The investigative reporting on Nick Bosa’s rendition of the Trump Dance last Sunday has hit a climax and now we know through a well-placed source that the dance wasn’t even Bosa’s idea.
And unlike other stories with anonymous sources we’re at liberty to divulge the name of the source for this one: San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Shanahan did his weekly hit on the Bay Area’s KNBR on Thursday and the subject of Bosa’s dance came up.
“That was the Trump dance,” Shanahan told hosts Tom Tolbert.

Realignment had at least one good result: The return of a series defined by its weirdness and moments of national prominence.

Nikola Jokic will miss the Nuggets’ NBA Cup game at the Pelicans due to personal reasons.

After three weeks out with a quadriceps injury, Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is expected to play Sunday against the Chargers.

Paul Pogba will leave Juventus after the Serie A club confirmed the termination of his contract by mutual consent on Friday.

In what feels like a passing of the torch, New York Jets left tackle Tyron Smith — one of the NFL’s most decorated linemen — was ruled out for Sunday with a neck ailment that could land him on injured reserve.

If you find yourself in sunny Southern California for the Rose Bowl, here is your guide to Los Angeles.
This season, the Rose Bowl will be a College Football Playoff quarterfinal matchup set for New Year’s Day. Although we don’t know yet which teams will play, it is never too early to start your travel planning.
The Rose Bowl, a beautiful and historic stadium, is located in Pasadena, California. One of the great things about the Rose Bowl is the scenic location of the California mountains and (hopefully) sunny weather.

Mookie Betts sure knows how to play mind games.
At the MLB Awards last night (which were held in Las Vegas, NV), the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar was accepting his All MLB outfield award in front of a packed house. Some of the players in attendance have not yet won a World Series, while Betts has won three (2018, 2020, and 2024). When he got on stage, Chris Young asked what Betts’ advice would be to younger players wanting to get to the top of the MLB mountain themselves.
His answer, while refreshingly honest and punchy, forecasted a dark future for any team not wearing Dodger blue.

Rory McIlroy will win a sixth Order of Merit title, but he craves something more at this week’s DP World Tour Championship.
Rory McIlroy has had a rollercoaster of a season, featuring plenty more lows than highs.
His loss at Pinehurst No. 2, where he missed two putts inside of five feet on holes 16 and 18, immediately comes to mind. So does his missed cut at The Open, where the blustery Ayrshire conditions wreaked havoc on his mind and game.

This is the story of the mighty Lakota and one

The Bills have ruled tight end Dalton Kincaid, who’s second on the team in receptions, out for Sunday’s game against the visiting Chiefs.

I’ve learned to never underestimate the power of sports, and the acts of kindness that can come from such a simple game of basketball. In this case, it’s about fans rallying around a player they had probably never heard of before taking the court on Wednesday night in Knoxville. But one thing is for certain, Tennessee fans will remember Montana’s Money Williams. 
As the Vols took the court against Montana, there was something special that was about to occur, and it wasn’t just during the basketball game.

Colts going back to QB Anthony Richardson shows their plan has shifted to his development
Ice Cube got fired on his day off; Anthony Richardson got re-hired on his.
Richardson is this week’s ‘Quarterback of the Week’ even though he hasn’t even started a game since tapping out against the Texans on Oct. 27, because in a league where a quarterback is only as valuable as what happened in the last game — whether he played or not — sometimes a couple of weeks off the field is better than another bad game on it.

The Yahoo team delivers their most steadfast predictions for Week 11.

One of the fun lead-ins to big NFL games is listening to the teams speak about the looming matchup because it’s often interesting and sometimes even a little cringey. And that’s why we make you aware of Buffalo Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins.
Dawkins is an outstanding football player. Not pretty good, but outstanding.
But as a sage on the state of the NFL he’s a total failure.
And the evidence of that is he thinks the Bills are America’s Team.
“The Buffalo Bills are America’s Team,” Dawkins told reporters this week.

The Bucks’ contention window is already closed, whether they realize it or not. Trading Giannis is the only way out.
No cliché in the English language is as misunderstood as “rock bottom.”
It is a historical phrase, not intended for present-tense use — applied retroactively to the lowest moment of a timeline that has already reached its conclusion. But when struggling through the doldrums of being alive, we may naively believe that, because things are so bad right now, they can only get better.

Here’s what to do around Hard Rock Stadium if you find yourself there for the CFP.
With tickets for the College Football Playoff about to be flying off Christmas shelves like Christmas elves, fans are going to be looking for things to do, places to stay and restaurants to eat at come playoff time. The most popular spot will be Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, which hosts the Orange Bowl on Jan. 9, 2025. Here’s what I would do around Hard Rock Stadium come playoff time.

This kid reporter didn’t know what was coming when she asked Mike Tyson about his legacy.
Mike Tyson is back in the spotlight for his fight against YouTube prankster Jake Paul going down Friday on Netflix. At 58 years old, Tyson is far removed from his heyday as one of the most ferocious boxers of all-time. This fight against Paul offers an opportunity for younger sports fans to learn about his career who weren’t even born for his stretch as the undisputed heavyweight champion from 1987-1990.
The pre-fight build up between Tyson and Paul has been full of shenanigans.

As OutKick reported on Wednesday, a dozen women filed a lawsuit against the Mountain West, among other defendants, alleging First Amendment violations surrounding San Jose State volleyball’s transgender player, Blaire Fleming. 
Of the 12 plaintiffs, nine are current players representing five Mountain West schools: San Jose State, Boise State, Wyoming, Utah State and Nevada. 
Boise State, Wyoming, Nevada and Utah State have forfeited a total of six conference matches against San Jose State because they did not want to compete against Fleming, a biological male.
