It’s important to be prepared, and Kiké Hernández is as prepared as you can get.
After the Boston Red Sox utility man recently admitted to accidentally sharting himself on the field, DUDE Wipes sent him thousands of their flushable wipes. Just in case it ever happens again.
You’ve got to love opportunistic marketing.

Thanks to the guys @DUDEwipes I’m prepared for my next shart attack! Cuz happens!! pic.twitter.

Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter weighed-in at 314 pounds at the NFL Combine at the beginning of March. He weighed-in at 323 pounds at his Pro Day on Wednesday.
There are a lot of factors that go into different weigh-ins, but if true, that is less-than ideal.

SOURCE: Georgia DT Jalen Carter will only do position drills at today’s pro-day. No 40 or other testing. Carter weighed in at 323 pounds, up 9 lbs from Combine.

The quarterback started in 11 games last season.
Former Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett is planning to sign with the Commanders, ESPN’s Dianna Russini reported Wednesday.
Brissett is planning to sign a one-year deal worth up to $10 million with Washington, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. He will earn $8 million guaranteed.
The Commanders were in need of a new starting quarterback after they released Carson Wentz and Taylor Heinicke was picked up by the Falcons.

The Gamecocks star has dominated women’s college basketball all season.
The Associated Press released its All-America teams for women’s basketball on Wednesday before the first four action in this year’s NCAA tournament begins later today.
South Carolina’s Aliyah Boston—who earned her third consecutive All-American honors— headlined the first-team selections after averaging 13.3 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.0 blocks a game and leading the Gamecocks to an undefeated season and the nation’s top team from wire-to-wire in back-to-back seasons.

Texas A&M Corpus Christi defeated Southeast Missouri State in the NCAA Tournament ‘First Four’ on Tuesday night. Now, as a No. 16 seed, the Islanders will have the distinct honor of trying to be the second No. 16 seed to topple a No. 1 seed— in this case, the Alabama Crimson Tide.
However, A&M Corpus Christi’s NCAA Tournament appearance sparked a larger debate on Tuesday night about the validity of the school’s mascot. They are the Islanders— but is their campus on an island?
Can they call really themselves the Islanders?
Texas A&M Corpus Christi Islanders
Let’s break it down.

The former Chiefs and Steelers playmaker has found a new team in the AFC.
The Patriots have signed JuJu Smith-Schuster to a three-year, $33 million contract. Strangely, the team lost Jakobi Meyers to the Raiders in a similar deal (which Meyers tweeted about). Regardless, Smith-Schuster is now looking like the de facto No. 1 fantasy wide receiver for New England’s passing game.
The USC product is coming off a season that saw him finish as the WR27, posting 78 receptions for 933 yards and three touchdowns.

Aaron Rodgers wants to make sure Green Bay Packers fans and people within the organization he’s been close with know he feels nothing but love for them.
He spoke in glowing fashion Wednesday afternoon on the Pat McAfee show about how much wearing the Packers G on his helmet has meant to him and recalled a trip to Rome in which Green Bay fans recognized him and talked to him.
But in announcing his intentions to play for the New York Jets in 2023, Rodgers decimated the Green Bay front office.
He basically said they lied to him and said one thing in public and another in private about him.

Purdue and Kansas face particularly tough challenges in their respective regions. Which of those two No. 1 teams will lose first?
A team’s path through March Madness can make or break their shot at a deep tournament run.
The bracket is set up to favor higher-seeded teams, and that’s worked out well lately as the last five winners have all been No. 1 seeds: Kansas in 2022, Baylor in 2021, Virginia in 2019, Villanova in 2018 and North Carolina in 2017.
Notice there are no repeat winners. The last team to go back-to-back was Florida, which cut down the nets in 2006 and again in 2007.

When asked about the unusual security presence, coach Nate Oats alluded to Miller receiving threatening correspondence.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—The Alabama men’s basketball saga took a new turn Wednesday when star player Brandon Miller came to an NCAA tournament press conference accompanied by armed security. When asked about the unusual, perhaps unprecedented, security presence, coach Nate Oats alluded to Miller receiving threatening correspondence.
“If you guys saw some of what I’ve seen sent his way, I think you’d understand why that’s the case,” Oats said.
