It wouldn’t be the Super Bowl without at least one person going full-Rodney Dangerfield and saying they don’t get the respect they deserve.
This year, Eagles linebacker Hasson Reddick is that one person.
“No, I don’t feel I get enough respect as a pass rusher,” Reddick said. “But, I mean, everybody’s entitled to their own opinion at the end of the day. The stats, the numbers, the things that are important — they don’t lie. It’s all in front of everybody’s face. So if people want to [turn] a blind eye to it, go ahead. It is what it is.
The forward is set to become the NBA’s all-time scoring leader.
LeBron James is 36 points away from breaking the NBA’s all-time scoring record, a record that will further cement his place in the league’s history.
The Lakers forward has made plenty of big shots in his career en route to four NBA championships. He’s hit playoff buzzer-beaters and multiple huge shots in the NBA Finals. However, when asked to name the biggest shot of his career, James said it was a jump shot in Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals vs.

The Magic are playing good ball behind the unique talents of Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.
Franz Wagner is absolutely fearless. The 21-year-old German wing kept coming at MVP candidate and former Defensive Player of the Year finalist Joel Embiid at the rim. Embiid won the battle almost every time, but that never deterred Wagner.
And Embiid came away impressed. The pair had a friendly exchange after Embiid got another stop with time expiring as the Sixers were able to salvage a split with the plucky Magic.
John DeFilippo is eager to lead the New Orleans Breakers in his first opportunity as a pro football head coach.
The 49ers are hiring Steve Wilks as their new defensive coordinator, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
LIV Golf could be the most unique startup in sports history given that it’s funded by the Saudi Arabia Public Investment fund. While the Saudi’s bottomless pockets bankrolling the golf league make it different than anything we’ve seen before, LIV Golf still struggled in one area all startups struggle in: making money.
According to federal court documents obtained by ESPN, LIV Golf’s revenue since its launch a year ago has been “virtually zero.” Not only that, but LIV Golf’s attorneys are claiming the PGA Tour, and its motion to delay the ongoing antitrust lawsuit, are to blame.

10 defensive players have won Super Bowl MVP. Haason Reddick can make it 11.
Ten defensive players have secured Super Bowl MVP honors.
Haason Reddick could join that list this weekend.
Signed by the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason, Reddick has put together a career season, as his 16 sacks represent a career-high mark. The pass rusher also forced five fumbles this year, also a career-best.
With Reddick in the mix, the Eagles have been one of the best pass-rushing defenses in the NFL this year, particularly when rushing four or fewer upfront.
San Francisco has found its replacement for DeMeco Ryans, who left for Houston earlier in the offseason.
The 49ers plan to hire former Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks as the team’s defensive coordinator, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport.
Wilks, who began the 2022 season as Carolina’s passing game coordinator and secondary coach, impressed when he took over as head coach following Matt Rhule’s firing five games into the year.
We may never know for sure until the book comes out.
And if that is made into a movie, it cannot be worse than “Home Team.” That was the 2022 Netflix film inspired by former New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton’s life during his 2012 NFL suspension for letting his players put bounties on opposing players from 2009-11.
And it may depend on who writes the book – Ian Rapoport of NFL Network or Adam Schefter of ESPN. Or maybe Payton himself. But it surely looks like Payton was not the Denver Broncos’ first choice to be their new head coach last week.
