Month: June 2023

Titans rookie Will Levis entered the NFL with a reputation for something other than football after the ex-Kentucky quarterback went viral in 2022 for discussing (and demonstrating) his bizarre “habit” of drinking mayo in his coffee.

Fast forward nearly a year later, and the second-round pick has found himself going viral, once more, for sharing another gross, food-related admission.

Levis, again, disgusted fans far and wide as he shared the punishment for his fantasy football league’s loser last season during a chat with NBC Sports fantasy football guru Matthew Berry. After sharing that he’s never come in last in his 12 years playing fantasy, the 23-year-old QB revealed the cringey last-place “prize”: eating an entire pack of uncooked hot dogs. … Cue the puke emoji.

“The last one was we had to make him eat a whole pack, I think a dozen, uncooked hotdogs. Go on, like Instagram Live and, like, eat them in front of everybody. We felt like that was a good one,” said Levis in a clip shared Thursday on social media.

As if the nasty punishment wasn’t enough, the bonus of having to do it in public surely added more painful detail to make fans cringe even further. But, in case you’re still wondering if the loser followed through, Levis reported that they, somehow, managed to avoid their fate.

“He didn’t man up and do it,” he said.

Between having two wild, food-related headlines to his name and sliding in the draft, it’s clear that Levis will enter his first NFL season with plenty of attention in one way or another outside of his battle for a spot on Tennessee’s depth chart.

Given that he is now in the NFL, it’ll certainly be interesting to see what Levis and his league cooks up this coming fantasy season, considering the first-year signal-caller may possibly contribute to his downfall should he end up as QB1 at some point in 2023.

Heat star Jimmy Butler walked into Ball Arena seeming more than confident to take on the Nuggets in Game 1 of the 2023 NBA Finals.

Butler appeared calm and reserved as he walked down the hallway to the locker room. However, he had a little smirk on his face, as captured in a video from ClutchPoints’s Tomer Azarly, and that may have to do with what his shirt said. 

If it wasn’t clear already, Butler made sure to remind everyone what the Heat’s goal is.

The front of the six-time All-Star’s shirt read “Take Us There,” while the message on the back was simple: “Four More.”

The Heat have had quite the journey to reach this year’s Finals, becoming just the second No. 8 seed to ever reach the championship series. Butler and company are now just four wins away from sealing the deal and lifting the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

Miami lost their first play-in tournament game vs. the Hawks, then won their second vs. the Bulls to reach the playoffs. From there, they won 4–1 over the top-seeded Bucks and 4–2 against the Knicks. The Heat started off strong vs. the Celtics, going up 3–0, but Boston pushed it to a Game 7 before Miami closed out the series on the road to put itself in position to play for a title. 

The news that Fox Sports 1’s Undisputed co-host Shannon Sharpe is set to leave the program after reaching a buyout agreement with the company dropped on Wednesday night, and people are already starting to guess where the former NFL star could end up next.

A fellow sports talk show host, Pat McAfee, had an interesting idea for where Sharpe could land next while speaking on his Thursday episode of the Pat McAfee Show.

McAfee is slated to bring his popular YouTube show to ESPN this fall, and he would very much like it if Sharpe joined him there.

“Shannon is going to be in a really good spot here, I think, and I hope to hell he comes to ESPN,” McAfee said. “If Shannon Sharpe is to be there, and you start talking about like what a day could look like, that’s f—— awesome.”

McAfee didn’t necessarily promote the idea that Sharpe could be joining his show in the future, but instead just ESPN in general. 

Sharpe was a mainstay on Fox Sports 1 from 2016 until this week, working alongside former ESPN host Skip Bayless. The tension seemingly built between the two co-hosts, especially after Bayless posted a controversial tweet after Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest on the field on Jan. 2. Bayless stood by his tweet, despite Sharpe’s urging him to take it down.

The United States under-20 men’s national team is three wins away from lifting its first ever FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Emmanuel Acho, Joy Taylor, LeSean McCoy, and Ric Bucher debate if the Cleveland Browns are being overlooked heading into the 2023 NFL season.

Arizona Diamondbacks’ Corbin Carroll hit a walk-off RBI single to secure their 5-4 win against the Colorado Rockies.

It’s not shocking that the Rangers are suddenly competing after spending roughly the GDP of Samoa on free agents. But take a look under the hood and you’ll do a double take.
