In Case You Missed It

This week’s sports rundown


1.     The J. Rod show has arrived, but Juan Soto gets to celebrate with Bad Bunny in the end.

2.     Ronald Acuna was almost set on fire

3.     The MLB tried to stage a Pujols Derby win, but The Machine ran out of juice

4.     There’s a Derek Jeter doc. But Who gives a s***?

5.     Sean Payton says he’s probably coming back to coaching but doesn’t know the destination. So, he’s dead to me, but we’ll take those picks delivered straight to Airline Dr. Overnight delivery, please and thank you.

6.     The MLB All Star game happened. The AL won again. So, there’s that.

7.     They did unveil a new “Ump Cam” and then the ump proceeded to take a foul ball to the face. Timing… am I right? 

8.     Make Mic’d up pitchers permanent.

9.     The King Fish mascot that got decapitated by AJ Dillion is actually a tiny human that is 5’9 and runs cross country

10.  Mike Evans is a 99 in Madden 23. My only take away from that is that I apparently slept through an entire season. 

11.  Madden gave Kamara a 90 rating, and apparently Joe Mixon is better. More proof I entered a year long slumber at some point 

12.  James Harden is worth 34mil a year huh? Agree to disagree Philly 

13.  Kyler Murray got a BAG!! He is going to make more in a year than the A’s (team who drafted him in baseball) are paying their entire roster. 

14.  Michael Thomas on PUP to start camp. 550 days and counting

15.  Davenport also on PUP. Rinse and repeat 

16.  The Rams Super Bowl Rings… Holy S***

17.  Alternate helmets…. ALTERNATE HELMETS EVERYWHERE 

18.  Vince McMahon has officially retired. That’s a dirty old man 

19.  Inside the park grand slam?! WHAT????

20.  28-5 in a baseball game?! What happened to the mercy rule?? The Red Sox are incompetent 

21.  The rangers record lives!!!

22.  Alex Manoah talked trash to a batter after he struck him out and baseball people are furious with him.  How dare he have a personality in this sport? The nerve 


What to look out for next week


            Unfortunately, we’re in the dead period on the sport’s calendar.  It’s pretty much baseball and nothing else.  However, in baseball, keep an eye on the trade market with the trade deadline right around the corner.  We should start to see the rumor mill heat up.  Lastly, football is finally back.  Kinda.  Saints training camp starts Tuesday! Who Dat?


See y’all next week!

2025 LSU Week 3 Preview

By Erik Trosclair • September 12, 2025
When: Saturday, September 13th, 2025, 6:30 PM Where: The Real Death Valley, Baton Rouge, LA Channel: ABC Spread: LSU -7.5 O/U: 46.5 This will be the 72nd time these schools meet up in this storied rivalry. This game always has a story, a moment to remember, so be ready, football fans! Florida Gators The Gators enter this contest with a record of 1-1. Florida opened up the season with a 55-0 win over Long Island University, but the Gators dropped a game last week to a talented South Florida team. This Gator offense is led by quarterback DJ Lagway. LSU fans remember Lagway all too well from last season. On the season, Lagway is 38/51, with 342 passing yards and 4 TDs. Jadan Baugh is the leader in the backfield. The leading pass catchers on this team are Vernell Brown III, Eugene Wilson III, and Hayden Hansen. The Gator defense is a solid unit. Jaden Robinson and Myles Graham are the leading linebackers. Tyreak Sapp is the leader on the defensive line. LSU Tigers The Tigers are coming off of a "disappointing" victory against Louisiana Tech. The Tigers have a chance to bury the Gators' dreams for the season in this game. This game being in Death Valley helps out the Tigers tremendously. The Tigers better be ready to get on the Gators early and often because this is an upset Gator team with a big upset on the mind. KEYS TO THE GAME - Can the Tigers establish a running game? The leaders on this team need to get up. - Will the Tigers' defense keep up the red-hot start to the season? - Will Braelin Moore be back on the field? This is a mad Florida team who would love to upset the Tigers in this rivalry. Can the Tigers contain DJ Lagway? Fun Fact: Florida running back coach Jabar Juluke was born in New Orleans. He was the running back coach at LSU in 2016. Thank you for checking out my article. Follow me on X (the artist formerly known as Twitter) @eazytro
