Ready for this summer's soccer smorgasbord that will be the 2026 FIFA World Cup? You better be because you know I am. I'm ready for 48 teams from around the globe to take part in what will be an epic party spread across three nations, including the United States. But let's be real. There are teams that are better than others. Some will have a legit shot at winning it […]

"Why not us?" That's the mantra that United States men's national team coach Mauricio Pocchetino has used to motivate his team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be co-hosted on home soil (along with Canada and Mexico) this summer. But how realistic is that objective for the U.S. with less than two months before the World Cup starts? It's a question put forth to three former USA […]

The NFL Draft has turned into a major betting event, largely because it fills the major gap for fans who want NFL action between the end of the season and the Hall of Fame Game in August. At the same time, it’s one of the toughest events to handicap. There are hundreds of mock drafts and insider reports, but even league sources don’t have a complete picture of what every […]

Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider has built two Super Bowl-winning teams through the draft as he enters his 17th season at the helm. Can Schneider bring a third Lombardi Trophy to Seattle by building through the draft? Well, the 2026 draft will bring some obstacles to the Seahawks as they look to add to the roster that just won it all. As the defending champs, the Seahawks won't be […]

Tyler Reddick already has five wins in nine NASCAR Cup Series races this year. Considering there are 29 races left, just how many more wins can he get? If he continues at this current pace, he’d finish with 20 wins in the 36 races. He won’t continue at this pace. But are 10 wins out of the question? Not at all. That’s because with the exception of short tracks, the […]

It's the eve of the 2026 NFL Draft, and after a year’s worth of player evaluations and careful combing of current team needs, this is how I see things shaking out over the first two rounds. I considered projecting trades. Some expect the first round to be full of them. Rather than add even more hypotheticals to the exercise, I did what most of the league will do Thursday: "stick […]

Obviously, the first round of the NFL Draft has loads of talent. But which first-round picks are the best of the best? We worked to answer that question … sorta. As the countdown to the 2026 NFL Draft has moved from weeks to days, we decided to determine which player was the best selection at every first-round pick since 2000. The premise was relatively simple, but some draft picks (looking […]

With the 2026 NFL Draft now just hours away, it's time to get down to the nitty-gritty. After weeks of testing, film-watching and interviews, the scouts are making their final evaluations. So it's time for me to do the same. The New York Giants' recent acquisition of the No. 10 pick shifts the landscape. Ohio State's quartet of top prospects remains in the top 10, as predicted in my most […]

The NFL Draft is mostly about finding young players to help teams build for a better future. Rookies can’t always step right in and change a franchise’s trajectory right away. But sometimes that’s exactly what a team needs. And there are a bunch of teams that know that one good draft — maybe even one good pick — could make all the difference in the world in the 2026 season. […]
