Expected Changes Coming This Upcoming 2025/26 Red Bull Racing Season

By Roman Contreras Photo from Red Bull Racing’s Instagram Last season, Oracle Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen won the Drivers’ Championship for the 2024/25 F1 season. His path to victory was not as easy as it was the previous season, yet he prevailed to win three drivers’ championships in a row. This newest season for Red Bull introduces Liam Lawson as their second driver. The previous driver was Checo Perez and he has unfortunately left the team after a poor 2024 performance.

For this season the Bulls are expected to make a huge impact on the track as they have in previous seasons, even i...

One-Way or the Highway: Comparing Luka Dončić and Anthony Davis

By Jackson Melin From left to right: Luka Dončić and Anthony Davis. Photo by ESPN On Feb. 2 the Dallas Mavericks had a blockbuster trade package that included point guard Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers. In return, the Mavericks received power forward Anthony Davis.  The trade was seen as a surprise to analysts and players. On social media, Mavericks fans felt betrayed by the transaction.  Many speculated the reason as to why the team would trade Dončić for an older player in Davis. Both players have many of the same accolades: All-Stars status, All-NBA team affiliations and Olympic achievements. However, among popular media, there seems to be a consensus winner of this trade. That being the Lakers.    Some insider reports have stated that ...

Jackson’s Journal: Simple Bears’ Necessities

By Jackson Melin Quarterback Caleb Williams and wide receiver Rome Odunze, photo by the Chicago Bears Since 2000, the Chicago Bears have had 20 starting quarterbacks, tied for second most of all time. No Chicago Bears quarterback has ever thrown for more than 3,900 yards or 30 touchdowns. The Bears were founded in 1920, yet only have one Super Bowl win to their name (excluding pre-NFL championships). With that in mind, how does this franchise only have one ring? One word, ineptness. Reflecting on the years that have passed, you’ll find continued errors, wasted opportunities and failure to learn from previous mistakes. The Bears have passed on franchise-altering talent since its conception. Here’s a short list of the available missed players in the past 15 years: Patrick Mahom...
