The Ottawa Senators are giving young Swedish prospect Mika Zibanejad his first taste of NHL action for the season, as an injury to Jason Spezza and Daniel Alfredsson suffering from the flu has created room for him on the roster. In his first game of the season Tuesday night, Zibanejad assisted on Jim O’Brien’s second period [...]
It’s a little weird to think that a pitcher who posted a 3.70 ERA, .1.27 WHIP, and who held opponents to a .241 BAA couldn’t find themselves a job on a contending roster in the big leagues, but that’s exactly the situation Shaun Marcum found himself in after the 2012 season, when elbow issues scared [...]
The Minnesota Timberwolves‘ talented power forward Kevin Love has a last name that seems quite fitting these days. Love is set to receive the Kia Community Assist Award for December for the work he has done in the Minnesota area around the community.

The chase for five-star defensive tackle Eddie Vanderdoes (Auburn, Ca., Placer) and former USC commit is shaping up to be a four-team race between UCLA, Notre Dame and an outside shot given to Alabama, because he has not cancelled his visit to the Tide.

Marshall Henderson has emerged on to the college basketball scene by making big shots and not being afraid of showing his emotions on the court. But it has been the Ole Miss guard’s emotional outburst that has gotten him the most attention. Henderson’s taunting of the Auburn student section after hitting the game winning free [...]
A lot of basketball fans want to see LeBron James in the dunk contest. However, LeBron has always turned down pressure to join the contest. To me, this makes no sense because All-Star weekend should be about entertaining the fans. Luckily for us, a fan by the name of Chris Thomas has a brilliant idea. [...]
The week leading up to Super Bowl XLVII has been quite exciting for members of the Baltimore Ravens considering all of the questions surrounding Ray Lewis being linked to PED. However, the argument can be made that Joe Flacco has found himself in a more difficult situation after making inappropriate comments about his feelings towards [...]
While Andy Dirks may not be the sexiest name in MLB, he certainly has gotten a lot of attention among baseball purists. The Detroit Tigers outfielder is a flat-out ball player. He never turns in a clean jersey and has tremendous feel for the game. All of this cannot be denied, but it takes more [...]
Raphael Varane scored a late equaliser on his ‘El Classico’ debut to save Real Madrid from a 1-0 defeat to Barcelona in the Copa del Ray.

Madison Memorial star wide receiver Jester Weah was one of the last talented players in Wisconsin to make a verbal commitment.

You have to absolutely love this time of year if you follow high school or college football at all. With Nationally Signing Day just a short seven days away, we are going to see some crazy stuff from college football recruits. One recruit that has shown how crazy a road to signing day can be and that [...]
There is never a dull moment in college football recruiting. In what I’m sure will make Ohio State Buckeyes fans and coaches very nervous, four-star linebacker Trey Johnson (Lawrenceville, GA/Central Gwinnett) made a surprise visit to the campus of the Tennessee Volunteers over the past weekend. Earlier in the week there were rumors swirling that Johnson would be making the trip [...]
New Arkansas Razorbacks head coach Bret Bielema knows a thing or two about good running backs and how to utilize them. After all Bielema spent seven seasons as head coach of the Wisconsin Badgers, one of the best ground and pound programs in the nation. This weekend Bielema has a chance to land the top running back in the 2013 class Alex [...]
In my eyes it’s never too early to start talking about future recruiting classes and the impact those players are starting to make. One player who has made a huge impact this year already is forward Kevon Looney of Milwaukee Hamilton. Looney has seen the offers just roll in this season from pretty much a who’s who [...]
The top wide receiver in all the land, Laquon Treadwell (Crete, IL/Crete-Monee), committed to the Ole Miss Rebels on Thursday. For the Rebels, this is only the beginning. The Rebels right now have what some would consider a top 10 or 15 recruiting class. Adding a few more pieces to the puzzle could easily change that to [...]
This comes as no surprise. Everyone knew that once the news broke of Chip Kelly taking the head coaching job with the Philadelphia Eagles, it would shake things up recruiting-wise for the Oregon Ducks. Even though Dontre Wilson is committed to the Ducks, it’s not stopping the four-star athlete from taking at least one more visit by the time signing day [...]
