Happy Monday. — Let’s just have quick and easy week and get back to watching sports, what do you say?
MLB
Baseball fans mourn the loss of legendary Boston Red Sox pitcher, Tim Wakefield. Who passed away at 57 after being diagnosed with brain cancer. Wakefield was widely known for his ridiculous knuckleball, which is a pitch thrown without any spin on the ball
Our hearts are broken with the loss of Tim Wakefield.
Wake embodied true goodness; a devoted husband, father, and teammate, beloved broadcaster, and the ultimate community leader. He gave so much to the game and all of Red Sox Nation.
Our deepest love and thoughts are with… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

GOLF
Ryder Cup - Marco Simone Golf & Country Club, Rome: For those that don’t know — the Ryder Cup is always full of emotions. Guys representing their countries (US/Europe), rowdy fans and pride in general make it a great atmosphere. There was more drama this year as we had a protest from US player, Patrick Cantlay and a heated argument between Rory McIlroy and a US caddy. Besides that, the Europeans flat-out stomped the US this year 16.5-11.5. See you in NY in 2025
We have fans in the water, repeat, fans in the water 🏊

NFL
Jacksonville Jaguars 23 - Atlanta Falcons 7: Not only was this game brought to us live from London, but the NFL had an alternate animated broadcast for kids, set in Andy’s room from Toy Story. I haven’t heard reactions one way or another — what do you think of this?

Browns TE, David Njoku, showed up to the game like this after suffering burns to his face and arms in a cooking accident. It’s cool - but if you’re going to show up like this, you better have a monster day for our fantasy line-ups
Browns TE David Njoku, who suffered facial burns this weekend, arrives at Browns Stadium in a full on mask.
Njoku is expected to try to play.
