Your replacement for Saturday morning cartoons or that warm cup of coffee has arrived. Or you can just enjoy those things on top of what I'm about to bring to your digital doorstep.
Yes, it's Madden Sim season again.
For the uninitiated, every Saturday morning before a Sunday Detroit Lions game, I'll hop on our YouTube and Twitch channels and fire up a game of Madden 27. I will do my best to adjust the roster as closely as they will be during the actual game, but then I let the computer take over the rest. I do not grab the sticks, I do not call the plays or take over for a specific player. I let the game simulate the result completely, all while providing my own live commentary.
It's also an opportunity for live viewers to do a Q&A. I like to answer any questions you may have about the upcoming game, the Lions' season, or anything else that's on your mind.

The Bees created a great chance following a flowing move in the second minute with Enrique Roca releasing Madden down the left. His cross found the opposite winger, Dwayne Mason, at the back post but he missed the target under pressure and on the stretch.
Kasujja then did well to fashion himself a sight at goal after a clever touch in the box allowed him to get a deflected strike off that Adam Brogan held on to at the second attempt.
Gary McDermott's side were much the brighter of the two in the opening ten, this time Jai Bansoodeb feinted past two Cherries defenders before forcing Brogan to save with his feet from a driven effort.
Tom Stuckey had Bournemouth's first sight at goal as they grew into the game, nodding wide from a floated free-kick when he could have headed back across goal to those waiting in red and black.
Then, on 17 minutes, the home side took the lead with skipper Waite striking across Felix Lyon into the bottom right corner.

GREEN BAY, WI — Notre Dame football linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa (left ACL) did not participate in pregame warmups with his position group on Sunday night at Lambeau Field.
The third-year linebacker, who had been listed as questionable at the start of Wisconsin week, wore sunglasses and sweatpants as he tossed a football to his fellow linebackers along with Notre Dame graduate ****** istants.
Considered a potential high-round NFL Draft pick as soon as next spring, Viliamu-Asa suffered his second career ACL tear to his left knee in the Senior Day win over Syracuse last Nov. 22.

There are frustrating losses, and then there is whatever the White Sox subjected us to on Wednesday night.
Chicago wasted nearly every opportunity it received, went 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position and handed Houston the only two runs it needed in a maddening 2-0 defeat. The lone silver lining came elsewhere, as Cleveland also lost, leaving the White Sox with a three-game lead in the AL Central.
Davis Martin was considerably sharper in his return from the injured list. Making his first start since Aug. 13 after dealing with a blister on his pitching hand, the righthander breezed through a perfect first inning. He needed only nine pitches and received some help from Colson Montgomery, who made an outstanding play at shortstop for the third out.
The White Sox received their first gift in the second when Andrew Benintendi reached on a missed-catch error by LaMonte Wade Jr. Braden Montgomery followed with a 106.8 mph liner, but it was hit directly at Jose Altuve for the first out. Hayden Wesneski then plunked Colson to put two aboard, only for Chase Meidroth to ground into a strange inning-ending double play. It seems like Jose Altuve is always in the middle of these things.
Martin surrendered a one-out single to Daulton Varsho in the bottom half, and Varsho promptly swiped second. There was no reason to panic, however, as Martin struck out the next two batters on six pitches. His four-seamer was especially effective early.

FORT WALTON BEACH — South Walton's success won't be measured against the Gulf Breezes and Fort Walton Beaches, but by the Florida Highs and Pensacola Catholics.
Even so, that doesn't make the Seahawks' 2-0 start and 85-0 margin of victory any less fun.
Following a 50-0 season-opening win over Gulf Breeze at home, South Walton went into Steve Riggs Stadium Friday night and got two touchdown tosses from JD Brown, a pair of touchdown runs from Max Madden and watched its defense extend its scoreless streak to eight quarters in a 35-0 running-clock win over a Fort Walton Beach program that just hung 41 points on Pensacola High.

"Our goal is 10-0, that's the plan," linebacker and Rice commit Connor Rooney said. "We played hard and the defense takes pride in those zeros on the scoreboard. We're never going to look past anyone, and our focus shifts to Florida next week."

Troy Aikman won three Super Bowls with the Dallas Cowboys, but Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo also believes he and Joe Buck deserve credit for bringing one to ESPN.
During his Mad Dog Unleashed radio show on SiriusXM earlier this week, Russo was discussing Tony Romo's future with CBS, guessing the network would love to use his recent arrest as cause to absolve themselves from the rest of the 10-year, $180 million contract he signed in 2020. And if they do get out from under Romo's contract, Russo believes the era of networks paying ***** ysts tens of millions of dollars might be over.
"Now listen, Aikman and Buck got a fortune," Russo admitted. "But they also brought a Super Bowl to ESPN, because I don't know if they would have gotten a Super Bowl unless they had those guys because that's how important they are, Aikman and Buck…so a little different for them. But to pay the top guys $17 million to do the games, we're gonna watch the games no matter what. Not one announcer – and that includes Madden – if you gave Madden a lousy game, you're not gonna watch it…nobody is watching these games to see the announcers."
The stars aligned for Romo to land a $180 million contract from CBS thanks in part to ESPN driving the price up as they vied for his services on Monday Night Football. But falling short in the Romo sweepstakes six years ago turned out to be a great thing for ESPN. Because while CBS was left with what eventually became a Romo problem, ESPN had the flexibility to eventually pluck Buck and Aikman from Fox two years later.
ESPN undoubtedly got the better option for Monday Night Football by landing Buck and Aikman instead of Romo, but the Super Bowl was coming their way regardless. ESPN and ABC got back into the Super Bowl rotation when they signed their 10-year rights agreement with the NFL in 2021. Buck and Aikman didn't move over from Fox until 2022.

A dream came true for Brenda Song on Saturday inside SoFi Stadium.
The veteran star is such a diehard Los Angeles Rams fan that the team not only invited Song (and longtime partner Macaulay Culkin) to a preseason matchup with the New Orleans Saints, they welcomed her into a broadcast booth to offer color commentary on CBS L.A. Song happened to be on the air during the third quarter for one of the game's most thrilling moments when Alex Cook returned an interception 100 yards to the end zone as the Rams dropped an exclamation point on the Saints with a 34-0 victory.

DETROIT — Tigers All-Star outfielder Riley Greene is trending toward a return to the lineup, though manager AJ Hinch isn't ready to put an exact timetable on that. If all goes well, he could return this week during the home stand.
Greene was back in the Comerica Park clubhouse Monday afternoon, Aug. 24, ahead of the opener of a three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays.

The home side were looking to build on a positive performance last time out, despite suffering defeat away from home against Southampton.
There were little to no chances in the opening moments of the game as both sides looked to settle into possession and establish control.
A good team move almost created the opener as Nwosu found Jai Bansoodeb, who carried the ball towards the edge of the box before firing narrowly over.
The young Bees were first to strike, with Nwosu peeling away from his marker before steering a close-range finish past the goalkeeper following a cross from Coran Madden.
The away side could have levelled as Reece Bastafield fired a free-kick towards goal from 25 yards, but Layton Nicholls stretched to tip the ball onto the post.

The new installation of the Madden video game series 'Madden 27' was released earlier this week, meaning that the UCLA Bruins in the NFL got to check out their new overal ratings.
We're just now wrapping up the first week of the NFL preseason, with the regular season now under one month away. The season will kick off with a Super Bowl rematch, as the Seattle Seahawks will host the New England Patriots on Wednesday, September 9th.
For UCLA fans looking to play with their favorite former Bruins in the meantime, here's the 10 highest-rated UCLA players in the new Madden game. The list is kicked off by Kolton Miller, the Raiders' stalwart at tackle, a reigning Super Bowl champ and the Defensive Rookie of the Year.

The Arizona Cardinals aren't expected to be very good in 2026. However, after the start of the preseason, perhaps they won't be quite as bad as people have believed.
While they are projected to have the lowest win total in the NFL, in new preseason power rankings from NFL.com, they aren't at the bottom of the league.
Surprisingly, they are ranked 26th.
Once you're done sipping the Carson Beck Kool-Aid (I know, it really is refreshing), come take a seat with me and consider where the Cardinals are right now. They're entering 2026 with a veteran bridge quarterback, another respected backup behind him and a rookie who turned heads in the Hall of Fame Game. While it carries a lower ceiling, that scenario suddenly doesn't sound too bad, especially when considering the weaponry Arizona has ***** embled: newly minted Madden NFL 99 Club member Trey McBride, No. 3 overall pick Jeremiyah Love, former No. 4 overall pick Marvin Harrison Jr. and 1,000-yard receiver Michael Wilson. Not bad! Much of the Cards' success will depend on whether they can protect Jacoby Brissett and if they can consistently get stops defensively. But despite this No. 26 ranking, I'm shifting toward a sunnier outlook with this team.
Now, ranking 26th isn't exactly good. However, when the perception has been that they will be the worst team in the league and now they are ahead of six, it is a start.

I hope you all will forgive me for spending a portion of my Saturday mornings sorting through various somewhat bleak baseball things in preparation for the coming recap. For instance, today I found myself roaming around looking at the recent game logs for Harrison Grant Holmes and comparing them those of Eduardo Rodriguez (Holmes had a better run recently, at least until today), and then looking at how the Braves as a team hit versus left-handed pitching (10th in the majors, as opposed to 8th vs. right-handers). The Diamondbacks, incidentally, are 2nd in the majors facing lefties, at least in terms of OPS, which was nice to see. But Grant Holmes is not a lefty, so I scrolled down to see how we do against righties, and discovered the rather depressing fact that we rank 29th in the majors in OPS against right-handed pitching. I tend to try to look for something interesting that I could touch on and organize my thinking around, in case a Saturday game goes badly for us, as it feels like they often do.
Anyway. As it turns out, I didn't really need to, though it certainly didn't look like it was going to be that way in the early going. Holmes caught leadoff man Lars Nootbaar looking to start off the game, then got Corbin Carroll to pop out on the infield and Geraldo Perdomo to strike out swinging on three pitches to make short work of the Snakes in the top of the first. Everyone's favorite hologram then came on for the bottom of the frame and gave up hits to the first three batters he faced: a home run to absolutely straightaway center field to Ronald Acuña, Jr., followed by a double to Drake Baldwin and a maddening bloop single just behind shortstop that fell in and advanced Baldwin to third. ERod finally recorded his first out on an Ozzie Albies pop fly to shallow right, but Baldwin crossed the plate on a grounder to second. That wound up being all the damage done, but we were already in a hole and Rodriguez had already thrown 24 pitches. 2-0 Atlanta
Given our dismal 0 for 14 performance last night with runners in scoring position, and given how easily Holmes had disposed of the top of our lineup in the top of the first, it seemed like we were in a very deep hole. But the bottom two thirds of the lineup, perhaps shamed by yesterday's aforementioned dismal performance, were having none of it today. Gabriel Moreno drewa five-pitch walk to lead things off, and was promptly advanced to third by a Max Kepler double into the alley in right center that rolled to the wall. Nolan Arenado grounded out slowly to third, allowing Moreno to score. Then Tim Tawa grounded a single to left, driving in Kepler and tying things back up. But we weren't done! Ildemaro Vargas, starting at second today due to Ketel Marte's gimpy knee, rolled over to second for the second out, but then Ryan Waldschmidt hit an opposite field liner to right that dropped for a single and scored Tawa from second. 3-2 DBACKS
And it was basically off to the races after that. ERod surrendered a

For a football-starved audience, early August cannot come soon enough. Between the NFL, college and fantasy football, there's no shortage of reasons to be excited about what is undeniably America's favorite sport. For gamers, the excitement is two-fold as August's arrival also brings the latest Madden release — and with it the annual Yahoo Sports simulation.
If you're new to the series, we simulate an entire NFL season in "Madden" — Madden NFL 27 in this case — and break down the winners, losers, surprises and disappointments from the virtual year that was. The ground rules for the simulation remain the same: one random team is selected (Chargers) and we start at the regular season using "simple" settings in Franchise Mode.
Some years, the simulation is surprisingly accurate. Other years — like last year — it's jarringly off, so take all of this with a grain of salt.
With all of that said, let's see how Madden predicts the 2026 season.

Texas A&M's third preseason practice, and first full practice open to the media, on Saturday showcased the rise of junior wide receiver Terry Bussey and provided more proof that redshirt junior quarterback Marcel Reed, entering his second full starting season, has significantly improved his accuracy and ball placement.
Among the Aggies' 17 transfer portal additions this offseason, former Northwestern Edge Anto Saka and Tennessee transfer cornerback Rickey Gibson III continue to shine in their roles, looking to replace unanimous All-American pass rusher Cashius Howell and veteran corner Will Lee, who were two of A&M's record 10 players selected in the 2026 NFL Draft.
On Monday, Texas A&M's fifth preseason practice further emphasized the offense, as Marcel Reed and his elite wide receiver rotation, now including Alabama transfer Isaiah Horton, continued to build chemistry, which is already established with Mario Craver and Ashton Bethel-Roman, while freshmen Aaron Gregory and Madden Williams would likely start for several SEC teams who don't possess the Aggies' depth.
Texas A&M's running battle between Rueben Owens and Jamarion Morrow continues to take shape, and after an impressive performance this weekend, freshman KJ Edwards' athleticism continues to impress coach Mike Elko and his staff. Redshirt freshman back Tiger Riden showed off his blocking skills on Monday, and senior linebacker Daymion Sanford's return is nothing short of incredible given the severity of his fibula injury.
Here are the best highlights from Texas A&M's fifth preseason practice on Monday evening.

Derek Carr will be back on a football field soon, but he won't be leading a huddle, calling out protections, or dropping back to pass. He probably won't even be wearing a headset. On Monday, the UCLA Bruins announced that Carr has been hired as a special advisor to head coach Bob Chesney. Chesney was hired after two strong years at James Madison, where he led the Dukes to a 21-6 record and an appearance in the 2025 College Football Playoff.
While Carr remains retired, the New Orleans Saints do still control his contract, and if another NFL team tries recruiting him they can trade him for something in return. This gives him a way to stay around a team and get some coaching experience at the Division I level without being too tied up to pass on the right NFL opportunity. Carr is expected to ******* ist Chesney with game planning and work with the school's quarterbacks, which include 25-game starter Nico Iamaleava and his younger brother Madden, junior transfer Ty Dieffenbach, scout-team sophomore Colton Gumino, and freshman DJ Bordeaux from Aurora, Colo.
Good luck to Carr. Maybe this is the beginning of his coaching career. If he's got something to teach the next generation, this is a good opportunity to get started. Either way, his time in New Orleans is well behind him.

To the surprise of some, Las Vegas Raiders star tight end Brock Bowers is not a part of the 99 club in Madden's latest release. Despite his All Pro rookie season, injuries took their toll last season, limiting his playing time on the year, and diminishing his potential to put up huge numbers.
No matter, he marveled with several big plays, including a spectacular one-handed catch against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 13, which contributes toward him being one of the most exciting players to get ready to use in Madden 27.
Let's take a look at Bowers' overall rating in Madden 27, with the game set to release on all platforms on Aug. 13, and what specifically contributed toward him being the well-rounded tight end that he is in the game.
Brock Bowers has a 93 overall rating in Madden NFL 27.
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride (99 overall) and San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (96 overall) were the only two tight ends who received higher overall ratings than Bowers in Madden 27.

Madden NFL, the video game that allows you to escape reality by doing things like coaching the Jets to a Super Bowl, now belongs to Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund and, in a small but well-compensated way, the President of the United States' son-in-law.
The Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia closed its $55 billion purchase of Electronic Arts on Tuesday alongside Silver Lake and Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners. Shareholders collected $210 a share in cash. EA's stock stopped trading and comes off the Nasdaq, ending a 36-year public run.
It's the largest leveraged buyout in history, a phrase worth sitting with, because the previous record holder was the 2007 buyout of Texas utility TXU, which ended in one of the biggest bankruptcies in American history.
The financing is where this gets video game-level fun. PIF (which already owned roughly 9.9% of EA) borrowed $20 billion from JPMorgan, which also advised the consortium, so JPMorgan earned a fee for recommending the deal and now earns interest funding it. Kushner, who reportedly brokered the introduction between the Saudis and EA, runs a fund that PIF seeded with $2 billion in 2021 over the objections of PIF's own advisers. The money left Riyadh, hired a Kushner, and came home with EA Sports FC and Jedi Survivor.

Few aspects of the Denver Broncos training camp top the risers and fallers.
Everyone knows the players who have their spots on the roster scribbled in ink. But it's the players who are fighting for a spot or clawing their way up the depth chart that creates the best storylines. That's especially true for rookies.
After Broncos practice on Wednesday, Sean Payton was asked if there has been a pleasant surprise at this point.
"Fair question. I think the young runner, you don't feel a rookie with (running back) Jonah (Coleman). He's playing. It's been harder with some of the linemen because we haven't been in pads in fairness to them. Then a couple of these young linebackers, we're getting to see them move around, make the calls. There's a lot to that position, a lot of it is key and diagnose. That's been good."
The fact that Payton singled out Coleman is no doubt a positive sign (thanks, John Madden). When Denver selected the running back out of Washington in the fourth round, the pick was widely celebrated. Adding his running style and abilities to this offense gives the running back room another element and a different running style.

Defensive tackles are more in demand now than they have ever been. The numbers show that quick interior pressure is the best way to disrupt modern quarterbacks, giving interior rushers a huge profile boost.
As important as they are in today's game, there are so many great interior defensive linemen that it's not uncommon for even great defenders at the position to fly under the radar.
That's certainly the case for Carolina Panthers stud Derrick Brown, who's been performing at an elite level since entering the league back in 2020. Those who know ball recognize Brown's ability, though.
Brown is the highest-rated player at his position in Madden NFL 27, and recently earned a top-five ranking at his position from Bucky Brooks at NFL.com. Brooks puts the Pro Bowler at No. 5:
The seventh-year pro's instincts, awareness and violence allow him to be a disruptive presence in the backfield as a rugged player who embodies the ultra-physical approach demanded by Panthers general manager (and former Pro Bowl linebacker) Dan Morgan. As the standard bearer for run-stuffing DTs -- with 65-plus tackles in each of his last three healthy seasons -- Brown has the ability to clog up lanes while enhancing the pass rush as a pocket pusher. He's a cornerstone of Carolina's rising defense under Ejiro Evero.

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Dillon Dingler hit a grand slam in Detroit's seven-run eighth inning and the Tigers opened their longest trip of the season with a 13-1 victory over the Athletics on Friday night.
Kevin McGonigle homered and drove in two runs, and fellow 2023 draft pick Max Clark had three hits, including an RBI double in the big eighth inning to help Detroit get the win in his big-league debut.
The Tigers got a strong performance from their bullpen after deciding to scratch scheduled starter Casey Mize in case a trade develops before Monday's deadline. Tyler Holton started and allowed one run in two innings. Ty Madden (1-0) allowed two hits in three scoreless innings to get the win.
The Tigers won for just the second time in six games to start a three-city West Coast swing and moved within 3 1/2 games of the final wild-card spot in the American League.
McGonigle tied the game with a solo homer off Jeffrey Springs (3-11) in the third inning, He added a sacrifice fly in the fourth in an inning aided by Clark's first career hit.

The disrespect for the reigning Super Bowl LX champions Seattle Seahawks continues to grow. At this point, the growth is a daily feature. I'm talking specifically about the disrespect leveled at the Seahawks by the popular Madden video game franchise.
In the latest edition of the game, Madden 27, the team at EA Sports have been releasing their top 10 rankings for various positions, units and even teams. Seattle's elite defense was mightily disrespected earlier in the week, as Madden 27 had them as only the 10th best unit in the game. Out of the position rankings (defensive tackle, edge, linebacker, cornerback and safety) only one Seahawk - Devon Witherspoon - cracked the top 10 in any of those lists. Players like Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy II, Ernest Jones IV, Julian Love and Nick Emmanwori were nowhere to be seen.
Now, the disrespect continues to an equally insulting degree. On Friday, Madden 27 released their top 10 rankings for teams overall. Yes, Seattle did make the cut... but only barely. According to Madden 27, the Seahawks are only the 10th best team in the game. As for those ahead of them, well, just take a look for yourselves.
The Seahawks obliterated the 49ers in the Divisional Round, outlasted the Rams in the NFCCG (one missed field goal from going 3-0 against them last year) and humiliated the Patriots in Super Bowl LX.

Madden had put Seattle below all three. https://t.co/iQqX3umMZ3
Aside from the three teams I have listed in the tweet above (all with good reasons I laid out, of course) the other two insulting placements come in the form of the Detroit Lions and the Baltimore Ravens. The No. 3 and No. 4 ranked teams, really? Detroit finished 9-8 last season and weren't particularly good at anything, at least when compared to the Seahawks of course. As for the Ravens, they were 8-9 and missed the playoffs like the Lions did as well. I know Baltimore had injuries they dealt with, but they always have injuries! Not to mention they will be rolling with a first year head coach in 2026.

EA Sports unveiled Madden NFL 27 ratings for top-rated players earlier this week, leading up to the full ratings reveal on Friday. We now know the ratings for every Denver Broncos player in this year's version of the NFL's popular video game.
Notably, star cornerback Pat Surtain was snubbed from the "99 Club," reserved for the only players in the game with a perfect 99 overall rating. Surtain also dropped from being the No. 1-rated cornerback in last year's game (97 OVR) to now ranking second (97 OVR), trailing Christian Gonzalez (98 OVR).
Elsewhere on the defense, outside linebacker Nik Bonitto (91 OVR) is the ninth-best pass rusher in the game, and left tackle Garett Bolles (96 OVR) and guard Quinn Meinerz (95 OVR) are the third- and sixth-best offensive linemen in the game, respectively.
View complete player ratings for each Broncos position group below.
Bo Nix has improved from his 79 OVR rating last year.
