A Breakdown of The Week in Sports!

In case you missed it


  1. kind of a sucky way to start the week, but RIP Bill Russell 
  2. Raise your hand if you remembered that James Washington signed with the Cowboys… no one? Didn’t think so 
  3. Trade deadline is Tuesday, we’re still on Juan Soto watch. Padres are supposedly preparing an offer. My guess is it ends up being the Cardinals 
  4. So much for deebo getting traded
  5. Watson gets 6 games… I do not understand how these suspensions are decided when he gets 6 games, but ridley gets a year for a parlay
  6. The Saints defense is about to be unreal. Especially that secondary
  7. Alonte Taylor Vs. Paulson Adebo is a fun battle
  8. Payton Turner and Trevor Penning…. Love the emotion but let’s not punch helmets with fists 
  9. TRADES ARE HAPPENING 
  10. Mancini to the Astros! Good move for them
  11. Frankie Montas to Yankees, they get their pitcher
  12. Josh Hader to the Padres? What? Why? 
  13. The Red Sox are doing something but no one seems to understand what or why
  14. I say again, have Aaron Judge tested 
  15. The White Sox attempted to trade for Ohtani, and I respect the hustle 
  16. The arms race in the American League began today. The Astros are taking a swing at the Yankees 
  17. Bucs offensive linemen are dropping like flies 
  18. The Dolphins lost a first round pick & a third round pick for tampering with Brady & Sean Payton. The most dolphins thing ever is losing the picks AND not getting either of them 
  19. The Padres just swooped in and stole Juan Soto from the Cardinals. Oh they also managed to get Josh Bell 
  20. Paulson Adebo has been the star of training camp. Bringing in legit CB2 competition was a really great move
  21. Not sports related, but pizza rolls need to be renamed to “mini lava pockets” as I can no longer feel my tongue 
  22. Hereby the irrational leader of the Chris Herndon bandwagon 
  23. No for real… the Padres are going all out to win this year 
  24. Jacob deGrom is BACK
  25. Honey Badger is BACK
  26. Trevor Penning ejected from practice after 3 days in a row of fights. I like his attitude, but how about we reel it back a little bit eh?
  27. Training camp all around the league has been full of fisticuffs 
  28. Jesse Winker is absolutely hilarious! He called a fan in the outfield “four eyes” then tweeted this after the game 
  29. Zach Wilson gonna lose his job to Joe Flacco? 
  30. lol overnight the Padres became terrifying. Hello Slam Diego 
  31. I’d have a better chance of winning the lottery without buying a ticket than hitting Sandy Alcantara’s slider 
  32. Nothing screams must watch tv like a Jags vs Raiders preseason game 
  33. What the hell was that dodgers celebration?
  34. Zamir White got the juice
  35. Yeah MT about to cut up 
  36. Brandon Aiyuk is apparently a ball magnet in 49ers camp. Fantasy sleeper
  37. Kiko Alonso retired? Linebacker is a big YIKES for the saints 
  38. Slam Ball is back? Excuse me while I go buy a trampoline and have my own set up at my house like the old days


These are certainly starting to get longer now that football season is here! Just makes these articles better! See y'all back here next week!

A quick share helps us a lot!

NOLA Gold's win over Seattle secures 3rd place in the Major League Rugby Eastern Conference standings

By Tina Howell • April 28, 2025
After a weather-delayed kickoff, loyal NOLA Gold fans were treated to a rollercoaster of a match that ended with a well-earned 44-36 victory over the Seattle Seawolves at the Shrine. This win moved NOLA Gold into 3rd place in the Major League Rugby Eastern Conference standings. Coach Danny Lee said of the team's response to the delay, “We just had to control the controllables. Once we told the boys the definitive time for kickoff, we had a plan ready to go. In terms of game plan, we had to be a little bit more direct, and we had to kick and adapt quickly.” NOLA Gold set the tone early, taking an initial 3-0 lead thanks to a steady penalty kick from Dorian Jones. Though Seattle answered quickly with a try to make it 7-3, the Gold launched into a dominant scoring stretch. Isaac Te Tamaki powered across the try line to ignite the offense, followed by back-to-back tries from the relentless Jonah Mau’u. Jones continued to add points from the tee, stretching the Gold’s lead to 27-7. Just before halftime, the Seawolves found a breakthrough and scored at the buzzer, narrowing the margin to 27-14. However, NOLA emerged from the locker room with purpose. Xavier Mignot wasted no time reestablishing momentum with a try that pushed the lead to 34-14. Seattle fought back with intensity, capitalizing on back-to-back tries to bring the score to 34-24. But NOLA responded with composure, as Jones added another penalty to keep the visitors at bay, 37-24. The closing stages of the match saw both teams exchanging blows. Seattle’s try was met by a decisive moment from Joe Taufete’e, who muscled through defenders for a critical score. Luke Campbell’s conversion extended the lead to 44-29. Though Seattle scored one final try at the buzzer, it wasn’t enough. With a final score of 44-36, NOLA Gold walked away with a crucial five-point win in front of a roaring home crowd and strengthens their postseason hopes with a firm grip on 3rd place in the East. Their next match will be on the road against the San Diego Legion on May 4th at 4:00 PM CT. For tickets and more details, please visit www.nolagoldrugby.com
