A Mifflin Street Party on Saturday led to the arrest of over 40 people, including Wisconsin Badgers wide receiver Markus Allen. The former four-star prospect was reportedly arrested for possessing a firearm while intoxicated at the party in Madison.
Allen was booked at Dane County Jail along with two other attendees at the UW-Madison block party. One of the three people arrested at the gathering possessed a “stolen gun in a backpack,” according to Channel 3000’s report. Allen has not been charged with a crime and was reportedly released after 45 minutes in detainment.

Klay Thompson, who is no stranger to heroic outings from his longtime teammate, made a bold declaration after Curry’s big night. Speaking to reporters, Thompson dubbed the Game 7 victory as “The Steph Curry Game.”

Aaron Rodgers is living the New York life to the fullest in his first week. The New York Jets acquired the quarterback from the Green Bay Packers on Monday. The team introduced him to the media on Tuesday.
By Saturday, Rodgers was already supporting the other teams in the Big Apple. The 39-year-old quarterback attended the New York Rangers Game 6 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night.
Predictably, the New York crowd went nuts for their new signal-caller.

Stephen Curry was absolutely feeling himself during his historic Game 7 performance against the Kings on Sunday. After dropping a record-setting 50 points, the Warriors’ superstar took a jab at Sacramento’s signature “Light the Beam” rally call.

When Phillies star Bryce Harper underwent Tommy John surgery in late November, he was expected to be able to return by around the All-Star break. Now, it appears he’s on the verge of beating those projections by a considerable margin.
Harper is set to be evaluated by a doctor in Los Angeles on Monday, and, if he’s cleared, is expected to be in Philadelphia’s lineup on Tuesday as the designated hitter against the Dodgers.
