Charles Oakley said some fighting words about Michael Jordan in a sit down interview with Kevin Garnett.

Virtue-signaling Dawn Staley — who made news last year by canceling the program’s game with BYU for no reason whatsoever — blasted the national media following South Carolina’s Final Four loss to Iowa.
It appears the longtime coach was NOT happy with how her team was allegedly portrayed throughout the tournament.
“We’re not bar fighters,” Staley said when asked about the narrative surrounding the team. “We’re not thugs. We’re not monkeys. We’re not street fighters. This team exemplifies how you need to approach basketball, on the court and off the court.

At 38-39, the Raptors are currently hanging on to a spot in the play-in tournament with five games left in the season. Toronto is tied with the Hawks for the No. 8 seed in the East and just a game back of the Heat for the No. 7 seed.
However, while the Raptors season will likely extend by at least one game following the regular season, Nick Nurse is already thinking towards the future. Toronto’s coach told the media he will need to mull what he wants to do next year once the season ends.

This has been a tournament like no other — and now we have a Final Four that is as far from last year’s group as it gets.

Bills legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Jim Kelly believes that Buffalo needs to get more talent in the running back room to help star quarterback Josh Allen.
“Josh can’t do everything by himself, and I hope they find a way to get a star running back,” Kelly told News 10 NBC Rochester.
The Bills have great belief in young running back James Cook, and added former Patriots running back Damien Harris in free agency to help ease the loss of running back Devin Singletary, who left in free agency to join the Texans.
“I always thought Singletary was pretty good.

The LSU women’s basketball team is off to the NCAA title game, and it took a full team effort to get ’em past Virginia Tech Friday night.
And I’m not just talking about the players.
Less than a minute into the game, a wayward shot sent the basketball up and into the back of the hoop, where it promptly got stuck and delayed the action.
Not to worry, though! The LSU cheerleaders took a break from the hold up, wait a minute, let me put some spirit in it and quickly came to the rescue.
Teamwork makes the dream work!

Iowa guard Caitlin Clark has dazzled basketball fans this March with a bevy of high-scoring feats, including a 41-point triple-double against Louisville in the Elite Eight followed by another 41-point outing against South Carolina in the Final Four.
Her feats become even more impressive, however, when weighed against the gridiron accomplishments of the Hawkeyes—perennially one of the lowest-scoring teams in the country.

Savage! That’s how basketball fans reacted after a star women’s basketball player pulled the ultimate disrespectful move on an opponent in Friday night’s Final Four game.
Iowa’s Caitlin Clark, who is the Associated Press National Player of the Year because she’s so damn good, was supposed to be guarding South Carolina guard Raven Johnson.
That was, until she wasn’t.
But not only did Clark not guard Johnson at one point in the game, she did so in the most IDGAF way – by blowing her off with a hand wave!

Caitlin Clark is cold af for this pic.twitter.

Josh Heupel’s second season in Tennessee was a big one, as he led the Volunteers to an 11–2 record and Orange Bowl victory and earned a contract extension after the year. It was the first time Tennessee won double-digit games since 2007, and the first time they lost two games or less since 2001.
As a result, Volunteer fans were reenergized by the team and excited for what Heupel can do for the program in the future. One specific fan was so excited that he got Heupel’s face tattooed on his leg.
On Friday, Heupel finally got to meet the fan with his face on his leg.

New York Yankees outfield Aaron Judge made the ultimate faux pas this week that has diehard Yankees fans scratching their heads.
The recently re-signed $360 million Yankees captain gave fellow New York athlete and Knicks star Julius Randle and his family some merch on Opening Day.

COME ON AARON!
A cool gesture between two of the city’s stars, right?
You’d think so.
