NFL media predicts the Raiders will have the same record as they did last season.There’s no question the Raiders have a rough schedule in 2026. While they face some of the weakest teams in the league, they also have a brutal lineup of some of the league’s top teams. And their tough opponents outweigh the winnable games.For that reason, my 2026 Raiders game-by-game predictions have them finishing with a losing record overall.That being said, there is obvious improvement in this team. They had the perfect storm of terrible last season. From a terribly coached offensive line to bad QB play,…
(Mark Robinson) Tyson Fury, well-known for dropping hints on social media, today appeared to announce that his next fight will take place in Dublin, Ireland, on August 1. The former heavyweight champion, 37 years old and on the comeback trail, last month outpointed Arslanbek Makhmudov over 12 rounds at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England. That victory marked his first action since losing two fights to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024. It was a win that Fury planned would lead straight to a money-spinning showdown with Anthony Joshua but, with Joshua opting to have a warm-up bout, Fury will now dow…
The New Zealand skipper added that his side did not have much to work off in terms of seeing their opponents in action in the Test format.”From an Ireland point of view there’s not a huge amount of footage of Test matches so for us it’s really important for us to adapt on the go and adapt to conditions as quickly as we can.”We’ve been here playing ODIs and T20 cricket so we have experienced this part of the world, and these conditions, before.”Fingers crossed, the weather remains sunny like this and we can get a full game in.”New Zealand…

In 2025, Michigan was expected to allow Bryce Underwood to play a little more free than he did. Sherrone Moore said one too many times that if Underwood was going to be utilized on the ground, he needed a backup quarterback, and apparently, the Wolverines didn’t feel they had that. However, when Moore was out for a few games — serving a two-game suspension — Underwood was more free. His biggest game on the ground came in Week 3 against Central Michigan, where Moore was on the couch in his house watching the game. The dual-threat quarterback ran the ball…
What happens between now and the June 23-24 NBA Draft could have cascading effects on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Will the Wolves trade Rudy Gobert and/or Julius Randle? Are they big-game hunting, and if they are, are their cards good enough to avoid losing an all-in hand?Time will tell, but the early rumblings from the NBA rumor mill could serve as indicators that Minnesota might have the small stack while playing at a table with rich opponents.
