The collapse of the Pac-12 Conference was awe inspiring in its speed and efficiency.
For some time after the USC Trojans and UCLA Bruins announced they were bolting for the Big Ten, there were hopes that the remaining schools could stick together and potentially add new institutions. But in just a matter of weeks in July, six of the remaining 10 schools found new conference homes.

Aaron Rodgers may be enjoying the spotlight as the great unifier of the New York Jets this offseason, but the guy has an absolutely ruthless sense of humor.
On Tuesday’s episode of Hard Knocks, Rodgers appeared on screen during a joint practice with the Carolina Panthers. Rodgers threw savage jabs at his buddy and former Packers O-Line coach, James Campen, now part of the Panthers personnel.

In his first plate appearance against the Rangers on Wednesday, Ohtani clobbered a high fastball from Jon Gray well over the fence in center field, extending his American League home run lead with his 42nd blast of the season. In doing so, he swung so hard that his helmet fell off his head—and, rather than pick it up, he began his home run trot without it.
Just look at that lettuce flowing in the breeze.
A judge in Los Angeles County granted Cincinnati Bengals wideout Ja’Marr Chase with a temporary restraining order against a woman he had a one-night stand with. Chase accuses the woman of harassing him with crazed allegations over the past two years.
On Tuesday, Chase filed his request for a temporary restraining order against Ambar Hunter, an Instagram model that had a one-night stand with Chase in 2021.
Fights tend to overshadow joint scrimmages, and there was another one Wednesday that involved Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby and Rams running back Cam Akers. But there was a lot more to see during the first of two joint scrimmages between the two NFL teams.
For this story, let’s focus on four observations about the Rams (Here’s more about what we saw from the Raiders on Wednesday).
O.K., let’s get to it.
1) I was hoping to see how Aaron Donald and his many inexperienced defensive teammates would play versus the Raiders’ starting offense, but Donald received a rest day.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan was asked about the criticism toward Lance on Wednesday, and admitted Lance is used to hearing those sort of comments based on the position he’s in.
“It just goes with the territory,” Shanahan said, via NBC Sports. “It goes with it for quarterbacks.
