American tennis star Coco Gauff isn’t one to go out of her way to share her political beliefs, but when she’s presented a question about the ongoings in the United States, she’s quick to talk about just how bad things are in her home country.
During last month’s Australian Open, Gauff was among many American players who were randomly asked to share their thoughts about the country one year into President Donald Trump’s second term.

Ever since joining the Phillies, Bryce Harper has been one of the more polarizing players in baseball. When he’s on and healthy, there aren’t many better. But Harper’s inconsistency — particularly in October — drew some public criticism from Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski.
Four months later, Harper remains confused about Dombrowski airing those concerns into the public.
Back in October, Dombrowski said of Harper, “Can he rise to the next level again? I don’t really know that answer.

The Pirates selected the 34-year-old second baseman and outfielder in the sixth round of the 2013 MLB June Amateur Draft and he made his big-league debut with the club three years later.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Mike Trout says he would prefer to return to center field for the Los Angeles Angels, and the star slugger says he will skip the World Baseball Classic because of insurance issues.
The 11-time All-Star who been plagued by injuries since 2021 says his familiar position isn’t as physically demanding as the corner outfield spots, contrary to traditional thinking.
Trout played his most games since 2019 last season, finishing at 130. The three-time American League MVP started 22 of his first 29 games in right field before a knee injury sidelined him for a month.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had one of the quietly funniest moments during the All-Star Game. While not playing due to his ongoing calf strain, he was on the World Team bench for the opening game of the night, seated at the end of the court near “The Wall” of fans who stand and cheer all game (the group is called “The Swell”). Fans on the Wall started chanting “We want Giannis” midway through the 12-minute game.

If the New York Giants lose tight end Daniel Bellinger in NFL free agency, it seems unlikely they would simply give the backup tight end job to untested 2025 seventh-round pick Thomas Fidone. That could open the door for the Giants to bring in one of John Harbaugh’s former players with the Baltimore Ravens, tight end Isaiah Likely.
Likely, entering his age 26 season, is a four-year veteran who caught 135 passes, 15 for touchdowns, in 63 regular-season games after the Ravens made him a fourth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.

The No. 1 Michigan Basketball team will travel to West Lafayette to take on the No. 7 Purdue Boilermakers on Tuesday night (6:30 p.m., Peacock).

The Miami Dolphins are authoring something of a President’s Day roster massacre – cutting former Pro Bowl receiver Tyreek Hill and former Pro Bowl linebacker Bradley Chubb and other players – even as a decision on quarterback Tua Tagovailoa looms.
The Dolphins informed Chubb of their intentions to release him early Monday, a source told OutKick. An hour or so later, the team informed the agent for Hill he was also being released, per a source.
And these two moves come with substantial salary cap implications.

The SEC is the conference of coach crashouts. 
First, it was Tennessee’s Kim Caldwell calling out “a lot of quit” in her squad’s loss to South Carolina, a blunt take that gained mass traction given the caliber of opponent. The second-year coach laid fairly similar claims the week prior in a loss to Mississippi State, and this week she walked onto the court during a stoppage to light into Talaysia Cooper. 
Texas’ Vic Schaefer followed suit, describing his Longhorns as “probably the softest team I’ve had in years” following an 86-70 loss to Vanderbilt on Thursday.

The Tennessee Titans are seeking change in just about every facet they can, and who can blame them? After four-straight losing seasons, including back-to-back 3-14 campaigns, the franchise is looking for a fresh new start. Not just with Robert Saleh manning the sideline as the newest head coach, but with a completely new look as well.
Rumors of a new Titans logo have long been circulating, and they appear to have some serious validity behind them as a new-look logo has leaked online.
