ESPN softball announcers serve up big ol’ matzo ball
God bless you if you've been watching the NCAA Softball Tournament. The NBA and NHL Playoffs are raging, Brooks Koepka is turning major fields into in-memoriams, and even tennis is about to get crazy. But if you've been tuning into ESPN 2 for some of that edge-of-your-seat collegiate softball action, you were rewarded on Monday afternoon when announcers Mark Neely and Danielle Lawrie embarked on one of the year's most painfully awkward in-booth interchanges. Gotta love live TV, folks.

Rustle up a pair of headphones and settle in. If you can't find those, dime your phone's volume on the subway and if anyone complains just say, “You're welcome.” The whole debacle begins with Neely and Lawrie—a former College World Series-winning pitcher with the Washington Huskies—discussing the psychological challenges of being up there on the mound all by yourself.
“I was fortunate. I got to work with Ken Ravizza, and..
This $2,210 Louis Vuitton ping pong set is the perfect Father’s Day gift for fathers named Jeff Bezos
Don't look now, but Father's Day will be here before you know it, and with it the crushing anxiety that comes up with buying the grumpier future version of yourself the perfect gift—that special something that says “thanks for bringing me into this dark, god-forsaken world entirely without consent.” Lucky for you, however, if your father happens to be Jeff Bezos, the rightful heir to the Prussian throne, or a Georgian arms dealer with a soft spot for pub games, Louis Vuitton has just what you're looking for: A $2,210-dollar ping pong set, which contrary to the price tag and most working definitions of “set,” doesn't even come with a table. Will you be paying in blood diamonds, laundered cash, or credit?

PGA Championship 2019: We tried to eat every single concession at Bethpage Black (and failed admirably)
Stuart FranklinThe dust has finally settled on the 2019 PGA Championship. Brook Koepka won his fourth major, Dustin Johnson came up just short yet again, and we at The Loop are still very, very full. Hang on, let us explain. On Thursday, we trekked to Bethpage Black, but not for the love of golf, like so many around us, but instead to meet up with Andy Lansing, CEO of Levy Restaurants, the company behind every burger and beer at May's new major. Our mission? To join Lansing on one of his patented food pilgrimages, attempting to consume every single concession we possibly could in the span of two glorious hours. Sorry Koepka, but you have nothing on this wire-to-wire performance.
At nearly every event Levy organizes—from the Kentucky Derby to the Grammys—Lansing can be found doing precisely what we saw on Thursday: Consuming up to 5,000 calories worth of food and drink under the banner of quality assurance, and more importantly, hunger. We didn't hit that mythical 5,000-calori..
The Milwaukee Bucks are the Disrespected Team of the Year
Vaughn RidleyTORONTO, ONTARIO – MAY 19: Giannis Antetokounmpo #34 of the Milwaukee Bucks shoots the ball against Norman Powell #24 of the Toronto Raptors during the second half in game three of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals at Scotiabank Arena on May 19, 2019 in Toronto, Canada.

(Photo by Vaughn Ridley/Getty Images)As I write, the Golden State Warriors are less than 24 hours removed from an enormous Game 3 victory on the road at Portland behind Steph Curry's 36 points and Draymond Green's triple-double, meaning that unless every single player on the team gets hurt and possibly dies, they have essentially booked a spot in the NBA finals for the fifth straight season. The Blazers may find their pride for a last stand in Game 4, or they may fizzle out and fade quietly, but it's almos..
