Rob Manfred said MLB is considering prediction market partnerships, per @JeffPassan
“We might want to consider being in be business with prediction markets in an effort to protect our integrity, to get the kind of protections we need.”

Billionaires in sports are fucking awesome. A ticket costs as much as a car payment. Every NFL stadium is now a Madden-generated dome. And 90% of them don’t care about winning. But at least we have more VIP space!
So basically the Luis Robert Jr. trade is:
White Sox trade Luis Robert Jr. and Gage Ziehl for Luisangel Acuna, Truman Pauley, Seranthony Dominguez, Austin Hays(not official yet), Jordan Hicks and David Sandlin and cash considerations.
Bills owner Terry Pegula:
"I'll address the Keon Coleman situation. The coaching staff pushed to draft Keon... (Beane) has taken heat over it, I am here to tell you the true story"
Not a statement you see regularly about a player still on the roster!
Former Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel is expected to become the Chargers offensive coordinator barring a change of heart, per @JeffDarlington and me. McDaniel has informed other teams that they’re out, the Chargers clearly want him, and the two sides are having dinner tonight. But the expectation across the league is that McDaniel will be staying in LA.
Indiana is very good because they complete every pass for 8 yards, and they also don’t let you complete any passes for 8 yards. It’s really quite mesmerizing.
This is my new favorite thing in football. “You never know if you’ll get back here”.
Jared Goff had 4 turnovers in a playoff game so now every team that’s good is a one-hit wonder.
For any Bears fans saying “we’ll be back”.
Maybe, maybe not.
Packers and Lions fans said this after ‘23. Neither team made a championship game since then.
Hell, Commanders fans said this after last season too and went 5-12.
This may be the top of the mountain for the Bears.
NFL refs are a cult man. These guys could shoot somebody on the field and they’d go to an ex-ref in the booth who’d say “yeah you know Al, I think it was warranted!”
“That handshake and all that mother-f stuff from Ben Johnson did not go over well with the McVay tree … and around the league.”
@PSchrags can’t wait to see Ben Johnson and Sean McVay go at it.
Matt LaFleur on #PMSLive throws a friendly jab back at Bears HC Ben Johnson
“Chicago has done a nice job of adding to their roster and you get a good football coach, as he said himself, in Ben Johnson” 😂😂
