Adam Wainwright: Confirmed, good guy. Confirmed, loves dogs.
In an amusing X post, the recently retired St. Louis Cardinals pitcher gave a behind-the-scenes look into how a Major Leaguer announces he’s done with the sport that he spent over 20 years playing day in and day out.
“Retired? Absolutely, for all the best reasons,” the World Series pitcher tweeted along with a screengrab of his “MLB – Notice of Disposition” filed paperwork.
“This letter serves as my official notification to the ST.

All eyes will be on Victor Wembanyama when the Spurs and Suns meet for the first of four times this season on Halloween night.
The heralded rookie has already put together quite the highlight reel during his first week in the league and he played a key role in San Antonio’s lone win over the weekend. Phoenix has been shorthanded to start the season as Devin Booker (foot) and Bradley Beal (back) have combined to play in one of the team’s three games so far. Booker is a game-time decision and Beal is out yet again.
What an original costume!
Halloween 2023 was destined to be littered with Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift costumes by the least-creative couple you know who wants to be cute without realizing they picked something so tired.
So here’s Mitt and Ann Romney dressed like Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

This is how someone holds a football when they’ve never held a football in their life before.
A year ago, Louisville posted its worst winning percentage in men’s basketball since a 2-14 campaign in 1941. It seemed that the 4-28 Cardinals had nowhere to go but up in 2024.
That illusion was shattered on Monday when Louisville played Division II Kentucky Wesleyan in an exhibition—and lost 71-68.
The loss itself has alarm bells going off throughout Jefferson County—a similar defeat, to D-II Lenoir-Rhyne, anticipated the Cardinals’ free fall last year—but coach Kenny Payne’s postgame comments raised even more questions.
Bettors witnessed favorites dominating the slate with a 13-3 straight-up (SU) mark, while posting a lucrative 9-5-2 against the spread (ATS) record in Week 8 of the NFL.
Chiefs fans were upset that Taylor Swift did not attend the game in Denver. In games with Swift in attendance, Kansas City is 4-0, outscoring opponents 114-55.
The Chiefs were 7-point road favorites but saw their six-game winning streak snapped and in the process Patrick Mahomes suffered his first loss (12-1) against the Broncos.
Jim Harbaugh might not be a dead man walking just yet!
The Michigan coach and his program are facing serious problems amid allegations the Wolverines ran a massive sign stealing operation with CIA level precision strikes being carried out all over the country. It’s more entertaining than any spy movie we’ve seen in years.
There was a report from the weekend that Michigan had pulled an extension off the table that would have made Harbaugh the highest-paid coach in the Big Ten.
Over the summer, the NHL tried to crack down on head coaches yelling at officials and it would appear that their tactics didn’t work on Anaheim Ducks head coach Greg Cronin.
Although, when you see why he was mad, there’s no video montage of coaches yelling at officials powerful enough to make anyone hold their tongue.
The Ducks were in Pittsburgh on Monday night to cap off a 4-game road trip out east. It had gone extremely well through the first three games for the team, which saw them take impressive wins against the Columbus Blue Jackets, Boston Bruins, and Philadelphia Flyers.
The list of NBA players to log four straight top-three Most Valuable Player finishes is a who’s who of all-time greats … and James Harden, whose career has taken an odd turn.
With the trade deadline set to expire at 4 p.m. ET, a few contenders are calling about one of the top players on the market. ESPN’s Ed Werder reports that the Bills and 49ers have discussed potentially trading for Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson.
Johnson reportedly requested a trade from Chicago ahead of the deadline, as the two sides have failed to find common ground on an extension. The 24-year-old is currently in the final year of his deal and set to hit free agency at the end of the season.
The Commanders are trading defensive end Montez Sweat to the Bears for a 2024 second-round draft pick, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Sweat is in the last year of his contract.
