The Toronto Raptors have already started their roster overhaul. With OG Anunoby joining the New York Knicks, Masai Ujri will reportedly keep making moves to get his team ready for the future. With that in mind, most people expect Pascal Siakam to be the next player moved. Notably, the Indiana Pacers are reportedly keeping tabs on the PF/C. However, that might not be possible at this time, as NBA insider Kurt Helin reports that the Raptors want Bennedict Mathurin or Jarace Walker in any potential trade involving the Pacers (via NBA Central). Toronto wants Bennedict Mathurin…
New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced the postponement of the Bills-Steelers Wild Card game to Monday with a winter storm in Buffalo. Earlier this week there were some wild reports about the Wild Card game between the Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers playoff game being moved to Cleveland because of a massive winter storm projected over the weekend in Buffalo. The NFL quickly denied that report and said the game would still be played in Buffalo. However, the Bills-Steelers game will still be affected by unsafe blizzard conditions. New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced on Saturday morning that after…
My first thought after hearing the reports that the Bears intended to keep head coach Matt Eberflus in place – and then watching them actually do it on Wednesday – was simple: “The Bears stay the Bears.” No matter who fills the decision-making shoes. No matter what incredible opportunity lies before them to change the future of the franchise. The Bears stay the g— d— Bears. With the No. 1 overall pick and the rights to take a franchise-changing quarterback in its hands, the franchise couldn’t bring itself to dare for true greatness. After days of…
Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby endorsed hiring interim head coach Antonio Pierce on a full-time basis near the end of the regular season and he did the same in a social media post on Friday, but that might not be the end of his push. NFL Media reports that Crosby is expected to explore a trade request if the Raiders opt to hire someone other than Pierce. That report is part of a larger report about Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh’s potential return to the NFL because the Raiders “continue to weigh” a pursuit of their former quarterbacks coach.…
Michigan Wolverines head coach and 2023 College Football Playoff National Championship winner Jim Harbaugh plans to meet with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport. Speculation about Harbaugh’s departure has been present for a few years. It became so prominent that the Michigan Wolverines added a “no-shop” clause to Harbaugh’s contract extension. The extension would have been a 10-year deal worth $125 million, according to Rapaport. Harbaugh never accepted the extension due to the fact that the clause would not allow him to talk with NFL teams while being the head coach…
Today is the day. The Cleveland Browns and the Houston Texans are meeting up in the AFC Wild Card playoff game. The two teams will face off at NRG Stadium in Houston and major third-party ticket websites like Vivid Seats, StubHub, SeatGeek, TicketCity, MegaSeats and Ticketmaster are still selling seats to the must-watch game. The ticket prices have hovered around $100 for most of this week so it’s a great opportunity for Browns and Texans fans to see their teams in action live without breaking the bank. I found the cheapest single tickets for the game today as…
Anthony Elanga remains an injury doubt ahead of Nottingham Forest’s Premier League clash against Brentford next weekend. The 21-year-old has been one of Forest’s standout performers this season following his £15 million move from Manchester United last summer. Elanga missed Forest’s 2-2 draw against Blackpool in the FA Cup third round last Sunday after he suffered a knock during the victory against United on December 30 Espirito Santo has already ruled Elanga out of Forest’s FA Cup replay against Blackpool next Wednesday, which indicates that the winger may not be fully fit for the team’s trip to Brentford on January 20. When asked about the extent…
The NFL made a controversial decision Friday on the location for the Buffalo Bills’ Wild Card matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Buffalo is expected to have a severe winter storm hit during the game scheduled for early Sunday afternoon. Reports came out Thursday that the league could move the contest to Cleveland. However, the NFL refuted the report. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Friday morning the NFL was monitoring weather conditions after the National Weather Service updated the expected conditions around Highmark Stadium for Sunday’s game. It might be too “difficult” or “impossible” for fans to travel to the game: Heavy…
On Thursday, the star-studded Phoenix Suns made easy work of the division-rival Los Angeles Lakers, with Bradley Beal having one of his best performances yet with his new team as he lit up LeBron James and company for a game-high 37 points. Even though the win over the Lakers was a great sign that the team might be progressing after consecutive losses to the Memphis Grizzlies and Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix could be one of the teams attempting to improve its roster ahead of the NBA trade deadline on February 8. x 2 seconds of 47 seconds On Thursday, the…
The Green Bay Packers are looking to make a statement on Sunday. Their first year with Jordan Love under center resulted in a playoff berth. Something his predecessor, Aaron Rodgers, was unable to do. However, the Packers are far from being considered a Super Bowl contender this season. A win could change that. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are also looking to make a statement. The last time they advanced to the NFC Championship game was in 1995. Dallas wants to prove to the world that they are a real championship contending team. Today, the Packers brought back a familiar…
