Jacksonville Jaguars fans born on this side of the millennium have two main memories: the 2017 playoff run and the 2020 tankathon. The “Sacksonville” team of ‘17 holds a special place in the heart of every Duval citizen, but the final stretch of the regular season three years later — when Jacksonville grew its losing streak to 15 consecutive games and a 12-36 record since the 2017 AFC title game — was almost as enjoyable.

After a stunning run to Super Bowl LVI, expectations have been high for the Cincinnati Bengals the past two seasons. But during the 2022-2023 season the Bengals fell short of a return to the big game, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in heart-breaking fashion in the AFC Championship Game.

The Deshaun Watson trade has been quite simply a trainwreck for the Cleveland Browns. After giving him a $230 million deal that was fully guaranteed, Watson has been mired by injuries and constant reminders of a player that he once was. As the Browns made their playoff run on the back of their top rated defense and Joe Flacco (!), the questions looming around the future of Watson and how good he truly is grew louder and louder.

The Browns’ Deshaun Watson trade is already a disaster, and this is last chance to salvage it

A fan ran on the field during a game between the Cleveland Guardians and Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night at Great American Ballpark. Storming the field wasn’t enough: the fan was also determined to do a backflip. He pulled it off just before being hit the taser and carried off the field in handcuffs.

Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips is no longer in Missouri but it still has two free-standing locations in Ohio. It once was a large chain across the country. I still recall the one off of 71 Highway in Kansas City, Missouri that used to be behind the once-popular Truman Corners Shopping Center. It was my mother's go-to spot for fish & chips. That was a long time ago.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Luka Doncic’s was supposed to use the 2024 NBA Finals to make his case that he’s the best basketball player in the world. Doncic had valiantly dragged the Mavs through the grueling Western Conference gauntlet with an incredible combination of scoring and playmaking despite clearly being less than 100 percent healthy. His step-back game-winner over Rudy Gobert was the most memorable moment of this year’s playoffs, and his full court alley-oops showed we were watching a master at work.

Is the Big 12 in the middle of an identity crisis?. As former powerhouses Oklahoma and Texas leave to go towards the SEC, the conference is left reeling and trying to figure out how to regrow their brand outside of having Texas and Oklahoma. When new commissioner Brett Yormark stepped in, he began to try and make the conference a bit cooler, giving conference champions WWE title belts and having Nelly perform at halftime of the Big 12 conference championship football game.

Just when you thought it wouldn’t get any worse - well, here we are. Several days after KLD’s quite pathetic statement to the fans stating the announcement of our new head coach was “imminent” and still there’s nothing. If anything the situation is even worse. If media reports are to be believed there have now been several bodies all but sitting in the gaffer's chair only for them to pull the plug at the 11th hour.

As the University prepares for a long-term downturn in giving, interim Harvard President Alan M. Garber ’76 is leading the charge to woo back disillusioned donors. Harvard’s initial response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel infuriated many of the University’s major donors, but during the first weeks of the donor revolt, senior leadership remained optimistic that it could quickly win them back.
