Today’s word of the day is ’prowl’ as in on the prowl as in Nuggets as in the Knicks as in playoff basketball. Nikola Jokic is incredible. He dominated the DPOY in Rudy Gobert.

Today’s word of the day is ’greedy’ as in the NFL as in schedule release as in kickoff games as in networks as in Tom Brady as in Patrick Mahomes. The NFL continues to just win every offseason. It’s ridiculous! LeBron James was wining it up at the Cavaliers playoff game last night. But it’s time to talk about Bronny James. Is he worth a draft pick? He was cleared medically by the NBA. The Boston Celtics took a 3-1 series lead over the Cavaliers. No Donovan Mitchell, no matter. What about the Mavericks blowing a late home lead against the Thunder? Hit your free throws! WNBA season is here. The Caitlin Clark era is here! Review: Rather. So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about which teams will be buyers and who will be sellers. This early!? MLB is on Roku. What does this say about the health of MLB broadcast rights?

One of the worst pitching innings in baseball happened after Skenes was removed. Kodai Senga injury update! The Yankees are heating up. Aaron Judge is heating up. Panic down. Seth Lugo is performing at an elite level for the Royals. Who saw that coming? The Knicks lost both road games to the Pacers. The Pacers blew them out the water in Game 4. Woof!

Today’s word of the day is ’anticipation’ as in the Pittsburgh Pirates as in Paul Skenes. His time has come. He throws gas. He could be the next great. Why are the Pirates calling him up now? Why not wait? Ippei Mizuhara will plead guilty to federal crimes. He used $17 million of Shohei Ohtani’s money to pay off gambling debts. What a wild case this has been. The New York Knicks have done it again! 2-0 series lead. Playoff basketball. Jalen Brunson is a bad man! And Nikola Jokic has won his 3rd MVP. Wasn’t even close. NPPOD. Review: Inglorious Basterds. It’s time to talk streaming bundles. Another day, another bundle. When will it end? The WNBA is going to have chartered flights for players. It’s a new thing for them. Good for them.

The calls were very close. Some of them seemed like a joke. Is the NBA behind this? The Timberwolves crushed the Nuggets. What a defensive effort. The reigning champs are down 2-0 now. Woof. Pat Riley gave his end-of-season presser on the Heat. He had some things to say about Jimmy Butler. Will Butler get an extension? Will the Heat make big changes? So You Wanna Talk to Samson!?
