Get ready for carnage at the Arnold Palmer Invitational this weekend.
Bay Hill, which hosts this event every year, has already drawn comparisons to the U.S. Open due to its difficulty.
But Saturday’s forecast will make it even more challenging.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about some of their favorite players who were named to the Spring Breakout squads, Brayan Bello’s contract extension in Boston & chat with Dalton Del Don about the upcoming fantasy season.

Back in January, it was revealed that the opening ceremonies for the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics would involve a giant, spectacle of a boat parade down the Seine.
At the time, I pointed out what an absolute dose of televised Ambien this would be, and now it’s even worse than we thought because the only thing more boring than a spectacle of a boat parade is a stripped-down boat parade.
According to Yahoo Sports, the boat parade — they like to say “flotilla,” but let’s call a boat parade a boat parade — has been scaled back for logistical and security reasons.

Stephen A. Smith addressed the recent rumors around his relationship with Pat McAfee on Friday.
Ryan Glasspiegel of The New York Post reported Thursday that a confrontation between the two ESPN personalities had taken place, with McAfee calling Smith a “motherf—–” over creative differences between the two.
On his podcast Friday, Smith denied any problem with McAfee—and expressed gratitude for his independent-minded approach to media.
“Number one, there is no dispute whatsoever,” Smith said. “Pat McAfee is my teammate. Pat McAfee and I work together at ESPN.

With a star-studded team that is No. 1 in the West, Timberwolves fans finally have something to cheer about.

The Bruins didn’t move a goalie before Friday’s NHL trade deadline. Here’s what GM Don Sweeney had to say about it.

Earlier this year, Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill’s Miami home caught on fire. Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt, but the man they call Cheetah is still mad at one of his neighbors for how they acted during the blaze.
That neighbor just so happens to be rapper Rick Ross.
Hill’s house caught fire on January 3, and while Ross was home at the time he didn’t exactly spring into action to help with the issue at hand. Instead, he threw on his citizen journalist cap and streamed the house fire on Instagram Live.

Major League Baseball announced Friday that top Cincinnati Reds prospect Noelvi Marte had been suspended for 80 games for violating the league’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment program.
Marte’s suspension came as a result of testing positive for Boldenone, which is a banned anabolic-androgenic steroid. The 80-game suspension starts at the beginning of the regular season, meaning the Reds will be without Marte through early-July. 
This marks the first suspension for MLB under its drug prevention program since J.C.

Wyndham Clark made nine birdies, which helped him soar up the leaderboard and into a share of the lead at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Wyndham Clark made an abundance of birdies at Bay Hill, a course that, due to its difficulty, has been compared to the U.S. Open.

He did just that Friday.

Homa is known for his candid sense of humor and he brought it Friday to Kaufman at Arnie’s Place.
Max Homa’s presence on social media is becoming legendary among PGA Tour pros. So much so that he has taken on the role of breaking down fans swings and typically destroying them.
Well, Friday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, Homa joined NBC Sports’ Smylie Kaufman for his Happy Hour segment.
Of course they had a good time, but it was at Kaufman’s expense.

“We’re gonna blame the hoodie.
