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!

Team Stats (Trail Blazers at Pelicans) Final Score: 120-143 Rebounds: 419-57 Assists: 27-36 Blocks: 7-8 Steals: 5-10 Turnovers: 15-8 Stat Leaders Scoring Leaders: Shaedon Sharpe, 21; Trey Murphy III, 24 Rebound Leaders: Kris Murray, 9; Yves Missi, Saddiq Bey, 8 Assist Leaders: Deni Avdija, 6; Derik Queen, 7 My Player of the Game: Derik Queen Chrissy's Key Takeaways * The Pelicans have won their fourth game of the season. Yay ! * Jordan Poole was back tonight and he made a world of difference. His three-point shooting, confidence, and leadership were a ton of help. * Derik Queen is a problem for all other 29 teams in this league. This kid has a vision that hasn't been seen in any recent rookies, especially for a center. * Bryce McGowens was the second-leading scorer in this game with 23 points. He's stepped up in a big way. * In surprising news, Zion Williamson is questionable for Sunday's game at the Chicago Bulls. This is the first time in what seems like years that Zion's health is actually improving much sooner than projected. Whether this is a sign of Zion pushing himself or James Borrego pushing him, it's nice to see. Follow @TheKneaux on X, and follow me there too, @SportsChrissy.
