Every NFL team will pay for Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady‘s rage. The league reportedly sent memos to all 32 teams before Week 3, warning them about breaking tablets after Brady smashed two of them during a Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints, per Fox’s Jay Glazer. Footage of Brady throwing, and likely breaking, one tablet was shown on the broadcast. After the win over the Saints, Brady acknowledged he broke one tablet, and apologized for it in a video on Twitter. ESPN’s Adam… Source link

BOSTON — Following their suspension of head coach Ime Udoka for the entire 2022-23 NBA season, Boston Celtics managing partner Wyc Grousbeck and president of basketball operations Brad Stevens offered scant factual substance during Friday’s news conference, citing “privacy reasons for the people involved.” The Celtics officially suspended Udoka on Thursday night “for violations of team policies.” The news came less than 24 hours after The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported through anonymous… Source link

There certainly were contentious issues with arbitrator Sue L. Robinson’s decision in the Deshaun Watson case last month. But one thing Robinson got absolutely correct was how she noted that the NFL’s inconsistencies played a role in how she came to her conclusion on Watson’s six-game punishment (which has since been changed to 11 games after appeal). The inconsistency of sanctions continues to baffle observers, and not just how players are dealt with. And it’s not just the NFL. We saw it again… Source link

South Carolina women’s head basketball coach Dawn Staley announced the Gamecocks won’t face BYU in a home-and-home series that was scheduled to start this year. A Black female Duke volleyball player accused BYU home spectators of shouting racial slurs at her during a match last week. “As a head coach, my job is to do what’s best for my players and staff,” Staley said in a statement Friday night. “The incident at BYU has led me to reevaluate our home-and-home, and I don’t feel that this… Source link

Power Rankings are silly. Power Rankings are fun. I like silly and fun things. And you probably do, too. Today’s assignment is to rank how fantasy-useful the 32 NFL clubs are. I considered ADP and market behavior, then added in some scouting takes and a little special sauce (probably Thousand Island dressing). It’s my list and sure, it’s subjective. I welcome your reasonable disagreement at any time: @scott_pianowski on Twitter. Here’s the 1.0 version of Fantasy Power Rankings,… Source link

As terms of the Deshaun Watson disciplinary settlement became public Thursday, an NFL executive familiar with the Cleveland Browns quarterback posed a question that is bound to linger in the ensuing months. It encapsulated the lengthy path the league carved on its way to the negotiated outcome, a route that went from the NFL’s 19-month pursuit and 215-page investigative report, to an overturned arbitration ruling, to commissioner Roger Goodell embracing words like “egregious” and… Source link

The Milwaukee Brewers released pitcher Luke Barker this week, and he’s not happy about it. It’s not the fact that he was released that got to him, however. That happens in baseball all the time. It was that he was designated for assignment and released just hours after he underwent Tommy John surgery. “Unfortunately, this means my time as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers organization has come to an end,” he wrote on Twitter on Thursday night. “I’ll let others decide whether… Source link
