by Zak Drapeau and Matt Hylen Start 'Em (Matt Hylen) Quarterbacks Photo Credit to AP Photo/David Dermer Jordan Love vs CHI Love finally came out of his slump last week on Thanksgiving, producing a stellar 234-yard and 4 TD performance. This is the kind of play managers have been hoping for from Jordan Love, who is talented enough to break down any defense. Look for Love to have another great week against a Bears defense that is bottom-10 in football in fantasy points allowed

Photo Credit to Platinumlist Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a three-way fight for the Drivers' Championship The penultimate round of the 2025 F1 season in Qatar is done and dusted, with the fate of the world championship coming down to the season's final race. The race itself was shaping to be as expected, extremely difficult to overtake for drivers and difficult to watch for viewers, but it did give us a result that will leave another mark on an insane Drivers' Championship.

Photo Credit to NBC Sports Boston Another primetime game for the New England Patriots, as they will take a 10-2 record and put the 9-game win streak on the line against the 2-10 New York Giants. With a bye on the horizon and the number one seed fully in play, a lot is at stake for the Patriots this week. However, based on the teams' records, this should be an easy game for the Pats, right? In my opinion, this game might be a bit closer than meets the eye. So, with that in min

My Red Sox 2025-26 Offseason Wishlist
Credit to Barry Chin/The Boston Globe The future of the Boston Red Sox has not looked this bright in some time. Whether it be a budding superstar in Roman Anthony, a Cy Young-caliber ace in Garrett Crochet, or multiple key young offensive and defensive pieces to help the cause, we could see the Sox go from a fringe playoff team to World Series contenders. It is this sort of potential that makes the urgency to improve the team all the more important as the offseason begins. Th
