Sean Payton Unveils His Bold Plan to Help Bill Belichick Break Don Shula’s All-Time Record

A surprising revelation has just come to light regarding the Denver Broncos and head coach Sean Payton.According to reports from ESPN, Payton reportedly seriously considered an unusual scenario to help Bill Belichick etch his name at the top of the NFL's history books.
Following Belichick's departure from the New England Patriots in January 2024, Payton reportedly considered a proposal for Broncos owner Greg Penner. His idea was to temporarily hand over his head coaching position to Belichick so

No, the Canadiens haven’t managed to improve since the start of the summer.
We were expecting a major trade because Kent Hughes had mentioned that he wouldn't be afraid to overpay to add a talented player to his roster.
In the end, that didn't happen.
It must be said, however, that market prices didn't help. The value of certain players has skyrocketed in recent weeks, which likely left the Canadiens with their hands tied in some situations.
It's all well and good to overpay… but th

Not too long ago, it was clear that the Detroit Tigers needed to—and would—trade the biggest name on the trade market: two-time Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal.
But things are a little less clear right now, for two reasons.
First, the team's recent performance has put the Tigers just three and a half games out of the final playoff spot.
However, that's not the only reason Detroit might keep Skubal on the roster. According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the left-hander has report

Do the kids still use this expression? If not, the teacher’s pet is the teacher’s favourite, a label assigned to one student by the other students who believe that the teacher’s pet can do no wrong in the teacher’s eyes. Back in my day, we’d talk derisively about a teacher’s pet – they were suckups, their hand-to-air movement was terrifyingly fast, teacher’s pets weren’t usually popular among the student body – but that was a long time

The chances of Kirby Dach leaving the Montreal Canadiens through arbitration are slim, but one interesting detail of the process is still worth noting.
According to information from PuckPedia (and as reported by Nicolas Cloutier), if the arbitrator were to award Dach an annual salary of $4.95 million or more, the Canadiens would have the right to reject that decision.
In such a scenario, the player would immediately become an unrestricted free agent, allowing the team to completely free itself f

It’s official: Daniel Jacob is the Rocket’s new head coach.
I hope no one falls off their chair. Pascal Vincent's assistant since 2024 (and Joël Bouchard's for a decade) has been the favorite for quite some time.
He knows the organization and the young players well.
But what's also notable is that the Canadiens have chosen to appoint a defensive specialist to lead the farm team. Jacob has been in charge of the defensemen and the penalty kill for the past two years.

New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye has reached a new milestone in his career.ESPN ranked him eighth on its annual list of the NFL's top quarterbacks, a ranking based on votes from league executives, coaches, and scouts.
This recognition confirms the excellent impression Maye made last season. At just 23 years old, he helped bring the Patriots back among the league's top contenders, leading the team back to the playoffs with consistent and spectacular performances.

Yesterday morning (Sunday), the New York Yankees announced that Cam Schlittler had withdrawn from the All-Star Game. According to manager Aaron Boone, it was a mutual decision to give the pitcher some rest as the team tries to cope with the absence of captain Aaron Judge.
The baseball world had expected Schlittler to be the American League's starting pitcher for the All-Star Game, so when Dylan Cease of the Toronto Blue Jays was officially named the starter, it was assumed that the Blue Jays pit

The Canadiens have several defensemen under long-term contracts.
Lane Hutson (2034), Noah Dobson (2033), Mike Matheson (2031), and Kaiden Guhle (2031) will be central to Martin St-Louis's game plan for many years to come.
Unless, of course, there's a trade involving Guhle, a major injury, or some other unexpected event.
Otherwise, Alexandre Carrier is here for another year. As long as he remains with the Canadiens and continues to perform at the level we've seen over the past year and a half, he

Dear Gossips,This weekend marked the 25th anniversary of the release of one of the most iconic films in Hong Kong cinematic history and a comedy that’s well-known around the world.

With NFL training camps approaching, ESPN has unveiled its highly anticipated annual ranking of the league's top quarterbacks.This ranking, based on votes from more than 70 NFL executives, coaches, and scouts, reflects the players' current performance rather than their entire careers.
For the first time in several years, Patrick Mahomes is no longer ranked first. Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills has taken the top spot after impressing the experts with his performances over the past two seasons. H

Alexander Zharovsky has one year remaining on his KHL contract.
The young player, who will spend much of his summer in Montreal in 2026, is expected to make a permanent move to Quebec in 2027. He is expected to join either the Montreal or Laval team at the end of the 2026–2027 season or in preparation for the 2027–2028 season.
Plans may change, but for now, that's how things are shaping up… unless he's traded in the meantime.
After a first full season in the KHL, where Zharo h

That’s it: the All-Star break is here.
This break, which marks the unofficial end of the first half of the season, is an important time to reflect on what's to come.
Why? Because the trade deadline is approaching.
In exactly three weeks (August 3), team executives will face restrictions on the trades they can make. So time is running out.
Some teams are sure to be buyers, and others are sure to be sellers. But there are still several teams that don't know where they stand.
Among them? The

It’s official.

We have more details regarding Kirby Dach's potential arbitration hearing.
The Canadiens player has been given a date to appear before an arbitrator to determine his salary. Of course, this is only if he doesn't reach an agreement with the Canadiens by then, which is a possibility.
According to PuckPedia, the Canadiens forward could go to arbitration on July 30. Exclusive: We've got hearing dates for all RFAs who elected salary arbitration.

When we talk about an aggressive GM who isn't afraid to pull off a major trade, Bill Guerin's name obviously comes to mind.
Just think of the blockbuster trade that sent Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild.
Right now, the Wild are well-positioned to once again be a powerhouse in the West, but they're still missing that first-line center (or at least a second-line center to support Joel Eriksson Ek).
The Wild have been heavily linked to Dylan Larkin, mainly because Minnesota is a destination he'd

The Vancouver Canucks had a dismal season. 58 points—that's really not great… Obviously, after a season like that, there have to be changes.
Marcus Pettersson was traded for a conditional first-round pick in 2030, and Nils Hoglander is now in Nashville. Others have left via free agency, but there have also been additions like Brendan Gallagher, Paul Cotter, and Jamie Oleksiak.
In short, you can see that these aren't major changes. Players like Brock Boeser, Jake DeBrusk, and Elias P

Last summer, the Padres made a big move by acquiring Mason Miller. The reliever was acquired at a high cost (Leodalis De Vries, one of baseball's top prospects, was sent the other way) in an effort to strengthen the Padres' bullpen.
It was already solid, but with the addition of Miller, it's become monstrous.
And Miller, so far, is living up to expectations. He's having a phenomenal season in a Padres uniform… except that his team, on the other hand, is struggling quite a bit.

Although the Canadiens still need to sign Zachary Bolduc and Kirby Dach (as well as defenseman Arber Xhekaj), we have a good idea of which forwards are likely to be in the lineup to start the season.
However, with twelve forwards currently under contract, the Habs will have to call up at least one player from Laval to serve as the team's thirteenth forward if the situation doesn't change by the start of the upcoming season.
We could therefore see a battle for that spot at the upcoming training c

Yesterday, the first four rounds of the Major League Baseball draft took place. Of course, we were keeping an eye out to see if any Quebecers would be drafted.
In the end, that didn't happen. Three Canadians (Carter Beck, Elliot Lascelles, and Sean Duncan) and one player with dual citizenship (Taj Marchand) were selected.

The Laval Rocket continues to build depth ahead of the upcoming season.
The organization announced that it has agreed to one-year, two-way contracts with forward Alexander Legkov and defensemen Jacob Dion and Kale McCallum.
These three signings demonstrate that the Canadiens organization sees promising potential in these players, who will now try to earn a spot in the American Hockey League.
Alexander Legkov's background is particularly noteworthy. The Russian forward was among the players invit

Since the start of the season, the Yankees have had one of the best offenses in Major League Baseball. It hasn’t been quite as obvious in recent weeks, but the team is still capable of competing with anyone.
And that will be even more true if Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton eventually return.
However, despite all that, the catcher position remains a real problem in the Bronx. Austin Wells is having a dismal season offensively, and the options behind him aren't doing much better.

Every summer, hockey video game fans eagerly await the announcement of who will be the face of the next installment in EA Sports' NHL franchise.
After several weeks of speculation, one name now seems to have won unanimous support.

The information comes from Mike Straw, a journalist well-connected in the world of sports video games.That didn't take

As we know, the Canadiens would likely have liked to sign a top-6 forward this summer. And even though they could still do so, it seems the window of opportunity may now be closed.
Or, at least, it's a lot less open than it was two weeks ago.
And obviously, one has to wonder what the team's management thinks about this, given that they failed to acquire a player of that caliber. Because, in reality, they can't be particularly happy to see Ivan Demidov heading into another season with linemates w

The first day of the MLB draft is now behind us. We can already take a look at who came out on top and who finds themselves on the other end of the spectrum.
Let's start with the winners. And first things first, let's begin with the Chicago White Sox. Sure, the White Sox had the top overall pick in the draft, but they could have tried to spend less money on their new prospect and ended up with a less promising player.
That wasn't the case, however, as representatives from the Windy City set thei
