J.J. Redick was introduced as the next head coach of the Lakers, and his performance at the introductory press conference in El Segundo, Calif. was fit for a podcaster.
Redick’s introduction Monday was far from regal. At the presser, Redick dropped a pair of F-bombs and responded to the slew of criticism he’s received since drawing interest from the Lakers with an uncanny background to boast. A lack of coaching experience has been the crux of criticism aimed at Redick.

There’s nothing quite like heading to the ol’ ballpark and snagging a foul ball. But making an amazing snag on that foul ball, especially when it’s caught on TV, is one of the best possible outcomes.
That’s exactly what happened to a Baltimore Orioles fan who was inexplicably standing by himself way out in the right field stands.
Cleveland Guardians hitter Josh Naylor clubbed a foul ball that looked headed for the concourse at Oriole Park.
But there was one lone gentleman standing out there.
Hardball heat is nothing new for Texas A&M and Tennessee as they will meet one final time for a title.
It was a gathering of Tennessee legends Monday for the Vols’ last chance at winning the College World Series Final, on the heels of winning a red-hot Game 2 on Sunday to extend the series.
Among the Vols faithful in attendance was a quartet of Tennessee gents — famed alum Peyton Manning, country star Morgan Wallen, Vols hoops coach Rick Barnes and football coach Josh Heupel — seated together at Charles Schwab Field.
Fireworks went off as Manning and Wallen exchanged a bro-hug, celebrating Christian Moore’s leadoff home run to put the Vols up, 1-0, early.
Stephen A. Smith has a message for white folks: shut up and listen.
Last week, Smith shamed the Lakers for hiring JJ Redick and cited sources saying black coaches were “upset” that LeBron James started a podcast with a white co-host while his black head coach, Darvin Ham, was perceived to be on the hot seat.
Smith addressed criticism of his report Monday:
“Black coaches called a black commentator to complain about a black superstar doing a podcast while his black head coach was on the hot seat before he ultimately lost the damn job,” Smith said.
Under JJ Redick, are the Lakers planning to draft a center to pair with Anthony Davis, or trade the pick? Also, is Utah aiming for a big move with its draft capital?
Soccer fever has gripped the United States! Well, kind of. At least as much as non-World Cup soccer can grip the country. The US Men’s National Team began its Copa América run Sunday with a 2-0 win over Bolivia.
The USMNT is ranked much higher internationally than Bolivia, so this was not an unexpected result. US soccer star Christian Pulisic scored a goal and added an assist in what was a dominating performance.
Pulisic’s tally came less than two-and-a-half minutes into the contest. The US rode that goal to an easy victory.
