Baseball is officially back and with the start of a new year comes a fresh class of exciting rookies ready to leave their mark on the 2026 season. From teenage phenoms to college stars and even international veterans making the jump, this year's rookie class offers a little bit of everything.

The NFL Draft is supposed to be about long-term vision. Stability. Smart decisions. But every year, teams fall for potential, ignore obvious warning signs, and convince themselves: this one’s different. Sound familiar? Here’s how the top 10 picks of the 2026 NFL Draft look when you evaluate them like dating profiles, based on real mock draft intel and just a little bit of emotional reasoning.

The stage is set for the 2026 NCAA gymnastics championships! Let's take a look at the eight teams competing for the national title.

The New York Yankees have gotten off to a hot start with an 8-2 record, leading the AL East. They began their season by sweeping the San Francisco Giants 3-0 and have recently won their series against the Seattle Mariners, 2-1, and the Miami Marlins, 2-1. New York has an incredible starting rotation, but one that stands out from the rest is Max Fried.

No one deserves appreciation more than Aerin Frankel. The Boston Fleet netminder has seven shutouts thus far into the season, has posted a 0.954 SV%, and is, safe to say, someone we should be talking about.

For one night at the Canadian Tire Centre, this didn’t feel like an occasion for women’s hockey in Ottawa. It just felt normal.

Calgary didn’t just host a hockey game; it hosted a movement. When the Ottawa Charge and the Toronto Sceptres faced off in the PWHL Takeover Game, the result on the scoreboard almost felt secondary. What mattered more was the energy in the building, the statement being made, and the unmistakable feeling that women’s hockey has arrived, loudly, in Western Canada.

While the Pacific Division has turned into a self-proclaimed "pillow fight," the teams in the Eastern Conference continue to battle for position as the race for the NHL playoffs heats up. Both the Atlantic and Metropolitan Divisions remain tightly contested, with teams fighting to come out on top while others push to make the final cut.

Happy baseball season to all who celebrate! If you're looking for some fun (and maybe a little frustration, it is baseball after all!), fireworks, and the power of friendship this season, may I suggest some Guards Ball?
