Thought I was gonna feel really old watching the BET Awards, but thanks to this 106 and Park throwback segment, my knees don’t hurt right now!

Fun fact: You’re NOT supposed to have this much fluid in your knee! 😬

Scottie Scheffler is on his Thanos vibe for real right now. He. Is. Inevitable.

Ernie Johnson is the best of all of us!

Sunday’s Game 3 performance by Karl-Anthony Towns was motivated by much more than just the threat of the Knocks falling down 0-3 to the Pacers. Sunday was also Dominican Mother’s Day. KAT lost his mom, Jacqueline Cruz, in April of 2020.

Breaking: Jayson Tatum tore his right Achilles tendon and underwent successful surgery on Tuesday to repair it, the Celtics announced. No timetable is currently available for his return, but he is expected to make a full recovery.

Making the NYT Sports Connections was NOT on my career bingo card! 😄

It was another fun two days here at The Masters interviewing the players after their rounds. Now it’s time to sit back and watch who wins the green jacket this year! #masters

This image will go down in infamy: Kristi Noem using abused El Salvadoran prisoners—some of whom she illegally deported in the dark of night, without due process—as props in a Trump ad in which she sports a $60,000 Rolex These men have already been left in a hole to die—was that not enough for her?

For college coaches who complain about all the “poaching” that’s going on now, there sure was a lot of poaching of coaches today..
