Last season, it seemed like there would be no chance that Matt Eberflus would return to the Chicago Bears as their head coach in 2024. He didn’t have the best reputation early because the team did a lot of losing in his first two seasons. It certainly wasn’t all on him as the roster was in shambles, which made it hard to win. Eberflus didn’t do a good job with the media, which made people wonder about his ability to lead this franchise. The Bears had a strong end to the 2023 season, which cooled the seat down just a…

It’s hard to imagine anyone expecting more out of LA Rams rookie wide receiver Puka Nacua after he shattered the All-Time NFL Rookie Receiving Records. Unless, of course, you are Puka Nacua. Based on the way he has transformed and sculpted his body in preparation for a new NFL season, it’s pretty obvious that he did not return to the Rams for a second helping of what he did as a rookie. He is aiming far higher than that. Of course, It’s not a news story if we were only talking about an NFL rookie getting in better shape in…

The teams will finish their four-game series after Baltimore’s 6-5 victory Saturday night, when a grand slam from a young hitter and the first pitching victory for a rookie were among the memorable components. Rookie Heston Kjerstad’s fifth-inning grand slam was a big post-game topic about 24 hours after manager Brandon Hyde was expressing pleasure with Colton Cowser’s impact at the plate.

With a new season creeping up on us, it won’t be long before we see some new players take on expanded roles for the Dallas Cowboys. It happens every year. Forecasting these surprise performances can be a little tricky as some of them we can see coming, but others come out of nowhere. Regardless, it’s still a fun exercise to play Nostradamus and try to predict some of the surprise contributions from players who have otherwise been rather quiet. Many factors play into larger roles as sometimes it can be related to a new opportunity attributed to a vacated spot…
Tennessee Vols head coach Tony Vitello let all of the emotions out after advancing to the College World Series on Sunday night via UT’s win against Evansville in game three of the Knoxville Super Regional. Vitello took exception to a question that was asked by a reporter after Tennessee’s loss against Evansville on Saturday (which forced a game three in the Super Regional).
