Ah, hope. It’s what keeps us going back every week, isn’t it? Back in the summer of 2005, we had hope in abundance. Fresh off the back of winning the Championship title, we were arming ourselves ready for a return to the top flight, and we had no idea just how bad the season was going to be.

It’s here – and it’s a beauty! After months of waiting since rumours first started about hummel partnering with the club we have now seen their new home design for the 2024-25 campaign, and the initial response has been very favourable. Phil West and some of the roundtable lads Sunderland x Hummel: They’re back! - Roker Report (sbnation.com) Sunderland’s new Hummel gear — “Take my money!” or “I’ll pass, thanks”? - Roker Report (sbnation.com) have already had their say on the latest red and white stripes and they are not alone in their praise based on social media responses, but as a self-confessed Sunderland kit geek I thought I would add to the reaction with some observations of my own.

Latest Sunderland kit is a red and white delight!

The first round of the 2024 NBA Draft has come and gone, and it was a night full of surprises. Despite 2024 being a draft class that has been considered weak, there were a bunch of pretty fun players going to interesting spots.

Kyle Filipowski should have been a Top 20 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, especially this NBA Draft. When you’re a seven-foot stretch four from Duke who averaged 16 points and 8 rebounds, when most of the 2024 class is full of Hail Mary picks and “what ifs,” it doesn’t matter that there are concerns about your athleticism or shot creation — you get picked early.

Tony Hawk’s 900 isn’t a trick for the faint of heart. It features a full two-and-a-half rotation, and if you don’t have enough speed going into it and your spin is too slow, landing it is nearly impossible, especially given the fact that you’re blind to your landing zone not once, but twice during the trick. Spinning that much requires equal parts courage and skill.

A jury in federal court in California decided on Thursday that the NFL and its member teams violated federal antitrust laws with the “Sunday Ticket” package. Following Thursday’s historic jury verdict against the NFL and its member teams — that could have the league on the hook for over $14 billion in damages to plaintiffs, including individual fans and commercial establishments who bought “Sunday Ticket” — many are wondering when individual team packages could hit the airwaves, as well as when they might see a check.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

As expected, the topic of nepotism came up during the broadcast of the 2024 NBA Draft as the inevitable selection of Bronny James by the Los Angeles Lakers neared. And with Bronny’s agent, Rich Paul, reportedly telling any team trying to draft him that LeBron James’ son will play in Australia if he’s selected against his will, it’s no surprise that some unfamiliar with how common that specific agent tactic is would get upset.
