Patriots head coach Bill Belichick was available to the media on Monday during the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix, but he didn’t seem too happy about some of the questions he received.
In particular, one reporter’s question about the possibility of bringing Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson to New England was shot down by Belichick, who bluntly indicated that wouldn’t be a topic of discussion.

“I hate what you two have done to sports television.”
That was Dan Le Batard to Stephen A. Smith last week when Smith appeared on Le Batard’s South Beach Sessions podcast.
The greatest golfer of all time and arguably the best baseball player walking the planet are joining forces to build a golf course together. Tiger Woods and Mike Trout are set to open Trout National – The Reserve in 2025.

PHOENIX — The news that Lamar Jackson has asked the Baltimore Ravens to be traded, according to Jackson himself, broke as coach John Harbaugh sat down with reporters at the NFL annual meeting on Monday.
And it wasn’t at more or less the same time Harbaugh sat a table surrounded by the media. Jackson started his tweet stream by saying: “A letter to my fans” at 7:48 a.m. That’s exactly the time Harbaugh sat down.
Brock Purdy, Trey Lance and Sam Darnold will compete for the starting role for the 2023 season.
One of the biggest questions heading into the 49ers’ 2023 season is who will be the team’s starting quarterback.
Trey Lance was promoted to the starting role last year, but he only played in two games before an ankle injury ended his season. Jimmy Garoppolo then stepped into the role, but he has since signed with the Raiders in free agency.
Rookie Brock Purdy was the star of the team at the end of the season as he led the 49ers to the NFC championship game.
“I can’t reveal the work I’ve put in, but I’ll let it be known on the night of the fight that I’m the best.”

“It’s going to be different,” says Adesanya.
Three out of the four teams headed to Houston are playing in their first Final Four, but only two can advance to compete for the NCAA tournament title.
Florida Atlantic vs. San Diego State
Either Florida Atlantic or San Diego State is going to play for the national championship Monday night. In men’s basketball. Not beach volleyball nor water polo. March has indeed been Madness.
They’re going crazy in La Jolla and Boca Raton, presumably. If the folks there can tear themselves away from the beach.
Neither school has been to a Final Four until now.
Terry spent this season as the team’s interim head coach.
Texas men’s basketball is expected to hire Rodney Terry as the team’s head coach, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports. The program is expected to make the move official this week.
Terry took over as the Longhorns’ interim head coach after Texas fired Chris Beard weeks after a domestic violence arrest. Terry has serves as a head coach at two prior schools, first at Fresno State for seven years then Texas-El Paso for three.
World Golf Championship events are now a thing of the past following the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play and, to be fair, it was a rather poetic final chapter with how things unfolded on Sunday with Sam Burns earning his fifth career win on the PGA Tour.
Rory McIlroy and his new putter had a strong outing at Austin CC, but his putting isn’t the biggest takeaway when looking back on his week filled with multiple nonsensical moments.
Lamar Jackson said Monday that he has requested a trade from the Ravens as the team “has not been interested in meeting my value” in contract talks.
