🔮 As Samantha ran toward where Judge was positioned with the spectators, he waved at his wife and pointed so Nora could see, too, and when the pair met Samantha near the finish, he was wearing an Air Jordan shirt. Judge has supported Samantha at marathons before, as she also ran the NYC Marathon in 2025, 2023 and 2022, too.
🔮 He’ll be owed $50.3 million, the outlet added, and Rick Stockstill, a former Middle Tennessee head coach and currently an offensive analyst for the Seminoles, will serve as their interim coach for the remainder of the season.
🔮 Reese, in the aftermath of their 68-63 loss in Game 7 to the Valkyries on Saturday, used the phrase “delayed not denied” to reiterate that Atlanta will return to the league’s ultimate stage.
🔮 The Eagles, given their 2-5 record, might end up trading players ahead of the trade deadline, but Saquon Barkley won’t be one of them.
🔮 If it’s a post-up game or something like that, OK, maybe, I don’t know.
🔮 They didn’t find “that gear” — the one they needed to overpower opponents, the one that defined their sprint through May and June — until the fourth quarter.
🔮 “What I would say is when we’re going through the process, the process is so thorough that — or our process I feel like is thorough — that it may not be for today,” Schoen said of what changed.
🔮 McCarthy said his tradition will continue for the rest of his career, though it’s “strictly” reserved for Stroud, maybe Dolphins backup Kyle McCord and then Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day if he ever “comes up to the NFL.”
🔮 The next test for the Rangers’ perfect home record — the next possibility to play spoiler to a start nearing the point of being a historic one — will involve a pair of Garden returns.
🔮 For the second consecutive year, James Reimer turned a PTO into an NHL deal — and this one will help the Rangers’ goaltending puzzle.

The “circumstance of why is not great,” De Palma said of Shesterkin’s injury and Garand’s opportunity, but entering play Wednesday, Garand led NHL goaltenders who’ve made at least three appearances with his 1.15 goals against average and his .951 save percentage — serving as another reminder of the disaster the Rangers would be staring down if another team claimed him.

🔮 The scene that unfolded Tuesday night at the Garden — the “Dy-lan” chants echoing just weeks after he’d been waived, the latest sign that maybe these Rangers can survive without Igor Shesterkin — almost never had a chance to materialize.
