Former Cardinals general manager Steve Keim appeared on Fox’s The Herd and shared a funny anecdote with Colin Cowherd about a pre-draft dinner in 2019 with Nick Bosa. 
Keim and former head coach Kliff Kingsbury met with Bosa in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. as Arizona held the No. 1 overall pick in the draft that year. During his appearance, Keim shared that the star defensive end out of Ohio State warned them both that if he drafted Kyler Murray he would “haunt” them.

The Ohio State quarterback reportedly struggled with his pre-draft S2 Cognition testing.

Perfect games are tough to come by — arguably the most difficult thing to accomplish in sports — and Chicago Cubs pitcher Drew Smyly appeared to be on his way to one Friday afternoon against the Dodgers.
Well… he was until he had a very unfortunate run-in with his own batterymate.
It happened with the end in sight, at the top of the eighth inning with no outs and Dodgers outfielder David Peralta at the plate and the Cubs annihilating them 13-0. He got a piece of the 0-1 offering and it dribbled down the third base line.
Sounds like a recipe for a relatively out.

The NBA suspended Draymond Green for Game 3 of the Kings–Warriors series on Thursday night, after the forward stomped on Domantas Sabonis and got into it with the Kings crowd in Game 2. Therefore, Green missed Golden State’s big 114–97 win during his second-ever postseason suspension.
On Friday, for the first time, Green spoke publicly about his suspension, which in part had to do with the fact that he was suspended previously.

Sixers coach Doc Rivers says the NBA needs to do something about teams trying to goad star players into retaliatory actions during games.

There has never been a dumber way for a perfect game to end.
The Chicago Cubs have been around since 1903. Wrigley Field opened in 1914. Somehow, no Cubs player has ever thrown a perfect game, and there has never been a perfect game at Wrigley Field.
Both of those streaks were almost broken on Friday afternoon, but a perfect game bid by Cubs starter Drew Smyly was lost on just about the silliest play possible. Smyly took a perfect game into the top of the eighth inning against the mighty Los Angeles Dodgers with the North Siders holding a 13-0 lead.

Conversations with league sources and a copy of the NFL gambling policy obtained by Yahoo Sports shed more light on Friday’s handful of suspensions.

Qualifying for the Indianapolis 500 just got a bit more interesting with the news that a 34th team will be trying to earn a spot on the grid.
That means one team will not qualify for the greatest spectacle in racing.
This is fantastic news for fans, and for one team that fails to make it onto the grid… it will be significantly less fantastic.
That 34th team will be Abel Motorsports which will be making its NTT IndyCar Series debut with the No. 50 Chevrolet.

The New Yorker will play postseason hoops for the first time where he once cheered on the home team.

Brunson and Tom Thibodeau might seem like the unlikeliest of pairings. History suggests otherwise.
