Once again, the Chicago Bulls find themselves at a critical juncture this offseason. As echoes of last summer’s decision-making reverberate—a summer defined by Nikola Vučević’s free agency and pivotal roster decisions—the spotlight now shifts to DeMar DeRozan. The veteran’s impending free agency casts a looming question over the Bulls: Forge ahead with the existing core, […]

The NHL offseason is always rife with speculation and anticipation, with fans eagerly awaiting the flurry of activity that accompanies free agency. This year, one name that has been circulating in hockey circles as a potential game-changer is Steven Stamkos. At 34 years old, Stamkos brings a wealth of experience and skill to the table, […]

Hey, as long as they allow it, keep doing it. Cubs rookie Pete Crow-Armstrong used his helmet to touch second base after drilling a ball down the right field line. Mets outfielder Starling Marte, who has a great arm, launched a great throw to second base and PCA had to get creative, sliding into the […]

If we’ve learned anything about GM Ryan Poles over the past three off-seasons, it’s that he has a keen understanding of how to manipulate the media to his advantage. Leading up to the 2024 draft, there were serious rumblings about the Chicago Bears having an interest in trading down from #9. It made sense. They […]

The Blackhawks had plenty of issues as a team this season, but perhaps the biggest was the amount of goals they let in the net. Chicago allowed 3.52 goals per gam over the course of the year, good for fourth-most in the league. On the other hand, Blackhawks goalies battled for a save percentage of […]

Dansby Swanson Gets Day Off vs. Mets I know that Dansby Swanson prides himself in playing most if not all 162 games, but like we saw last season maybe there are times when the manager has to step in and give a guy a day off instead of letting a problem get worse. The Cubs […]

Jefferson Rojas is quickly proving why so many Cubs fans who closely follow the minor leagues believed the shortstop should have been a top-100 prospect heading into the 2024 season. After cracking the top-100 a couple weeks ago, the next Cubs star continues to climb Baseball America’s prospect list. In the latest updated rankings, Rojas […]

Luis Robert Jr. could return from his hip flexor injury sooner than expected. In a new development, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Robert Jr. is “at 80% running in comeback from hip flexor strain and is taking batting practice.” He is on the right path in his recovery process, though manager […]

The Chicago Cubs are starting the month of May with a winning record and are well within reach of the National League Central division. Before the season began, and considering the difficulty of the April schedule, anyone would have been okay with the Cubs being .500 at this point. Then, when you factor in the […]

The Chicago Bears knew a change was necessary at quarterback. GM Ryan Poles wanted to find somebody that fit his vision for the organization. To do that, the first step was settling the Justin Fields question. That meant finding the embattled quarterback a new home. Poles could’ve sent him anywhere. Merely take the highest offer […]

Shōta Imanaga does not have a secret identity or an alter-ego. He is just an extraordinary pitcher rifling right through his first month as a Major League Baseball player. He’s also proven to be the best free agency signing for the Chicago Cubs this past offseason. Imanaga spun another gem against the New York Mets […]

What’s a baseball game without a bit of excitement for the Chicago Cubs these days? If you like offense, the Cubs vs. New York Mets game on Wednesday night was not for you. Both teams combined for ten hits and thirteen strikeouts on the night. Again, Shōta Imanaga was ridiculous for the Cubs, going seven […]

The Chicago Bears had the fewest picks of any NFL team in the 2024 draft. That meant GM Ryan Poles could afford zero mistakes. Every selection carried extra importance. If he missed on too many, this class threatened to derail the Bears’ rebuilding efforts. Thankfully, it appears Poles didn’t disappoint. By most accounts, Chicago had […]

The Chicago Bears knew the challenge ahead of them. Caleb Williams was the widely viewed prize of the 2024 draft class. While the Bears did hold the #1 pick and could draft him regardless of his preference, it would behoove them to do everything in their power to get off on the right foot with […]

Talking about Caleb Williams as a quarterback tends to center around certain aspects of his game. People love his mobility and improvisational skills. He has a rare knack for changing the speeds on his throws, showing excellent touch and accuracy. Also, like a baseball player, he can change the angles of his arm to fit […]

The Chicago Cubs have had to weave their way through 2024 thanks to an injury bug sweeping through the team. It started in spring training with Jameson Taillon and Caleb Kilian. Then, ace Justin Steele went down on Opening Day with a hamstring injury. Since then, other big names have joined, too. Outfielder Seiya Suzuki, […]

The Chicago Bears hatched a surprise on day three of the 2024 draft. Everybody in Detroit and at home expected GM Ryan Poles to address the last glaring issue on his roster with his 4th round pick: a pass rusher. However, the Bears pulled a shocking twist when they selected Iowa punter Tory Taylor instead. […]
