AC Milan’s Christian Pulisic received a torrent of threats on social media after his team earned a controversial 1–0 victory over Lazio on Friday.
Unhappy fans were specifically upset with Pulisic, as he was involved in altercations with three Lazio players who were sent off with red cards in the final minutes of regulation.
A lot of the on-field drama happened when Pulisic pushed Luca Pellegrini, which resulted in the Lazio defender shoving the AC Milan midfielder to the ground. Pellegrini was sent off in the 67th minute.

There could have been a nationally televised announcement on ESPN or FOX or ABC or Peacock on Thursday:
“CAITLIN CLARK DECISION – 2024.”
That’s what NBA legend LeBron James did on July 8, 2010, on ESPN when he announced he would sign as a free agent with Miami and leave Cleveland after seven seasons in a 75-minute mostly yawner.
Caitlin Clark instead just tweeted on X Thursday afternoon that she would be skipping her COVID extra season in 2024-25 at Iowa and entering the 2024 WNBA Draft to be held on April 15.
And on to the next game.
That will be Sunday (1 p.m.

The boxing match between Amanda Serrano and Nina Meinke was canceled Saturday night, just minutes before it was supposed to happen. 
Serrano suffered an eye injury Friday and was deemed medically unfit to compete in the scheduled main event by the Puerto Rican Boxing Commission.
Crying under her sunglasses, Serrano explained that the injury occurred when she was getting her hair dyed earlier in the week. A chemical from the hair dye went into the boxer’s eye during a run on Friday — damaging her cornea.
Serrano later posted a heartfelt apology on X.

Former Michigan and NFL wide receiver Braylon Edwards saved an 80-year-old man from an attack Friday in Farmington Hills, Mich., and was interviewed by a local TV station about his heroics. 
After a workout at a YMCA location, the 2004 Biletnikoff Award winner said he heard some commotion in the locker room over how loudly some music was playing. Initially, he stayed out of the altercation until he heard a “thud” that led him to believe a fight had broken out. When he went to investigate, he found a 25-year-old man beating an 80-year-old man.

Joaquin Niemann has done it again. With a four-shot victory at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club, the Chilean has now claimed wins at two of LIV Golf’s three events this season.
Niemann, 25, posted a 17-under total at LIV Jeddah, capped off by a final-round 66 and highlighted by an opening-round 63.  
Former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen and his fellow South African Charl Schwartzel tied for second place at 13 under, while Bryson DeChambeau snuck into third with a 62 on Sunday. DeChambeau’s Crushers GC took home the team title.

Le’Veon Bell has been itching to get in the ring with Jake Paul. But at the very least, he wants to see Paul fight someone with some boxing skills.
Paul — a YouTuber turned boxer — defeated 35-year-old Ryan Bourland in 2:37 in a first-round knockout Saturday night. Bell was watching, and he was not impressed.
“lol bra, this is laughable,” the former All-Pro running back wrote on X. “I don’t even care if he decides to fight me or not, just fight somebody who actually knows how to defend themselves.

Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy was the talk of the NFL scouting combine on Saturday after he blazed through the 40-yard dash with a record-breaking time of 4.21 seconds, a feat that left NFL players, pundits and fans buzzing. 
It also presented the NFL’s social media team with the perfect opportunity to troll Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, something they’ve done in the past during the combine.

Cowboys: So, Derrick Henry? Or Josh Jacobs? Or Austin Ekeler? The Cowboys need to address their red zone issues and one of those guys might help. The club also needs to make a decision on a Dak Prescott extension. Well, they don’t need to, but should because he’s in the final year of his contract and an extension is one way to lower his $59.45 million cap charge for 2024.

Wisconsin basketball fans are fed up with the state of the Badgers.
Greg Gard and the Badgers fell to Illinois 91-83 Saturday afternoon, and the team is now a mediocre 18-11 and 10-8 in conference play.
To make matters even worse, Wisconsin is a humiliating 2-7 in the team’s last nine games. Reminder, the team was ranked sixth in the country at the start of February. A little more than a month later and the team is fighting for its tournament life.
Wisconsin fans have become increasingly angry as the downfall continues.

USC freshman guard Bronny James’s potential draft decision is expected to be centered around specific team interest, and not draft position, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Saturday.
Paul, who is the longtime agent of LeBron James, will represent Bronny whenever he officially goes pro. 
“I don’t value a young player getting into the lottery as much as I do getting him on the right team in the right developmental situation,” Paul said. 
Bronny James has averaged 5.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists in nearly 20 minutes per game at USC this season.
