New York Mets owner Steve Cohen didn’t want to miss out on all the fun on Super Bowl LVII, so he decided to have his own commercial to show off his nearly $500 million team.
The 30-second commercial features a variety of Mets players, including Francisco Lindor, Brandon Nimmo, Edwin Diaz, Kodai Senga and of course Mr. Met (although Mrs. Met was missing). The players appear from the ‘Mets ticket office,’ and the premise of the commercial is to you guessed it – make money by selling as many tickets as possible for the upcoming season.

Our experts provide their favorite bets, player props and novelty props for Super Bowl LVII between the Chiefs and Eagles.
Super Bowl LVII features two teams that are near mirror images of each other.
Both the Chiefs and Eagles are No. 1 seeds with identical 16-3 records thanks to boasting quarterbacks who are MVP contenders.
The near impossible task of separating the two powerful squads has resulted in a virtual coin-flip point spread. The Eagles, who briefly opened as 1.5-point underdogs, have held steady as 1.

Phoenix jumped into the top tier of contenders after it acquired Kevin Durant in a blockbuster deal. Plus, see where the rest of the league stands now.
A new favorite to win the Western Conference emerged from an especially busy NBA trade deadline.
Several teams executed cost-saving deals or made marginal improvements to their current rosters, but the Suns went all-in with a blockbuster trade that netted them Kevin Durant and boosted their odds of winning their first-ever NBA title.

The Suns have entered the chat. The Lakers have not. And the Warriors have left it. Here’s how scouts, GMs and front-office executives are evaluating these NBA trade deadline moves.

As of this posting, Derek Carr is still a Raiders quarterback. But that is expected to change in the coming days, as Las Vegas is likely to release Carr before his $40.4 million in guarantees kick in next week.

The 2022 season for Alabama football was a rollercoaster ride that had as many twists and turns as the ‘Soaring Eagle’ at Dollywood. It resulted in many college football pundits wondering if it was the beginning of the demise of Nick Saban. I’m here to tell you it’s not.
You could easily try to write-off Saban after Alabama’s loss to LSU, or the loss to Tennessee, which some decided was the end of the Crimson Tide dynasty.

Patrick Mahomes once slid out of the top-10 of the 2017 NFL Draft. What did scouts miss?
Before Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes became a defense-destroying, record-shattering football warlock, he was a three-star QB and the 50th ranked player in the state of Texas coming out of high school. He was seen as a raw prospect, who flashed the tantalizing arm strength and creative ability, yet didn’t do enough within the pocket to be considered one of the top QBs in the class.

A best bet from Pat Forde for Saturday’s Big Ten battle between No. 18 Indiana and Michigan in Ann Arbor.
The Big Ten race is a traffic jam behind leader Purdue, with eight teams clustered between 8-5 and 7-6 in league play.
That includes both No. 18 Indiana and Michigan.
One of these two is more desperate than the other. That would be Michigan, which has finally found and switch and flipped it to win three straight games and get back into NCAA Tournament contention at 14-10 overall, 8-5 in the conference.

Russell Westbrook’s wife is not pleased with ESPN.
Westbrook was traded to the Utah Jazz from the Lakers in a blockbuster trade, and after the move was made ESPN’s Dave McMenamin claimed someone told him Westbrook was “a vampire” in the locker room. It’s not even clear what the hell that’s supposed to mean.

Congrats LA, You Finally Got Rid of Russell Westbrook

When ESPN shared the quote on Instagram from the channel’s NBA page, his wife Nina went nuclear on the network.
This is just sick ESPN… Russell is no vampire.
