On any given week, sports broadcasters can go viral for delivering a lively call that captivates viewers worldwide. But, in the case of Mets announcer Gary Cohen, a soundbite during Friday’s 14–7 blowout loss to the Pirates made waves online for reasons that had nothing to do with the action.
Cohen, SNY’s Mets play-by-man since 2005, voiced his complete displeasure in the team’s latest poor outing in the midst of a rout at PNC Park.

In news that could rock the world of name, image and likeness, the Internal Revenue Service suggests that nonprofit NIL collectives offering tax deductions could be breaking the law.
According to a memo released from the office of the IRS Chief Counsel, donations made to nonprofit NIL collectives “are not tax exempt” because the benefits they provide college athletes are “not incidental both qualitatively and quantitatively to any exempt purpose.”
The 12-page memo was posted publicly Friday on the IRS website.

Jimmy Dunne, the PGA Tour board member who brokered the deal with the PIF, divulged unknown details that will make tour players smile.
Earlier this week, the PGA Tour announced a deal with the Saudi’s Public Investment Fund and the DP World Tour, to the shock and astonishment of many. Jay Monahan, the PGA Tour Commissioner, said afterwards that tour players that had remained loyal and not left for LIV Golf would be “rewarded.”
However, it was unclear if that was true and if so, what that meant.
Aaron Rodgers has yet to take a single snap in a real game for the New York Jets, but he’s already having himself a good time.
“The last six weeks have been about the most fun I’ve had in a while,” Rodgers said after the last day of OTAs, per ESPN.
That’s saying a lot. In the last few years of his time in Green Bay, Rodgers was known to skip OTAs.
It sounds like he was having such a good time that he stayed in town longer than expected. His initial plan was to rehab his calf — which kept him from participating in some on-field workouts early on — in California.
The latest news regarding James Harden’s pending free agency surprised NBA fans on Wednesday, after it was reported the veteran guard feels “torn” over the decision to return to the 76ers or re-join the Rockets, where he starred from 2012 to ’21.
However, as the speculation surrounding Harden’s future continues to ramp up, a potential third landing spot has attracted much attention following comments from multiple NBA insiders who believe the Suns could throw their hat in the ring.
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said he’s working to find a way to reward golfers that stuck with him over LIV Golf.
Dalvin Cook is available to sign with any team, at any time. That’s not likely to last very long. Unlike other free-agent options at running back, such as Ezekiel Elliott and Kareem Hunt, Cook has plenty of tread on the tires.

Rory McIlroy is showing that he knows how to focus and put the current task at hand to the forefront with a fantastic round Friday.
Rory McIlroy is looking to make history at Oakdale Golf & Country Club. He enters the weekend in contention at the RBC Canadian Open, looking to become the first man ever to win this event three straight years, per PGATour.com.
It’s impressive what he has done this week, especially considering all that has surrounded him.
Denver set the tone in Game 3 and is trying to take full control of the series by winning yet another one in South Florida.
Nuggets sharpshooter Michael Porter Jr. has been anything but his usual self in the first three games of the NBA Finals, averaging just 7.0 points per game while shooting 25.8% from the floor and 15.8% from three.
His shooting troubles are a far cry from what Denver fans are used to seeing out of Porter this postseason, as he’s averaged 13.3 points and 8.1 rebounds and has developed into a much better defender than he’s been in years past.
