All due respect to Arch but he’s done nothing that’s even close Joe Smith’s four-year peak
NEW: Texas' Steve Sarkisian on QB Arch Manning: "If you took the name off the back of his jersey and you said here's Joe Smith playing quarterback at the University of Texas, we'd be praising the guy." (h/t @tbhorka) on3.com/news/steve-sarkisian…

As the son of the Laguna Beach safeties coach (who also put both of his kids through USC) I can say he’d love to have you on board 🌊
Lemme know if they looking for a DB coach 😂🔥

Something I'd bet the vast majority of fans who are begging for a salary cap aren't aware of. Great breakdown by @joonlee here on how the Dodgers' TV deal gives them a massive $$ advantage over the rest of the league
For more context on the Dodgers having the $$ to trade for Tarik Skubal ⬇️

Had a great time talking trade candidates on the Baseball Insiders pod—it's never too early to check in on the hot stove:
The Baseball Insiders: Early look at trade deadline candidates; what the Lucas Giolito signing means for the Padres; much more. With @AdamWeinrib and special guest @NickSelbe: youtube.com/live/5XpApYTKasA

This is a work of art, made better by the use of cursive
Got bored during the ACT so I named almost every baseball player I could off the dome

We’ve spent 15 months bargaining with @MinuteMediaLTD. We’ve reached agreements on some issues, but management’s proposals on wages, medical benefits and AI remain unacceptable. We’ve upheld and rebuilt SI, and we deserve better. This is what we’re fighting for. 🧵 (1/4)

Many people are saying it's the Big Ten matchup of the season* Had a blast talking USC-Northwestern with @ZachKoons! No one covers the Wildcats better (*between private schools on a Friday night)
New Bleav in Northwestern podcast! 🚨🏈🚨 Friday night lights vs. USC and Sports Illustrated’s @NickSelbe comes on to dive deep on the Trojans. Jayden Maiava (is he good?), a scary skill group and a defense with a huge weakness. Plus, picks! Check it out: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Three months ago, the Blue Jays traded for Shane Bieber in hopes he’d be able to turn in a performance like he did last night. Latest for @SInow on how Bieber and the rest of Toronto’s mid-season acquisitions have them two wins away from a championship: si.com/mlb/blue-jays-shane-b…
