Down 3-0 in the series. A miracle season gone by the wayside. All at the hands of their bitter rivals. It sucks, everything about this sucks. Penguins Flyers Game 3 was right there. Pittsburgh came out and took it to them, cashed in on the power play, and had the lead after one. Then the...

The 2026 NFL mock draft conversation has been dominated by hot takes that stop at pick five and call it analysis. I’m going all the way. Thirty-two picks, three trades I’m making myself on top of what’s already been agreed to, and one paragraph per selection explaining exactly why I pulled the trigger. No hedging,...

The Penguins Flyers series is 0-2 Pittsburgh, and there isn’t time for despair. There isn’t time to dwell. There isn’t time for Letang to find the fountain of youth. There is only time to win two games in Philadelphia. The Penguins are down 2-0. Game two, last night, showed a much better version of the...

The Aaron Rodgers Steelers 2026 saga is running the exact same play it ran in 2025. No decision. No timeline. No obligation. And Pittsburgh sitting on 12 draft picks in a draft happening in their own building, still waiting for a 42-year-old free agent to decide if he wants to play football. Draft a quarterback...

Penguins Flyers Game 1 playoffs the team oozing with playoff experience and veterans looked like the moment was overwhelming in game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Truth be told, I am not necessarily shocked about the outcome of the game. The Flyers were the hotter team coming into the game seemingly playing playoff hockey...

The Dexter Lawrence trade happened. Giants get the No. 10 pick, Lawrence gets a fresh start in Cincinnati, and now every front office in the league knows this draft is a two-way market. More 2026 NFL draft trades are coming. Three of them are obvious. Here they are. 2026 NFL Draft Trades Should Start with...

In the most predictable move in NHL history, they finally released the schedule for round 1 last night around 1am Eastern Standard Time. Part of that decision was due to the dreadful Pacific Division being undecided until the conclusion of the game’s last night. Nevertheless, the first round is now official, and the matchups are...

A Pirates Mike Trout trade needs to happen. Not explore it. Not ask around about it as a box-checking exercise. Go get him. I know how that sounds. I’m not walking it back. The Pirates are 10-7 and sitting in first place in the NL Central right now. Paul Skenes is the best pitcher in...

The Penguins benched nearly their entire lineup last night and lost to the Blues 7-5. Who cares, though? The playoffs are officially here, and the Penguins will have home ice in round 1. After the weekend, it was revealed that it would indeed be the team from that heroin riddled part of Eastern Pennsylvania, matching...

Dallas and Minnesota are playing each other in the first round of the NHL playoffs again. Not for the first time. Not for the second time. The third time in ten years, same two franchises, same division, same result baked into the bracket before a single puck drops. And every time it happens, the NHL...

The Crosby Ovechkin rivalry might be at an end. With the Penguins locked into their playoff spot, they played back-to-back games against Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals, who are fighting for their playoff livelihood. The Penguins played neither game with their full complement of players, each game saw at least five players “out” with injury...

What an absolutely perfect video from the Penguins PR staff last night. Moments after the Penguins defeated the New Jersey Devils by a score of 5-2 the Penguins put out this video: All year the team has been asked about the script that was seemingly pre-written about them. Every period of sustained success early in...

Win and secure your spot. That is what is in front of the Pittsburgh Penguins today. They have put themselves in a spot where they completely control their destiny. From a season that began with expectations of Gavin McKenna to scoring at a franchise historical rate and having home ice in the first round. It...

The five-game win streak is over, the Padres handed the Pirates a 5-0 shutout Monday night at PNC Park, and the most honest conversation we need to be having right now is about this outfield. Not the bullpen. Not the lineup depth. The Pirates outfield defense. Because it is bad, it was bad before Monday,...

I love football in the snow. Always have. Watching two teams grind it out on a frozen field in January while guys can barely feel their hands is some of the best sports television you can find. The elements don’t ruin football. They make it. Cold weather baseball in April works the same way. You...

What a weekend. Holy shit. A combined 14 goals were scored by the Pittsburgh Penguins against the reigning back-to-back Stanley Cup Champions. Those 14 goals put the Penguins in 2nd for goals scored in the entire league. That seems shocking to most, but I called this after watching training camp in person. I said on...

The Pittsburgh Pirates win 3-2 on a Nick Yorke walkoff double in the 9th inning and the best part is they did it on a day when nothing went clean. No home runs. Starter didn’t get deep. Bullpen had to bail them out. Still won. Baltimore had every opportunity to steal this game and the...

The NFL replacement refs 2026 panic is getting louder and I’m here to tell you it’s being driven by people who have somehow convinced themselves the current officials are doing a good job. They’re not. They haven’t been for years. The same refs everyone is rushing to defend are the ones who told Jesse James...
