Sparks Stun Liberty in Nail-Biter as Ionescu's Heroics Fall Short Brooklyn , NY — The Liberty’s late-game rally fell just short in a heart-stopping 101-99 loss to the Sparks on Friday night, snapping New York’s four-game win streak despite Sabrina Ionescu’s historic 30-point, 8-rebound, 6-assist masterpiece. The Liberty (17-7) dug themselves into an early 15-point hole after a disastrous first quarter but stormed back behind Ionescu’s four steals (tying a season high) and Natasha Cloud’s 22-point, 9-assist gem—only to watch Dearica Hamby sink the game-winning layup with 3.2 seconds left. Los Angeles (11-14) rode Chelsea Jackson’s 24 points and 10 assists from Julie Allemand to pull off the upset, handing New York just its second loss in 10 games.

Say it ain't so: Marcus Smart was the perfect Boston Celtic – and now he's a Laker
This one hurts – badly. I'll start this off by providing the context that I am a die-hard Boston Celtics fan. Was I born and raised a fan? No. I adopted the franchise in the summer of 2007, when I was 12 years old. They had just traded for my favorite player, Kevin Garnett.

After "Soar the Eagle"
When the American Athletic Conference rebranded as simply the American Conference on July 21, 2025, it wasn’t just a cosmetic change. Alongside a new logo and the slogan “Built to Rise,” the conference unveiled Soar the Eagle—a bold, brawny, animated mascot designed to soar across social media, sponsor campaigns, and kids’ reading programs alike. With a muscular chest, a feathered cape, and a multi-platform rollout strategy, Soar is more than a mascot—he’s a brand ambassador, social influencer, and potential video game character.

There's a current NFL dynasty in Kansas City, Florida's two NHL teams have been in the Cup Final every year in this decade, and won four of those times. The Golden State Warriors had a recent string of championships in the NBA, and baseball has the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees among the ultimate "haves."
