Get On Your Feet

The NFL owner dishing the dirt, Ryan Reynolds + ESPN, Peyton Manning talks 'Bama and this week's Tailgate Treat.

Friday is taking center stage.

Standing ovation,
The Last Night’s Game

NFL (National Football League)

"The NFL is a mafia...All the owners hate each other." Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder is prepared to come out swinging and release dirt on fellow NFL owners and the league's commissioner if they try to vote him out at next week's league meetings. Snyder's status is in question because of an ongoing Congressional investigation into the Commanders as a hostile workplace. (Don't worry, he also sent a nasty gram to the members of the House Oversight Committee too). BACKED INTO A CORNER

Short and Sweet

  • Surprise! Former Cy Young-winning pitcher Randy Johnson (MLB - Major League Baseball) is an NFL photographer. His company logo is an ode to the bird he destroyed when it flew in front of a fastball.

  • The true crimes edition of a fishing tournament that landed two fishermen with charges of cheating, attempted grand theft and possessing criminal tools, as well as a first-degree misdemeanor charge of unlawful ownership of wild animals.

  • Amped for the playoffs, the Washington Ferries renamed their boats after Seattle Mariners (MLB) players and personnel.

  • The game of the week in college football is between Alabama and Tennessee. Both are undefeated for the first time since 1989.

Before We Go

If you're a fan of "Welcome to Wrexham," the docuseries on actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney buying a low-tier European soccer team, life is about to get exciting. ESPN2 will air a Wrexham qualifier game on Saturday morning. But this isn't for a World Cup or anything, just a game between a fifth-tier and six-tier clubs. BIG DEAL

Tom Brady bought a team and so did LeBron. Pickleball has gone mainstream. Here's why pickleball is taking over the nation. GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN

Tailgate Treat

This week's Tailgate Treat is a treat that's worth the trick. YUM

Inhale, Exhale

A new F1 champion is crowned, fallout from the NWSL scandal and why Mets fans booed Emma Stone.

This is your reminder to breathe. Think of something that makes you smile.

A little pep in your step,
The Last Night's Game Team

NWSL (National Women’s Soccer League)

We're seeing the first significant fallout from the reports of a toxic and disturbing culture created by the NWSL's (National Women's Soccer League) leadership and ownership. Alaska Airlines pulled their sponsorships from two teams, saying in a statement:

"We are taking an immediate next step to redirect Alaska Airlines' Timbers and Thorns FC sponsorship funds this quarter to the National Women's Soccer League Players Association 'Support the Players Emergency Trust' and to youth sports in the Portland community." PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS

Short and Sweet

  • Max Verstappen won his second consecutive F1 (Formula One) championship, but no one knew.

  • The Golden State Warriors (NBA - National Basketball Association) are off to a rough start after a video leaked of Draymond Green punching teammate Jordan Poole.

  • Repeat after us - "gross motor instability." The NFL (National Football League) updated its concussion protocol after a rough past few weeks.

  • Brian Robinson Jr. of the Washington Commanders (NFL) made his rookie debut yesterday to a standing ovation after being shot twice in an attempted robbery six weeks ago.

Before We Go

The baseball playoffs are in full swing, but here they are summarized.

They rally the crowd and scare the children (and sometimes adults). These are the strangest mascots in college sports. READ

Giddy Up

We’re not in Kansas anymore, LeBron wants to buy into a Vegas team, baseball is getting wild and this week's Tailgate Treat.

Look at you riding into the weekend confident in any conversation.

Howdy partner,
The Last Night’s Game

College Football

Before the season started, everyone expected ESPN "College GameDay" to be at this week's big games, like the Red River Rivalry (OU/Texas) or BYU/Notre Dame in Las Vegas. Still, Texas, Notre Dame and OU are all struggling. So GameDay is headed to Lawrence, KS, for a game between two undefeated teams TCU/Kansas. This is the first time GameDay has ever been in Kansas.

Mantei Te'o will join the NBC broadcast team in Las Vegas for the weekend Notre Dame - BYU game. The former Notre Dame and NFL player recently captivated audiences in a Netflix series “Untold: The Girlfriend Who Didn't Exist."

Before We Go

It's the start of the MLB (Major League Baseball) postseason, and things are going to get wild. Literally. The new format has 12 teams and a three-game wild-card round guaranteed to bring excitement to the game.

The San Diego Padres and Tampa Bay Rays are trying to win their first World Series, as are the Seattle Mariners, who are the only franchise never to play in a World Series. BATTER UP
