Enjoy this clip of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc just waiting for someone to send a question his way after the Azerbaijan GP
The main theme of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix mirrored the main theme of the first three races of the season: Red Bull dominance. Sergio Pérez and Max Verstappen finished 1-2 in Baku, the second time this season that the Bulls locked out the front row, and the fourth win in four races for the team.

The Pittsburgh Steelers QB was at Luke Combs’ Saturday concert in Pittsburgh, and somehow found himself on stage with the country music star.
He did the only thing you can do when you find yourself on stage during a country music concert. He grabbed a beer, ripped it and then spiked the can as if he’d just put a touchdown up on the board.

Los Angeles Chargers coach Brandon Staley made a very bold claim after the team took three TCU players in the draft.
Staley and the Chargers loaded up on TCU talent after drafting WR Quentin Johnston in the first round, WR Derius Davis in the fourth and Heisman finalist QB Max Duggan in the seventh.

The Bruins, who broke the NHL’s record for most wins and points in a single regular season this year, were upset by the Panthers in the first round of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs on Sunday.
It was a disappointing end to a season brimming with promise, and the loss prompted an eyebrow-raising call from play-by-play commentator Jack Edwards, who compared Boston’s playoffs defeat to the Hindenburg disaster.

The Bruins crashed out of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs on Sunday night, stunned in overtime of Game 7 by the Panthers, 4–3.
