2025 CF Willie Desantis (@HBC_Bulls) gets things started this inning for the bulls with a single up the middle. Nice approach, great start to the inning

The only thing cooler than @andrewdepaola is voting your team's long snapper to the Pro Bowl.

Let's do it, @Vikings fans!

[Courtney Cronin @CourtneyRCronin]

I like long snappers. I like feel good stories. I like feel good stories about long snappers, so I hope you'll enjoy this on Andrew DePaola's 5-year journey onto an NFL roster by way of jobs at Best Buy, his family's restaurant and endless determination.

Matt Bollero, Senior Director of Scouting for the NBA Champion Milwaukee Bucks, has resigned from the franchise in order to pursue player representation and development in both basketball and golf, sources tell ESPN. Bollero is well-regarded in NBA circles.

@batemanjames @kdpsu232 @PennStateMLAX @Rbateman43 @jbarnett_BCPS Stoltz is obviously the correct answer. It's just unfortunate they stuck him in goal when he was clearly a natural attackman. Some say he invented the swim move.

[Relay Elementary @Relay_BCPS]

Relay is proud to announce that Mr. Barnett was selected as the administrator of the year by the Maryland School Counseling Association. What an honor! Congratulations Mr. Barnett!

I’m not Giannis—I don’t have back-to-back league MVPs (he will in a matter of days)—and he’s not me. The question is... who were you as a player? 😂

[Jason Parks @ProfessorParks]

We just lost a teammate. This is for his family. All donations are being matched by the Diamondbacks. https://t.co/T4I6zPnFBT
