Day 2 is where you find value - lot of high quality guys still on the board
VATICAN CITY (AP) — Black smoke pours out of the Sistine Chapel chimney, indicating no pope was elected on the conclave's 1st ballot.
All 32 NFL player reps were on a call last night to discuss the next NFLPA executive director. It’s shaping up to be a two-man race: JC Tretter, who has majority support, and Don Davis. There’s other names, but these are the lead candidates, per sources.
This is not the message to be sending. The WHL will slowly bleed out and lose power, prestige along with all their top players by mocking those who leave to play NCAA as soft. NHL teams LOVE the top NCAA schools as model hockey development programs. 1/2
In a recent interview on @TPS_Guy’s “The Pipeline Show” WHL commissioner Dan Near concedes that the NCAA is “business class” but cautions that “playing a Friday and Saturday schedule and then pumping iron and drinking smoothies all week” will make you soft and ill-prepared for…
New at @CBSSports: JC Tretter is resigning from the NFLPA. In an hourlong Sunday conversation, he clears up "mistruths" about his tenure and explains why he's leaving the union with the interim leadership role almost in his grasp cbssports.com/nfl/news/jc-tr…
Ahead: @MicheleSteele with sports! The @NFLPA scandal. And, who are so many @NFL rookies declining to sign yet? And—2nd half of the baseball season. Uh, @Cubs anyone?
Pretty perfect to remember Lee Elia before a Friday day game.
Michele's the best—and was the only other person asking questions with me during the infamous On To Cincinnati press conference. She's tough, and a real reporter, and I know she'll be great in whatever's next.

Michele Steele was doing standups from Paul Brown Stadium the afternoon of the Bengals' Super Bowl 56 send-off. We took a shot in the dark and sent her a tweet asking if she'd come on for a quick segment. Within minutes, she'd not only replied. but was on air with us, and was…

What is the WNBA’s worst-run organization? According to the players: Chicago. “They’re still practicing in a rec center. That’s not … ideal.”
If you're in Indy this week for WNBA All-Star, def stop by the monument to the USS Indianapolis. It's shaped like a battleship and tells the whole story - out of 900 who survived the torpedo, only 300 or so were alive after shark attacks, starvation, thirst...
One of Hollywood's great monologues: the USS Indianapolis speech in JAWS.
The number 1 thing about diana taurasi as a commentator is that she is never boring
wow diana taurasi just said on the ESPYS red carpet 1) she doesn’t miss playing 2) but confirmed she could still drop 40 on anyone lmaoooooooooo
Feels like BB has something to prove - especially after not winning without Brady, not getting an NFL HC position and the ongoing distraction around UNC/Jordon Hudson…
This is starting to feel like Jerry and Jimmy, isn't it? espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
It's at least a little surprising to see Bill Belichick go on the record to publicly push back on Patriots owner Robert Kraft's comments—since what he said on @Edelman11's podcast he's said a million times before. You be the judge ... espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

Thanks Kev! Fun conversation - not surprisingly for one of the most thorough football reporters around, he went into the ARCHIVES on this one. Covered everything but my debut in Costco magazine …

Best guy ever... Happy birthday Bubba!
Happy birthday to hockey legend Barry Melrose, who played, coached and analyzed the game for 50 years - including a remarkable 27 as a top NHL analyst for ESPN, first joining the network in 1996. 'Barry's Bistro' remains one of the great SportsCenter segments. 🏒
