Sources: The #Panthers have received calls on Pro Bowl DT Derrick Brown, but the message has been that he isn’t being moved. Teams have tried to respond to the Jeffery Simmons trade, but players of that caliber haven’t been available.

Josh Jacobs got his right hand caught in the defenders face mask. I’m curious if it’s his hand or his fingers. It almost looks like one of his fingers snaps.

🚨🚨THIS IS AWESOME🚨🚨 Las Vegas #Raiders superstar punter AJ Cole’s wife shared a behind-the-scenes video of the food he brings home from the team’s facility. Cole showed off an INSANE dinner haul: • Chicken & beef lettuce wraps • Korean fried chicken • Kimchi fried rice • Brussels sprouts & broccoli • Caesar salad Cole said that fitting everything into one bag was his best Tetris work ever. This is a really cool look at how #NFL teams feed their players and families. 🤯🤯🤯

The Hornets’ front office, multiple coaching staffs, and outdated media spent YEARS painting LaMelo as “unserious” and “not a winning player.” Now, surrounded by a battle-tested, playoff-caliber culture, he’s exposing those lies while ELEVATING that very culture with his ball movement, basketball genius, and now… ELITE DEFENSE. The problem was never LaMelo.

My momma so strict when I was younger she would ask me what i wanted to watch for movie night and if i picked a comedy she would say “Jasmine it’s too late to be laughing”

I got a chance to speak to Keith after the podcast and it was all love. I know my words offended some people and I apologize for that. What I said and what I meant were two different things. I could’ve done a better job getting my point across. Toni

I put my mom in charge of Halloween candy and she came back with some jelly beans…talmbout well I like them! Girl you’re 60!

CLASS ACT: When #Panthers star QB Cam Newton got into a heated exchange with an #NFL referee during a game. After calming down, Cam personally apologized to the official and then publicly apologized AGAIN during his postgame press conference.

Eleven years before Michael Jordan, Nike gave NBA star Spencer Haywood 10% of the company. While Haywood was on a road trip, his agent sold the whole 10% stake for $100,000 in cash—just to collect his $10,000 fee. In the video below, Haywood is asked if he is still friends with the man who sold it. His answer: "Yes." In 1973, Haywood was 24 and averaging 29 points a game in Seattle. Phil Knight came to him and asked him to wear his new shoe. Knight didn't have the cash to match Converse. So he offered Haywood stock instead. "First of all, I was young, too, and I'm thinking: livestock? What are you talking about? Stocks," Haywood says. Haywood took the stock. His agent had a problem. An agent gets 10%. Ten percent of stock in a tiny shoe company couldn't pay his bills. Ten percent of $100,000 in cash was $10,000 in his pocket right away. So the agent kept telling Haywood the shoe would never work. At the time, Nike only made running shoes for Steve Prefontaine. When Haywood ran down the court, defenders stepped on his heel and popped the shoe right off his foot. Before leaving for a road trip, Haywood gave in. "I said, 'Okay, man, I give you the power of attorney. Let me just go play. I got to really focus on this game now because this is my chance.'" When Haywood came back, the stock was gone. "He had sold that sh*t," Haywood says. "He said, 'Man, I got the cash right here — 100,000.'" Matt Barnes asks him what that 10% of Nike would be worth. "It was up around 2.7 billion," Haywood says. "Years ago." At Nike's peak, 10% was worth over $8.6 billion. The case for the agent: in 1973, Nike was a tiny Oregon running-shoe company, and the shoes literally fell off Haywood's feet during games. Could you stay friends with a man who cost you $2.7 billion?
