The Philadelphia Eagles stormed out to a 10-1 record in 2023, but the team ultimately collapsed through their final six regular season games. After a 32-9 loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Wild Card Round, Philadelphia was sent into the offseason with uncertainty.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Former South Carolina football coach Steve Spurrier is the GOAT (greatest of all-time) when it comes to chirping at other programs. The all-time winningest coach for the Gamecocks and Florida Gators always spoke his mind, and he wasn't afraid to use wry humor to stoke the flames of rivalries and fire up fanbases.

While I do think that USC will have a great first season in the Big Ten, I can't say I am rooting for their opportunistic head coach Lincoln Riley. With the help of D'Anton Lynn coordinating the defense and Miller Moss being far more relatable than Caleb Williams ever was under center, I am hoping USC plays well during its first Big Ten season. However, I am afraid that Riley may need to leave here soon.

SWAT Season 8 is adding to its cast. That’s not surprising considering it’s lost some series regulars. One of the new recurring guests is a Chicago Fire vet. The eighth season wasn’t originally intended to happen. When the seventh season was finally confirmed, it came with the news that it would be the final season. And that’s the way it was written. Sort of. The ending did allow for an eighth season, which was possible when CBS U-turned on the “final season” decision.

Bondurant, WY

Billionaire Joe Ricketts has ordered crews to immediately stop construction of his long-planned Sublette County luxury resort, and restore the area to its natural condition. A project that would have made a tourist destination out of the tiny, sleepy Hoback River basin community of Bondurant has been called off because of protective wildlife stipulations that abbreviated the construction season. Ricketts sought an exemption from the seasonal restrictions, which he claimed in a memo obtained by WyoFile would have increased the cost of building the high-end all-inclusive resort by $60 million to $100 million, but his request was denied .
