The Giants will have some tough decisions to make regarding the future of quarterback Daniel Jones.

We’re just hours away from finding out if Yankees slugger Aaron Judge and his historic season will be punctuated with an American League MVP Award.

Kyrie Irving might be back in the lineup for the Nets by Sunday, according to ESPN.

The New Jersey Generals of Birmingham and Canton are not coming home to the Garden State. But they are reportedly getting closer. And potentially very close.

Just when you figured the Mets had more than enough competition to re-sign Brandon Nimmo in free agency, another team makes room to throw their hat in the ring.

MLB’s Hot Stove season is officially upon us, and the rumor mill is buzzing with juicy tidbits.

It looked like the Nets could see the light at the end of the tunnel there for a second. That was at least the case with Brooklyn’s off-the-court issues. Now the focus is back to what’s happening (or not happening) on the court. Outside of questioning Ben Simmons’ passion for the game, the Nets got … Continued
We have reached the extremely predictable part of the Nets’ gradual collapse when they realize Ben Simmons is a headache. From The Athletic: According to multiple sources with direct knowledge of the situation, the frustration surrounding Simmons had been building in recent weeks within the organization.

While the Yankees are focused on re-signing Aaron Judge, general manager Brian Cashman, and Co. have to multitask. Even if it’s all related to Judge in the end. Part of that focus was spent re-signing Anthony Rizzo to a new two-year deal with a club option for 2025. And according to Jon Heyman of the New … Continued

Will the Giants retain Daniel Jones? Will they let him walk and replace him? Taking a look at both sides of this looming decision.
Hal Steinbrenner really wants Aaron Judge to re-sign with his Yankees. At least, the owner said as much at an MLB owners meeting in Midtown on Tuesday.

Mike Francesa will also, from time to time, get you the politics anyway that he can.

Fresh off a loss in which they gave up 145 points, the struggling New York Knicks are in the worst case scenario: A long road trip out west. Such is the Knicks’ itinerary for the next five games. Five tough Western Conference opponents, all on the road, and capped with the same Oklahoma City Thunder … Continued
If there’s one thing I love about the Mets with Steve Cohen in charge, it’s that New York is always ready to strike. This pertains to their primary acquisition targets, as well as alternatives if Option 1 is no longer available. Let’s not forget the Steven Matz situation from last winter, folks. It seemed like … Continued
When will enough be enough for the Nets with Kyrie Irving? They dealt with the vaccine drama last season. This year’s scandal has been far worse. And it is not improving. Irving had his chance at redemption following his suspension for promoting an antisemitic film — and showing zero remorse in the aftermath. He could … Continued
There’s no baseball being played, but the Yankees are still being haunted by the Houston Astros.

Jacob deGrom currently isn’t a member of the Mets, and that feels weird. Hearing reports of him engaging with other teams interested in signing him away from New York is even weirder. But thankfully, watching the right-hander leave Flushing in favor of Atlanta doesn’t appear to be likely. As deGrom begins testing free agency for … Continued

The Mets are reportedly investigating the trade market for pitching help.

MetLife Stadium’s playing surface is infamous in the NFL. Many coaches and players say it is unsafe.

International free agency giveth and international free agency taketh away. This is a lesson the Yankees know all too well and one Brian Cashman should remember this winter.

The Giants defeated the Texans on Sunday to improve to 7-2, and are continuing to make a push toward a potential playoff spot.
Former New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney scored his first career touchdown on Sunday for the Kansas City Chiefs. And it was fittingly a bit odd.
