King of bad takes OJ Simpson checks in about playing golf during the coronavirus

You remember OJ Simpson right? The record-breaking running back turned failed movie star turned alleged double murderer turned race relations lightning rod turned catastrophically out of touch old man? Well, as it turns, ol' OJ has been on a bit of a content tear since the coronavirus hit US shores, beating the masses to the Costco crush, preaching good hygiene (especially on the cash you took off the boys), and even making an impassioned plea for perspective…

But just when thought OJ might be on the right side of something for once, on Wednesday he checked in following an afternoon 18 at the local CC, undoing all of his hard work with a simple message: coronavirus is bad, but not playing golf is worse.

Former Yankee Phil Hughes had the perfect response to his Old-Timers’ Day invite

As a diehard Yankee fan, even I can admit the franchise goes a little overboard with honoring players that once donned the pinstripes. Monument Park is letting anybody in these days, and Old-Timers' Day isn't exactly reserved for Hall-of-Famers. This is also a club that hired a manager based off one clutch homer he hit on a meatball pitch 14 years earlier (it seems to be working out so far though!).
So it should come as no surprise that Phil Hughes, who pitched for the Yankees from 2007 to 2013, received an Old-Timers' Day invite on Tuesday. Hughes was once a top pitching prospect in the Bronx, but was never able to deliver on the lofty expectations the franchise and the media heaped on him. In his seven seasons as a Yankee, he went 56-50, pitched to a 4.53 ERA and struck out 656 batters. Hardly invite-him-back-to-honor-him-type numbers.
But, Hughes was a part of the 2009 World Series team, though the majority of his work that year came out of the bullpen. He had 96 stri..

PGA Tour pro executes baby gender reveal in most PGA Tour pro way possible

First things first, Brandon Hagy should be applauded for keeping things relatively simple—and more importantly, safe—for his baby gender reveal. The 28-year-old PGA Tour pro stuck to the ol' exploding golf ball to announce what he and his wife, Jay, are expecting. But he also hit the shot in the most PGA Tour pro way possible.

That's because the long-hitting Hagy also took a long time over the ball before hitting the actual shot. Watch as he goes through his normal pre-shot routine, lining up his feet just right and giving a full waggle before finally pulling the trigger:

We especially love the waggle, as if Hagy really needed to reinforce a proper backswing on a shot that wasn't going anywhere. Hey, old habits die hard.
Hagy had found a bit of a groove lately with that s..

Poor Jason Terry is trending on Twitter because LeBron James posterized him 7 years ago

Former NBA Sixth Man of the Year Jason Terry was trending on Twitter on Wednesday morning, but before you start thinking the worst, know that he's safe and sound from the Coronavirus. However, that has not kept him immune from having the low moment of his otherwise superb 19-year NBA career trotted out again (and again) for all to see on its anniversary.

Seven years ago, LeBron James nearly ended Terry's career early with a vicious alley-oop dunk at the Boston Garden. In case you don't remember the play, here it is in its full glory, followed by Terry talking about a posterization people won't stop talking about:

“The worst thing about this is every time I'm in arenas or at the grocery store, little kids coming up to me, 'Hey, hey, aren't you Jason Terry?' 'Yeah, yeah, that's me,'” Terry said. “'Th..
