Rory McIlroy has been the most outspoken player on the PGA Tour when it comes to LIV Golf. Even when rumors of the Saudi-backed circuit were just a whisper, anytime the topic of LIV came up in his presence he took it as an opportunity to go to bat for the PGA Tour.
Over the last year or so, and especially since the calendar flipped to 2023, McIlroy’s bashing of LIV Golf has slowed down. While he’s still very much on Team PGA Tour, even LIV CEO Greg Norman has noticed McIlroy develop a very small soft spot for the rival circuit.

College baseball coaches, or any baseball coach for that matter, should not touch an umpire. However, touching an umpire should not warrant an ejection when it has to do with de-escalation.
Unfortunately, an ump in Morgantown thinks otherwise and made it all about himself Sunday.
West Virginia, the No. 6-ranked school in the most recent poll, was hosting 35-win Texas Tech. The whole thing went down in the bottom of the eighth inning.
A debatable play at third base left the Mountaineers’ third base coach frustrated. He let the umpires hear his frustration and was tossed.
The NFL released the 2023-24 schedule last week. Of course, people focused on the matchups and primetime games. That makes the most sense, since those draw the most viewers. But one important — and often overlooked — detail in scheduling is rest advantage. And the New York Jets received plenty of that. The San Francisco 49ers … didn’t.
Warren Sharp, a contributor for the NFL on Fox, did a comprehensive breakdown of rest advantages — and disadvantages — for all 32 NFL teams.
The NFL schedule provides the New York Jets with several rest advantages throughout the 2023 season.
Hall of Fame guard Ray Allen found success at several stops: with the turn-of-the-century Bucks, on some of the last great SuperSonics teams and with the Celtics as they won their most recent NBA title.
However, Allen solidified his legacy as a deadly sharpshooter on the last two Big Three-era Heat teams. His three-pointer to tie Game 6 of the 2013 Finals ranks among the most iconic shots in basketball history, and helped now-Lakers forward LeBron James secure his second championship ring.
The “glancing” drama has a perfectly reasonable explanation.
Something curious was happening with Aaron Judge when the Yankees faced the Blue Jays on Tuesday night — he kept glancing over towards first base during his at-bat in the eighth inning. It was enough to pique the interest of the Jays’ broadcasters, who discussed the prevalence of the glancing. Then discussion went wild when Judge homered immediately following another glance.

Alternate title: How to watch the Victor Wembanyama lottery
The 2023 NBA Draft Lottery is tonight.
The suggested title of the 2023 Victor Wembanyama Lottery was, apparently, rejected by the league.
However, the 7’4 Wembanyama is considered the crown jewel of the incoming draft class. The 19-year-old has been described as a generational talent, and is coming off three seasons of playing professionally in France. Not since LeBron James has an incoming player created as much buzz as Wembanyama, and with good reason.
It did not take long for someone to scream racism after the Phoenix Suns decided to part ways with head coach Monty Williams after their postseason exit. Former NBA player Stephen Jackson gladly ran with the narrative that Williams’ skin color played a part in his firing.
Phoenix calling it quits with Williams was absolutely a surprise. He led the Suns to the NBA Finals in 2021 and punched back-to-back trips to the Western Conference semifinals over the last two seasons.
