𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚: #Jets GM Joe Douglas reveals that there are 5-6 times a day where he sits in his office in “disbelief” that the #Jets have Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback.

5 years ago today, the Lakers traded Kyle Kuzma, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Montrezl Harrell, and a first-round pick to the Wizards for Russell Westbrook…
That day changed everything.
Salute to Dave McMenamin.
He constantly gives us behind the scenes stories and cool nuggets about the NBA and players in it, without getting into take-down artist territory and negative journalism.
We need to be shedding light on the positive and lifting people up, not looking for any way to tear them down.
Sports is supposed to be inspirational!

Like I can’t even began to tell you how horrible this man has been for me and people like me.

@jasonrmcintyre and @SharpFootball discuss if the Seahawks are in for a major regression
@SlaysterrUS They had like 3 really really good chances to force INT's in the first half but didn't. Marcus jones on the first drive, gonzo before half. They had to force TO's to win. Darnold was dying to turn it over but they just couldn't make a play
The Clippers discussed a lucrative 1-year contract north of $20M that would’ve allowed LeBron James to stay at his Brentwood home, but he turned it down, per @mcten
