Friction within the Bills‘ locker room appeared to reach a head last month when star wideout Stefon Diggs missed the first day of mandatory minicamp, prompting coach Sean McDermott to say that he’s “very concerned” about the absence. But quarterback Josh Allen thinks the media’s coverage of the situation has overblown the ordeal.
“The media has blown this so far out of proportion,” Allen said on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast. “We are in minicamp.

We can’t fault you for potentially overlooking some of the movement that’s taken place in the NBA over the past week. Dozens of acquisitions have occurred, and billions of dollars worth of transactions have gone down. Neon names have requested trades and are still awaiting their fates. It’s a lot to process.
In light of that, we briefly touched on three of the most interesting under-the-radar moves that teams out West have made. It’s the sister piece to one we wrote earlier in the week on moves in the East.
Going all-in for Blazers star Damian Lillard seems like an easy decision for Miami, but there may be some long-term reasons not to do it.
This is wild.
A new addition to the Las Vegas skyline is one of the wildest things you’ve ever seen.
The Sphere at the Venetian Resort is a new multi-purpose arena and music venue that’s shaped, you guessed it, like a sphere. Built by the Madison Square Garden Company, it also features an exosphere made out of LED Boards, which allow it to project whatever the arena wants.
This week it’s lit up for the start of the NBA Summer League, and it looks like a giant basketball crashed into earth like a meteor. It’s not at all ominous.
The Tigers welcome backed Tarik Skubal to their starting rotation on Tuesday and the 26-year-old left-hander didn’t disappoint as he threw four scoreless (and hitless) innings against the Athletics.
Skubal, who had flexor tendon surgery last August, struck out six of the first 10 A’s batters that he faced in his season debut.
The Tigers ended up losing the game, 1–0, but Skubal’s dominant performance in his return to the mound should have the team and its fans excited about the future.

Senbere Teferi was in position to defend her Peachtree Road Race title on the 4th of July, but a wrong turn cost her $7,000. It was gut-wrenching to watch.
The Peachtree Road Race, is a 10-kilometer race that takes place each year in Atlanta. It is the world’s largest 10K race and has held that title since 1970.

Teferi, a middle and long distance runner from Ethiopia, has run events from the 1,500-meter up to a full 26.2-mile marathon. She has represented Africa and her home country in multiple championship events, including the Olympics.
Top contracts for every other position in football have seen at least a 74% increase since 2011. For running backs, that number is significantly lower.
The stars were out for the Independence Day party hosted by Michael Rubin—CEO of Fanatics and former minority owner of the 76ers and Devils—on Monday. Also, Celtics forward Grant Williams was there.
That was the first observation many made online when the Boston role player was photographed partying alongside the likes of Tom Brady, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kevin Durant, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Joel Embiid and so many other A-Listers.
Making the right choice can be the difference between winning and losing, both in the National Football League and in the world of fantasy football. Case in point. In the 1999 NFL Draft, Edgerrin James and Ricky Williams were the two unquestioned top running backs in the class. The Colts had a tough decision to make with the fourth overall pick, and they chose James. He went on to win Rookie of the Year, became a four-time Pro Bowler and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2020.
The Colts chose wisely.
