on Thursday, giving the worst team in the MLB a much needed change. Grady Sizemore was tasked with replacing Grifol in the interim, and given how historically awful Chicago has been this season, it’s safe […]

After being selected with the second overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, there’s quite a bit of hype surrounding Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. And on Saturday afternoon, fans will get to see him in game action for the first time when the Commanders open their preseason slate against the New York Jets. […]

Considering how they have struggled at times throughout the 2024 Summer Olympics, France entered their semifinal matchup against Germany on Thursday as underdogs. And yet, when the final buzzer sounded, Victor Wembanyama and company had picked up an upset victory to advance to the Gold Medal Game, with the score settling in at 73-69. It […]

The Tennessee Titans have a lot of new faces on their team at training camp, but one of the guys that folks are most interested to see on the field isn’t a new face, but rather one that we all haven’t seen in awhile. That would be former first-round pick Caleb Farley, who didn’t take […]

The Philadelphia Eagles have Super Bowl expectations for the 2024 campaign, and they are hoping to get back to the top of the mountain for the first time since 2017. Of course, fans still haven’t gotten over that crazy playoff run that was inspired by a legendary stretch from veteran quarterback Nick Foles. On Thursday […]

The Baltimore Ravens are hopeful that they can finally find a way to get over the hump and return to the Super Bowl in 2024. They have an extremely talented roster, led by reigning MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson. Everyone knows that Jackson is one of the most dynamic players in the league, and it’s something […]

The Atlanta Braves have been piecing together their starting rotation all season long, but they are struggling quite a bit to find guys who can consistently deliver for them when it’s their turn to take the mound. On Tuesday night, Bryce Elder got the ball, but he got rocked by the Milwaukee Brewers (3.2 IP, […]

For much of the 2023 campaign, the Philadelphia Eagles seemed inevitable, as they stormed out to a 10-1 record and seemed like the best team in the league. From there on out, they won just one more game, and ended up getting eliminated in the wild card round of the playoffs. It was a collapse […]

All offseason long, New England Patriots fans have been clamoring for the team to add a true number one wide receiver to their offense. While they landed a pair of promising pass catchers in Ja’Lynn Polk and Javon Baker in the 2024 NFL Draft, they missed out on Calvin Ridley in free agency and failed […]

The 2024 campaign hasn’t even gotten underway yet, but the Los Angeles Rams, particularly their offensive line, have already gotten hit hard by the injury bug. Alaric Jackson, Rob Havenstein, and Jonah Jackson have all already suffered injuries early on in training camp, which is pretty notable considering they are projected to be three of […]

The Baltimore Ravens offense appears to be in pretty good shape heading into the 2024 campaign. Lamar Jackson is leading the way at quarterback, with talented playmakers in Derrick Henry, Mark Andrews, and Zay Flowers working alongside him. And yet, you can never have too much help on offense, which led the Ravens to make […]

The 2024 Summer Olympics are still underway, but football fans can’t help but look four years down the line to the 2028 Summer Olympics, because flag football will officially become a part of the games. And while there’s still quite a bit of time until we see flag football in the Olympics, it looks like […]

Brandon Aiyuk trade rumors have been in full force over the past 24 hours, and it sounds like the New England Patriots are one of the final teams in the running for the San Francisco 49ers star wide receiver. However, it’s clear their head coach Jerod Mayo isn’t all that interested in talking about the […]

The Minnesota Vikings have a new quarterback situation entering the 2024 campaign. Kirk Cousins departed for the Atlanta Falcons in free agency, so the team opted to sign Sam Darnold and use the tenth overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft on JJ McCarthy. While Minnesota is incredibly high on McCarthy’s potential, he may not […]

The Texas Rangers defense of their World Series victory in 2023 hasn’t exactly gone according to plan, and it’s safe to say that injuries have played a big role in their woes. Their most recent move saw star pitcher Max Scherzer hit the injured list due to right shoulder fatigue, so the front office had […]

One of the biggest sagas of the 2024 NFL offseason took a turn on Monday when reports surfaced suggesting that the San Francisco 49ers were now open to trading away star wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. With no progress being made towards a long-term extension between the two sides, the Niners have allegedly shifted gears and […]

The Minnesota Twins have been working hard to hold onto the second American League wild card spot over the past few weeks, and they have been doing so without star shortstop Carlos Correa. Thanks to plantar fasciitis in his right foot, Correa hasn’t taken the field for the Twins since July 12th due to the […]
