data-mm-id=”_yaryryaya”>San Diego Padres general manager A.J. Preller continued his wild acquisition spree on Monday, signing Korean Baseball star Ha-seong Kim. The 25-year-old infielder starred for the Kiwoom Heroes in 2020 and is an absolute blast to watch. His prodigious power and MLB-ready bat flips will fit right in on the Padres. Kim blasted 30 home runs, had 109 RBIs, scored 111 runs and stole 23 bases while hitting .306 in 2020. He immediately became one of the best free agent infielders available when Kiwoom posted him for MLB teams to negotiate with. The Padres landed him, adding another exciting player to what was baseballs most fun team to watch last season. As stated, Kim is really fun. Check out all 30 of his home runs from 2020 below. His home run swing is thing of beaut…

data-mm-id=”_dsf236xyh”>On Tuesday night, baseball fans got the full Shohei Ohtani experience. The Los Angeles Angels superstar threw 6.1 innings, allowing one run on four hits while striking out 10 while going 3-for-3 at the plate with two solo home runs. At this point, five-plus seasons into his MLB career, I feel confident in saying Shohei Ohtani is the greatest baseball player of all time. In the 147-year history of Major League Baseball we have simply never seen anyone do what Ohtani is doing. The man hits majestic 450-foot home runs, then goes out and hits triple digits with his fastball. Oh, did we mention he's also one of baseball's fastest players? Now before you jump down my throat, let me clarify something: I'm not saying Ohtani will have the greatest career e…

data-mm-id=”_333g3q4eh”>The Taylor Swift phenomena has deeply permeated the fabric of NFL coverage over the last two and a half weeks. If you tuned into Sunday night's New York Jets-Kansas City Chiefs game, for example, you got at least a dozen shots of Swift in a booth watching her paramour Travis Kelce surrounded by similarly famous individuals. Many feel the league and its broadcast partners have gone a bit overboard leaning into the Swiftie craze and the extent to which they do so has already launched conspiracy theories and accusations of "bad looks." On Wednesday's episode of the New Heights podcast, Jason Kelce asked his brother Travis about the coverage Swift has been getting during NFL games. The Chiefs tight end said they were going overboard "a littl…

data-mm-id=”_2f0dsekvv”>Joe Mixon scored a touchdown early in the second quarter of the Cincinnati Bengals –Jacksonville Jaguars game on Monday Night Football in Week 13. Mixon was able to keep his legs churning and his knees off the ground as he tied the game and then celebrated with a nice choreographed dance with multiple teammates. And at the end of the celebration, as everyone headed back to the bench, tackle Orlando Brown Jr. shouted "jackass" into the camera. "JACKASS" 😂 pic.twitter.com/VATEZgFnOl— CJ Fogler account may or may not be notable (@cjzero) December 5, 2023It is unclear who Brown was calling a jackass, but you really have to wonder if they were watching. You would think if a football player was going to call someone a jackass during…

data-mm-id=”_014v7nwa3″>The Jimmy Kimmel-Aaron Rodgers feud continues, after Rodgers suggested Kimmel was sweating out the release of new files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Kimmel had his say Monday night, Rodgers answered it on Tuesday. But Kimmel's good friend, Howard Stern injected himself into that situation on Tuesday. He blasted Rodgers for messing with Kimmel. Here's what he had to say:Jimmy Kimmel's good friend Howard Stern "got really pissed off" about Aaron Rodgers pic.twitter.com/ViQZjzjlAs— Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) January 9, 2024A lot of people agree with Stern. Rodgers implying Kimmel was associated with a pedophile crossed a line. ESPN and Pat McAfee both had to issue statements about what the four-time NFL MVP said. On Tuesday, Rodge…

data-mm-id=”_f4m9prtqi”>Charles Barkley has joined Instagram after spending years insisting that is something he will not be exploring. On last night's Inside The NBA, he explained he was caving for "business purposes," which is actually the only reason anyone should be on social media. Shaquille O'Neal, the consummate business man, offered some helpful advice to improve his buddy's engagement.By putting #onlyfans on all the posts. Barkley was as confounded by the situation as when he encounters the name of a sixth-year player in the league he covers. Essentially, he needed to know who Only Fans play for.Shaq trying to get Charles Barkley to promo OnlyFans when he tweets 💀 pic.twitter.com/5DcquMV00T— Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) March 1, 2024&#03…
