The University of Miami Hurricanes unveiled a new version the most famous piece of jewelry in college football – the turnover chain. The chain underwent an overhaul in the offseason and the new chain features the state of Florida made of roughly 1,900 white sapphires. The school’s logo is made up of 700 green sapphires and 700 orange sapphires. The chain is passed between teammates as a reward for a defensive player who causes a turnover. GAUDY GOODNESS

After a rough start to the season, Tom Brady claimed his first win of his career as a member of another team besides the New England Patriots (NFL). His Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Carolina Panthers yesterday and his family, including his wife Gisele Bündchen, celebrated in Bucs jerseys at home. A MILESTONE WORTH CELEBRATING
Coaches’ corner
The buffest player on the PGA (Professional Golfers Association) Tour, Bryson DeChambeau won his first U.S. Open yesterday. DeChambeau, who has become a bit of the villain on the Tour, showed up after the COVID break with a newly bulked up physique (we're talking 40 pounds heavier) that had everyone talking. But don’t let the tough guy exterior fool you, he burst into tears when he was surprised by a video call from his parents after his win yesterday. VICTORY IS SWEET
