Toni Storm is leaving pro wrestling. After losing the AEW Women’s World Championship to Mariah May at All In 2024, and following losses in both NJPW and CMLL, Storm told SB Nation in an exclusive interview (and in a style all of her own) that there’s nothing left for her in the sport.
Storm apologized to her fans for “being such a failure,” adding that they won’t be seeing her in AEW, NJPW, CMLL, or anywhere else in wrestling.

Dalton Knecht’s NBA dreams could have died so many times. Instead, he’s living his fantasy with the Lakers.
Dalton Knecht’s NBA dreams should have been over when he didn’t land a scholarship to his dream school, Colorado, coming out of high school in suburban Denver. He was forced to play JUCO ball the next two years, which eventually led to an opportunity at tiny Northern Colorado. Knecht failed to land a starting spot in his first year with the Bears. In his second, the team finished only 12-20 with Knecht as their leading man.

I’ll never read a late-night Schefter tweet the same again.
It takes a lot of self-sacrifice to be an NFL insider, and Adam Schefter’s dedication to the craft is second to none. On Wednesday the ESPN personality was asked on This is Football about the weirdest place he’s every broken a story and… well… it was sex. He was having sex.

I asked @AdamSchefter the weirdest place he’s ever broken a story. I cannot possibly recommend this clip more.

Is former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis trying to follow in the footsteps of Deion Sanders and Eddie George by becoming a college football head coach? 
Well, it sounds like Ray Lewis is at least throwing his name into the ring for the Florida Atlantic job, according to a post by Adam Schefter. 
I don’t know how much stock you want to put into this equation, but there is obviously a reason why Schefter would be putting out a post about something like this.

The Patriots are putting everything in Drake Maye’s hands, and the rookie is answering the call
The 2024 NFL season has a familiar — and unfamiliar — feel for New England Patriots fans.
The keys to the offense, and the franchise, have been handed to a rookie quarterback. A first-round selection, wearing No. 10, tasked with taking over an offense that years ago was considered the league’s best, and living up to lofty expectations and potential comparisons to one of the game’s best.

After Lakers guard Dalton Knecht tied an NBA rookie record with nine 3-pointers en route to 37 points in a 124-118 win over the Jazz on Tuesday, LeBron James wanted to clarify just how Knecht landed in L.A.

The knives are out around the New York Jets again, and now they’re taking wild stabs at club owner Woody Johnson.
That’s the newest chapter to a saga that has the Jets going from a team bragging about being a Super Bowl contender to a team conceding a total reboot is coming following the firing of head coach Robert Saleh last month, the firing of general manager Joe Douglas on Tuesday, and the likely parting of ways with quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the offseason.
The Jets on Tuesday went in on themselves. Johnson fired Douglas, which by the way, was exactly the right move.

There’s more evidence to suggest Giddey should seek to switch positions.

The Los Angeles Sparks hired Lynne Roberts, a former college coach of 27 years. The Dream snagged FGCU’s Karl Smesko.
The Los Angeles Sparks have found their new head coach: Lynne Roberts, a seasoned Division I coach with 27 seasons of collegiate women’s basketball experience. That hiring was announced just a week after a different WNBA head coaching vacancy was filled, with Florida Gulf Coast’s Karl Smesko being named head coach of the Atlanta Dream.
