The Angel Reese double-double record should have bought her one completely normal night of praise. Apparently that is still impossible, because every time Reese does something great, somebody has to drag Caitlin Clark into it like the WNBA only has room for one successful young star at a time. Reese had 15 points and 11...

NHLThe Cale Makar contract officially pushed this summer’s NHL salary explosion into ridiculous territory. First, it was Kaprizov getting 17 sheets. Then Leo Carlsson signed his massive 18 million offer sheet. Celebrini followed and take 18.8 per season making him the highest paid player in the league. Celebrini’s title didn’t last long as Cale Makar...

The Connor Hellebuyck trade conversation might finally be the one that blows up the quiet end of the NHL summer. Hell, it might just be getting started. Detroit is allegedly interviewing new GMs and whoever they hire will almost immediately need to come to a decision with their gold medalist. However, this blog isn’t about...

The NFL finally did it. Beginning with the 2026 season, there will no longer be an AFC vs. NFC Pro Bowl game, and honestly.. GOOD. The NFL third-place game has never had a better opportunity to make the dumbest comeback imaginable. I actually like part of what the NFL is doing here. Keep naming 88...

The Marc-Andre Fleury Hall of Fame case is going to become a MUCH bigger conversation soon, but Pittsburgh already got the easy part right. The Penguins announced that beloved goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury will be inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame, and obviously.. Flower belongs there. It’s quite the honor for Flower and much deserved....

I’m so tired of hearing, “Well, every owner is a billionaire, tell yours to spend like the Dodgers.” Okay.. HOW? Because this Dodgers competitive advantage goes WAY beyond one billionaire simply caring more than another. The Dodgers are expected to shield more than $1.3 BILLION from revenue sharing over the 25-year life of their local-TV...

Harrison Butker 69-yard field goal is a ridiculous sentence to type, but apparently that is where we are with NFL kickers now. Butker drilled one from 69 yards for Kansas City against Tampa Bay, and I think I’ve finally reached the point where the NFL should seriously consider narrowing the goal posts. These guys are...

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...

It might be over for our sweet prince. The Will Howard roster spot conversation was supposed to get answered Friday night, and it did, just not the way anybody in Pittsburgh wanted. The Steelers gave Howard every single thing a fan would have asked for on his behalf. The start. The entire first half. The...

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. X, the everything app, was set ablaze yesterday as fans began reading their...

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,...

Pittsburgh’s mayor is not hiding the ball on this one. Acrisure Stadium and PNC Park both need work, and Corey O’Connor says Pittsburgh stadium public funding belongs in the conversation. His logic is simple enough. The city pulls tax money out of those two buildings, so keeping them standing is good for everybody. Fine. Both...

Cal Raleigh hit 60 home runs last season. Right now he is hitting .159, and that number still does not look real. Line him up next to a couple of other guys and the World Baseball Classic hangover stops sounding like an excuse and starts sounding like the only answer anybody has. Start with Raleigh,...

Caitlin Clark said Kelsey Mitchell is the best scorer in the league, hands down, not even close. Direct quote, the Fever posted it themselves. So if you want to argue Caitlin Clark or Kelsey Mitchell for Fever MVP, one of them already voted. Then two days later Aliyah Boston says basically the same thing and...

We are really stretching for interesting NHL news at this point in August, but a Penguins trade offer nobody knew about just came across my desk. Most NHL teams post a behind the scenes of the draft process throughout the summer. Two days ago the Ottawa Senators did just that and it sparked an interesting...

A Shohei Ohtani opt out is the single most powerful card anyone could hold in professional baseball, and we found out this week he is never going to play it. The Athletic reported that even if Mark Walter sells the Dodgers, Ohtani isn’t going anywhere.. and look, I get it. I just don’t respect it....

We have already given our state of the union for the league’s offseason, and the NHL contract standoffs still sitting out there could change all of it. The grade was middling, but maybe the NHL has more in store for us. A few storylines remain and all could have large impacts to the league. Let’s...

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...
