I have been watching Michigan downplaying the Ohio State rivalry for 12 straight days now, and yesterday the quarterback finally topped everybody. John Fanta of NBC Sports asked Bryce Underwood how different The Game is from every other one on the schedule. “It’s just another game. Just, with guys in a different color. That’s how...

Here is the part nobody puts in the Ben Roethlisberger first ballot Hall of Fame argument, and it’s the part that actually decides it. A guy needs 80 percent of a 50 person committee. 40 votes. Which means eleven people can sit in a room, say nothing, vote no, walk out, and never once have...

Shedeur Sanders first-team reps went to zero on Saturday, on the exact day Todd Monken stood in front of reporters and said Sanders was getting them. And it’s worse than a coach changing his mind, because there’s already a plan. NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reported Cleveland intends to give Watson and Sanders one preseason start...

My 2027 NFL Hall of Fame ballot has four names on it, and one of them is going to make some of you close the tab. Rob Gronkowski, Ben Roethlisberger, Adrian Peterson, Andrew Whitworth. Before you get to the part where you yell at me, understand what these guys are walking into. Per Darin Gantt...

After Ville Koivunen signed his monster, albeit bizarre, deal the Penguins forward logjam has even more questions than answers.. Even before the eight year extension handled out to Ville, I had already written a blog projecting the lineup which failed to include any of the prospects. It seems Dubas is intent of further muddying the...

Thirty-nine years ago, today God’s gift to hockey was born. On 8/7/87 Sir Sidney Crosby came into this world and has honestly been dominating the sport of hockey ever since. For over half of his lifetime, he has been a Pittsburgh Penguin. In a few months he will have spent over half of his lifetime...

Everybody spent this week sharing the seven hours a day quote, and while that was going on the Chiefs started lining Patrick Mahomes under center at camp. That is a much bigger deal than it sounds. Last season the Chiefs lined up in shotgun on 80.6 percent of their snaps. Third most in the entire...

Kyle Dubas has been somewhat busy the past week, re-signing Ville Koivunen and extending Tommy Novak. The Ville Koivunen contract is the one that’s going to make you spit out your coffee. We go through these signings in chronological order and start with Tommy Novak. Novak floated between third line winger and second line center...

ESPN is out here praying my football team misses the Super Bowl and honestly? I’m not even mad. I get it. Per the Daily Mail, people inside that building are crossing their fingers the Pittsburgh Steelers don’t make it, because Aaron Rodgers got on their own airwaves and lit them up and now nobody there...

Yahoo finally put college fantasy football on the site, drafts open August 3rd, and I already know exactly how your league is going to go. Everybody opens the app, takes the first eight names off the default list, feels great about themselves, and then it gets to pick 140 and the whole room goes quiet...

Vegas just told me Ohio State is losing three games this season and I’d like somebody to come sit down and explain that one to me. Nine and a half. That’s the number, and it’s the loudest of the college football win total overs sitting on my board this year. This is a team that...

Tarik Skubal is a Dodger and I am out on this sport. Not the season, the sport. There is no reason to watch this anymore and I’m not going to sit here and pretend otherwise for four more months. Every Skubal trade salary cap argument you’re going to read this week is going to get...

Both 2026 NHL offer sheets got matched and not one player changed teams. All the talk was this summer was going to be insane. The free agent market lacked to the point that everyone needed to make trades to reach their goals. There were several high profile RFA’s on the market ripe for offer sheets....

I made my 2026 college football playoff bracket for this season and six of the twelve aren’t even my opinion. The format filled those in for me. One of them is the Notre Dame automatic playoff bid, a rule somebody wrote specifically so Notre Dame never has to feel left out again. Four spots go...

Everybody wants to know one thing. Is the Celebrini contract bad for the Sharks? We have seen Leo Carlsson get a monster contract. We watched Bedard take less then he could have. Jason Robertson also signed for less than his market value, and he desired value. Celebrini, unlike the other players listed, was not an...

34,406 people in Detroit stood up twice on Wednesday for a guy their own team spent February telling an arbitration panel was overpaid. If you want to know why the Tigers are trading Tarik Skubal, and it sure looks like they are, stop looking at the standings. Look at February. Why the Tigers are trading...

Joey Porter Jr pulled into Latrobe on Tuesday, the same day Denzel Ward became the highest paid defensive back in the history of the sport, and by the end of the day Joey was on the PUP list with a bad back. Everybody wants to argue about the money. The thing that actually decides this...

MLB owners are ready to cancel the whole 2027 season and I hope they do it. I’m a Pirates fan. What the hell are you threatening me with? This is what baseball needs, a cap and a floor. A real MLB salary floor, not the soft one these guys just put on paper. Some of...
