Despite the tabloid headlines swirling around Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini, the NFL is adopting a strictly hand-off approach when it comes to teams making fun of each other during Thursday night’s schedule release.
The annual schedule release is the one day of the year when NFL teams are unofficially allowed to mock each other. With TMZ Sports and the New York Post still on the warpath, you’d think the league would step in to try to declare the Vrabel scandal off-limits. Right?
Wrong. The NFL is taking the opposite approach, sources tell Front Office Sports.
Basketball legend Lisa Leslie announced on Thursday that she will be immortalized outside of Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles with a statue, which will be unveiled before the Sparks’ Sept. 20 game against the Portland Fire.
During an appearance on “Good Morning America,” Leslie told host Robin Roberts that she is humbled by the honor and that she was happy she was able to continue her basketball career in Los Angeles after playing four years at USC.
The 2026 NFL schedule will be released Thursday night, where we’ll learn when each of the 32 teams will play their previously-determined opponents, including the Chicago Bears.
Looking ahead to the 2026 season, the Bears have the most difficult strength of schedule in the NFL (based on last year’s results). Their opponents had a win-loss percentage of .550 (which is actually easier than last year’s .567) and win-loss record of 158-129-2. Chicago will play eight games against playoff teams from last season and 11 games against teams that had a .500+ win percentage.
Did Jarrett Allen trip Ausar Thompson at the end of Wednesday night’s Game 5 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Detroit Pistons?
I’m inclined to side with veteran referee Tony Brothers on this one, who explained after the game why there was no call on the play which could’ve sent Thompson to the free throw line to shoot game-winning free throws at the end of regulation.
“During live play, both players were going for the ball and there was incidental contact with the legs with no player having possession of the ball,” Brothers explained in the pool report.
Adam Silver says the NBA has power beyond just fines to crack down on tanking.
In February, the league fined the Pacers and Jazz six figures each for resting key players—in Utah’s case, in the fourth quarter of a close game.
Silver went on Stephen A. Smith’s radio show Wednesday and said he could make even more aggressive interventions.
“If we do see that type of behavior where there’s a sense that teams aren’t going all out to win, that we can actually take away draft lottery balls, we can change the order of the draft,” Silver said.
Jason Collins was an icon, not simply because of his ability on the court, but for his profound bravery off it. Collins became the first active player in a major four sport to come out of the closet, announcing that he was gay in 2013. It may have been the twilight of his career, but he became a north star for other athletes simply by continuing to play team basketball while being out in the open.
Collins’ family announced on Tuesday that he had died at home at the age of 47, taken far too soon by stage-4 glioblastoma, a relatively common, but aggressive form of brain cancer.
Few things have troubled Keyshawn Davis in professional boxing quite like Norfolk and Nahir Albright.
Davis and Albright rematch on Saturday at the Scope Arena in Davis’ hometown of Norfolk, Virginia, in the headliner of Top Rank’s first-ever card on DAZN. While a second meeting between the pair wasn’t sitting on any boxing fan’s wishlist, for Davis, it represents the perfect opportunity for a redemption story centered around his two biggest scandals.
Malik Nabers underwent a second procedure on his right knee earlier this offseason and the Giants remain hopeful the wide receiver will be ready for Week 1, a source confirmed to ESPN.
Despite back-to-back Stanley Cup Final appearances in 2024 and 2025 and with an extension that had not yet begun, Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch has been fired, a source confirmed to ESPN.
