The GIST: We’re just over two weeks away from the women’s and men’s March Madness selection and an extra hour of daylight. More basketball and sunshine? Come to mama.

This Week from the Celtics, Bruins, Red Sox

This Week from the Yankees, Nets, Knicks, and Rangers

This Week from the Wizards, the Capitals, and UVA

The GIST: After huge financial losses following the cancellation of last year’s March Madness, not only will the NCAA host the tournament this year, but there will also be a limited capacity crowd allowed to take in the action. Hey, they don’t call it madness for nothing.

This week from the Clippers, Lakers, and Kings.

The GIST: They might have been fashionably late, but the Bruins earned a big win in yesterday’s weather delayed Winter Classic matchup. Meanwhile, the C’s kept up their own trend of blowing big leads. You win some, you lose some.

This week from the Nets and Yankees.

The GIST: This wild week of weather might have put a pause on the games, but, just like the temperature, the off-field headlines are only heating up.

This week from the Eagles, Flyers, and Sixers.

This week from the Capitals and Wizards.

The GIST: Megan Rapinoe scored in the USWNT’s victory over Brazil yesterday, and our local college squads delivered entertainment all weekend long. Nice to have things to cheer for here in the PNW.
