There aren’t many guarantees in life, but one thing that seems to be a guarantee is that, no matter what, Jaromir Jagr is going to spend his time playing hockey. The NHL legend has since returned to his native Czech Republic after retiring from the NHL, and even at age 51, he is still going […]

The Los Angeles Lakers’ struggles since their In-Season Tournament victory continued on Wednesday night when they suffered a 124-108 loss at the hands of the Chicago Bulls. The night wasn’t a total wash, though, as LeBron James helped crush the Bulls mascot, Benny the Bull, by riding with his teammate Anthony Davis in a very […]

The Memphis Grizzlies were thrilled to finally get Ja Morant back after his 25-game suspension to start the season, and his spectacular season-debut, which culminated with him hitting a game-winning buzzer-beater against the New Orleans Pelicans, certainly won’t destroy the hype surrounding his return. However, Morant’s legal troubles aren’t fully behind him just yet. Morant […]

The Atlanta Braves have been one of the busier teams to open the MLB offseason, swinging several trades to beef up their roster depth so far. Now, they are starting to take to the free agent market in an effort to add to their roster, and they recently made an interesting signing, although it’s not […]

The Boston Celtics suffered a tough overtime loss to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, but had to quickly put that behind them to take on the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night. Even though they were without their best player in Jayson Tatum and their sixth man Al Horford, the C’s cruised to a […]

The Tennessee Titans were officially eliminated from playoff contention in Week 15 when they suffered a 19-16 loss to the C.J. Stroud-less Houston Texans, and to make matters even worse, their talented rookie quarterback Will Levis suffered an ankle injury late in the game. While the Titans have nothing to play for, they’d obviously like […]

The Chicago Blackhawks picked up a gritty 3-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday night, and once again, it was due in large part to rookie sensation Connor Bedard. Bedard racked up a pair of assists and six shots on goal throughout the night, and generally appeared to be the most dangerous player on […]

The Golden State Warriors picked up a big 132-126 victory over the Boston Celtics in overtime on Tuesday night, and while everyone is going to pay attention to Stephen Curry’s late game heroics, there was an under-the-radar performance from Trayce Jackson-Davis that may have been even more important for the Warriors along the way. Jackson-Davis […]

The Golden State Warriors were pretty excited to pick up a 132-126 win over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night, and it was a rowdy environment given the history between these two squads. In a sense, some folks may be curious if head coach Steve Kerr believed that the environment resembled the “South Beach club” […]

The Memphis Grizzlies waited 25 games to see their superstar point guard in Ja Morant take the floor this season, and it certainly was worth the wait. Morant’s big night in his season debut (34 PTS, 8 AST, 6 REB, 12-24 FGM) saw him power Memphis to victory over the New Orleans Pelicans with a […]

The Los Angeles Dodgers find a way to bring in a new superstar every offseason, but this year, they’ve already brought in two, and they may not be done yet either. After signing two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani to a massive ten-year, $700 million deal in free agency, the Dodgers followed that up by pulling off […]

The Milwaukee Brewers are in an interesting spot this offseason, as the front office is trying to decide whether or not they want to try to contend again in the National League Central, or whether it’s time for them to undergo a rebuild. The guy who has been impacted by this the most is Corbin […]

The Baltimore Ravens took another step towards securing the number one seed in the AFC on Sunday night when they picked up a 23-7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Unfortunately, along the way they lost breakout rookie running back Keaton Mitchell to what appeared to be a serious knee injury, and the Ravens worst fears […]

The Atlanta Falcons have had another up-and-down 2023 campaign, but their latest outing, a 9-7 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 15, is likely going to represent rock bottom for this team. Desmond Ridder looked awful under center once again for Atlanta, and now head coach Arthur Smith has a big decision to make […]

The Dallas Cowboys were riding high ahead of their Week 15 action after having beaten the division rival Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14. They quickly came crashing back to earth, though, thanks to a 31-10 loss at the hands of the Buffalo Bills. The Cowboys were thoroughly outplayed from start to finish, and Mike McCarthy […]

The New England Patriots came crashing back down to earth in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs, suffering a 27-17 loss for their 11th defeat of the season. After the Pats somehow grinded out a win against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, Bill Belichick and company couldn’t concoct a game plan that helped […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks have had a busy start to the offseason after coming up just short in the 2023 World Series, with their latest move being to re-sign All-Star outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to a three-year, $42 million deal. And yet, even with that deal, they might not be done just yet, as it sounds […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks are looking to run it back after their magical World Series adventure in 2023, and they took a big step towards doing that on Sunday afternoon. With MLB free agency fully underway, the Diamondbacks opted to find a way to bring back one of their own, re-signing All-Star outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. […]

The Miami Dolphins currently have a 10-0 lead over the New York Jets, but they were dealt a pretty big blow when Tyreek Hill was ruled out shortly before kickoff. That meant Jaylen Waddle would have a bigger role in the offense, but he picked up an early chest injury against the Jets that briefly […]

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a massive Week 15 contest with the Green Bay Packers on their schedule for Sunday afternoon, and the game could go a long way towards determining whether or not they end up in the playoffs this year. The Bucs may not be doing themselves any favors, though, as they have […]

The Chicago Bulls suffered a crushing loss to the Miami Heat on Saturday night, watching a fourth quarter rally fall short after Jimmy Butler nailed a game-winning buzzer-beater to give the Heat a 118-116 victory. The Bulls had a win in their grasp, but some late game miscues led to the Heat snatching victory from […]

The Milwaukee Bucks picked up their fifth win in their past six contests on Saturday night by absolutely throttling the Detroit Pistons 146-114, and unsurprisingly, it was due in large part to another strong performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo. While winning is always fun, Antetokounmpo probably enjoyed a moment later in the game when he was […]

The Houston Texans have had a lot go right for them this season, but over the past week or so, everything has begun to unravel. The Texans lost to the New York Jets in Week 14, saw C.J. Stroud and Nico Collins exit early with injuries, and now will be without Stroud in Week 15 […]

The Los Angeles Rams are firmly in the NFC playoff hunt, and if they want to truly boost their postseason hopes, picking up a win over the lowly Washington Commanders in Week 15 is a must. Los Angeles is dealing with some injury concerns ahead of this game, though, with all eyes being on superstar […]

The Indianapolis Colts are one of the more surprising playoff contenders as we enter Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season. After drafting Anthony Richardson with the fourth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, this was largely expected to be a rebuild year. Instead, they are 7-6 and sitting in the seventh seed of […]

The 2023 season has been a bit of a rollercoaster ride for the Pittsburgh Steelers and their fans. Their play on the field hasn’t been particularly good, but they still have a 7-6 record and the sixth seed in the AFC. Of course, they still need to pick up a win in Week 15 against […]

The Philadelphia Eagles have spent much of the 2023 campaign in cruise control, but they have hit a few roadblocks over the past two weeks, suffering tough losses to the San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys in consecutive weeks. The hope is that they will be able to bounce back in Week 15 against the […]

Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season certainly got off to an explosive start on Thursday Night Football, and the Cincinnati Bengals will look to make their mark when they take on the Minnesota Vikings for the first Saturday game of the week. With kickoff quickly approaching, it’s time for us to lay out our […]

The New York Knicks picked up a huge 139-123 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Friday night, and it was largely due to a standout performance from Jalen Brunson (50 PTS, 9 AST, 6 REB, 5 STL, 17-23 FGM, 9-9 3PM). Brunson was so good that it led to head coach Tom Thibodeau hilariously roasting […]

The New York Knicks were viewed as the underdog for their Friday night contest against the Phoenix Suns, but they ended up prevailing by a final score of 139-122. This was due in large part to a mammoth game from Jalen Brunson (50 PTS, 9 AST, 6 REB, 5 STL, 17-23 FGM, 9-9 3PM), and […]

For most folks, Week 15 signals the start of the fantasy football playoffs. While teams across the NFL are fighting for playoff positioning, fantasy football owners likely already know their postseason status with Week 15 upon us. Every week in fantasy is a big one, but now that the playoffs are here, it’s game time, […]

Fantasy football playoffs are officially upon us. While the 2023 NFL regular season winding down, the fantasy football postseason is just getting started, and whether you are playing in single-elimination or a two-week playoff format, Week 15 is going to be huge for owners whose teams are still fighting for a championship. As always, having […]

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are fresh off winning the NBA’s first ever In-Season Tournament, and so far this season, James has proven that he is still one of the best players in the entire league. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like he has a fan in Colby Covington, who took a second to […]

The Phoenix Suns’ 119-116 win over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night was a hard-fought contest, but things took a turn for the worse when Draymond Green unleashed a spinning backhand hit on Jusuf Nurkic that quickly got Green ejected from the game. The NBA then suspended Green indefinitely for the incident, and Kevin […]

The MLB offseason is in full swing, and while teams across the league continue to look for ways to improve their rosters, it’s never too soon to begin to look towards Spring Training. While we are still months away from pitchers and catchers reporting, it looks like the MLB is implementing a new event during […]

Jamal Crawford had a unique NBA career that saw him thrive as a sixth man off the bench and help the role become extremely prominent across the league. While Crawford was a great player who won Sixth Man of the Year three times throughout his career, his name often doesn’t come up in the Hall […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates have amassed quite a collection of young talent over the course of their recent rebuild, with one of their more promising prospects being Endy Rodriguez. Rodroguez broke in with the Pirates last season for 57 games, and the hope was that he would become a crucial piece of their lineup in the […]

There were a handful of teams in the race to sign Shohei Ohtani in free agency, but he ultimately chose to sign a massive 10-year, $700 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers to help reestablish them as the team to beat in the entire league. One team that came up short in their quest […]

The Denver Nuggets grinded out a hard-fought 114-106 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night, and the win was made even more impressive when considering that Nikola Jokic didn’t play in the second half after he was ejected late in the first half. Jokic’s ejection was surprising, but it sounds like a specific magic […]
