Happy Friday, ladies and gentlemen! We’ve survived another week and it’s almost time to kick back and enjoy the weekend. The morning is starting off a little slow after the first NFL game of the year last night, but we have plenty of things to look forward to once the coffee kicks in. The USA will be going for gold in basketball after a rocky lead up to the Olympics, and we even have some UFC action this weekend. On Sunday, meanwhile, the Olympics will come to an end with the closing ceremony. Let’s not waste any more time though and get right to the headlines.
- Meet Alaina from the University of North Carolina.
- Here is the first touchdown of the 2021 NFL preseason.
- Peyton Manning made fun of his own forehead and people were loving it.
- Soccer superstar Lionel Messi will not be returning to Barcelona.
- Dodgers fans really don’t like Jose Altuve.
- Sumo statue’s reign of Olympic terror is over.
- Here are photos of the most memorable Tokyo Olympics moments.
