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 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...

The Penguins are set for a pair of back-to-back games against the Wild and Kraken. By points percentage the Pens are still third in the division and third in the conference but by total points they have fallen into a wild card spot making these two games of large importance. We will see Sam Poulin’s...

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. This comes as the company is looking to looking to focus on its “core UA brands” as it tries...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

I will go over five NHL trades that should happen during the 2025-2026 season based on rumors that are percolating currently throughout the league. 2. Jordan Kyrou traded to the Carolina Hurricanes. This would be a very difficult trade to pull off but everyone knows how aggressive GM Eric Tulsky can be (see Rantanen last...

When the air downtown felt electric, fireworks blew over the Allegheny, and black and gold wasn’t just a color. It was a damn identity. You could feel it in your chest. The Super Bowl was expected. The Cup was realistic. The city moved different. 2009, 2016, 2017. We were alive. That’s gone. Long gone. Now...

The Penguins finished without a win this weekend, losing in a shootout on Saturday and blowing a 2-1 third period lead to LA on Sunday. All in all, I really don’t think it’s as bad as a winless weekend would suggest. I will go over some overarching themes in my thoughts below. I will wrap...

Colorado football is finished. The Buffs are out of bowl contention again, sitting at 3-7, and the Prime Time experiment has run its course. Let’s stop pretending this is working. Deion Sanders isn’t a Power 4 coach. He’s a celebrity who turned Colorado into a media circus instead of a football program. He brought the...

The Pittsburgh Penguins win again. Erik Karlsson looked Norris caliber. Evgeni Malkin is tied for the league lead in assists. Sidney Crosby is leading the league in goals. The power-play is nearly automatic. The penalty kills ferocious. The team is receiving goaltending. When they’re on their game they are suffocating and use their offense to...

It finally happened. The casual crowd is starting to see what real sports fans have been yelling about for years. ESPN does not care about sports coverage anymore. What mattered years ago was breaking news, investigative reporting, longform documentaries, and giving fans access to the games they love. Now it is personalities, debates, carriage stunts,...

Right out of the gate, the trade deadline did not fix anything. It gave some teams shiny new toys and handed others excuses. I looked at every move, every rumor, and every receipt and ranked the five biggest losers from the deadline, all the way to the one that completely destroyed its own future. This...
