I don’t know where this Mets season is going, but I’m sure glad it’s going there with Benge and Ewing.

[John Massingale @JohnMassingale4]

Good reminder that, Fresh off a 12-1 season, Notre Dame voluntarily suspended their starting QB Everett Golson for the entirety of the 2013 fall semester for cheating on a test.

Texas Tech is not only shamelessly allowing a player who bet on his own games to play for their team…they appear to have rigged the local courts to make sure it happened.

The opinions and moral posturing of Joey Mac and Texas Tech administration should never be taken seriously.

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

The Brendan Sorsby court ruling is unlike any NCAA loss before it.

This one is unconscionable.

Shame on Texas Tech for supporting it.

Athletes *know* they can't bet on their own team. It's to preserve competitive integrity — and it's why today's ruling left so many in CFB speechless.

Actions should have consequences, and those consequences should not be voided by friendly judges. https://t.co/c1YjmQhoN4

I spent some time with Brendan Sorsby for College GameDay last fall and I really like him. But he shouldn’t be playing college football this fall. There are lots of very fuzzy rules but when it comes to what he did it’s very clear. Except, apparently, to a Texas judge.

It's pretty crazy how we have both the World Cup and America 250 this year and almost no one cares about them because the administration has wholly sucked the joy out of even momentous national events.

The kids will never experience the joy of having the all star ballot handed out at a baseball game

I’m pretty sure that if the #Mets had chosen to rebuild, they would’ve been better than this.

[Lauren🏒 @Ms_NYRangers]

Jalen Brunson: took a $113 million pay cut to stay with the Knicks and give the team a real chance to win.

Aaron Judge: could’ve made more money elsewhere but chose to stay loyal to the Yankees.

Juan Soto: squeezed every possible dollar out of free agency — money he arguably isn’t worth — and reportedly made his decision over perks like a family suite at Citi Field.

I’ve got nothing but respect for the first two. The last one made a deal with the devil, and players who chase only the bag rarely end up winning in the end.

Indiana won the National Championship.
Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl.
Knicks are in the NBA Finals.

Apply for your dream job.
Buy your mom a house.
Hit up your crush.

2026 is the year to just go for it all.

[Mike Mayer @mikemayer22]

45 years ago today, Yale's Ron Darling & St. John's Frank Viola matched up in the greatest college pitching duel ever.

Both starters made it through 11 scoreless innings.

Darling didn't allow a hit until the 12th inning but St. Johns won 1-0.

[Sam Block @theblockspot]

New York Mets… no longer a mess.
• 3-0 in last 3
• 6-1 in last 7
• 10-4 in last 14

This is what happens when you call up young talent.

[The Best @TheBestqueenx]

The mascot had no idea that approaching the security guard would become one of the most legendary moments ever.

[Amazin' Army @WE_ARE_MET_FANS]

In 7 full seasons with the Mets, Pete Alonso missed a total of 24 games

In his first month and a half with the Mets, Jorge Polanco has missed 26 games

Her dying wish was to see Keith Urban perform one last time. But her health prevented her from getting to the concert. So Keith Urban came to her... This melts my heart 🥹❤️

[Mayor Craig Greenberg @LouisvilleMayor]

From working her way up on the backside to becoming the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby, Cherie DeVaux's legacy has been formed in Louisville.

Today, I was proud to make her an honorary citizen.

[Michael Baron @michaelgbaron]

4 different third basemen.
4 different first basemen (none are actually first basemen, btw).
4 different shortstops.
8 different lieft fielders.
3 different center fielders.
5 different right fielders.

Meet the worst team in baseball - the 2026 #Mets.

[Jordan Moore @iJordanMoore]

The Tampa Bay Rays are 26-13, the best record in the AL.

Their payroll ranks bottom 3 in MLB at $87 million. Their highest-paid player is Yandy Díaz ($12M).

Every year they find a way to compete with teams spending 3x as much. One of the most impressive organizations in sports.

@clambeaufo @MollyJoRosen Byk got tons of TV time.
