All Rise: Yankees’ Aaron Judge Accused Of Being Closet Red Sox Fan

Share this: Red Sox fans would love nothing more than to see Aaron Judge in a Red Sox uniform. And now, their wishes have been granted. Well, sort of. A picture recently emerged on Twitter that shows a man, who sure looks a lot like the New York Yankees rookie slugger, wearing a Red Sox T-shirt. We can’t state with absolutely certainty that this is Judge, but it seems like the real deal. Obviously, this means Judge is bound for Boston once he becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2023, at which point he’ll begin his quest to shatter all of Ted Williams’ team home-run records. Plus, while he bides his time, Judge can work on his addition to the Boston outfield’s “win, dance, repeat”

J.J. Watt Takes Pretty Blatant Shot At Lonzo Ball, Big Baller Brand Shoes

Share this: J.J. Watt is a man of the people. Just look at the price of his new shoes. The Houston Texans defensive end has a new training shoe that will debut early Friday morning for $99. While that number might seem like a lot, it’s nowhere close to the $495 price tag for Lonzo Ball’s Big Baller Brand shoes. And Watt made sure to point that out on Twitter. And Watt wasn’t done there. Watt likely was referencing the fact that Ball wore Nike shoes instead of his ZO2 Primes during the Lakers’ NBA Summer League game on Wednesday. So, could we have a new feud to go along with the war of words between the family patriarch, LaVar Ball, and, well, a lot of people? Thumbnail

Bruins Notes: Tuukka Rask Comes Up Clutch In Game 5 Win; B’s Penalty Kill Shines

Share this: Tuukka Rask receives a lot of undue criticism, but the Boston Bruins goaltender stepped up in the clutch and saved his team Friday night at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa. It took more than four hours, but the B’s won Game 5 of their first-round Stanley Cup playoff series against the Ottawa Senators in double overtime on a Sean Kuraly goal to force a Game 6 on Sunday. Kuraly’s two goals obviously played a huge part in the 3-2 Bruins win, but Rask deserves an equal amount of credit for his performance. Rask made many tremendous saves, and two of best came after regulation. One robbed Senators forward Viktor Stalberg in the first overtime period. Rask extended his pad to make a great

Chicago Tribune Trolls Aaron Rodgers In Tweet About Breakup With Olivia Munn

Share this: NFL rivalries don’t take a break for the offseason. If you didn’t hear the news Friday, Aaron Rodgers and Olivia Munn reportedly broke up after three years together. And the Chicago Tribune made sure it didn’t take long for Bears fans to revel in the Green Bay Packers quarterback’s misery. The newspaper snuck some pretty amazing shade into a tweet about the news, mentioning only Munn’s name and referring to Rodgers simply as the actress’ “boyfriend.” Ouch. We can’t say we blame Chicagoans for being salty toward Rodgers, as he owns a 14-4 record against the Bears in his career since 2008, and none of those losses came in the same season. Plus, the Bears will have Mike Glennon under center this coming season

Johnny Manziel Tells TMZ He Popped The Question, Is Engaged To Bre Tiesi

Share this: Johnny Manziel apparently won’t be ringless for long. The former NFL quarterback might never get a Super Bowl ring at this point, but he’ll soon have some bling of a different kind. Yes, that’s right: Manziel told TMZ Sports on Friday that he asked his girlfriend, Bre Tiesi, to marry him, and that she said yes. “When you find a girl as amazing as I did that saved me from where I was in my life, you absolutely put a ring on it,” Manziel told TMZ Sports. According to TMZ Sports, Manziel proposed in Paris, and it appears he asked with a pretty big diamond. “I’m in shock. I couldn’t imagine a day without (Johnny). I’m so glad I never have to,” Tiesi added. The

NFL Rumors: Jay Cutler, Jets Have Mutual Interest In Free Agency

Share this: No, this isn’t a joke. The Chicago Bears released Jay Cutler on Thursday, the same day NFL free agency began, and fans and pundits immediately pointed toward the New York Jets as a potential destination for the polarizing quarterback. Well, it appears that chatter isn’t just internet speculation. Cutler and the Jets have expressed mutual interest, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport. It’s unclear at this point whether the sides have been in touch, but New York’s level of interest likely boils down to whether the organization thinks he’ll have a positive impact off the field in addition to whatever he provides between the lines. “The Jets do have some interest in Jay Cutler. And I’m told he has interest in them
