Per Woj, the Bucks are "planning to be without Giannis" for at least the start of the Pacers series. They hope he'll be back in a couple of weeks.
@Zimbra can be heard weeping as we speak.

Also... this is going to be a thing. QR code during the tag match. Puzzles on the web. etc.
The Twitterati think it's Alexa Bliss. But the symbol they showed was a indicating a duo as it was the symbol for noted binary planetoid Pluto & Charon.
(Unless it's something like Alexa and Nikki Cross, but... eh.)

Everything from when Jey handed the baton off to the credits running with Chad wrecking Sami’s ankle in front of his wife was as perfect as professional wrestling gets. The aforementioned entrance to a banger of a match to Gable snapping. You really don’t get moments like that too often.
While the trope of an outside attack will probably never die, I'd like to point out what an incredibly pleasant surprise it was for Jey to find Sami outside. I was 100% convinced he was going to walk out to a thumb to the throat and a Tama Tonga beatdown.
And as Gregg put it, there's definitely a few boys and girls in the crowd that will love this thing forever. Hell, I fully expect 10-15 years from now hearing some new wrestler say how they were there when Sami came through the crowd.
Triple H Forever!

We're officially 100 days away from Paris.
The biggest issue right now is the organizers are going to need to figure out something for the Triathalon.
Original plan was to do the swimming portion in the Seine. However, as anyone who has ever been to Paris probably could have told you... clean up isn't going well and the locals are getting really pissed about it. As it is right now the river is NOT fit for swimming.
Unclear how they'd modify it if the river isn't ready for July.

And only 15 years past when he should have.
I'm so happy for Phil, Eddie, and basically anyone in the NYC metro area that's ever had to listen to John Sterling call a baseball game.
(Except you Suzyn Waldman.)

WWE removed Dan Ventrelle from head of talent relations. WWE hired Ventrelle in the past to work as EVP of Talent Relations in September 2022.
"Talent Development and Recruiting will now report into Shawn Michaels."
Am I the only one who finds it weird that the memo uses his character's name and not his actual name?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kross, but your services will no longer be required by TKO."
"We wish you the best in your future endeavors."

So apparently the story about WFAN trying to acquire Stugotz as a program director is an actual story. The pay must not have been that great because this is the kind of position that he has been dreaming about.
https://awfulannouncing.com/radio/jon-stugotz-weiner-not-leaving-despite-wfan-interest.html
There's a lot of time that finding a new job isn't about the pay. I'm just gonna guess Stugotz got word from industry friends as to why the program director slot at the #1 sports radio station in the #1 media market in America was open, weighed that against his current job, and made his decision. (Mainly because that's what I'd do.)
If LeBatard is smart, he's working out a nice fat pay raise to reward/lock down his guy.

I can say for certain, I no longer believe there is anyone human named Dov Kleiman

Remember when the only good receiver(I said receiver not tight end) the Chiefs had last year was Rasheed Rice. Well not sure if he will be repeating that performance this year
https://twitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1774409258269921515
An arrest warrant has been issued for Rashee Rice and he has been told he must surrender to authorities today.

WWE TV - 4/15 - 4/21/2024 - Policy of Awesome Truth
in WWE PROGRAMMING

I think this is at the key to the production changes. Vince/Dunn hit gold when they, I guess, watched Natural Born Killers, and thought that's how they should present their product from then on. Zero attention span theater... quick cuts, shaky cam, impact zooms, etc. And for a long while there, it worked and made them seem very hip and edgy, which is something I'm positive Vince obsessed about (wanting very much to get past the era of smoke filled VFW Halls). The latest example of which is the AR stuff that no one asked for.
TV has evolved so much since then, that the new minds Levesque brought in have clearly been wanting to change how the whole thing feels for a while now. The long, sweeping shots. The return of steady cam. The very recent dumping of the AR stuff too. Along with the change of booking, it's made the product feel completely renewed in a way that's different from where it was AND feel different from what AEW is doing.
They want you to feel that WWE is the big leagues, and they can pour money into things like 8K cameras (see Bayley's entrance on Friday) to make themselves seem cinematic and much less dated than even a year ago.
