    Bill Seals, Sports Reporter|Sep 12, 2024

    As the late great UCLA head basketball coach John Wooden would often say, "Succeeding is performing at your best when your best is required. Your best is required each day." Apparently, the Los Angeles Chargers are learning that lesson under new head coach Jim Harbaugh. Harbaugh and the Chargers came from behind last Sunday at SoFi Stadium to defeat the Las Vegas Raiders, 22-10. The Chargers trailed at halftime 7-6 and had just two first downs and 83 yards in total offense in the in the first...

  • Rams lose to Lions, battle Cardinals on Sunday

    Fred Altieri, Sports Reporter|Sep 12, 2024

    There’s something about the Motor City. The Los Angeles Rams began their 2024 campaign by losing their second consecutive game against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field last Sunday night. Once again, the Rams shot themselves in the foot in the 26-20 overtime loss, courtesy of the offense failing to retain possession of the ball in the closing minutes after taking the lead with 4:30 remaining on the clock. “We had those opportunities to close that game out in that four-minute. We went up, def...

    Eric Lambkins II, Sports Reporter|Sep 5, 2024

    In a city that sways to its own beat, the neon-colored bulbs shimmer like stars painting the night's sky and where the heaviness of failure looms.
