It’s been 24 years since Jim Harbaugh threw his final pass as an NFL quarterback, but the 60-year-old still has the strength and build of someone who can still play. After a nine-year run at the University of Michigan that culminated with a 2023 national championship, Jim Harbaugh decided to return to the NFL and accepted the Los Angeles Chargers’ head coaching position.

James Houston has had quite the roller coaster of a young career with the Detroit Lions. From not making the 53-man roster as a sixth-round pick in 2022 to finishing that same season with an incredible 8-sack outburst in six games, then falling back down the depth chart last summer before suffering a serious leg injury in 2023, Houston has been all over the Lions map.
Thursday’s practice session was a roller coaster in and of itself for Houston. One rep after smoking rookie Giovanni Manu around (and under) the tackle, Houston got a verbal tongue-lashing from defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn...

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.

The casual baseball eye might not detect it, but the Los Angeles Dodgers have had a clown car full of players hit the injured list this season. At 61-42, Los Angeles leads the NL West despite nearly all their MLB starting rotation hitting the shelf at one point this season. However, on Wednesday, the Dodgers welcomed back ace Tyler Glasnow after a short IL stint, with the lengthy righty (who looks just like Cillian Murphy from Peaky Blinders) throwing five innings of one-run ball.
