Tomorrow the men’s Olympic hockey tournament will begin. There are plenty of storylines to discuss; Tom Wilson playing with McDavid, Nylander hurt for Sweden, who starts for Canada, and how will the US perform we will discuss most of these topics throughout this blog. First, I think there is a clear pecking order for these...

If the Raiders are sitting at No. 1, trading down and passing on Fernando Mendoza is only defensible if you’re getting a ransom that makes the rest of the roster better overnight. Anything less is just another version of the same old Raiders cycle: postpone quarterback, cross your fingers, and act shocked when it blows...

What would it take for a defensive player to win NFL MVP again? A season so ridiculous it feels illegal, plus a year where the quarterbacks don’t hand voters an easy choice. And even then, I’m not confident it happens, because the MVP has basically turned into “Best QB Season / Best QB Story.” Defensive...

Thursday night was the final game before the Olympic break in the NHL. The Penguins had one game remaining on their schedule against the red-hot Buffalo Sabres. Blake Lizotte’s wife went into labor forcing him to miss the game. Then Noel Acciari got sick forcing him out of the lineup. This was no big deal...

Super Bowl LX is going to expose the team that can’t live outside its favorite script. New England and Seattle both have a “comfort food” offense they run to when things get tight, and I think Seattle’s defense is built to shove the Patriots into hero ball. That’s where this game flips. Opening Night on...

A day after the worst performance of the season, the Penguins traveled to Long Island to play one of their biggest games yet. The effort level was significantly better. The overall performance was significantly better than the night before too. Hell, the Penguins thoroughly outplayed the Islanders last night. Yet the Penguins ended up losing...

Nine NFL international games in 2026 is way too many, and it’s going to make Sundays worse for the fans who actually pay the bills. One or two overseas games are a fun novelty. Nine turns it into a gimmick that chips away at home-field football and jacks up season ticket pain. NFL International Games...

The Penguins entered Monday night for Penguins vs Senators with a six-game winning streak and a 13-2-2 record since Christmas.. That record is now 13-3-2 after arguably their worst performance of the season. The only other performance that might rival it was a 4-0 loss in December, also to the Senators. The Penguins really had...

The Penguins have won five games in a row, again. They absolutely torched the Blackhawks last night winning by a score of 6-2. The craziest part is, the team looked asleep in the first period. They ended the game outshooting the Hawks 44-20 despite being outshot 9-8 in the first period. The rest of the...

The NHL is 37 days away from the official trade deadline. However, there are only seven days until the Olympic roster freeze, which may also act as a secondary trade deadline. The Penguins have shifted perspective on their team. Before the season, the Penguins were thought to be the only true seller in the league....

The Penguins played their worst game of the four-game road trip. Fortunately, they were playing the worst team in the NHL, the Vancouver Canucks, and were able to hold them off to win 3-2. First, shoutout Stuuuuuuuuuu Skinner. What a freaking great performance. The Penguins were not great in this game. Stu stood on is...

Steelers hiring Mike McCarthy is proof they’re fine with 10-7 and a quick playoff exit, and I’m done pretending it’s a plan. This is the most Steelers thing the Steelers could do in 2026: dress up “same old” as “new leadership” and hope the fanbase shuts up because the guy’s from Pittsburgh. If you’re mad,...

The Bills firing Sean McDermott and promoting Brandon Beane feels like ego, not a plan, and it could waste Josh Allen’s prime. This isn’t some clean, confident “next step” for a contender. It looks like a front office power grab that blew up the chain of command and expected everyone to clap. Now Buffalo’s searching...

I am in a dangerous situation. I have spoken about the Pens being back. However, I think they are more than back… they can go on a run. No one, except Colorado, scares me. I think all of America, and Canada, would have predicated a 6-2 win last night in Oilers vs. Penguins. Those that...

The Penguins are currently 2-0 on their western Canada trip, beating the dilapidated Calgary Flames last night 4-1. This team is special because of Kyle Dubas. Doesn’t matter who’s in the lineup, they find a way. Kris Letang caught the injury bug and missed last night’s action, so too did Erik Karlsson. The team’s top...

The Dolphins hiring Jeff Hafley is a bad bet, and the Titans hiring Robert Saleh is the same bad bet with a different logo. This is the NFL’s most predictable failure cycle: owners get seduced by “toughness” and “leadership,” hire a defensive mind to run the whole building, then act stunned when the offense stays...

The Seattle Kraken were shockingly in a playoff position Monday afternoon. Their -11-goal differential became a -14 differential after they matched up with Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Kraken try to lull their opponents to sleep by forcing their opponents to the outside, and downlow, and try to capitalize on mistakes. That’s a...

Dodgers fans yelling “cry harder” after Kyle Tucker are missing the point: nobody thinks you’re cheating. We’re mad at MLB’s broken setup, and it could cost us a season. You want the honest truth? I don’t blame you for celebrating. Your team just went back to back in 2024 and 2025, and then turned around...
