On This Day…

⛸️ Let’s Talk Figure Skating!

We talked mainstream baseball yesterday, so only fitting that we discuss Figure Skating today!

On this day in 1991, the World Ladies’ Figure Champion was won by Kristi Yamaguchi! A big day for ice and the world of pro skates as well!

Today’s Trivia

🧠 Test your sports knowledge…

Yesterday’s Trivia Answer: B. Scottie Scheffler! Who else would have won last year’s Players Championship? If someone asks about a 2024 event on TOUR, you say Scottie, whatever the question, and you’ll probably get it right!

Before We Dive In…

Sunday Thought Bubble

🏀 JB Stands Up For His Guys

The world of bashing refs is just something you don’t see that often anymore. Whether it’s just because of all of the ridiculous fines you get for opening mouth or something else, people don’t like messing with zebras!

Last night the Pistons took on the OKC Thunder in a grind it out high scoring SLUGFEST. The Thunder were able to win behind SGA’s 48 points, but what Pistons Head Coach JB Bickerstaff told the media afterwards was that the reffing was “DISGUSTING”

You don’t see this anymore, so anytime we do, we have to stop and watch some of the fireworks. After seeing this clip, it’s not hard to see why the players for this guy!

Link to see all of the fireworks!

The Hot Stove

⚡️ QUICK-FIRE!

• 🏀 Some big boys fall! Others rise to the top! (1) Duke (who won their record-extending 23rd ACC title btw), (2) Houston, and (6) St. John’s were able to take care of their respective conferences. Heartbreaking ends for (3) Auburn and (7) Michigan State after failing to win the ‘almost’ big one! Just a handful of games left before Bracket Sunday!

• ⛳️ Exactly what we all thought after 3 Days at The Players! The Top 4 are Spaun, Cauley, Smalley, and Glover! Unreal moving day that could see these guys take the lead well into Day 4! Akshay Bhatia, Rory, and Corey Conners all sit behind the top 4 ready to pounce!

• 🏈 Under the Radar TRADE! I like this one! The Minnesota Vikings just acquired Jordan Mason from the San Francisco 49ers! I’ll tell you what, the Vikings are doing everything they can to either get JJ ready or make one last SPLASH play in the offseason.

• 🎾 American Jack Draper was able to defeat 2-time Indian Wells champ Carlos Alcaraz in a really whacky game. Draper won in three sets, 6-1, 0-6, 6-4! He now reaches the final where he will play Holger Rune for everything!
