Multiple drivers found themselves sliding across the track during Friday’s first practice in Miami
Coming into the second Miami Grand Prix, the grip on the track was one of the storylines to watch this Formula 1 weekend.
Following the conclusion of the first practice session, that remains an item to watch.
Friday’s first practice session found multiple examples of drivers struggling with grip on the track, including both Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez of Red Bull along with Charles Leclerc of Ferrari.

Cejudo was a two-division champ when he walked away from the UFC. As he returns three years later at UFC 288 (Saturday on ESPN+ PPV), he’s back at it once again with even bigger aspirations.

Has the postseason really started until two politicians make some kind of low-stakes bet over a series? If that’s what you’re waiting on, then the Stanley Cup Playoffs have officially begun thanks to a bet between Senators Ted Cruz and Maria Cantwell.
Cruz reached out to Cantwell, a Democratic senator from Washington with an offer to liven up the Seattle Kraken-Dallas Stars second-round playoff series.

.@SenatorCantwell, looks like @SeattleKraken had a good first game. But I’m confident @DallasStars win this playoff series.

A high school football ref in Tennessee is suing a Nashville high school football coach for allegedly clotheslining him during a game in August 2022. There is video of the incident, and it’s quite something.
Referee Trae Cardwell was refereeing a game between Hunters Lane and Maplewood. While running down Hunters Lane’s sideline following a Maplewood punt, Cardwell took a spill after running past coach William Thomas.
In the video you can see Thomas with his back turned toward the referee before extending his arm holding what looks to be a play sheet.

The Celtics travel to the city of brotherly love to face the Sixers in Game 3 with the series tied at one, and the Suns look to avoid going down 3-0 to the Nuggets.

The rivalry between the Cowboys and Eagles is one of the oldest and strongest in the NFL. Every year, the two games that Dallas and Philadelphia play means more than just any two regular season games, especially to the fans who have been exposed to this conflict for their entire lives..
However, one member of the Eagles doesn’t have much interest in the rivalry. On Twitter, when A.J. Brown said to not compare him to Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, he said it’s partially because he doesn’t care about the rivalry, not necessarily because he has any beef with Lamb in particular.

Fox Sports college football analyst Urban Meyer spoke with Tim May of On3 about the upcoming season, and the former Ohio State, Florida and Utah coach gave a surprising pick for the best roster in the sport.
Could it be back-to-back national champion Georgia? Alabama? Ohio State?
How about Texas?  
“I think Texas,” Meyer began. “You didn’t mention them, but don’t sleep on Texas this year. I was talking to [On3 recruiting analyst] Mark Pantoni, and I was talking to the recruiting director at Ohio State.

Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden received some criticism from media and fans for partying in Las Vegas during the team’s first-round playoff series against the Nets. 
Harden, who has played well throughout the playoffs for Philadelphia, largely brushed off the criticism.
In a recent story with Steve Bulpett of Heavy, 76ers coach Doc Rivers addressed the move by Harden and agreed the trip wasn’t that big of a deal.
“It’s funny,” Rivers began. “James called me before he went, and I was like, ‘So what? Do it.’ Dennis Rodman went to Vegas.

Newman, 45, hasn’t raced in NASCAR since 2021.

Jorge Masvidal had no doubts about retiring.
But he still has frustrations about the way his career ended.
Masvidal left his gloves in the cage last month at UFC 287. In front of a hometown crowd in Miami, he announced his retirement in the moments following his loss to Gilbert Burns.
“I’m proud of what I did,” says Masvidal. “I put my hard hat on, and I did some dope f—ing s—. But it’s bittersweet. I’m set for my life and I’m a household name, but if I could do it all over again, I would. There is a lot more I could have done.
