Look, I'm not sure how it would look, but ... have we ever thought about maybe giving Kansas some bigger responsibilities during the NASCAR Cup Series season? As in, the championship race? I know we're going to start rotating those bad boys moving forward. I'm thinking Kansas should be on the list. No offense to Miami. Yes, offense to Phoenix. Kansas might clear them both.

If you need a quick summation of what it's like to be living in the year 2026, boy, do I have a story for you. Nike recently put up a sign ahead of the Boston Marathon on Newberry Street that may have seemed innocuous to anyone with a brain. However, you would be wise to remind yourself these are stupid times we are living in. Take a look at exactly what the sign said and figure out for yourself why people are so offended. "Runners welcome. Walkers tolerated." Clever and cute. Or, so I thought.

There may not be a pettier league on the face of this planet than the NBA. Players, coaches, and even fans take great delight in the anguish of their rivals, and they will never miss an opportunity to twist the knife when given the chance. That gets ratcheted up even higher when the playoffs roll around, which is why this latest example of fan pettiness should come as no surprise.

The Colorado Rockies entered the weekend tied for last place in the NL West, trailing the Los Angeles Dodgers by 7.5 games just 19 games into the 2026 MLB season. They snapped a six-game losing streak Thursday with a win over the Houston Astros. The Rockies welcomed the Dodgers to Coors Field for a four-game set, and based on how both teams were playing, it appeared to be an opportunity for the Dodgers to continue their torrid start to the season.

You probably read that headline and thought to yourself, "Yeah, and the sky is blue. Where are you going with this?" I realize the Miami Marlins aren't exactly the picture of a model MLB franchise, with their myriad firesales and crappy attendance numbers, but every once in a while, even when the team starts to show signs that they aren't completely destitute, a sign from God comes down and reminds their fans that they aren't meant to have any fun.

Another round of college football spring games took place across the nation earlier this week, as the weather continues to warm and the campuses farther to the north start their spring football activities. While most programs are using this time to iron out their quarterback depth chart or figure out what their two-deep looks like along the offensive line, there are others who treat their spring game as a celebration for the fans as well as a culmination of the players' hard work this winter.

I'm not for a second going to pretend like I know what is going on between influencer Alix Earle and podcast host Alex Cooper. The truth of the matter is I don't know any of the details. All I do know is that there's some sort of online beef between the two, and, from the looks of it, the situation is somewhat serious. And if I'm being honest, the only reason I'm even considering it a serious matter is that TMZ did a "Who'd you rather?" of the two in their bikinis.

Zachariah Branch's life-changing week got off to a much faster start than anyone, including himself, could have imagined. The former Georgia wide receiver, who is widely projected to be a second-round pick in this week's 2026 NFL Draft, was arrested in Athens early Sunday morning. According to the Athens Clarke County jail booking report, Branch was charged with obstructing public sidewalks/ – prowling as well as obstruction of a law enforcement officer.

Before Saturday night's game at Coors Field, Shohei Ohtani was involved in one of the coolest pregame moments we've ever seen. After finishing a throwing session, the Los Angeles Dodgers two-way star was told about a woman sitting nearby in a wheelchair. So he walked over, knelt down and introduced himself. That woman was Momoyo Nakamoto Kelley — a 100-year-old survivor of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. Kelley, who was 19 years old when the bomb was dropped on Aug.

Max Homa launched his golf club in frustration during the final round of the RBC Heritage on Sunday, and it was a tough scene for the six-time PGA Tour winner for more reasons than one. Homa, who began the final round 18 shots behind leader Matt Fitzpatrick, hit a wayward teeshot and was left in a very tough position in a waste area amongst the trees at Harbour Town.
