My hot take: Venus is one of the GOATs obviously. But this is getting a bit silly. These Grand Slams want a cheap ratings and ticket sales boost, while she continues to rack up losses. Helps nobody, honestly.
"I am now challenging the Las Vegas Aces to a $10 million one game contest. Their opponent now? Not even high school boys any more because they were afraid to play. Now up: an 8th grade boy’s team of my choice." - Outkick's Clay Travis on X

Paul George sounds pretty hyped to be in Boston. After his first visit to the Celtics facility, he said he’s ready to give it everything and is excited to wear the green. Let’s see how this chapter goes.
Garrett Nussmeier had a solid preseason debut. The Chiefs’ seventh-round rookie QB looked comfortable out there and made some nice plays. Way too early to judge, but it’s a good start for Nussmeier.
Shaq’s story about Yao Ming is still hilarious. He complimented Yao on a move, and Yao casually replied, “Thanks, my brotha.” That was the moment Shaq realized Yao had been understanding him the whole time.
