00:00
But we'll start off with some potential issues with the University of Michigan that we discussed
00:09
yesterday.
00:10
It seems like that story has percolated into today as well, as the University of Michigan
00:15
are going to be facing some sanctions.
00:17
In fact, Michigan and five individuals who are currently or previously worked for the
00:22
program reached an agreement with the NCAA enforcement staff on violations that are concerning
00:28
their coaching activities concerning recruiting and their non-coaching staff members that
00:34
occurred within the football program.
00:36
The committee issued a statement on April the 16th confirming the resolution of the
00:41
case, and Jim Harbaugh was not part of that agreement, so his case was resolved separately.
00:49
And right now, the NCAA also has issued a statement, and we're going to give you that
00:56
statement here, I believe, in a second here.
00:58
There it is, the Division I Committee on Infractions panel determined that former Michigan
01:02
head football coach Jim Harbaugh violated recruiting and inducement rules, engaged in
01:06
unethical conduct, failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance, and violated head coach responsibility
01:14
obligations resulting in a four-year show cause order.
01:20
Harbaugh could potentially face a suspension if he returns to coach in college.
01:27
It will not affect him in the National Football League, which really is the bottom line as
01:31
he takes over for the Chargers this year.
01:33
All right.
01:34
A very interesting lawsuit has percolated online, which isn't getting attention, and
01:38
so we thought we would bring some of it to light.
01:40
This is regarding FanDuel, really interesting story, allegedly violating California's privacy
01:45
laws that, again, California does not have legalized sports betting by using TikTok's
01:50
trap and trace software to track website users.
01:55
How about that?
01:56
The lawsuit, which was filed last month in the U.S. District Court for the Central District
02:00
of California, claims that the software collects user data before cookie consent is given,
02:07
and that violates California's trap and trace law using a process called fingerprinting.
02:14
The TikTok software, what they do is collect personal data from users who visit the website,
02:19
and then the data is matched against existing data that TikTok has already mined from hundreds
02:23
of Americans, millions of Americans.
02:25
The software then can be used to restructure the user's identity, and that allows the company
02:29
to run targeted advertising campaigns.
02:32
You know what that's all about, despite not receiving cookie content.
02:36
And basically what this means is that they did not have consent to use this via FanDuel,
02:40
and at the same time, everybody who's used Instagram, Facebook, or anything else, you
02:44
click on something, you know exactly why you're getting ads for that.
02:48
Same thing essentially is here as well.
02:50
So we'll follow this for you, and of course, our friends at Legal Sports Report will as
02:53
well.
02:54
Okay, looks like that China is very interested in changing some of the elements to the upcoming
03:00
Olympic Games.
03:01
Now, again, with the Olympic Games coming to an end, this will affect the next Olympic
03:04
Games.
03:05
China's anti-doping agency on Thursday has asked the ITA, the International Testing Agency,
03:11
to intensify testing of the Americans in track and field.
03:16
After sprinter Aryan Knighton tested positive for a banned substance, they've also accused
03:21
the U.S. anti-doping agency earlier this week of some double standards, saying that
03:25
the U.S. had been trying its best to clear U.S. athletes while using the different methods
03:32
of cover-ups in order for them to participate.
03:35
So needless to say, upcoming Olympics in the United States in four years.
03:40
We'll see if this potentially gets affected.
03:43
Also, the Chicago White Sox have made a move, and not a surprising one.
03:47
Pedro Grafal, who had 190 losses over the last two seasons, has been dismissed by the
03:54
Chicago White Sox.
03:55
It was announced this morning, 89 wins, 190 losses, and the largest losing streak in the
04:03
history of the American League at 21 games.
04:05
That was tied.
04:06
So Grafal is out as manager of the White Sox.
04:09
All right, back to the Olympics.
04:11
Let's go to some results here.
04:12
How about Quincy Hall?
04:13
What an incredible run for him.
04:14
The latest American to electrify the fans in Paris, coming all the way from behind.
04:22
Can't show you the video.
04:23
That's a shame.
04:24
400 meters to reel in three runners and capture the gold medal.
04:26
He was in fourth place, came all the way back to finish first.
04:29
He beat Matthew Hudson Smith by 0.04 seconds.
04:33
How about Noah Lyles at the Olympics?
04:35
We've been talking about him quite a bit, right?
04:37
He'll race for his second Olympic gold medal.
04:39
He finished runner-up on Wednesday in the 200 meter, his first loss at that distance
04:42
in three years.
04:43
Andre de Grasse of Canada finished third in his heat and did not advance.
04:48
Over in women's basketball, Team USA moves on.
04:52
They beat Nigeria by the final of 88 to 74.
04:56
They're looking for their eighth consecutive and 10th overall Olympic gold medal at the
05:00
US Olympics.
05:01
Team USA was led by Asia Wilson.
05:04
She had 20 points, 10 rebounds, double-double.
05:07
Her third of the Paris games was also Wilson's fourth of her career, the most ever by a US
05:12
women's player.
05:13
How about this new obstacle course sport?
05:16
Pentathlon, an outlier at the Olympics, is getting rid of its horse competition at the
05:21
Paris games and bringing in a new competition.
05:23
It's called American Ninja Warrior.
05:27
Sounds familiar.
05:28
Sounds like something we see on TV.
05:30
It's an obstacle course for the Olympic games in 2028, a new pentathlon that essentially
05:36
involves running, swimming, horse riding, shooting, and fencing.
05:43
Did you write all that down?
05:45
If not, when the Olympics comes back in 2028, I'll tell you all again.
05:49
In Major League Baseball, Jackson Holliday, one of the top young prospects and players
05:52
in all of Major League Baseball, hit a home run again last night.
05:55
It's his third straight game.
05:57
He ain't even 21 years old, folks, and he's home run three games in a row.
06:01
He did not get off to the best start when he was activated earlier this season for the
06:05
Orioles, but after a stint in the minor leagues, he has come back with a vengeance, and his
06:08
manager, Brandon Hyde, said it's all about the swing.
06:11
He's got a nice swing, and there's a lot of things that work in that swing, and he's got
06:15
a lot of confidence, and he really can get on a fast ball, and I just think you see the
06:22
confidence growing, honestly, up here at this level.
06:25
A little bit of success, and all of a sudden, you start feeling good in the batter's box,
06:29
and he's getting some huge hits.
06:31
That's three nights in a row, so I'm really happy for him.
06:35
Jackson Holliday on fire for the Orioles, but nobody hotter last night in Major League
06:40
Baseball than Kyle Schwarber of the Philadelphia Phillies.
06:43
Not one, not two, but three home runs in their victory over the Dodgers yesterday.
06:48
They were down 4-3, but all of a sudden, they stormed a huge comeback in this one as Schwarber
06:55
hit three home runs, and the manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Dave Roberts, was thrown
07:00
out of the game for arguing balls and strikes.
07:03
Not happy with the way things went there.
07:05
In terms of afternoon baseball today, we have the Giants and Nationals coming up at
07:09
noon Eastern.
07:10
Kyle Harrison against DJ Hearst.
07:12
Those are the starting pitchers, although weather could be a factor in that game.
07:15
The Brewers take on the Braves.
07:16
Frankie Montas takes on Charlie Morton.
07:18
The Brewers have won the first three games of that series.
07:22
Also 12.35 Eastern, it is Padres and Pirates, and Scott Farrell at 3 o'clock Eastern will
07:27
give you recaps and highlights of all those games as well.
07:31
Over in the National Football League, we've got preseason action tonight.
07:34
You ready to, you know, just unload your entire bankroll on this great game between the Panthers
07:41
and Patriots?
07:42
Total of 34.5, bet it all on one of the sides.
07:47
I'm just kidding.
07:48
Stay away.
07:49
Lions also take on the Giants.
07:51
How about the University of Texas going into the season as one of the favorites to win
07:55
the Southeastern Conference?
07:56
They've lost their running back, CJ Baxter, a knee injury in practice Tuesday.
08:01
He's going to have to have season-ending surgery as an MRI revealed posterior collateral ligaments,
08:09
LCL PCL tears.
08:11
He was the number 30 overall recruit in 2023.
08:14
Texas has a good backup, but Baxter's a good running back as well.
08:18
Fights in practice.
08:19
We're seeing this happen.
08:20
Teams need to play against each other and stop fighting against each other.
08:23
DK Metcalf of the Seattle Seahawks yesterday, swigging his helmet, getting in fights.
08:27
Not good.
08:28
Lamar Jackson says that he's lost 20 pounds.
08:30
He said he got too fat last year.
08:31
Guy looked in great shape to me.
08:33
Couldn't we all lose 20 pounds?
08:34
We'll be back right after this.
08:35
Don't go away.
