This afternoon, thousands of England supporters in Miami are on the way to the quarterfinal against Norway. Last night, hundreds of them were partying at the Marlins game, boozing and singing and asking me which team was which. My story from last night: frontofficesports.com/england-world-…

amazing. from 1993.

Dan Patrick on WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert cancelling her appearance on the show: "If you want to be treated as a serious league, this is what happens! These are tough questions, but this is a fair outlet for you – a fair platform. I will treat you with respect."

Update: Since this story published, I've been told that FanDuel and Cameo have a partnership under which Cameo videos can be purchased for VIP bettors. Story has been updated to reflect that.

Matt Miller says he is taking leave from ESPN following surgery Story from @BenAxelrod about the situation previously frontofficesports.com/matt-miller-es…

A quick update: The surgery to remove my left arm was successful with hopes of an eventual prosthetic replacement. Similarly, the femur and patella surgeries were also successful and the fantastic surgery team was able to save my left leg.  To best focus on my healing and recovery, I’m stepping away indefinitely and will be placed on leave from ESPN. Thank you to all for the prayers and thoughts; please keep them coming.

FOS reports that Rob Gronkowski has recorded a video for FanDuel VIPs, and sports TV personality Kay Adams has called VIP bettors. “In the VIP space, people play pretty loose and free with how they secure their clients being happy,” an FOS source says.

In the Bryce Harper video kerfuffle, someone is in big trouble. multiple sources tell @BenHorney @FOS a FanDuel employee purchased the video on Cameo as a personal video, and Harper didn't know how it would be used. No comment yet from Harper or Cameo. frontofficesports.com/how-bryce-harp…

NEW: The personalized message Bryce Harper recorded in 2024 for a man deep in gambling debt was purchased through video-sharing platform Cameo, and the MLB star did not know it would be used as part of FanDuel’s VIP bettor program, sources tell @FOS. frontofficesports.com/how-bryce-harp…

AI or no AI: The future of storytelling is always bright.

Everyone Wants to Cover Sports -- it's where the juice is. @EllynBriggs @FOS talked to editors from Politico, Vanity Fair, and the New Yorker about their pushing into sports amid fears of "Google Zero" frontofficesports.com/why-so-many-me…

US Google searches for "norway travel" spiked 5,000% over the past week vs. same period last year, with a surge on Sunday when Norway beat Brazil in round of 16

great line on the entire Dundon family getting their names on the Stanley Cup @barry @DefectorMedia

While youth sports are the topic du jour (though really when are they not)... Why do summer travel ball tournaments keep starting starting earlier and earlier in the week? My brother has coached 15 + 16U travel baseball teams for close to a decade. He'd initially have to take off a Friday here and there to be at games. Then, a few years ago, some Thursdays too. This week, he left yesterday (WEDNESDAY) to be in Louisville for an evening game Growing up, our baseball/softball tournaments were almost exclusively jam-packed Saturday + Sunday affairs Are sports parents just working from their sideline lawn chairs these days??

Per @FOS, two groups have emerged from the pack in the effort to buy the Seahawks. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

NEWS: Two front-runners have emerged in the Seahawks sale process. One features Celtics minority owner Aditya Mittal and ex-Celtics governor Wyc Grousbeck. The other is led by 49ers minority owner Vinod Khosla. A former Seahawk is involved with one bid. frontofficesports.com/two-bidders-pu…
