Mike Cole insists that, until a few months ago, he gladly would have accepted $500 in exchange for his unused ticket to Michael Jordan’s 1984 NBA debut. Thankfully for him, nobody ever made him that low-ball offer. A ticket that Cole stashed for years in his basement alongside some other old keepsakes turned out to have more than just sentimental value. It was one of two tickets that nearly doubled the previous record for the most expensive vintage sports ticket when their auctions closed… Source link

Tom Forte bought a desk made from recycled skateboards on Etsy (ETSY) during the pandemic, then a matching stool. What’s unusual about Forte isn’t that he bought something on the site — 96 million people did that last year. What’s unusual is his gender. Forte’s familiar with Etsy in part because he’s an analyst at D.A. Davidson who covers the stock. But the company’s own 2020 research found that 50% of male-identified customers in the U.S. weren’t even aware the company… Source link

She said a rapidly-changing situation often results in a flight out of risk assets, but this isn’t a good strategy in the longer run. Russia invaded Ukraine on Thursday in the region’s largest military operation since World War 2. Financial markets have been roiled this week after… Source link

JUPITER, Fla. – The deadline set by Major League Baseball to ensure a 162-game season and save the scheduled March 31 opening day is now close enough you could measure the time left to get a deal in hours, not days. If there is no deal by Monday, the league has said that it will start canceling regular season games, and has publicly avowed that those games will not be rescheduled and players will not be paid for them. So to say it was a bad sign that bargaining ended Saturday with the… Source link

Sunday slates are going to be wild from here on out. There will be games spread throughout the day, and that’s certainly the case here with eight overall and five making up the main card beginning at 7 p.m. ET.

Guards Anfernee Simons, POR vs. DEN ($28) The Trail Blazers look to be in rebuild mode, but it’s… Source link

LAS VEGAS — The UFC’s lightweight division is filled with elite talent. Champion Charles Oliveira will defend against Justin Gaethje in May, and if he gets through that successfully, he’ll most likely face Islam Makhachev next. Makhachev’s dominance is impossible to overlook at this point. Former champion Conor McGregor is lobbying for a title shot, but if McGregor, coming off back-to-back losses to Dustin Poirier and with a 1-3 record in his last four, gets a shot it would render the… Source link

When asked about Oklahoma City Thunder rookie guard Josh Giddey during All-Star weekend pressers, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James unpromptedly started to praise Thunder GM Sam Presti. “The MVP over there is Sam Presti. He the MVP. I mean, Josh Giddey is great, but Sam Presti — I don’t understand this guy’s eye for talent,” said James. “He drafted KD, Russ, Jeff Green, Serge Ibaka, Reggie Jackson, Josh Giddey and the list goes on and on and on. This guy’s pretty damn… Source link

With great success comes great criticism — or something like that. Exhibit A: Former New York Knicks All-Star Charles Oakley says Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo won him over after winning his first NBA championship last year, but argued the two-time MVP is not good enough to earn a starting role in Oakley’s era. Appearing on SLAM magazine’s “No Pump Fakes” podcast earlier this month, Oakley and the show’s hosts discussed Antetokounmpo. “It’s refreshing to see Giannis… Source link
