The college basketball world has been silent about it, but we all know that it is true: Duke is the best basketball team in the land. If rankings were any indication, that would not be a true statement. Kentucky is ranked #1 in the country right now. But it is only a matter of time […]

The Browns have been the NFL’s biggest joke for years now. Cleveland has reached the playoffs only two times since 1990. So, you can imagine that the Browns are starving for a playoff berth. And at 7-5, they are in a good position to play beyond the regular season. Still, something is holding them back […]

The Boston Red Sox were one of the busiest teams at the trade deadline this past season. They traded 80% of their starting rotation, including their undisputable ace, Jon Lester. Boston also dealt their starting shortstop, Stephen Drew, to the Yankees. In return, the Red Sox received such players as Yoenis Cespedes, Joe Kelly, and […]

Phoenix Suns guard Eric Bledsoe is one of the NBA’s brightest young stars. On off-days, though, he serves as a basketball analyst. According to Bledsoe, the Kentucky Wildcats would beat the Philadelphia 76ers in a 7-game series. No, that’s not a bad typo. Bledsoe certainly meant it. The Wildcats, college basketball’s #1 team, are sitting […]

If you were a part of the college football playoff committee, where would you rank the Ohio State Buckeyes? Would they be included in your top-4 or not? That’s the question that the real selection committee will have to answer once the regular season ends. The Buckeyes, winners of eight straight, continue to ascend the […]

The rich just became richer today. According to multiple sources, the St. Louis Cardinals landed outfielder Jason Heyward in a trade with the Atlanta Braves. In exchange, the Braves will receive upstart pitcher Shelby Miller and Tyrell Jenkins. This deal may seem surprising at first, but it shouldn’t be. Heyward was once the Braves most […]

When LeBron, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love joined forces this past summer, expectations were high. Not only did the Cavs become playoff contenders, but they also became title contenders. So far, though, the revamped Cavaliers haven’t responded well to all of the pressure. At this point in the season, nothing really matters. The Cavaliers have […]

This year, the Dallas Cowboys have been the biggest surprise in the NFL. At 6-3, the Cowboys appear to be rolling, but they aren’t perfect. Dallas is banged up and the absence of Tony Romo last week had a big effect on the team’s play. So, are the Cowboys the real deal or has their […]

I like to think of Peyton Manning as the NFL’s version of Derek Jeter. He plays the game the right way and is respected and admired by everyone. Andrew Luck, Manning’s successor in Indy, is headed down a similar path of sustained excellence. However, will Luck ever reach Manning’s level? Aside from the fact that […]

There are plenty of good teams in the NHL today. There’s the Chicago Blackhawks, Boston Bruins, Pittsburgh Penguins and the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings. But, what if I told you that the best team in the NHL isn’t any of those squads? I live in Minnesota, the state of hockey, so you can […]

Cleveland fans are optimistic and hungry for a title. But, what can we really expect from this year’s Cavaliers team? In his first year with Miami, LeBron […]

For more than a year, Derrick Rose has experienced both pain and frustration. He missed basically all of last season and part of the season before with a knee injury. Now, he’s back. Well, at least we hope he’s back for good. And, Rose looked like the 2012 version of himself on Monday against the […]

As probably every NFL fan knows, Peyton Manning broke Brett Favre’s career passing TD record Sunday night. Manning threw No. 509 to Demaryius Thomas and went on to throw yet another to Thomas in the third quarter. Manning now has 510 career TDs and he is not even done yet. With that said, does anyone […]

Last night, we figured out which two teams will play in this year’s World Series. And, even though they aren’t the two teams that we expected to reach the Fall Classic, it should still be a fun series. So, who will win? Well, I’ve got the answer. At the beginning of the postseason, both the […]

Early on in the NFL season, you can begin to tell which teams are headed to the playoffs and which teams are going to have to wait one more year. Or, if you’re the Oakland Raiders, five more years. There are plenty of surprising teams with winning records right now, but which teams are legit? […]
