The Flyers have fired head coach John Tortorella after 2+ seasons at the helm, the team announced. Tortorella failed to make the playoffs in Philly, posting a cumulative 97-107-33 record.

Trade! The Eagles are trading QB Kenny Pickett to the Browns in exchange for QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson and a 2025 fifth-round pick, per source. Pickett lands back in the AFC North.

Breaking: Justin Fields has reached an agreement on a two-year, $40M deal that includes $30M guaranteed with the New York Jets, sources told Adam Schefter.

Jake Diebler talking about his team’s resume heading into the Big Ten tournament stumping for his program saying the resume is good and that the strength of schedule has prepared the team. @nbc4i.bsky.social @ohiostatehoops.bsky.social

BJ Hill back to the Bengals for 3-years, $33M per Schefty. He deserves it and this does not preclude them from getting deals done with Chase & Higgins done but I can only imagine the reaction of Bengals fans when these non-WR extensions get reported.

I really hope it was intentional for someone or something to crash Twitter on day 1 of NFL Free Agency 🤣😂

Yeah, that just looks right. Weird seeing him in any other jersey, honestly.

Everyone Watches Women's Sports. 💪🏻♥

“Agents and teams are hitting us up like, ‘What are you guys doing?’ Because they follow this stuff just as much as we do. So when X goes down, they’re operating without a net here. They have no idea where to find all this stuff.” - Mike Garafolo

Left tackle Jaylon Moore to the Kansas City Chiefs on a two-year deal, per Adam Schefter on ESPN

It is Crewsmas Eve Eve -- and with just 2 days until the 2025 season opener I caught up with General Manager Issa Tall and of course I asked about Cucho's transfer. That clip is here and also here is a link to the full, raw conversation. www.nbc4i.com/video/crew-g... @nbc4i.bsky.social #Crew96

Just saw a 3-shot on ESPN of Stephen A. Smith, Desmond Howard and Cam Newton and it was like the television version of a clown car.

The Columbus Fury have kicked off their preseason camp at Columbus School for Girls and the players received a highly energetic welcome this morning! @nbc4i.bsky.social

The former Wolverines dominated the scoring for the #CBJ in the win over Calgary. I asked Adam Fantilli if he feels that's a good omen for tomorrow. #TheGame @nbc4i.bsky.social @bluejackets.bsky.social

Happy Thanksgiving from our little turkey! So thankful we have all escaped to this space. 🦃🥧🍁🍂🧡🤎

Claire understood the assignment at daycare. 💪🏻🎄❤️

I truly thought about going to the Ohio State men’s hoops game tonight for funsies and wearing a pair of shorts backwards. #IYKYK

It’s like Christ❌mas ❌orning in Colu❌bus and the little elves have crossed out all the “M’s”on ca❌pus. #RivalryWeek #TheGame

McConnell today.

Ohio State's Luciana Perry is headed to the quarterfinals of the NCAA women's singles championships! #Buckeyes

Some Ohio State tennis going on today at the NCAA Championships singles tournament. On the men's side, Aidan Kim is in a decisive third set against Wake's Dhakshineswar Suresh. On the women's side, Luciana Perry just started her singles match and leads 2-0 in the first set. #Buckeyes

A thread of Ryan Day's comments from today's presser ahead of the showdown with Indiana...

Some thoughts on the passing of someone who had so much influence on my childhood: Bela Karolyi.

Carnell Tate 🥹

Would’ve been nice to see Carnell’s touchdown 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s been 20 years since the last Northwestern-Ohio State upset. And right now the Wildcats lead 7-0 after a 13-play drive that started at NW’s own 8 yard line. #Buckeyes #B1GCats

Northwestern’s offense is ranked one of the WORST in college football (131 out of 133). Right now they are just doing what they want against this Ohio State defense. #Buckeyes #B1GCats

I’ll tell you what: the purple Cats came to play. #Buckeyes #B1GCats

Welp overruled to incomplete.

Good grief Jeremiah Smith

Northwestern had a great strategy on that opening drive — and one absolutely terrible mistake.

ICYMI: We did an exclusive interview with #Crew96 GM Issa Tall, where he shared his thoughts the upcoming offseason for Columbus and the future of Cucho with the club www.dispatch.com/story/sports...

So grateful to be at a university where this can be our #osusportsjournalism classroom, with amazing mentors like Hanna Williford, @whitneyharding.bsky.social and Jayla Van Horn! Ohio State rocks!!

To be clear, I mean the club -- not the fans. I know y'all are here. Y'all are everywhere.

Caught up with Adam Fantilli today. He likes the way both he & the team have been playing despite losing. "We gotta execute. We're getting our chances and it shows. But we gotta put the puck in the net. I'm looking at myself first for that too. I haven't put enough in." #CBJ

Soooo @brimackay15.bsky.social is here now. @fishertyler.bsky.social is here. @massivereport.bsky.social is here. Yo, #Crew96...where you at!?!? (I love that I'm asking and they are clearly not on here.)

I'll keep adding as more join -- and also let me know who else should be included! go.bsky.app/HVsXx5i

The message was included in a weekly staff newsletter sent out Sunday evening, and district representatives said she was placed on leave effective Thursday. DETAILS: nbc4i.co/3URSeKV

YES. YES YES YES. Also for an LPGA Event. NWSL. Let's just keep going!

Y'all, deck.blue. Amazing.

453 days after being shot during a carjacking, Ohio State wrestler Sammy Sasso returned to competition. Before his comeback moment, I sat down with Sammy to learn about this new version of himself -- and his excitement to be back. @nbc4i.bsky.social My story: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaFv...

Tonight on NBC4 at 5pm, it's a story more than 400 days in the making: Sammy Sasso is back. I was able to chat with him ahead of his big return to learn about his nerves, perspective and the new version we will see on the mat. @nbc4i.bsky.social #Buckeyes #wrestling #SammySasso #SassoStrong

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Bluesky, meet Henry Higgins.

Okay obsessed with the Lists feature on here.
