Why Matt Eberflus cost the Bears late against the Packers with more coaching mistakes
The most consistent thing about the Chicago Bears under the leadership of head coach Matt Eberflus has been their unbreakable resolve to lose winnable games. The Bears’ issues started way before Jayden Daniels’ Hail Mary broke their spirit and their season in Week 8, but somehow it keeps getting worse.
The Green Bay Packers delivered the Bears another...

Only the Bengals could screw this up like they have.
The Bengals season is functionally over. As much as Zac Taylor might want to try and talk up Cincinnati’s chances of making the postseason, they’re cooked. At 4-7, with two remaining games against the Steelers and one against the Broncos, any hope of a fairytale win-out scenario is so preposterous they’re not even worth entertaining.
As disappointing as this has been for fans, it’s been even...

Inside the NBA isn’t going anywhere!
The best studio show in sports isn’t going away, it’s just changing channels. Rumors over the weekend gave way to an announcement on Monday that Inside the NBA would keep running for the 2025-26 season and beyond, with everything about the show remaining the same but to commence airing on ESPN.
That means we won’t be losing Ernie Johnson Jr., Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Shaquille...

We’ve safely exited another summer gaming lull and it looks like we’re entering a bull run of great games heading into 2025. As a result, the 512GB of internal storage supplied by the Xbox Series S is feeling increasingly paltry. You’ll even start to feel the squeeze on the 1TB Series X when you load up on new titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops VI (which demands about 85GB for...

The Air Max 1000’s design is an updated take on...

Substack still isn’t profitable despite attracting big names in the independent writer world, whose newsletters and blogs rake in a massive digital subscriber base for the platform. Hamish McKenzie, one of Substack’s founders, told The New York Times that it could choose to be profitable but is focusing instead on “investing in and continuing to grow the business.”

It was morbid curiosity that made me tune in to Netflix’s live boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson on Saturday night. The stream ran into technical issues, and the fight itself was slow and ponderous. But there was something else that kept me watching: all of the jokes flying on Bluesky.
That kind of real-time social experience is a large part of what made X feel so vital back when it was still called Twitter. Whether it...
That's truly the look of someone "dying inside."

The Constitution sets a two-term limit for presidents. Still, Donald J. Trump has repeatedly floated the idea that he might like to stay in the White House beyond his next term.
Democrats hoped to lose by less in blue-collar areas that had drifted toward Donald Trump. In many places, they may have lost by more.
“Others are just getting to know him,” Caroline Kennedy, the U.S. ambassador to Australia, said of her cousin, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick for health secretary.
The company said last week that it intends to take the necessary steps to regain compliance with the Nasdaq. Shares turned around in early trading on Monday.

Federal officials say in light of worsening wildfires, Pacific Northwest forests need more active management.
U.S. officials would allow increased logging on federal lands across the Pacific Northwest in the name of fighting wildfires and boosting rural economies under proposed changes to a sweeping forest management plan that’s been in place for three decades.
The U.S. Forest Service proposal, released Friday, would overhaul the Northwest Forest Plan that governs about 38,000 square miles...
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is one of the nation’s last wild places.
President-elect Donald Trump promised repeatedly during his campaign to expand oil drilling in the U.S., which is good news for political leaders in Alaska, where oil is the economic lifeblood and many felt the Biden administration has obstructed efforts to boost the state’s diminished production.
A debate over drilling on federal lands on Alaska’s petroleum-rich North Slope will likely be revived in the...
Many brands are reluctant to sponsor players who aren’t mainstream enough.
In a banner year for women’s professional sports, athletes who dominate their game are reaping the financial benefits.
The WNBA is a leading example. Last month, it wrapped up a historic season that notched all-time viewership and attendance records while racking up brand deals and corporate sponsorships for its players along the way. On Sunday, the league will hold its draft lottery for the 2025 season.
