Dallas Mavericks rookie Coooper Flagg won the NBA Rookie of the Year Award in a close race with former Duke teammate and current Charlotte Hornets

The Los Angeles Rams shocked the sports world by drafting QB Ty Simpson with the 13th pick in last weekend's NFL Draft and the more they try to explain their process, the less sense it seems to make.

The San Antonio Spurs eliminated the Portland Trailblazers from the NBA Playoffs last night and DP just can't get enough of Victor Wembanyama.

Plastic is now so prevalent in our lives that it is very difficult to reduce our ingestion of microplastics and associated toxic chemicals, but here are some actions we can take:

San Antonio Spurs C Victor Wembanyama let his frustrations get the better of him and was ejected for throwing a vicious elbow in the 2nd quarter of their Game 4 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, and while DP agrees he is getting roughed up, he proposes an old school solution for the Spurs to protect their superstar and keep him on the court.

LSU HC Lane Kiffin is getting roundly criticized for comments made in a Vanity Fair interview where he claimed recruits refused to come to Ole Miss due to its lack of diversity and DP has only one question for Martin Luther Kiffin: what did you do to change it? And Kiffin’s predictable tone-deaf apology isn’t cutting it.

Patriots HC Mike Vrabel is still dealing with the fallout from his alleged relationship with Dianna Russini and the NFL just thrust him into the spotlight as they announced the Pats would be featured in the opening game of the season, a rematch of their Super Bowl loss to the Seahawks. DP admits he’s more interested in the off-field drama than the actual football game.

Dan and the Danettes open up a can of worms as they try to determine which sports unicorn will be considered more amazing when all is said and done; Shohei Ohtani or Victor Wembanyama. Both players are doing things we have never seen before, and while Shohei may eventually amass more remarkable career stats, Wemby is likely to provide more individual highlights that appear super-human.

The Knicks continued their dominance, winning their ninth consecutive NBA Playoff game against the Cavaliers last night to take a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals and as usual, the front row was filled with celebrities. Dan and the Danettes consider the bona fides for some of these celebrity “fans” at Madison Square Garden and cast doubt on the sincerity of their dedication to the New York Knickerbockers.

Rumors are circulating that Rams all-time career sack leader Aaron Donald may consider unretiring and returning to play alongside newly acquired Myles Garrett, and DP is all for it.
