The Hershey Bears broke a world record, again, on Sunday. During the 21st annual Teddy Bear Toss, hockey fans threw more than 67,000 stuffed bears onto the ice and watching them rain down from the stands never gets old.
At the end of the day, the children of our community are the true winners. #TeddyBearTossHershey has once again established a new WORLD RECORD of 67,309 teddy bears collected for over 35 local charities. THANK YOU for your generosity! #HersheyBearsCares pic.twitter.
Joseph Ossai is taking a beating after his boneheaded decision against the Chiefs, but that doesn’t mean he has to dwell on it.
With the clock winding down and Kansas City pretty much out of field goal range, Ossai hit Patrick Mahomes out of bounds. The idiotic decision drew an unnecessary roughness flag, which pushed the Chiefs comfortably into field goal range to set up the winning kick.
Mahomes gives it his all for the first down!

It will be his fourth Super Bowl appearance as an NFL head coach.
After the Chiefs edged the Bengals, 23–20, in a thrilling AFC title game Sunday, the victory set up Kansas City coach Andy Reid for a Super Bowl appearance against his former team, the Eagles.
When the Chiefs take the field in Super Bowl LVII, Reid will become the fifth coach to face a former team in the Super Bowl.

The Heat’s defense is great. It’s revolutionary, too.
In his 2014 novel, “Basketball Analytics: Spatial Tracking”, Stephen Shea identified rim protection as the number one variable that contributed to a team’s Defensive Rating.
Looking at the cream of the crop defensively in 2023, it appears Shea’s finding still holds true today:

If you’re going to spend 13 hours on an aircraft the very least you can ask is that you get off that plane at a different airport. It doesn’t even have to be the airport you had wanted to go to in the first place, as long as it’s not the same one you took off from, your rage would be kept somewhat in check.
That’s not what happened to some folks in Dubai.
Passengers filed onto an Emirates Airline flight that was scheduled to fly to Auckland, New Zealand.
With tears in his eyes, the Cincinnati defensive end addressed what he was thinking on the play.
It was a somber scene in the Bengals locker room after they lost to the Chiefs in the AFC championship game on Sunday, and no one was more heartbroken than Joseph Ossai.
On third-and-4 at Cincinnati’s 47-yard line with less than 20 seconds to go in the game, Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes scrambled to his right to gain five yards and a first down. After Mahomes jogged out of bounds, Ossai shoved him from behind and was called for unnecessary roughness.
Building on Chris Buescher’s win last season, Brad Keselowski is looking for continued progress in his second year as co-owner at RFK Racing.
Rory McIlroy earned his third career Dubai Desert Classic title on Monday to cap off what could very well be the most dramatic week of his career.
After Patrick Reed posted an impressive seven-under 65 to take the clubhouse lead, McIlroy was able to birdie the final hole to take the honors by a shot. It was a fitting end to a week dominated by McIlroy and Reed in the headlines.
Prior to the start of the tournament, a video showed McIlroy ignoring Reed on the driving range and the LIV golfer tossing a tee at the World No. 1.

Jaren Jackson Jr. validated his allegedly-inflated block numbers while Hornets and Cavs also picked up wins
In case you missed it over the weekend, a Reddit user unearthed maybe the biggest off-court storyline of the season in a post detailing Jaren Jackson Jr.’s inflated block numbers, or at least making the case that they were inflated.
The post, from user u/AdMassive6666, has over 65,000 upvotes on Reddit and lays out a pretty believable case that there was indeed foul play involved.
A record broken. A forgotten star reemerges. An x-factor’s big night. Surprise musical guests. A last-second kick. Why you must get out of the apartment.
The Super Bowl stage is set, featuring a matchup between the Eagles and the Chiefs. The great stoic Epictetus once said: “If you want to improve, be content being thought of as foolish and stupid.” Such is the default setting of any aspiring sports prognosticator, who aims to be both bold and accurate.
