Minnesota Teams

Vikings: The full 2026 NFL schedule dropped last night. Minnesota's slate is part of the league-wide reveal — you can dig into the specifics, but the big takeaway is the NFL is stuffing holidays with football this year. Twins: Mid-May baseball is humming along. No blockbuster news today, but the AL Central race is starting to take shape. Wild: Minnesota is in a playoff battle against Colorado — Game 5 energy is real right now. This series is a big deal. Timberwolves/Lynx/United/Gophers: Quiet on the front for today.

NFL

The entire 2026 NFL schedule was released yesterday, and it's basically a holiday sports bonanza. Christmas features three games including Packers-Bears and Bills-Broncos. Thanksgiving is expanding to five games across the week. The Cowboys and Ravens are playing in Rio de Janeiro. The Patriots apparently got the hardest opening stretch in 40 years, while the Packers got a soft early schedule. That's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes.

NBA

The biggest draft rumor swirling right now: The Utah Jazz (who hold the No. 2 pick) might trade up to No. 1 to grab AJ Dybantsa, the projected superstar. Jazz ownership says "everything is on the table." In the playoffs, the Cavaliers vs. Pistons series continues — Detroit is pushing Cleveland in a way few expected.

MLB

There's a new No. 1 team in the MLB Power Rankings — the Dodgers have been knocked off the top spot by a team with a red-hot offense (check the full rankings if you're curious who). It's mid-May, which means we're exiting the "it's still early" phase of the season.

NHL

The Wild vs. Avalanche series is the headliner right now, with Minnesota fighting to keep their playoff hopes alive. The NHL playoff picture is tightening up across both conferences.

College Sports

The ACC, Big Ten, and Big 12 have joined forces to push for a 24-team College Football Playoff expansion. The ball is now in the SEC's court. Translation: more teams, more games, more money — and the SEC has to decide if they're in or if they'll fight for a different structure.

Other Sports

The PGA Championship (one of golf's four majors) is underway — Round 2 is today. The Preakness Stakes, the second leg of horse racing's Triple Crown, runs this Saturday at Laurel Park in Maryland. And in the UFC, Sean Strickland revealed he suffered multiple shoulder injuries in his fight against Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 328, including a partial rotator cuff tear.
