The Zach Benson U23 Ranking Defense Doesn’t Hold Up
The Zach Benson U23 ranking came in at 124th, and one of the worst excuses I have ever heard in my life came with it. Yesterday we discussed the most insane article The Athletic has ever allowed to be published, Corey Pronman’s u23 NHL rankings. A bulk of the discourse revolved around Zach Benson. Benson...

Corey Pronman Penguins Rankings: Why Kindel and Murashov Were Too Low
The Corey Pronman Penguins rankings were already a disaster before you even got to the Penguins section. The biggest story in hockey the last few days has unfortunately been the disgusting under 23 player rankings revealed by Corey Pronman of The Athletic.

The Christian McCaffrey Contract Theory Says More About the NFL Than About Him
Christian McCaffrey missed a handful of August practices with tightness, and the sport went straight to the money. The Christian McCaffrey contract theory did not need a leaked text, an agent quote, or a single anonymous source to spread. It needed a calendar. He stopped practicing in the same stretch of August that Bijan Robinson,...

Patrick Mahomes Got Cleared And The Chiefs Plan Is Now A Field Goal Derby
Patrick Mahomes is back and his big idea for this year is handing it off more. Cleared for camp Friday, said he ran too much last season, which, fine, that’s the knee talking. Then Charles Goldman posts the rest of it. “If all else fails, I’ll just hand it off to K9 and let him...

The Penguins Roster Looks Set, But Should It Be?
The Penguins roster looks set. They avoided arbitration with almost all of their restricted free agents. Nick Robertson is the only surefire NHLer that has yet to sign a contract. Ville Koivunen is also awaiting a contract, or a trade, but he would need to have a hell of a training camp to make the...

2026 Stanley Cup Final Is the Best I’ve Ever Seen — Three Games, Three Instant Classics
The 2026 Stanley Cup Final has given us three games and three moments that don’t happen in real life. I’m almost at a complete loss for words for what happened. It’s one thing if you have one crazy game in a series, and sometimes you might even get two. Well, through three games in the...

Steelers Red Zone Offense With Aaron Rodgers Is the Real Problem After Browns 13, Steelers 6
If your “win now” team cannot score 10 points, what exactly are you winning? The Steelers just lost 13-6 to the Browns. They got a late drive inside the Browns 10 and still walked off with nothing. Aaron Rodgers went 21-for-39 for 168 yards, which is the statistical definition of “we were present.” And now...

Lane Kiffin Will Change The College Football Landscape
Lane Kiffin might walk from Ole Miss, and if he does, it will tear the program apart and hand a rival a golden ticket. This is not some offseason rumor that disappears after the Egg Bowl. Multiple sources, including ESPN and Yahoo Sports, confirm Kiffin’s decision is coming fast. The final stretch of the season...

Steph Curry Changed Everything About Basketball, Except The Shoe Game
Lace up, check the ball, let’s talk some hoops… kinda It was announced earlier this week that Under Armour and NBA Star Steph Curry will split from their exclusive shoe branding deal originally signed in 2014.

Texas A&M’s Miracle Comeback Wasn’t Heroic. It Was Proof They’re Fraudulent
Texas A&M wants you to swallow the fairy tale that their 31 to 30 comeback over South Carolina was some team of destiny moment. They want you to pretend a rally from 30 to 3 at half is championship DNA. Grit. Heart. All that Disney channel nonsense. Don’t get played. Comebacks don’t scream dominance. They...

Are the Bruins F**ked?
A frequent reader of the site asked for my thoughts on the Boston Bruins and their team outlook. He is of the thought that this team is screwed. I agree with that thinking. As a matter of fact, I have agreed with that line of thought for a number of years. Even when they broke...

Kansas City Chiefs Fans Deserve This Season so far
Put the parade floats away. Stop printing the “Run It Back Again” shirts. Cancel the Super Bowl LIX travel packages. The Kansas City Chiefs are 5-5. Read that again. Five wins. Five losses. Middle of the road. Not a dynasty, not a dumpster fire. Just average. Through ten games of the 2025 NFL season, the...

Sweet Swedish Stomping
The Penguins tripped on Friday but responding with a stomping of the Nashville Predators on Sunday morning. Friday afternoon the Penguins came out with one of their least sharp performances of the season. Passes were not connecting crisply, offense was non-existent, and the defense was haphazard. Still, the Penguins were up 1-0 with about a...

The SEC is a Joke to College Football
Let’s cut the crap. The SEC walks around like a spoiled heavyweight who hasn’t actually knocked anyone out in years but still tells the whole bar he’s undefeated. Alabama gets smacked. Texas gets cooked. The conference eats haymakers all weekend. And somehow these people twist the losses into a toughness seminar. Only the SEC can...

Penguins Pipeline Is Fine: Why Benny Yinzer Is Wrong
The owner and operator of this wonderful website is a relatively smart guy. His most recent blog for the most part articulated why he is smart. Steelers and Pirates are poop. They stink, they are hopeless, and honestly the way those franchises are being ran is disrespectful to the patrons of my favorite city on...

Indiana’s 10-0 Run Just Proved the 12-Team Playoff Saved College Football
Stop pretending the college football four-team playoff was about justice. It was a country club. Same cast, same endings, same excuses when outsiders knocked on the door. If your school did not have the logo or the history, you needed to be perfect and then some. One loss and your season was erased because the...
