Avalanche Game 30 Recap: Rough Night in Winnipeg
So quite a bit happened regarding the Colorado Avalanche following the team's five game homestand. The team traded Tomas Tatar to the Seattle Kraken, receiving a 5th-round pick in return. The Avs acquired Tatar during the offseason from the New Jersey Devils, but his start to this season has not been a good one. Tatar, usually a 20-goal-per-season player, only put one puck in the net this season. The assists were there, but the goals weren't. Tatar's only goal with the Avs came in the 6-5 comeback win over the Calgary Flames; it was actually the Avs' first goal of the game.

63 Strikes, You're Out!. Top Story - December 2023.
They did it, folks. They finally did it. The Los Angeles Chargers actually fired Brandon Staley as their head coach, with the firing coming after the Chargers suffered a very embarrassing loss on national television. The Chargers were on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders, and it was a game that saw the Raiders absolutely pour it on. 63 points. Nine touchdowns--seven of them by the offense. The 63 points fell just 10 short of the long-standing record set by the Chicago Bears, who scored 73 points in the 1940 NFL Championship Game over Washington. However, the Raiders' 63 points are the most in team history, and marked the second time this season that a team scored 60+ points--the Miami Dolphins scored 70 points in Week 3.

Avalanche Game 29 Recap: Welcome Home
The Colorado Avalanche's five-game homestand concluded with the second and last meeting of the season against the Buffalo Sabres. The first game was a close 3-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks, but it was followed by two-goal losses to the Winnipeg Jets and the Philadelphia Flyers. It looked like the homestand would be a failure when the Avs fell behind by two goals late against the Calgary Flames, but Colorado scored three in the final eight and a half minutes to win it. Right now, the Avs needed to win this one to salvage the homestand.

Crowded (Week 15)
It never fails. Every December features an NFL playoff race that is just captivating, entertaining, thrilling, and yes, mind-boggling. As it often does, it gets tighter as the weeks run out, but this year has been just insane. The results of Week 14 have seen one team lock in a spot in the 2023 playoffs, but the remaining 13 spots have nearly the whole league still alive and very close in record, for the most part.

Reviewing a Pair of Villainesses from "Echo Base"
Tubi has really been bringing it this year with their original films, and the villainesses who have graced them. It reached a point last year where I included Tubi in my year-end list, and this year, well, Tubi's turned it up. Among such amazing films from Tubi this year is the action-packed sci-fi thriller, Echo Base, which begins with an apparent attack on London, with Capt. Skylar Reagan and her partner, Lt. Malik Wheeler, needing to act fast on this mission. However, it's quickly revealed as a simulation, and it went sideways because the pair were at odds regarding what they needed to do.

NFL Week 14 Recap: We Have to Talk About Patrick
OK, let's talk about the elephant in the room. Coming off their primetime loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Kansas City Chiefs returned home to host the Buffalo Bills, and we know the history there. The Chiefs have been Buffalo's playoff bogeyman for a few years now, and in this meeting, KC was looking to bounce back against a Bills team who is unpredictable. Buffalo's known for losing to teams they should beat, yet in KC, they were on fire. Bills led the whole game, and that included a late 20-17 lead in the fourth quarter. However, in typical fashion, the Chiefs came back in unorthodox fashion: Patrick Mahomes tosses it to Travis Kelce, who then throws a lateral to Kadarius Toney, who scores a go-ahead touchdown. Chiefs take the lead, and were set to beat the Bills again.

Here We Go Again: The 2023 NFC South
You know how every reality show has that trainwreck cast member who we just can't quit watching, no matter how much we should just look away? That's the NFC South in the NFL. And apparently, the football gods liked seeing this division go to pot so much, that they decided to bring back this wacky recurring character for a second season.

Villainess Review: Nicole Whitfield (The Perfect In-Laws)
I had been looking forward to this one for a while, it was Reel One Entertainment's latest contribution to Lifetime. The Perfect In-Laws was set at the wealthy Whitfield estate, and it actually started with a flashback scene of the family's matriarch suddenly passing away while in the bathtub. On to the present day, which sees the film's central character, Audrey Sinclair, on his way to the house, as she's engaged to Xander Whitfield.

Avalanche Game 27 Recap: Trouble at Ball Arena
The Colorado Avalanche's home loss to the Winnipeg Jets left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. To me, the game was lost when the Jets scored that goal with 2.2 seconds left in the first period, because that took away whatever momentum the Avs had--hell, Winnipeg actually scored to start the second period. Even so, these are the Avalanche, and this team usually bounces back from losses like this. Plus, this was the third game of the Avs' five-game homestand, and home cooking is always good for teams.

Avalanche Game 26 Recap: Momentum Shift
The Colorado Avalanche's five-game homestand got off to a thrilling start, winning 3-2 over the Anaheim Ducks to finish the season series. One down, four to go, and the next team to enter Ball Arena was the Winnipeg Jets--the first meeting of the season between the division foes. As an Avs fan, I have been focused on the Dallas Stars, but I have not forgotten about the Jets, as they are in the thick of this Central Division race as well. The Jets are coming off a playoff appearance in the previous year; their fifth in their last six years, and their seventh since moving to Winnipeg from Atlanta (where they played for 11 seasons as the Atlanta Thrashers).

What a Mother Wouldn't Do: Reviewing Shayna Wayne's Heel Turn
Seriously, if you didn't see this coming, then I don't know what to tell you. Two months have passed since Nick Wayne turned heel on Darby Allin at WrestleDream, doing so in favor of joining Christian Cage and the then-named Luchasaurus, now known as Killswitch. Prior to this, a few of Nick's battles against his now-allies have included the presence of his mother, Shayna Wayne, in the crowd cheering on her son. However, when Nick joined the dark side, the woman known as "Mama Wayne" to AEW fans was shocked at what her son had become.

Movin' On Up! (Week 14)
Week 13 was quite chaotic; so many changes to the playoff picture in the National Football League, with many teams climbing the ranks. Five weeks remain in the season, and while it seems like very little time, it's still plenty of time for teams looking to make an impact. While the last six weeks of the season serve as the home stretch, panic time doesn't really start until Christmas hits, and that's still a few weeks away.
