The GIST: Since we’re once again living in the Trubisky-experience, let’s talk college. Notre Dame football secured their spot in the ACC Championship, and the No. 5 U of I men’s basketball team suffered their first loss of the season to the No. 2 Baylor Bears last night.

The GIST: Although the Washington Football Team’s game against the Steelers was postponed from Sunday to Monday — with trades for the Wizards and the Spirit and a much-deserved accolade for a Mystics athlete — the District’s still popping.

The GIST: The Eagles take on the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, and Villanova basketball has kicked off what looks to be an exciting new season.

The GIST: The Giants are hoping to survive without quarterback (QB) Daniel Jones this week as they take on the Seattle Seahawks. On the court, the Nets gear up to start the season with lots of new faces while the WNBA's Liberty hope to add even more young talent.

The GIST: The Bears extended their losing streak to five straight games after falling 41–25 against their arch rival, the Green Bay Packers, last night.

But college hoops did not disappoint, with upsets and huge blowouts in the first week of play. Now that’s what we’ve been looking for.

The GIST: While we’re still hyped over the Washington Football Team’s Thanksgiving Day victory, let’s talk college hoops in the DMV. Game on!

This week co-hosts Ellen and Steph give you the gist on the quick hits you need (think: The Pope x NBA, COVID-19 in the NFL and MLS playoffs) while diving deep on some key talking points about equality and equal pay in sports. Just in time for your Thanksgiving Zoom debate, er, dinner. Tune in won’t you?

While it might not be safe to go to a movie theater right now, the NBA free agency has given us all the Blockbuster action we need.

The Washington Football Team (WFT) brought the holiday cheer yesterday with a key win, while the Wizards rang in NBA free agency with all the theatrics.

This weekend was a flurry of activity in Beantown: the Patriots lost (sigh), the Celtics made a ton of personnel moves and the Revolution squeaked into the first round of MLS playoffs. Dig in!

The Jets are still winless and both MLS teams lost in play-in games. Maybe Jersey’s the problem?
