Jaylen Brown was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers from the Boston Celtics on Wednesday afternoon. The Celtics get Paul George and a couple of draft picks. When this news broke, I thought it was a complete joke and a bad move on the Celtics' part. You traded a guy who was well-liked and respected in Boston. What the hell were they even thinking, trading him to a rival in their own division? Are the Celtics insane right now? Brown was the 2024 Finals MVP, second all-NBA, an

Folarin Balogun was dominant in the first half and put the U.S ahead 1-0 in the 45th minute. Then, in the second half, he was given a red card and was sent off for the rest of the game. When a player is given a red card, they are not only out of the game but also suspended for one game. Mailk Tillman put the U.S. up 2-0 in the 82nd minute off a free-kick just outside the box. Balogun had matched with Landon Donovan in 2010 for the most goals by an American in a single Wor

The Panthers and Senators agreed to a deal on Sunday night, with Florida sending four draft picks to Ottawa for Brady Tkachuk.

Brady Tkachuk spent his entire eight seasons in the NHL with Ottawa, and he now gets to play with his brother, Matthew, for whom he played on the US Men's Olymp

The Americans went up 2-0 in the first half, thanks to an own goal by Australia’s Cameron Burgess in the 11th minute, and then Alex Freeman, 21 years old, scored his first World Cup goal in the 43rd minute. With the win over Australia on Friday afternoon, they not only clinched a spot in the knockout round but also won their group. Australia had so many chances but couldn’t get anything going. As the Group D winners, they will play a round-of-32 match on July 1st in San

Harry Kane, one of my favorite soccer players, scored twice and tied the England record for World Cup goals. Jude Bellingham and Marcus Rashford also scored goals in the game for England. Croatia closed the gap a little bit with two goals of their own by Martin Baturina and Petar Musa just before halftime. Kane now has 10 World Cup goals, tying the mark set by Gary Lineker in the 1986 and 1990 tournaments with England. England looked like a good team in the first ga

Nikolaj Ehlers sealed the deal with an empty-net goal (8th) in the third period. Staal, 37 years old, won the

Mexico made a statement, and their fans at Azteca Stadium were impressed as they beat South Africa 2-0. In the 9th minute, Julian Quinones scored to put Mexico ahead 1-0. Raúl Jiménez got his first goal in the 67th minute, which put his team up 2-0. There were three red cards in the game, which I have never seen before. South Africa had no answer and couldn't get anything going on offense. Mexico looked strong in their first match, but it's a long tournament, and many

Buffalo opened the scoring on the power-play, with Rasmus Dahlin found the back of the net to make it 1-0. Elias Lindholm answered to tie the game at 1-1 with his 2nd goal of the series. The 3rd period delivered nonstop action, with both teams generating chance after chance and peppering shots on net, but neither side could break the tie. In overtime, 9:14 into the period, the Bruins finally got their moment. Hampus Lindholm makes a fantastic pass from the blue line, righ

In Game 2, the Bruins did respond, but they needed to send a message. In the opening period, neither team was able to break through the ice. Viktor Arvidsson got things rolling with his 1st of the playoffs, giving Boston a 1-0 lead. Then Morgan Geekie scored a goal like you wouldn't have seen coming, he flipped a backhand from center ice, and it got a lucky bounce that went past the goalie and into the net. I would call that goal lucky for sure, scoring his 2nd playoff go

From my point of view, this was another game to remember. It came down to the wire with either side giving in until the final moments. It was scoreless in the 1st period. But Canada got on the board early in the 2nd period on a short-handed goal by Kristin O’Neill (3rd). Hilary Knight scored her (3rd) Olympic goal, deflecting a shot from Laylia Edwards and tying the game at 1-1 with 2:04 remaining.

Alex Hall, the defending Olympic champion in men’s freestyle skiing slopestyle, earned silver in his return to the podium. He scored 85.75 on his second run, trailing Norway’s Brik Ruud by just one point. But a slip on a rail early in his final run ended his chance of earning another gold. Ruud with an impressive score of 86.28 on his second run. But in his final attempt, he fell. He had already won gold despite the fall. This skiing event made its debut at the 2014 So
