World Series Updates
The Dodgers have surged to a 2-1 lead against the Yankees, putting New York on the ropes and one loss away from a 3-1 deficit that’s notoriously hard to overcome. This puts even more pressure on the Yankees to perform in Game 4 if they want to push the series further. Los Angeles, meanwhile, is in a solid position to grab its second title in three years if it keeps this momentum.
NFL Trade Buzz
It’s been a lively trade period: the Panthers sent WR Diontae Johnson to the Ravens to boost Baltimore’s offense, which could use more firepower down the stretch. The Jaguars dealt OT Cam Robinson to the Vikings, giving Minnesota some needed support on the offensive line. In Indianapolis, the Colts are trying out veteran QB Joe Flacco as Anthony Richardson heads to the bench, which might indicate some urgency to stay competitive this season.

Michigan has maintained a strong start, while Ohio State is pushing to stay competitive, both aiming for top spots in the playoffs. With the season midpoint here, these rivalries are hitting new highs, impacting rankings and playoff projections.
