Max Scherzer’s free agency could extend into the season, per reports, as teams weigh his veteran presence against durability concerns. Bleacher Report’s Zachary D. Rymer pointed to the Kansas City Royals as a compelling surprise option. “According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic, the latest on Max Scherzer is that he could pull a Roger Clemens and wait until the middle of the 2026 season to pick a team,” Rymer wrote on Monday. “That would make a lot of sense for him, as the last two seasons have proved him to be well past his peak durability.…

CANTON — There were many questions when Canton High School parted ways with football coach Anthony Fallon midway through the fall season. The Bulldogs were 4-0 and the only explanation was that Fallon was dismissed as he dealt with a personal matter. On Monday, the coach took to social media with a string of posts explaining his departure, expounding on a situation with many layers. He said he had been dealing with a legal incident which took place on Sept. 30. Fallon was charged with assault and battery on a person 65 years or older, but was recently found not…

Good mix of veterans and…
The New England Patriots offense struggled during the AFC Championship against the Denver Broncos on Sunday. New England managed only 10 points, with seven of those coming from a red-zone opportunity after a Broncos turnover. It didn’t help that it started snowing and got windy in the second half, making it difficult to throw the ball and gain traction with the running backs. The Patriots will be competing in the Super Bowl at an outdoor stadium in Santa Clara. As long as it doesn’t rain, the weather should provide good playing conditions. Running back TreVeyon Henderson hopes to see the…

FOXBORO — The competition didn’t get any easier for Will Campbell in Sunday’s AFC Championship Game win, but the Patriots rookie left tackle performed better. Campbell didn’t let up a sack in Sunday’s win, though he did allow a QB hit and hurry. The 2025 fourth overall pick had allowed three total sacks in two previous playoff performances against the Chargers and Texans, per PFF. “Thought he played better against a really good rusher,” head coach Mike Vrabel said of Campbell’s performance against Broncos outside linebacker Nik Bonitto. “We’ll need him to keep improving, excited that he has another week…

The Boston Celtics were not expected to be good this season. After losing Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford and Luke Kornet last offseason, plus Jayson Tatum to an Achilles injury, it looked like they would struggle to make the playoffs. But despite losing all that talent, the Celtics have remained one of the best teams in basketball. They’re now 29-17 after beating the Portland Trail Blazers 102-94 at TD Garden on Monday, good for second place in the Eastern Conference behind only the Detroit Pistons. Holiday, who was traded to the Trail Blazers last summer after two seasons with…
The Boston Celtics took care of business at home against the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday night, 102-94. Payton Pritchard led the C’s with 23 points. Jaylen Brown added 20 in what was a lackluster shooting night for Boston (43 percent from the floor). Boston bounced back from Saturday’s loss despite being outscored in the second, third, and fourth quarters. A 32-11 first quarter proved too much for Portland to overcome. The Celtics honored 2024 NBA champion Jrue Holiday after the first quarter with a tribute video. Both he and fellow ex-Celtic Robert Williams were playing their first game back…
