As I write this, Major League Baseball is in the 2024 All-Star break. The Philadelphia Phillies sent eight players to this year’s classic, tying an All-Star Game record. This is a wonderful accomplishment for a franchise that often had to rely on the “one player from each team rule” to place anybody on the team. In 1960, for example, second baseman Tony Taylor was the only Phillie named to the team, and he had only been a Phillies player for two months after coming over in a May 13 trade with the Chicago Cubs. Taylor singled sharply to center in the only All-Star at-bat of his 19-year career.

When a top three overall recruit in the country signs on to play Kentucky basketball, everyone thinks high draft pick. That wasn’t the case for former blue-chip recruit Justin Edwards. Edwards was on the wrong side of history when he became the first top-three recruit to go undrafted in the 2024 NBA draft. This is even more daunting when considering the 2024 NBA draft class was widely regarded as weak. In Edward’s mind though, all this was a mistake. In an interview with Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Edwards reportedly stated,

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice will almost certainly face some type of suspension following his eventful offseason. Back in April, the wide receiver was responsible for a six-car crash after driving 119 miles per hour in a Lamborghini. The former second-round pick left the scene of the crime without checking in on the potentially injured civilians before eventually surrendering himself to the police. Shortly after this event, police investigated Rice for allegedly assaulting a photographer in a nightclub.
