It was only two seasons ago when New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge took the baseball world by storm as he eventually surpassed former Yankee Roger Maris’ 61 single season AL home runs record with 62.
… And don’t look now, but Judge is well on his way to doing it again! 
Yet, unless you’re a Yankees fan, you probably don’t even know about it. 
Tuesday night, Judge hit a missile over the left field wall in the Bronx to make it 32 homers on the year.

Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods have long been working towards opening a sports bar together around the corner from St. Andrews in Fife, Scotland, and the duo have reportedly gotten the go-ahead to do so. Two megastars opening a business together isn’t exactly Earth-shattering news, but given the timing of it all, it’s certainly newsworthy.
In case you may have missed it, Timberlake was arrested in the Hamptons and charged with one count of driving while intoxicated shortly after midnight on June 18.

On the surface this seems beyond ludicrous.

Bronny James’ reported contract with the Lakers proves the franchise and league shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Now, he’s an NBA player, and he’s being paid a lot of money to likely ride the bench.
LeBron agreed Wednesday to a new two-year contract worth $104 million with the Lakers. His son didn’t wait long to also agree to terms.

Odds are you are familiar with the NFL Films product of Hard Knocks, a documentary series that chronicles a team throughout the course of training camp and the preseason and ultimately ends right as the regular season begins.
Recently NFL Films has produced an in-season version of the show where they follow teams throughout the course of an NFL season. That is pretty self-explanatory.

NHL development camps are in full swing across the league which means the stars of tomorrow are on the ice, including those who were just in Las Vegas less than a week ago at the NHL Draft like No. 1 overall pick Macklin Celebrini of the San Jose Sharks.
Everyone knew long before the Draft that the reigning Hobey Baker Award winner would be headed to the Bay Area, which is coincidentally where his dad works as the director of sports medicine and performance for the Golden State Warriors.
