Yu Darvish threw a 99mph fastball for his last pitch against the Marlins Monday night and not only did it hit Lew Brinson, the pitch got the home plate umpire in the throat and got a piece of Willson Contreras too. I mean, it was ridiculous and luckily Brinson isn’t seriously injured. Hopefully not, but […]

Excitement over the Chicago Bears going into 2019 is off the charts. This feels like a team that is ready to compete for a chance at the Super Bowl. Something that hasn’t been realistic for almost a decade. Yet at the same time, there seems to be an air of panic among fans. Not necessarily […]

The Cubs sent Carl Edwards Jr. down to Triple-a after a dreadful beginning to the 2019 season. His new delivery was deemed illegal by MLB, he couldn’t find the strike zone and had no confidence on the mound. He was frustrated, the team was frustrated and so were fans.

Ones that look good in April can turn out to be anything but from September to January. Still, people are anxious to find out how […]

Yu Darvish was emptying the tank at the end of his start against the Marlins on Monday, pumping fastballs in the upper 90s in the sixth inning. With two outs, bases empty and the Cubs leading 5-2, Darvish threw his fastest pitch in a few years, a 99mph fastball to Lewis Brinson. The result was […]

Simply being a talented quarterback is one thing. A lot of guys can throw a football to a receiver with accuracy or simply launch it far down the field. Many can also run pretty fast. What separates the average from the great and even the good from the great is how they operate as a […]

Matt Nagy knows how to think like a quarterback. He should. He used to be one. He had success at it in college at Delaware and again during his time in the Arena Football League. This gives him a unique insight into how that position thinks and most importantly how it can be made to […]
