@coachmlew Congrats; what an incredible game. Now I've gotta write about it ... lol

[Sonny Dearth / Virginian-Pilot @sdearthvp]

Great move by @ballout_kaleb to get inside that defender. My gosh, what a game.

This is excellent work by Stefanos Tsitsipas to make week 2 of the U.S. Open for the first time in his career, after what has been a difficult last couple of years. He’s come back from a set down in every round. Three quality wins vs Arthur Fils, Lloyd Harris, and Jiri Lehecka!

[Sonny Dearth / Virginian-Pilot @sdearthvp]

Around all this god-awful weather, this game is living up to the hype... I think it's pretty funny that I went to Varina and work for a place covering Maury, while my man @ZachJoachim went to Maury and works for a place that covers Varina.

THIRD ROUND BOUND.

@CULionsMTEN's Michael Zheng advances to the third round for a second-straight Grand Slam and will take on France's Arthur Gea on Saturday! 🌿🎾

[Sonny Dearth / Virginian-Pilot @sdearthvp]

The SMU game alone was worth it. What an epic! That was JMU's path to ESPN "Gameday" ... and there ended up being two more of 'em. I hated that he got hurt vs. UR.

[James Madison Athletics @JMUSports]

Our next JMU HOF inductee, Vad Lee of @JMUFootball, went 18-7 in two seasons while putting up unprecedented offensive numbers under center for the Dukes.

Mike Tomlin says stepping away from coaching made him realize how much leading an NFL organization had quietly cost him, and reveals he hasn't been to a family reunion since 1997

“I’ve enjoyed 2026, man. The free time, had an opportunity to really just focus on my wellness, getting into shape and things of that nature.”

“Man, when you lead a football team and football organization, sometimes you put yourself last. So it’s been good to kind of focus on some things like that and really just have time to be present with my family and friends.”

“I went to a family reunion a couple weeks ago. I hadn’t been to a family reunion since 1997. The family reunion is always the third week in July. Where have I been all of my adult life the third week in July? In a football camp. My family was laughing that I was there.”

What a catch there! Kaleb will probably tell you his throw was off target, but it didn't matter.
