Gisele Bundchen does what any good wife does — care about the health of her husband. One thing she won’t do, however, is dictate when 40-year-old Tom Brady will retire from the NFL despite any concerns she may have about him continuing to play football. Bundchen has spoken in the past about concerns she has regarding the long-term effects that football can have on the body — particularly concussions. The 37-year-old-model-turned-author told the Wall Street Journal that it’s not her decision to make when it comes to the New England Patriots quarterback calling it a career. “It’s his decision and he knows it,” Bundchen sa...

Here’s How Kevin Cash Plans To Make Four-Man Rotation Work For Rays
It is no secret the Tampa Bay Rays are undergoing a pretty steep rebuild, and they’re not just rebuilding personnel, they’re rebuilding strategy. While some teams have tinkered with the idea of rolling with a six-man starting rotation, the Rays decided they are going to go a man short and use four. Instead of having a fifth starter, they’ll instead have multiple bullpen arms go through the lineup once apiece on the day the fifth starter ordinarily would go. “Our plan, we’re not going to five,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said, via ESPN. “We’re going to try to stay at four. We’re going to have some bullpen days in there. We’re ... NESN.com

The Cleveland Cavaliers star was asked Tuesday about the latest scandal to rock college hoops and cut straight to the chase in his answer. “The NCAA is corrupt,” James said, via ESPN.com. “We know that. Sorry, it’s going to make headlines, but it’s corrupt.” Last Friday’s report revealed a federal investigation into agents giving impermissible benefits to top college players at elite Division I schools. Apparently that didn’t surprise James, who believes the NCAA’s corruption is systematic. “I don’t know ... NESN.com

Paul George Selected To Replace DeMarcus Cousins In NBA All-Star Game
Paul George no longer is an All-Star snub. George was selected to replace New Orleans Pelicans star DeMarcus Cousins on LeBron James’ team after the center ruptured his left Achilles on Friday night. It will be George’s fifth All-Star appearance and first as a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder. The decision was made by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver as George received the most coaches’ votes out of any player not initially selected to the All-Star Game. “Obviously, I would have liked to make it under better circumstance — because of an injury I got in,” George said, per ESPN. “But needless to say, I’m happy for this to be my ...
