You can still hate Boston, even after a championship.
It’s a rough morning for Boston sports haters everywhere, because the city has done it again. Endlessly blessed across every major sport, fans in New England get to celebrate championships with the same frequency as the McRib returning.
But even a joyous, championship win shouldn’t dissuade you from being a Boston hater.

Dallas needed Kyrie Irving, and he just couldn’t deliver.
It’s going to be another trip around the sun before Kyrie Irving gets a chance at his second NBA championship, and he only has himself to blame. This was his opportunity, his moment to cement a legacy that exists outside of LeBron James. Now after a horrific NBA Finals series against the Celtics, it’s difficult to argue for much beyond Kyrie being in the “Hall of Very Good.

Jeff Van Gundy hasn’t been an NBA coach since 2007.

Plenty of celebrities and athletes watched the Celtics clinch their 18th championship at TD Garden in Game 5 of the 2024 NBA Finals.

F1 is getting the true Hollywood treatment
One of the many signs that Formula 1 is experiencing something of a moment?
The sport is getting the true Hollywood treatment.
Brad Pitt is starring in an upcoming feature set in the F1 world, with the actor playing a veteran driver for APXGP, a fictional team on the grid. Starring alongside Pitt is Damson Idris, who plays Pitt’s rookie teammate at APXGP.

Gentleman, we might have found the coolest woman on the internet, and it was in an unexpected place.
“College Football 25” comes out in less than a month, and the expectation for many guys is that we’re going to seclude ourselves in a gaming cave to enjoy the first college football video game in eleven years.
That means many girlfriends are going to be left alone with a bunch of free time on their hands. I hate to say it (I actually don’t at all), but my girlfriend is probably going to have to get used to not seeing me much after the game’s release.

Among the many stops Bryson DeChambeau made along his media circus journey after winning his second U.S. Open on Sunday including a visit to Trump National Golf Club in New York on Monday night. He stopped in for a drink, and a rather large and unique one at that.
Upon his arrival to the club, DeChambeau was greeted with a video message from former President Donald Trump congratulating him on his drama-packed victory at Pinehurst No. 2 over the weekend.

The Celtics proved the old adage — “Defense wins championships’ — correct.
On the surface, it was a seemingly mundane baseline out-of-bounds (BLOB) play at the four minute and ten second mark of the second quarter that the Dallas Mavericks were priming to run. But as is true of high-stakes NBA basketball, there are multiple layers hidden beneath the supposed simplicity of an NBA possession.
When you think of how the Boston Celtics defended the Mavs throughout the course of the 2024 NBA Finals, the aforementioned possession makes a ton of sense.

Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla sported a shirt that read ‘But First Let Me Thank God’ across the front of it as he and his players celebrated winning the franchise’s 18th championship on Monday night.
Mazzulla, who speaks about his Christian faith often, wasted no time in giving praise following the Celtic’s 18-point victory in Game 5 in Boston. The 35-year-old head coach wore a black crewneck throughout the series-clinching game and appeared to come fully prepared with his ‘But First Let Me Thank God’ shirt underneath.
