During a season some teams play games that can make or break their season. One game that they play can determine league standings or making the playoffs. In the case of the Culver City varsity boys football team both scenarios apply to the Centaurs when they travel to Lawndale to face the Cardinals on Friday night, at 7 p.m. in this Bay league contest. The Bay league is one of the best and most competitive football leagues in Southern California. Inglewood is in first place with a league record...
As The World Turns. The Los Angeles Rams are preparing to host the Minnesota Vikings for Thursday Night Football at SoFi Stadium. A sudden swirl of rumors and reports that the Rams are seeking to trade All-Pro wide receiver Cooper Kupp followed the team's much-needed home victory over the Las Vegas this past Sunday. The news is an unexpected shock for the Rams faithful who immediately embraced Kupp when he was drafted in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Reportedly, the Rams are asking for...
1.Kansas City Chiefs (6-0): The Chiefs are the only unbeaten team in the NFL after defeating the 49ers on the road, but that still was not good enough. The Chiefs then went out and traded for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to give the offense more offensive fire power. The Titans get a fifth-round pick that elevates to a fourth rounder if KC makes the Super Bowl and Hopkins plays 60% of the snaps. What a steal. Next: -9.5 at Las Vegas Raiders - Sun, Oct. 27, 1:25 PM PT – O/U: 41 (ATS: 5-1 – O/U...
When the CIF Southern Section office reconfigured the football leagues in the South Bay and the Westside Culver City high school knew right away, they were put in one of the toughest leagues in the CIF Southern Section. The reality is 7-0 Inglewood, 6-1 Culver City, 5-2 Leuzinger, 5-2 Mira Costa and 3-4 Palos Verdes are all very good football teams that can win games on any given Friday night. "We already knew before the season started how tough the league would be," said Culver City head boys...

1. Kansas City Chiefs (5-0): The Chiefs are coming off a bye in Week 6 and get a rematch of last season's Super Bowl with the 49ers in Santa Clara. This should be a real test for the Chiefs. The 49ers and their fans will be sky high for this game. Next: +1.5 at San Francisco 49ers - Sun, Oct. 20, 1:25 PM PT – O/U: 47 (ATS: 2-3 – O/U: 3-2) 2.

Bye Week couldn't have come at a better time for the 2024 Los Angeles Rams. Usually, it's preferable to have the break towards the latter part of the season schedule. But this season the team has only one win in five games, the worst start since Sean McVay became head coach in 2017. "This one hurts because there were a lot of opportunities that we had," said McVay following a 24-19 loss in Week 5 to the visiting Green Bay Packers at SoFi Stadium last Sunday. "What we have to do is use this bye...

The race now becomes...
This decade, the Los Angeles Sparks have have seen an exodus of marquee players leave the franchise, and that's Curt Miller's fault. They're the only professional franchise in the city without a training facility, and that's Curt Miller's fault. Sparks' ownership has largely fallen asleep at the wheel, and that's Curt Miller's fault. It's low-hanging fruit to pluck in blaming Miller for the current state of the Los Angeles Sparks. He was the latest head coach in a growing string of failed coaches, tasked with navigating the team through the tum...

The 2024 season continues to be a struggle for the UCLA football team. The highly ranked Oregon Ducks football team came into the Rose Bowl on a mission, took a 25-point second quarter lead and never looked back as they easily defeated the Bruins, 34-13.

Football kickers and football offensive linemen have a lot in common. As a kicker if you miss a point after a touchdown, have a punt go off the side of your foot, have a bad kickoff or if you miss a field goal, the big spotlight is on you. As a lineman if you miss a block or if you are called for a penalty it feels like the whole world is watching. Football is a team sport but both positions are magnified when you make a mistake. Kicking may be a little more difficult because it takes at least...
1. Kansas City Chiefs (4-0): The Chiefs are 4-0 and quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been average this season and the Chiefs are still undefeated. That should scare everyone.

Road warriors no more. The Los Angeles Rams lost for the third time in four games to begin the 2024 season. Every single loss has been on the road. The latest, a game they gave away to the Bears, 24-18, at Soldier Field in Chicago, was primarily the result of not capitalizing in the Red Zone on their offensive drives in the first half. The Rams started with a very robust 7-1 road record when Sean McVay took over as head coach of the Rams in 2017. They improved to 28-13 (.682) as the visiting...
The dominance of the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West division never seems to end.

The USC Women's Volleyball team is navigating a season filled with promise and hurdles. With a current record of 9-3 and ranked No. 21 nationally, the Trojans are showing potential but are still working to find their best form. A significant highlight has been the transfer to USC by senior outside hitter Alley Batenhorst, who joined USC after graduating from Nebraska. In a much-anticipated match against her former team last Sunday, Batenhorst led USC with 13 kills, but the Trojans lost to the...
The USC Trojans enter the heart of their 2024 season with a 3-1 record and a No. 11 ranking, but important questions need to be answered about their performance, identity, and potential in the Big Ten. Notably, if only second-half scores were considered, USC would be undefeated, having outscored opponents in each of their first four games: 28-0 against Utah State, 17-10 against LSU, 21-13 against Michigan, and another 28-0 shutout against Wisconsin. This impressive ability to rally showcases...
