OSLO VIKINGS RETURN … TO NORWAY!
After two years in Sweden, the former norwegian serial champions have announced their return to their home country.In their first year in Superserien, the Vikings (surprinsingly) reached the Semis where they lost to the later champion Carlstad Crusaders and fielded the Leagues MVP in Linebacker Will Sewell Jr. Though after the departure of former HC Derek Mann they couldn’t replicate the success of their inaugural season in 2025!

5 Takeaways from Superserien 2025
A (POSSIBLE) NEW DYNASTY
We might have a new dynasty on our hands. The Carlstad Crusaders were Swedish champions for 8 years in a row between 2010 and 2017 and HC Christian Forsman might have just restored that old glory with a second consecutive title.
Crusaders key players seem to be going nowhere and they are reinforcing their strong homegrown squad with clever (and long-term) import choices each season. As we see what unfolds in the offseason, we could be looking at yet

Superserien Award Predictions
MVP - Jakub Brezina (ÖBK)
There should be no other option. Jakub Brezina is by far the most valuable player in this league. The Black Knights looked like a completely different team with him and the statistics speak for themselves. 774 rushing yards (1st in the league), 11 rushing TDs (1st in the league), an 82 yard longest run (1st in the league), 0 fumbles and an extra 122 receiving and 265 kick return yards. Nothing short of spectacular...

Superserien Week 11 Power Rankings
1A. Carlstad Crusaders (-)
With a dominant 49-0 victory, the Crusaders have sent the Limhamn Griffins into the offseason. The reigning champions seem to only have gotten stronger over the course of the season and will now face the Örebro Black Knights for the #1 seed in the playoffs. But careful! A loss and a Tyresö win could mean a drop all the way to #3 and, in turn, losing precious home field advantage.
1B. Örebro Black Knights (+0.5)
Örebro or Carlstad, that seems to be

WTF is going on in Spain?!
This is the most competitive season the LNFA has seen in decades, marked by the first loss of Las Rozas Black Demons in 2 years, who has recently fell against the Osos de Rivas.
After 9 weeks and 35 games played, we are in the midst of the LNFA season. With only one regular season week left, it’s safe to say that, at least this year, the Spanish league has turned into one of the most entertaining competitions in Europe.
I'm aware that a statement of that caliber is no joke,

Does the NFL Have a Development Problem?
For several seasons now, a growing murmur has echoed through the corridors of the National Football League. The league has increasingly fast-tracked its young prospects, pushing them onto the field earlier than ever and handing them ever-greater responsibility. Some of those players never fully develop, hindered by deeper structural issues in their progression.
That trend has become impossible to ignore. In recent years, NFL franchises have entrusted rookies with enormous re
