This offseason, the Celtics made a crucial decision for their future, signing Jaylen Brown to a five-year, $304 million extension for the richest deal in NBA history. Boston has fully committed to Brown and Jayson Tatum, who has three years left on his five-year max contract.
While some fans questioned whether the team was right in extending Brown, Boston’s ownership seemed to have no doubt that it was the right move. Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck told The Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach that Tatum and Brown are the perfect duo to lead the team.

Here are all the scheduled cards the UFC will be staging.
Arkansas did not find itself ranked in the Top 25 of the 2023 college football coaches poll. The Razorbacks received votes, but didn’t make the cut.
Georgia Still No. 1 In Coaches’ Preseason Poll; Alabama Too High At No. 3? LSU Is No. 5
However, there is a real opportunity for the Hogs to make some noise this fall. Sam Pittman is in his fourth year as head coach and returns a vicious 1-2 punch in the backfield.
Arkansas’ starting quarterback and running back are both tall and combine to weigh nearly 500 pounds.
Georgia is favored to become the first college football team to win three consecutive national championships since Minnesota in 1934, ’35 and ’36, according to the USA TODAY Coaches preseason poll released on Monday afternoon.
The Bulldogs received 61 of a possible 66 first-place votes in the poll of college football coaches. Georgia finished the 2022-23 season at 15-0 with a 65-7 win over TCU in the College Football Playoff national championship game Jan. 9.
Georgia lost much of its 2022 team, but then again, it lost a lot of its 2021 team after it won that national championship.
Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe helped lead the USWNT to back-to-back Women’s World Cups, but the past is the past, and today’s American squad suffered its earliest World Cup exit in team history after its Round of 16 loss to Sweden.
Bill Simmons believes that living in the past may have ultimately cost the team this time around, which is a tough point to argue against when even looking at the most simple of numbers.
One of the most interesting storylines in college football this fall revolves around Bobby Petrino and Jimbo Fisher at Texas A&M. The sixth-year head coach and his new offensive coordinator are both big personalities who want to be in control.
Fisher hired Petrino in January after the Aggies offense floundered for much of the 2022 season. The 62-year-old most recently served as the head coach at Missouri State after stints at Louisville, Western Kentucky and Arkansas, in addition to a year with the Falcons.

The future of Vlatko Andonovski is one of many questions facing the USWNT
The U.S. Women’s National Team experienced a disappointing run at the Women’s World Cup, advancing as the runners-up out of their group and eventually losing in the Round of 16 to Sweden. That stands as their worst finish in a Women’s World Cup, and has led to questions about where the program goes from here.
So, let’s try and answer those, as the USWNT picks up the pieces from an underwhelming performance Down Under.
Blue Jays rookie Davis Schneider isn’t related to Toronto manager John Schneider, but it turns out that there is a coincidental connection between the two.
Davis Schneider made his MLB debut on Friday in Boston, the culmination of seven seasons of hard work after he was selected in the 28th round of the 2017 draft. Schneider plodded away for years in the low levels of the minors, not even advancing to Double A until his sixth season as a pro.

The English forward lost her cool and put herself at the center of the Women’s World Cup’s most infamous moment.
England forward Lauren James has come under fire for stepping on Nigerian forward Michelle Alozie during the Lionesses Round of 16 victory over Nigeria.
James was given a red card and sent off from the match due to the stomp, which you can see happen at around the 2:38 mark.

Brewers rookie reliever Abner Uribe already is making a name for himself among baseball fans despite having thrown just 10 2/3 innings at the MLB level.
During a relief appearance on Sunday, Uribe showcased some devastating movement on his sinker, striking out the Pirates’ Jack Suwinski on a pitch that quite frankly wasn’t even fair.
Suwinski didn’t stand a chance against the 99-mph sinker from Uribe, which broke away from the plate in jaw-dropping fashion.
