The problem: Morant never actually said it. While Morant did say that in a recent interview with Bleacher Report’s Taylor Rooks that he would’ve “cooked” Jordan, the quote ESPN used came from Ballsack Sports, a satirical Twitter account that has close to 200,000 followers. The tweet in question has over 1,700 retweets and 24,000 likes at the time of publishing. MORE: Future backcourt rankings: Morant, Bane lead the way...

MORE: Latest details about Dwayne Haskins’ death However, Schefter’s initial tweet was viewed by many as insensitive. Why? Because he painted Haskins in an unflattering light while announcing the QB’s passing. The tweet, which has now been deleted after receiving backlash, read, “Dwayne Haskins, a standout at Ohio State before struggling to catch on with Washington and Pittsburgh in the NFL, died this morning when he got hit by a car in South Florida, per his agent Cedric Saunders....
With the NFL Combine a week away, the former offensive lineman turned ESPN analyst proved he still possess a sizable portion of the strength that made him a first-round draft pick, a two-time Super Bowl champion and a Pro-Bowler.

MORE: Notable sports deaths of 2016 Former NBA coach Philip “Flip” Saunders was not shown during the television airing of the ESPYS, and it caught the ire of people on social media. Saunders died in October after announcing his Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis just a few months earlier. Saunders, who coached the Timberwolves, Pistons, Wizards and then the Wolves again, was also an analyst for ESPN.

Poland, Bulgaria and Slovakia were reportedly on hand to transfer Russian-made MiG-29 and Su-24 fighter jets to Ukraine to bolster the country’s defense, as Kyiv’s combat aircraft are steadily degraded by Russian fighters and anti-aircraft weapons.

There are different types of APD and they need to be managed differently. A generic list of suggestions may help certain types of APD but make others worse or at a minimum be ineffective....

A number of Christian pastors and so-called “prophets” predicted ahead of the 2020 election that Trump would win reelection, claiming that was God’s will. When that prophecy did not come to fruition, some apologized and admitted they were wrong. Others, like Jansen, have found creative ways to justify the current reality in the U.S. “You have to realize what’s taken place in our nation has been a hostile takeover, and just because there was a fake inauguration [of Biden]…for optics and for posture, let them have their day in the sun,” Jansen, the founder of Global Fire Ministries International based out of Tennessee, said during a Tuesday episode of the Elijah Streams YouTube program....

Some in the British media responded with calls to strip the family of its British citizenship. Could that actually happen? Legally, the answer is no. But as the British “shock jocks” and their American counterparts well know, the legal niceties are beside the point. Meghan Markle is a U.S. citizen who never acquired British citizenship. She can’t lose a status she never had (or, apparently, wants). Their son Archie inherited U....

In January, Griffen tweeted at the Vikings organization and said, “(Starting quarterback) Kirk Cousins is ass. Thank you”. He followed it with a pair of disparaging tweets in which he tried to indicate that Vikings coach Mike Zimmer did not want Cousins on the team (he signed during the offseason in 2018)....
