"I found no evidence of it" Jeff Passan on the flat earther conspiracy about Jose Altuve and a wire. If you believe he wore a wire, you love the metric system

[Olivia Lavita Alize Jenkins Pope @DaniReneeW]

Looked up and my intern is commentating the @BleuDevilsVB game.l on @HBCU_Plus.

@MarcusBland23 is phenomenal!! I am SO PROUD 🥹

@The_CoreyHodges you have to watch the replay and listen to him. Reminds me of you covering the volleyball games.

BREAKING: The NFL and NFLPA have agreed to a settlement on discipline for #Browns QB Deshaun Watson, who will serve an 11-game suspension and pay a $5 million fine for violating the league’s personal conduct policy, per league source.

[Brian LaLima @BLima790]

Yordan Alvarez is the best hitter in the American League and arguably the best hitter in Major League Baseball. Alvarez should be the starting DH in the All-Star Game, not Shohei Ohtani. #LevelUp #AllStarGame

Shout out to Rafael Stone ‼️😂

[ClutchFans @clutchfans]

The Rockets may have just struck pure gold today. GOLD. The draft picks owed to Houston:

2023 first-round pick swap
2024 first-round pick
2025 first-round pick swap
2026 first-round pick
2027 first-round pick swap

Every single one is... (wait for it) ... UNPROTECTED.
