The Baltimore Orioles have pissed off Paige Spiranac with their spineless treatment of announcer Kevin Brown, which means we now have a problem.
I was OK with everything up until now. But once you poke the Pageviews bear and stir her up, you have my attention. Unfortunately for the Orioles, Paige Spiranac effectively runs the show around here, which means they are now Enemy No. 1 moving forward and will be treated as such.
Sorry, Birds.
“I swear the people in charge try to make commentating as boring as possible,” she tweeted Tuesday.

Deion Sanders made Colorado relevant in a matter of months days hours. A team that won just one game last season became an instant high-interest college football program as soon as Coach Prime took the job.

Blue Jays reliever Chad Green was removed from a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday night after he was inadvertently hit in the head on a throw down to second base by catcher Tyler Heineman.
Green, who was nearing his debut with the Blue Jays following Tommy John surgery last year, signed a two-year contract with Toronto this offseason. The 32-year-old pitcher gave up one hit on 11 pitches in two-thirds of an inning before leaving the game. He’s thrown six and two-thirds innings during his rehab assignment and has yet to surrender a run.
The post-playing career of longtime NBA guard Jeff Teague has been nothing short of spectacular if you’ve happened to catch any of his podcast/show appearances. The former first-round draft pick who played for five teams in his career, including lengthy stints with the Hawks and Timberwolves, has been an open book, revealing every hilarious story from his playing days.
Most recently, Teague spoke about two young guards in Kings star De’Aaron Fox and Cavaliers playmaker Darius Garland, joking that they made him “retire.
1. With analyst Todd Blackledge now at NBC as part of its new Big Ten package, ESPN had a void to fill with its No. 2 college football booth.
Sports Illustrated has learned that Greg McElroy has been promoted to fill Blackledge’s spot and will work alongside play-by-play man Sean McDonough and sideline reporter Molly McGrath this season on Saturday Night Primetime.

The Atlanta Hawks wing dazzled with his versatile shooting prowess as a rookie, but that’s not the only intriguing parts of his game.
The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported Tuesday morning that the Atlanta Hawks remain the foremost suitor for the Toronto Raptors’ forward Pascal Siakam, offering a package built upon De’Andre Hunter, AJ Griffin and draft capital.
Siakam is very good. He’s a two-time All-Star and All-NBA honoree who’s proven to contribute to winning at the highest level and yet to turn 30.
“I think the players that committed to us and came here, they want to play Power 5 football, and that is what our intention is with this university,” Stanford coach Troy Taylor said Tuesday. “I can’t imagine anything else.
Former NBA all-star Gilbert Arenas discussed LeBron James and his high level of play on his Gil’s Arena show, and brought up an interesting point about the Lakers star’s longevity that is not often considered.
Could James’s high level of play, that is unprecedented in his late 30s, be putting pressure on players across the league?
“It just puts so much pressure on people,” Arenas said. “The fact that he’s 39, doing what he’s doing, makes 30 seem like you’re a rookie.
Commanders coach Ron Rivera revisited his Tuesday comments on Wednesday morning when discussing complaints from players regarding new offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy.
“I realized my comments yesterday took on a different life than I intended,” Rivera said. “And that’s on me for not being as clear as I needed to be. I’ll own that.”
Rivera went on to explain that a lot of players on offense have been “uncomfortable” and there’s “been a lot of change” but said that the team has improved as a result.

Give Julio Rodriguez an Oscar for his coy reaction to robbing a home run against the Padres.
One of the coolest things to do in a baseball game is robbing a surefire home run. The batter thinking that they can do the homer trot only for a centerfielder who was blessed by God with insane athleticism to jump up and snag the ball out of the air as you think you have a no doubt homer. It’s one of the biggest reversals of fortune in sports, which makes it hilarious.
