Oh wow! AB joking with teammates and working hard at his craft. Some FANS made it seem like he'd be pissing in cheerios and the locker room would be fractured over his failed extension talks. Smh
Here is more of #Magic forward Franz Wagner shooting alongside Jase Richardson, Wendell Carter Jr., Anthony Black, and Desmond Bane after practice:
(Jonathan Isaac was passing to his teammates during the drill.)
Call me crazy, but maybe we should give out youth I.D.’s in order to ride an e-bike or e-scooter in public. To get it, you go through an easy course just telling you the laws.
If a youth gets caught doing something illegal, their ID can be suspended or taken. If the I.D. had already been taken, their parents get in trouble.

How many Simpsons in a Caminero? 🤔
Chander Simpson (bunt) vs. Junior Caminero (home run trot).

This was the first time in 31 years that the AL’s two lowest-payroll teams played for the pennant.
The Rays just beat the Guardians to reach their first World Series since 2020.

Sorry Grizzlies you don’t have the best Cam Boozer athlete in the world. That is Cam Booser with the Rays.

The Magic remain big fans of Anthony Black and do not want to trade him, per @TheSteinLine

- Even though it's Windhorst, still should be taken with a grain of salt
- AB & his team were never asking for high 20s or 30
- FO has the leverage with RFA
- If AB will accept 22ish I bet it gets done
- They have until Mon 6PM.. this is called negotiation.
As someone who just got into college playoffs. I feel like this is way overboard. Keep the conference championships
The 24-team College Football Playoff likely eliminates conference championships, @PeteNakos reports❌

Great read for any sports fan. I know a lot of people hate on the Savannah Bananas but they got it right when it comes to fan experience/pricing
I'd consider me and my wife in the upper echelon of diehard sports fans. We plan our lives around our teams, including having full season tickets to the Lightning and a quarter season plan to the Rays.
We make it a point to not schedule any vacations during the Stanley Cup Playoffs window or MLB Postseason. It's that serious.
We chose to not opt in to this year's Rays postseason tickets because of the cost. Full stop.
Could we have done it? Sure. Would it have been the wisest decision to make? I don't think so.
The cost of our seats increased by approximately 103% for the ALDS, 338% for the ALCS, and a mind-boggling 790% for the World Series. We haven't even gotten to parking yet.
That increased by approximately 233% for the ALDS, 333% for the ALCS, and 400% for the World Series.
I'm well aware that prices increase for the playoffs and that the league sets those, but the amount these increased is astronomical and out of reach for a large percentage of fans.
Single game prices are even more expensive, when you consider Season Members are offered their seats at a discounted rate.
Because of this, we only purchased tickets to Game 1 of the ALDS and Game 1 of the ALCS.
I hate that we can't be in attendance for every game, but making a foolish (and emotional) financial decision isn't the answer. I can't begin to imagine how out of reach this is for families with children.
Fandom isn't defined by asses in seats or if you're willing to go into debt. MLB and sports throughout North America need to look in the mirror and stop the greedy profiteering.
Ragging on fans for choosing work and essentials over tickets and arrears only makes you look bad.
