Read this nonsense:
A concern has emerged in recent days: There are certain coaches and front-office staffers reluctant to have their IT employees in their homes for fear of the virus spreading, and vice versa; some IT employees are concerned about going into other homes to equip them for the draft.

Jesus Christ. I’ve had it.
Jameis Winston was on Fox News today, talking about a Coronavirus hotline that he developed with Florida surgeon Dr. Scott Kelley.
Of course they asked him a question about football and being replaced by Tom Brady, which resulted in this quote, via ESPN:
Via Shams:
The Bulls interviewed former 76ers president Bryan Colangelo for top basketball operations position, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Colangelo also has been lead executive in Toronto and Phoenix.
— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) April 8, 2020
Surprising to see a team go anywhere near Colangelo, considering the nature of “Burnergate” and his Sixers exit. Feels like residual toxicity exists.
He always maintained that he had no knowledge of his wife’s Twitter activity and never shared any confidential information with her. Perhaps the Bulls agreed with that assertion or figured they’d bring him in and ask their own questions about the scandal.
Tuesday, The Action Network’s Darren Rovell tweeted and deleted criticism of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, wondering why he only donated 100 million dollars to food banks during the Coronavirus crisis.
This is a common theme right now. You see a lot of people admonishing others for charitable efforts they deem inadequate, and the argument goes like this, thanks to a screen grab from Barstool Sports that preserved the tweet:
Down goes the Schuylkill Expressway!
In a stunning upset, the reigning, defending champion and overall #1 seed was eliminated by a #3 seed in the national title game of our Worst of Philadelphia 2020 bracket.
The performance from “Angelo Cataldi’s fake outrage” will go down as one of the best sports stories of all time. This was fake outrage’s first Big Dance appearance, and it took out three straight #1 seeds to become the very worst of Philadelphia. This is an unprecedented run that may never be repeated.
And the final tally was close. Fake outrage won 54% of vote with 644 people safely casting a ballot while self-isolated. No hanging chads or Russian collusion here:
This Tom Brady interview on Howard Stern’s show is pretty fascinating. He always gets good answers out of his guests.
Of course they talked about the quarterback’s move from New England to Tampa, but the most interesting stuff involved his personal and home life, which we don’t know too much about. In something that should be reassuring to average schlubs like you and me, Brady told Stern about pulling back on his football commitments because his supermodel wife, Gisele Bundchen, asked him to devote more time to family responsibilities:
Elite pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue wants out of Duval.
The Jaguars put the non-exclusive franchise tag on the 25-year-old defensive end this offseason, which led to him very publicly asking for a trade and sending all sorts of Philadelphia Eagles-related hints on social media.
Realistically, the Birds would have to offer something like a first round pick + another asset to acquire Ngakoue and then pay him $17 million, per tag rules. As such, Adam Schefter told Marc Farzetta on 97.5 the Fanatic this morning that he feels like Philadelphia will not be a Jacksonville trade partner:
Anthony and Russ react to the news of the NHL looking at North Dakota as a neutral site for regular season and postseason games. The guys answer questions from the live feed including weight loss/gains, poor snacking decisions, shopping at grocery stores, and if the leagues returning at the same time would lead to over saturation. They also present consistent issues encountered with conference calls with Flyers players. Plus, a preview of a new binge segment coming in future episodes during the pause.
We’ll be doing a live stream of the show every week going forward, which you can find on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube Live.
