🏀 Dodgers’ Mark Walter Purchasing Lakers for $10 Billion |
Los Angeles icon Mark Walter—the Dodgers’ big‑money boss—reportedly struck a colossal deal to buy the Lakers in a $10 billion transaction that shatters the record for any U.S. sports franchise.
Walter—already steering the Dodgers, Sparks, Chelsea FC and more—will now also call the shots for the storied NBA team, with Jeanie Buss staying on as team governor and the Buss family retaining a minority stake.
Lakers legend Magic Johnson wasted no time cheering it on, praising Walter’s championship pedigree and character as a perfect custodian of the franchise. |
⚾ Coastal Carolina, LSU to Meet in CWS Finals |
Coastal Carolina and LSU are set to clash in the 2025 College World Series finals in Omaha this weekend—a best-of-three showdown starting Saturday.
Coastal Carolina rolled through Bracket 1, dominating Louisville 11–3 in the semifinals on Wednesday, while LSU eked out a wild 6–5 walk-off win over Arkansas behind Jared Jones’ clutch hit to punch their ticket. Watch ending.
Riding a 26-game win streak, the Chanticleers look to capture their second national title (first since 2016) and derail LSU’s bid for an eighth championship. |
🏈 Ravens, CB Jaire Alexander Agree to One-Year Deal |
The Ravens officially signed veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander to a one‑year deal worth up to $6 million on Wednesday, reuniting him with former Louisville teammate Lamar Jackson.
Despite reportedly turning down richer offers, Alexander prioritized rejoining Jackson and joining a contender, bringing both star power and experience to Baltimore’s already stout secondary.
Now fully healthy and eager to prove himself, the two‑time Pro Bowler gives the Ravens a high‑risk, high‑reward asset at corner as they chase a Super Bowl run. |
