Happy Thursday, ladies and gentlemen. We are closing in on the weekend and the return of the MLB regular season. Last night, the ESPYS took place and there were some incredible moments like Damar Hamlin’s emotional presentation to the Buffalo Bills training staff, LeBron James being presented the Best Record Breaking Performance award by his family, and Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs closing out the show. It’s surprising how much better the ceremony was without a singular host. Outside of the Dolby Theater, soccer fans were left distraught when the USMNT struggled through regulation and extra time before falling to Panama in penalties to miss out on the Gold Cup Final. To add insult to injury, Mexico delivered a 3-0 trouncing of Jamaica to cap off the night and punched its ticket to the final. Today, we have the Wimbledon women’s semifinals and some NBA Summer League, while the Scottish Open will continue through the first half of the day. In the meantime, let’s check out some headlines from around the web that we may have missed.

Incoming @InterMiamiCF striker Lionel Messi and @HardRock collaborated on a new chicken sandwich — "Made For You by Leo Messi” — which I can almost certainly guarantee that he has never actually put in his mouth. 😆 #sportsbiz #nomnomnom https://t.co/no0rcBovET pic.twitter.com/DR30bD7DQW

Soccer star Lionel Messi collaborated with Hard Rock on a new chicken sandwich named “Made For You by Leo Messi.” And it has just enough vegetables to trick you into thinking he might try it one day.
