  • With 0-2 start, Rams in unchartered waters under McVay

    Eric Lambkins II, Sports Reporter|Sep 19, 2024

    Sean McVay's face conveyed it all, even before he stepped up to the microphone after the game last Sunday. These 0-2 waters are unchartered territory for him. There's a certain silence that lingers after a loss like the one they endured last Sunday to the Arizona Cardinals on the road. You felt it in the Rams locker room, heard it in the way cleats scuffed the floor inside the locker room, in the low murmur of voices trying to make sense of something that felt senseless. You saw it on the...

  • 2024 NFL Power Rankings – Week 3

    Bill Seals - Fred Altieri, Sports Reporters - PFWA Members|Sep 19, 2024

    1. Kansas City Chiefs (2-0): The Chiefs have a very good defense and quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Those two things make them tough to beat. But they have already lost running back Isiah Pacheco for 6-8 weeks with a broken fibula and have lost wide receiver Marquise Brown for the season with a dislocated shoulder. A three-peat may be too much to ask this season. Next: -3.5 at Atlanta Falcons - Sun, Sep. 22 – O/U: 46.5 (ATS: 1-1 – O/U: 2-0) 2. Buffalo Bills (2-0): The Bills came away with an imp...

  • Sparks' Curt Miller is building beyond the box score

    Eric Lambkins II, Sports Reporter|Sep 19, 2024

    Los Angeles Sparks head coach Curt Miller will be the first to tell you that this season, he has not pressed the right buttons to get this rendition of the team to overachieve. Miller knows what it feels like to lose sleep over a team. He's been in the game long enough to understand the weight that settles into your bones after a season doesn't go the way you planned. But this one felt different. There is something about this particular group, this particular city, where losing is intolerable...

    Bill Seals, Sports Reporter|Sep 19, 2024

Dobbins led the Chargers offense with 131 yards rushing on 17 carries, including a 43-yard touchdown run late in the second quarter. That gave...

  • Rams dominated by Cardinals in Arizona

    Mykell Mathieu, Sports Reporter|Sep 19, 2024

    The Rams had no answer for quarterback Kyler Murray and the Cardinals as Murray's 325 total yards and two touchdowns helped lead Arizona to their 41-10 home-opening victory. The Cardinals attacked the Rams defense early and often behind the play of Murray and superstar rookie receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. Harrison finished the game with four catches for 130 yards and two touchdown. Most of his yardage came in the first quarter. Murray was the star of stars in the blowout win for Arizona as the...

  • Chargers head to Carolina after beating the Raiders

    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...

    Amyn Bhai, Sports Reporter|Sep 12, 2024

    The Los Angeles Dodgers currently lead their division by 4 1/2 games ahead of the San Diego Padres with the Arizona Diamondbacks 5 games back in the loss column. They are also one game behind the Philadelphia Phillies (87-59) for the best record in Major League Baseball at 86-58, with 16 games remaining in the regular season. While other teams might be celebrating a successful season, the Dodgers view every year as a "World Series or bust" situation. This high expectation has many analyzing the...

  • USC hits the jackpot in win over LSU

    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. In this robust metropolis, one does not need the sun's rays or the moon's glow because its rendition of stars powers the tantalizing hues of the city. Two college teams converged on the city in the desert last Sunday, lured by the promise of college football playoffs and the immortality of returning to national championship standards. USC and LSU...

  • Centaur High School football battles Harbor City Narbonne

    Steve Finley, Sports Editor|Sep 5, 2024

    One game does not define a season, especially when it's the first game of the season. Culver City High School's 42-28 loss to San Jacinto last Friday did show that the Centaurs need to improve on offense and defense as they tackle a demanding schedule that includes some very good high school football teams. On Friday one of those teams is Harbor City Narbonne. Kick off is set for 7 p.m. on the Culver City high school campus. Several years ago, Narbonne used to be one of the best football teams...

    Steve Finley, Sports Editor|Aug 29, 2024

    Some people are jacks of all trades and a master of none but sometimes you find a person who is a master of all trades. Simply put, that was Tom Nakayama. Nakayama, who passed away in 2022 was a beacon light to everyone who knew him. Nakayama was a Culver City middle school math teacher, a Culver City high school basketball and track and field coach, and he was a Culver City assistant high school athletic trainer.
