Dream come true to be on the cover of Madden! See you Thursday in Chicago for the full reveal 😎

[DJ Siddiqi @DJSiddiqi]

Great event by EA Sports as they celebrated Caleb Williams' Madden cover with the Opening Drive event. Had a great talk with Caleb before he matched up with Cam Newton in Madden. Michael Vick -- the greatest Madden player ever -- Chad Ochocinco and Malachi Toney also took part in some of the fun.

The #49ers could benefit from trading a former Pro Bowler coming off of a career season if the price is right.

Clint Dempsey on why Cristiano Ronaldo's legacy is the most at stake in this 2026 World Cup:

"Oh, I'll say the player that has the most pressure on them for their legacy, and I don't know if it's fair to say that, but I would say Cristiano Ronaldo," said Dempsey. "In the sense that Messi has already won a World Cup with Argentina, I feel like that's the one thing that's eluded him, he's won everything else."

Team USA had a lot of bright spots in their 3-2 win over Senegal, but Landon Donovan noticed one glaring weakness that could pose an issue for the host country entering the World Cup.

More from my 1-on-1 interview with the Team USA great:

Exclusive: John Smoltz talks Braves, N.L. Race, Blue Jays and Golf

John Smoltz on the key to the #Braves remaining a contender after a hot start to the 2026 season as the best #MLB team.

"It’s all health,” Smoltz said in an exclusive interview. “Their ability to stay healthy is going to be how they navigate the National League, which is loaded with teams. If they can keep their pitching staff healthy, they’re going to be right there and can beat anybody.

Emmitt Smith on why #Cowboys signing Dak Prescott to a $240 million deal is the best decision they've made since Tony Romo was there.

"I think having Dak Prescott as a Dallas Cowboys quarterback is the best thing that the Cowboys have done since Tony Romo left," said Smith

[Michael Redd @MichaelRedd_]

Lot of new followers lately, so hey. I'm Michael Redd.

Some of you know me from a Final Four run at Ohio State almost 30(!) years ago, some from my stint with the Milwaukee Bucks (and Phoenix Suns), and some from my place on the 2008 Redeem Team. That said, many of you likely have no idea who I am, and that's cool too!

Since I retired from the NBA, I've been building. Ventures, investments, startups. Trying to find the next good idea and the people brave (crazy?) enough to build it. I've also been hanging with my family, been active in select charities and foundations, and been getting good (humbly, ha!) at golf.

Recently, I've been sharing sports takes on here and other platforms.

NBA, WNBA, college, some NFL and MLB. The welcome's been warmer than I expected and the internet clearly has a lot of hoops takes...and knowledge. Having a blast with it at the moment, honestly.

There's no real end goal or play in joining social after all these years. No agenda or item to sell. Ideally, I really just want to share what I know, tell some old stories, show love for the players out here doing it now and the OGs who did it before, and just talk ball with good people.

Glad you're here.

And if you made it through all of that writing and stream of thoughts, I think you might like it here, ha.

Had the chance to talk to former NFL MVP Joe Theismann, where he gave his thoughts on his former team -- that's right, the #Dolphins -- and what is considered a successful debut season for Malik Willis in Miami.

"I think to be consistent, number one, not make the big mistakes," said Theismann of Willis.
