NFL: Video of coach destroying everything goes viral

NFL Sunday was as striking as a sleeping pill, causing the Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator’s existential crisis to go viral.

Ken Dorsey, who finds himself in a dressing room deconstructing and guiding his own, lost his mind following the Bills’ first loss by smashing his headset and tablet.

Late in the 4th quarter, Isaiah McKenzie failed to get out of bounds to stop the clock on a Josh Allen pass, preventing the team from starting one last play.

So the game ended 21-19 in favor of the Miami Dolphins…and Allen reacted like he had just lost a Super Bowl.

So he consoled himself in the arms of his opponent!

Here’s a bonus statement fromMcKenzie after the duel, who was fully aware of his mistake.

Serena Williams sweated hard at her new job!

Serena Williams, newly retired, wasted no time finding a new job and this one seems to be very physically strenuous.

Serana shared a photo of herself following a “coaching” session at her daughter Olympia’s soccer practice and you can see how much she sweated.

“I showed up to Olympia’s first soccer practice. And she was so nervous she didn’t want to leave me. So they needed volunteers to be assistant coaches. Now I’m an assistant coach (when I can) and I clearly wasn’t prepared. I just went to relax and left looking like this. At least I have a Lincoln to take us to soccer practice! A modern day soccer mom!”

Lionel Messi was slapped in the face and called stupid by a teammate

Lionel Messi, recognized as one of the three greatest players in the world, received a Will Smith-like slap in the face from one of his Argentina teammates.

Rodrigo De Paul, a longtime friend of the PSG star, and Messi, verbally bickered and De Paul ended up serving a slap to Messi and then smiled widely.

De Paul even dropped a “you’re stupid, Leo”, causing Leandro Paredes to step in between the two men.

Was it a joke?

Were the two men simply having fun?

Super Bowl: Bye Pepsi and hello big changes for halftime!

The iconic Super Bowl halftime concert will change its face starting in 2023 as Apple Music is now the presenting sponsor replacing Pepsi.

Pepsi had been the presenting sponsor for the past decade, but the soft drink was outshone by… music, which is much more in keeping with the halftime show…

The Super Bowl halftime show is symbolic, and even individuals who don’t keep up with the NFL will position themselves in front of the TV to watch it.

It’s worth noting that last season’s halftime hit hard with colossal performances by Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem and 50 Cent .

Juraj Slafkovsky made some magic for Rafaël Harvey-Pinard

Juraj Slafkovsky didn’t get on the score sheet during the last tournament, but the power forward bounced back quickly in an intra-squad game on Friday.

Slaf pulled a rabbit out of his hat, like a magician, by serving a masterful pass to Quebec’s Rafaël Harvey-Pinard.

Arber Xhekaj, who has been the talk of the town since the start of the rookie camp, was once again the star of the show today. The powerful defenseman allowed himself to thread the needle and continue his rise to a possible position with the Tricolore.

The youngsters are making their mark on the Sainte-Flanelle, showing that the work started a few months ago is paying off. For Matin St-Louis, the important thing is to establish a culture within his group and so far, it is easy to understand the type of environment that is being established.

Add to that, in an interview with Jean-Charles Lajoie, MSL made one thing so important clear:

“I can’t predict the number of wins this year, but I can guarantee that the team will be ready for the first game. That I can guarantee!”

F1: Red Bull chief rips Lewis Hamilton

Red Bull team boss Christian Horner goes for Lewis Hamilton.

The attack concerns the bitter rivalry between Lewis and Max Verstappen, when, according to the husband of former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, Hamilton has never praised Max’s talent.

In fact, Horner delivered a falsehood, which will further enliven the feud between RB, Horner and Verstappen and Mercedes, Toto Wolff and Hamilton.

Yet, if we roll back the reel to 2020, Hamilton said Verstappen has an uncommon talent:

“He has such a great talent, he is very difficult to beat!” he said at the time.

Remember that the rivalry between Hamilton and Verstappen increased a notch during the last Grand Prix last season, when Verstappen took a controversial victory in Abu Dhabi to take the Formula 1 title.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. explodes a ball coming at nearly 100 mph

During the Toronto Blue Jays-Philadelphia Phillies game, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. catapulted a ball 429 feet from home plate. This powerful slap was the 30th long ball for number 27 of the Jays.

This little ball with red stitching was propelled at 99 mph by Seranthony Domínguez and was placed in the outside corner, but Vladdy ‘s quick hands lit up the stadium.

https://twitter.com/TVASports/status/1572760860204093440

While we’re on the subject of Vladimir, this Smucker’s Jam & Jif Peanut Butter commercial with George Springer is truly comical!

Aaron Judge’s 60th home run ball created pure chaos

Aaron Judge catapulted his 60th pitch of the season into the stands Tuesday night, tying Babe Ruth ‘s mark and moving him closer to Roger Maris‘ 61.

That ball picked up between center field and left field, and a free-for-all ensued immediately. Everyone wanted this historic ball, including the Yankees, MLB and Aaron Judge.

Here is the rumble in question following this Judge bomb:

https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1572610449832812544

We’re talking about a bunch of humans bickering over a ball they didn’t walk away with. Then Mike Kessler, the individual who retrieved the ball asked for some autographs and a stick in return for this HISTORICAL piece… Just this???

https://twitter.com/CUNYAC/status/1572682140395114496

We’re talking about a historic ball here, so it’s worth its weight in gold especially since Judge is about to sign a monster deal.

Floyd Mayweather v. Conor McGregor, the rematch!

Floyd “Money” Mayweather spoke about his second (rematch) fight against Conor McGregor, indicating that he would prefer an exhibition fight.

He is, however, open to discussing whether this one should actually become a professional fight, which would add a win or loss to his immaculate record of 50 wins, 27 by knockout, in 50 professional fights.

If all the pieces fall into place, this second duel should take place somewhere in 2023, according to Mr. Money himself, who will face Mikuru Asakura on September 25 in Japan.

Following this fight, will he say the same thing he said about McGregor after the Notorious fight?

(It was not nice)

Juraj Slafkovsky destroys another stationary bike!

Juraj Slafkovsky is a monster, no less.

When he jumps on a stationary bike for physical tests, he practically destroys it because he is so powerful .

https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1572707496871231489

Rest in peace dear stationary bike.

The Montreal Canadiens’ first choice, only 18 years old, has all the assets to carve out a position to start the season… despite a more quiet camp for prospects offensively.

Remember that the Montreal Canadiens launched their training camp on Wednesday and as usual, the players were invited to the physical tests.

Even if Juraj Slafkovsky still hasn’t played any official game in the NHL, he has a rating of 78 at NHL23, which is quite high.
