Don’t let the NFL’s billionaire owners manipulate you.
If there’s any silver lining to this whole Lamar Jackson debacle, it’s that NFL owners are finally saying the quiet part out loud and letting the world see how much they’re whining about guaranteed contracts.

Wizards star Bradley Beal is under police investigation after a postgame incident last week with a fan in Orlando, according to police documents obtained by ESPN.

The Angels superstar will earn more money in endorsements than he will playing baseball.
MLB superstar Shohei Ohtani is projected to be the highest-paid player in history during this upcoming baseball season, according to Forbes’s Justin Birnbaum.
The current Angels pitcher is set to earn $30 million on the field this season, along with $35 million just from endorsements. This is quite the jump from him earning just $6 million in endorsements in 2021 and $20 million last season.

Deion Sanders might have some interesting attire on the sidelines this season.
The Colorado coach seemingly makes headlines every single day at this point, and he hasn’t even coached a regular season game yet with the Buffaloes.
Now, it sounds like he might have a bold dress code for himself this season, and by that, I mean he plans on keeping it casual.
Sanders posted a photo of himself eating a healthy lunch Monday, and claimed he’s “wearing a tank top coaching this season.”

Let’s lay the chalk with North Texas and UAB in the NIT semis.

Admirers are mistaking her for her daughter, who found it hilarious.
LSU forward Angel Reese’s name is becoming more famous by the day after the christened “Bayou Barbie” led her team to its first Final Four berth since 2008 on Sunday. Unfortunately for her mother, having the same name as her daughter has caused a bit of a mistaken identity when it comes to social media. 
The LSU star’s mother took to Twitter on Monday to tell the men who are reaching out to her via direct messages to stop.

“That’s the kind of stupid s— I think about in the car when I’m driving to the gym.”
Cory Sandhagen made a statement Saturday, thoroughly dominating Marlon “Chito” Vera in the UFC on an ESPN headline bout.
The win marks the second in a row for Sandhagen (16–4), as well as the fourth victory over his last six bouts. He immediately blitzed Vera (20-8-1) in the opening two rounds, landing 50 significant strikes to Vera’s 11.

The Edmonton center’s numbers defy comprehension.
Even by his lofty standards, Oilers center Connor McDavid has hit another gear this season.
Coming into 2023, there didn’t seem to be much more for McDavid to accomplish. In every season of his career except for his rookie year and pandemic-shortened 2020, the Richmond Hill, Ontario native has topped 100 points. He’s recorded six straight top-five finishes in the Hart Trophy voting and appears bound for the Hall of Fame.

The Colts are interested in the Ravens quarterback, but only at the right price.
After Colts general manager Chris Ballard expressed that the team would do their due diligence on Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, owner Jim Irsay told ESPN reporter Stephen Holder that there’s one problem:
Compensation.
However, it’s not Jackson’s salary that concerns Irsay, it’s the draft picks and additional compensation that the Colts would have to give up in a trade of if the team were to sign Jackson off his non-exclusive franchise tag.
“The money is not a problem,” Irsay told Holder.

Although the two MVP frontrunners didn’t get the chance to face one another Monday, the Nuggets star was asked his thoughts about the 76ers big man.
The 2022–23 NBA MVP race has grown rather contentious in recent weeks as lines have been drawn between supporters of two-time reigning MVP Nikola Jokić and 76ers star big man Joel Embiid. However, there seems to be nothing but respect between the two players involved in the battle for the league’s highest individual honor based on comments made by the Nuggets star on Monday evening.
