We may have well over a week left in the 2024 Olympics, but we’ve already been served the most over-the-top celebration of the Summer Games courtesy of Poland’s Aleksandra Jarecka.
While the moment turned out to be unique and legitimately historic for Team Poland, Jarecka’s emotions were unlike anything we’ve seen thus far in Paris.

I think we’re well aware of how unbelievably tall San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama is, but it still blows everyone’s mind when he stands next to a short dude, and that happened this week at the Olympics when Wembanyama and the French took on Japan.

Outwardly, Mike Vrabel has been like a little bee at this Cleveland Browns training camp — buzzing over here to help the tight ends with their blocking, pollinating the linebacker group with some knowledge, and even flying down the field with quarterback Jameis Winston before practice.
The former Tennessee Titans head coach is seemingly all over, trying to help the Browns in whatever way he can. But he’s also helping to make himself a more formidable head coach candidate for next winter’s round of head coach interviews.
