Comedian Nikki Glaser took the stage at The ESPYs on Thursday night (that’s how you know it’s a big deal, by the way; it airs on a Thursday) and while she was up there she told a joke about Connor McDavid that didn’t seem to sit too well with his Edmonton Oilers teammate Evander Kane.
To me, the ESPYs are like any other award show. I hear that they’re happening the day of and then I say, “Oh yeah, that’s tonight,” and then go about my day as I normally would.
The ESPYs are especially goofy because the awards make very little sense.

Justin Thomas had things going for him during the opening round of the Genesis Scottish Open, but he could not keep it going.
Justin Thomas had everything going for him on Thursday. He drained plenty of putts, hit numerous approach shots inside six feet, and held the lead on the PGA Tour for the first time in over two years.
Then he came crashing back down to Earth on Friday.
Fresh off her U.S.
Enes Kanter Freedom went on “Don’t @ Me with Dan Dakich” on Friday to discuss why Team USA elected to keep Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown off its roster…twice.
Of all the roster moves Team USA made, this was the most confusing. Brown won both the Eastern Conference Finals and NBA Finals MVP awards, and averaged over 24 PPG in the regular season. And yet, even after Kawhi Leonard removed himself from the team, Brown still didn’t get a spot.
Freedom thinks that Nike, one of the biggest sponsors for America’s Olympic teams, had something to do with this decision.
Serena Williams was the host of last night’s ESPYs award show, and she did a fairly good job all things considered. But during her initial monologue, the 23-time Grand Slam champion used a joke about Caitlin Clark to serve up some racism.
During her opening remarks, Williams joked about everything from Drake’s ongoing beef with Kendrick Lamar to Shohei Ohtani losing millions in his interpreter’s gambling scandal. Additionally, she poked fun at the Indiana Fever guard, but it took an unnecessary racial turn.
Patrick Mahomes Sr. cannot seem to keep himself out of trouble.
The father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was pulled over in Tyler, Texas, last month and cited for driving with an invalid license. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Pat Sr. was also issued a warning for disregarding traffic signs.
The citation comes just five months after the elder Mahomes was arrested and charged with a DWI in the same city.
Previous reports indicated that the Feb. 3 incident was Pat Sr.’s third DUI/DWI.

Similar to the U.S. Open, young Swedish phenom Ludvig Åberg holds the solo lead at the Genesis Scottish Open.
Ludvig Åberg has plenty of reason to smile at the Genesis Scottish Open.
For the second consecutive day, the young Swede signed for a 6-under 64 and has a one-shot lead over Frenchman Antoine Rozner at 12-under-par. Åberg did not make a single bogey on Friday, instead holing six birdies to seize control of the championship at the midway point.
