As if Josh Gibson’s status isn’t elevated enough by baseball’s decision to integrate Negro Leagues statistics into MLB record books, Negro Leagues Baseball Museum president Bob Kendrick offered an observation. “I’m not one to say, ‘I told you,’ but I’ve been telling folks for the longest time that in my own humble opinion Josh Gibson was the greatest baseball player to ever put on a uniform,” Kendrick said.

The Japanese police and media, by request of the police, call them bōryokudan (暴力団, “violent groups”, IPA: [boːɾʲokɯꜜdaɴ]), while the yakuza call themselves ninkyō dantai (任侠団体, “chivalrous organizations”, IPA: [ɲiŋkʲoː dantai]). The English equivalent for the term yakuza is gangster, meaning an individual involved in a Mafia-like criminal organization.[3] The yakuza are known for their strict codes of conduct, their organized fiefdom nature, and several unconventional ritual practices such as yubitsume, or amputation of the left little finger.[4] Members are often portrayed as males with heavily tattooed bodies and wearing fundoshi, sometimes with a kimono or, in more recent years, a Western-style “sharp” suit covering them.[5] At…

The rumor mill is churning with Lakers buzz as Los Angeles looks to get back on top following a first-round exit. Firing Darvin Ham is a clear indication LA will change up whatever it needs to return to legitimate contention. On the roster side, a big-time addition appears to be brewing, and now there’s another possible target clearly available for Rob Pelinka. Evan Sidery of Forbes reports the Chicago Bulls “will attempt” to trade guard Zach LaVine this offseason. Sidery notes LaVine’s market is “severely limited”, though, and Chicago “might have to attach an asset to get off LaVine at this rate.”…

The news hit like a punch to the gut Sunday evening: Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr., the defending National League MVP, will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL in his left knee. Acuña is a transcendent player who has had buzzard’s luck over the last five years. But the misfortune isn’t just his: There aren’t many players more fun to watch than Acuña — and now, none of us get to do so until 2025. It just stinks. A player like Acuña isn’t taken off the board without some serious ramifications, not just for him but for his…
