Patrick Mahomes sent NFL fans into a frenzy Thursday night after delivering an epic response to Ja’Marr Chase during the Chiefs’ private ring ceremony to commemorate their Super Bowl LIV victory over the Eagles.
Earlier this week, Chase decided to shake the table after the Bengals receiver picked his quarterback and friend Joe Burrow as the NFL’s best QB. The star wideout then followed his pick by saying “Pat Who?” when asked why he didn’t agree with Burrow naming the reigning NFL and Super Bowl MVP as the league’s top dog.

It’s safe to say that Phil Mickelson has lost some fans over the past year or so after bolting for LIV Golf and his questionable comments about the whole situation. While that may be the case, Lefty is still beloved by many and has plenty of support each time he tees it up.
Someone who is very firmly not a member of Team Mickelson stood out on Thursday at the U.S. Open, however.

Andy Reid earned some serious brownie points with his wife when explaining why he doesn’t wear a Super Bowl ring.
The Chiefs celebrated a ring ceremony for the team Thursday after winning a second ring under Reid’s leadership, but he didn’t wear either of his two rings.
Why not? His answer was simple. His wedding ring for his wife Tammy is his the only ring that he’s interested in having on his fingers.

Dustin Johnson came out red hot on Thursday at the 123rd U.S. Open. He posted a 64 and is only two shots off the lead entering Friday.
Dustin Johnson didn’t lay eyes on Los Angeles Country Club until the Monday before the 123rd U.S. Open. That didn’t stop him from shooting a 64 to sit T3 on the leaderboard. The unusually low scoring shocked everyone, but Johnson didn’t mind how L.A. Country Club played in the first round.
Afterwards, he met with media to answer questions and revealed a conclusive reason for the history made Thursday.

Henderson’s red-hot June continued on Thursday
Thursday was getaway day in Baltimore, as the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles met in the early afternoon for the rubber game of their three game series.

What can Josh Jacobs do for an encore to his career year in 2022? Jacobs is an interesting case.
Every time the United State Men’s National Team takes the pitch against Mexico things turn up a notch, but tensions hit a fever pitch during Thursday night’s CONCACAF Nations League semifinals. The USMNT routed its rival 3-0, but that was far from the story of the night.
The match featured four red cards, two players from each side being ejected, homophobic chants from Mexican supporters, and an early whistle to end the match with time remaining.
Homophobic chants were reportedly heard throughout the contest, which was being held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Rob Manfred gave so many stupid quotes it’s hard to pick the worst one
I’m not sure there’s any other commissioner of the major four American sports who is more universally hated by the fans of their sport more than Major League Baseball’s Rob Manfred. Sure, you can make the argument that he’s just a meat shield for the MLB owners, but he continuously misses the mark when it comes to public statements and just generally being a petty person.
Welcome to 32 teams in 32 days. To get us through the offseason, we’ll be taking a closer look at every team in the league, in order of projected 2023 win totals. Up next: the Raiders.
It’s been a long, tough stretch for the Raiders.
Since 2002, the Raiders have reached the playoffs twice and failed to win a single postseason game. In recent years, Las Vegas suffered through the Jon Gruden era, which ended when Gruden resigned in disgrace following the surfacing of homophobic emails.
