Welcome to this week's In Case You Missed It!
A quick review of this week in sports
- Weekly Sandy Alcantara update: still the best pitcher in baseball
- The XFL is back! Again… again.
- Vegas, Seattle, Orlando, St. Louis, San Antonio, Arlington, Houston & DC. 3 texas teams huh?
- Fun fact: no active nba player has ever faced the kings in the playoffs
- The Celtics have emerged as a team trying to trade for KD. Question is: would he agree to go there? Lol couldn’t say that with a straight face
- Abolish Angel Hernandez
- Prayers to John Metchie!
- NFL+ is here. Just another streaming service to confuse everyone. Is the cable bundle about to make a comeback because these streaming costs are getting out of hand
- Kylers contract requires “4 hours of independent study time” lol that’s short (no pun intended) for our QB doesn’t watch film
- Those New Soldier field renovations are amazing
- Pistons brought back their green throwbacks!! They’re perfect!
- MLB trade rumors starting to heat up. Can’t wait to see the best players on the market somehow find their way to the Yankees or Dodgers….. baseball
- Chris Carson retiring from the NFL is sad. Injuries are a real mf
- Julio signing with Tampa… that offense will be terrifying for 3 games
- Mike Thomas won’t be on PUP long. WR1 is back and the league should be concerned
- Dennis Allen says Taysom’s role will be similar in that he’ll still get SOME snaps at QB, and uneducated fans will scream that that’s a bad idea
- Saints signed Malcom Brown for RB depth. God help us
- It’s only Tuesday… how about the news take chill pill eh?
- Mike hates Jeff Duncan
- Mike Trout diagnosed with a rare back condition. The baseball Gods are cruel
- Yankees trade for Andrew Benintendi. The rich get richer
- George Pickens is going to be the next great Steelers wide receiver. Book it
- There’s a clause in Zion’s contract that says he has to keep the sum of his weight and body fat percentage under 295. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen that before
- Eli Apple getting embarrassed by Chase in camp. Seems like they’re both in mid season form
- DK Metcalf getting his new deal before Drew Lock tanks his stats is a brilliant move
- And just like that, Kyler’s study clause is removed from his contract. I guess public ridicule can lead to anything
- It was a hell of a run kwon!!
- I saw that pic of Derrick Henry in the Eddie George tank top. I’m still not convinced Derrick Henry is a real person. Good lord
- Shohei was asked about potentially being traded. Let’s just take a minute and think about the absurdity of the potential haul that would require. The biggest haul in sports history
- Here come the Mariners
- Aaron Judge needs to be urine tested IMMEDIATELY this is getting out of hand
Well, that was the week in the sport's universe! In case you missed it, I hope you're all caught up now. See y'all next week.
A quick share helps us a lot!
