The Los Angeles Dodgers won the 2024 World Series, securing their second title in the last five seasons after the 2020 title. Since that 2020 win came during an election year, the team made the traditional ceremonial visit to the White House under the Biden Administration. Though it’s unclear if Joe Biden knew who the Dodgers were, where he was at the time, or what sport the team plays.
As the 2024 title also came in an election year, the Dodgers should now be set to visit the White House under the second Trump administration. And some opinion writers are very, very unhappy about it.

LAS PALMAS, Spain (AP) — Two goals in the last five minutes gave Las Palmas a 2-2 home draw with Alaves and a valuable point in its fight against relegation from La Liga on Friday.
Alaves went ahead in the sixth minute when Toni Martínez beat the offside trap and thumped in a volley unmarked.
Substitute Jon Guridi made it 2-0 for the visitors after 62 minutes when he took a defense-splitting pass from Asier Villalibre and rounded the goalkeeper to side-foot home.
If Cooper Kupp were a vengeful person, we might think his decision to sign with the Seattle Seahawks was about playing his former team, the Los Angeles Rams, twice per season.
But it’s not that.
Kupp, released by the Rams on Wednesday, has agreed to a deal that will send him to the Seahawks.
And the reason that was his best option is Kupp was born and raised in Yakima, Washington and he wanted to remain on the West Coast. So he’s going back to his home state and staying close to his L.A. home all at once.
The Valspar Championship will feature 24 of the top 50 players in the Official World Golf Ranking, the PGA Tour announced Friday evening.
Among those competing in the $8.7 million event at Innisbrook Resort will be Xander Schauffele, Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth, Akshay Bhatia, Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry, Sahith Theegala and Luke Clanton, the amateur who recently earned his PGA Tour card.
Here’s a look at the initial full field in Palm Harbor, Florida:
Highlighted by World No.
Cooper Kupp and the Seattle Seahawks have agreed on a three-year, $45 million contract, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Friday because the contract hasn’t been signed.
Kupp, the Super Bowl 56 MVP, was released by the Los Angeles Rams on Wednesday. He’ll help replace DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett for his home state team in Seattle, which traded quarterback Geno Smith and signed Sam Darnold in free agency.
It appears Ja’Marr Chase‘s ability to play the long game with the Cincinnati Bengals will indeed get him paid in a big way. The star wide receiver is expected to land a deal that will pay him between $40.2 million to $41 million per season, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The deal would put Chase ahead of other big-money wide receivers like fellow LSU wide receiver and Minnesota Vikings star Jordan Jefferson ($140 million over four years) and the Dallas Cowboys’ CeeDee Lamb ($136 million over four years).
The speculation surrounding star wide receiver Cooper Kupp’s next destination has finally come to an end. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the former Super Bowl MVP is signing with the Seattle Seahawks.
The New England Patriots were believed to be one of many teams in the mix to land Kupp, but according to The Athletic’s Jeff Howe, the 31-year-old receiver’s asking price reached as high as $15 million per year.

Justin Thomas had the course record in his grasp, but he wound up tying the best score ever shot at TPC Sawgrass.
Justin Thomas stood on the 18th tee at TPC Sawgrass with a chance at history.
If he could make a par, he would set a new course record with an 11-under 61. But since Thomas made a mess of this challenging hole the day before, he felt extra pressure. On Thursday, Thomas tugged his tee shot into the water that extends down the entire 18th hole.
The Bengals are actively working to get both wide receivers, Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins signed as soon as possible, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
