Specialization has become a hot-button topic inside youth sports circles. Should kids play one sport, focusing and honing specific skills? Or should they play multiple sports throughout the year, building an overall foundation and a wider range of abilities?
Whatever side of the chalk line you fall on, no reservation can be put on the historic feat that was attempted on this date (Oct. 11) in 1992.
Kawamura was waived by the Clippers on Monday. Competing on an Exhibit 10 contract, Kawamura tallied 10 points in Saturday's preseason loss to the Raptors but will ultimately fall short of earning an Opening Night roster spot. The guard is now a likely candidate to see action with the G League's San Diego Clippers.

It will run until the second round of the playoffs, at which point 3DownNation will produce standalone articles for each game.
It was a light week of U Sports action, as Canada West, Réseau du Sport Étudiant (RSEQ), and Atlantic University Sport (AUS) had byes for the long weekend. Three Ontario University Athletics (OUA) teams also sat out, as the Guelph Gryphons, Laurier Golden Hawks, and Waterloo Warriors were idle.
The hiring of Liam Coen as head coach of the Jaguars has been very good for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. After Coen arrived, Lawrence became one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. Case in point: Lawrence has produced more touchdowns since the start of the 2025 season than all NFL quarterbacks except two: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford and Bills quarterback Josh Allen. Via NBC Sports research, Lawrence has 49 total touchdowns (40 passing, nine rushing). Stafford and Allen have 58 each. The Jaguars have also won 11 of their last 13 games. That gives them the best record in the AFC over that span. And, on Sunday morning, they’ll play their 15th game in London — three times more than any other NFL team. Their record in London is 7-7. And they’ll play their next two there, against the Eagles in Week 5 and the Texans in Week 6.

And the inline hockey community says their sport is being left out of that conversation. A recent ban on Rollerblade-style skates at two new Burnaby sports boxes has not helped.

Even with no dog in this year’s World Series hunt again — it’s been 40 long years since the last New York Mets championship — I’m still watching the Major League Baseball playoffs. In fact, not having a specific team to root for makes the games less emotionally taxing, and more enjoyable. I can’t say the same for the complicated experience of watching sports on TV. There was a time when you knew which free, over-the-air broadcast networks aired which leagues. When ESPN and regional sports networks entered the picture, a pricey cable package was necessary, but at least there were only a few more channels to keep track of. In the last couple of years, though, streaming giants like Netflix and Amazon Prime have been scarfing up live sports. Everything has changed. With rare exception, my pregame ritual now includes scrolling through a cable menu to see where the game is being shown, if it’s available on regular TV at all. If it’s not, I have to turn to a search engine to find said game, too often discovering it’s on a cable channel I don’t have or streaming on a service I don’t subscribe to.
Conwell posted 22 points (7-18 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine assists, five rebounds and two steals over 32 minutes during the Heat's 125-124 loss to the Timberwolves during Saturday's preseason game. Conwell saw most of his playing time and production during the second half of Saturday's exhibition game while the starters rested. The rookie second-rounder has made a strong early impression during training camp, and if he can carry that momentum into preseason games, then he could force his way into a rotational role for the Heat for the 2026-27 season.

The Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation says the rink at Queen Elizabeth park needs renewal and several other outdoor courts in Vancouver face similar age-degradation issues. (CBC)Inline skates have been banned from Burnaby’s two newest multi-use sports boxes, leaving roller hockey players concerned about the next generation of players and with few options to play outdoors. The city opened the Sohen Gill and Jack Crosby sports boxes in April 2024, which was met with excitement from the roller hockey community before the city prohibited inline skates from the facilities.
The controversy surrounding a pair of NFL referees getting suspended due to their conduct toward players this past week led Tom Brady to take a bad trip down memory lane, but not in the way you might think. In the most recent edition of #AskTom, Brady was asked what the worst thing he ever heard a ref say during his playing days. His answer wasn't a message that a referee personally gave him. Rather, it was a call that led to arguably the worst loss of Brady's career. "This one’s a little easier than I thought: ‘The catch on the field has been confirmed’ on the David Tyree catch," Brady said, referring to Tyree's remarkable reception in the New York Giants' upset win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. "That was the worst thing I could’ve ever imagined. "The Tyree catch is arguably the greatest catch in NFL history. With the Giants trailing 14-10 in the final minutes, Eli Manning somehow ran his way out of a sack before completing a 32-yard pass to Tyree, who pinned the ball to his helmet to complete the catch. Four plays later, the Giants scored the game-winning touchdown, ruining the Patriots' chances to become the first team to go 19-0 in NFL history.
