This PGA Tour pro is much more chill about an airline losing his golf clubs than you would be
From time to time, PGA Tour pros put airlines on blast for losing misplacing their golf bags. It's understandable considering these guys' jobs are on the line — just this July, Graeme McDowell missed a British Open qualifier as a result — and these rants are perhaps the closest us weekend hackers will ever truly know what it's like to be one of them. But this week, Wesley Bryan was the latest victim of a careless air carrier and he gave a totally different reaction.
Instead of complaining, Bryan thanked the unnamed airline and treated himself to a spa day:

Well played, Wes. Of course, it helps when you're staying at a resort in Mexico on a perfect day, but still, that's a pretty chill response by the winner of the 2017 RBC Heritage.
Bryan is in Playa del Carmen for this week's Mayakoba Golf Classic. If he ever gets his golf clubs, that is. If not, you can probably find him by the pool.

Aussie gambler hits on HUGE (and totally random) parlay involving Brooks Koepka’s PGA win from August
Ross Kinnaird/Getty ImagesBrooks Koepka poses with the Wanamaker Trophy after winning the 2018 PGA Championship.The problem with most gamblers is they have no discipline. When they get hot or (even worse) cold, they load up on dumb bets to try to capitalize on a heater or win it all back quickly. Poor suckers. But one Aussie gambler appears to be not only incredibly lucky, but incredibly patient.

Why Jordan Spieth recently kicked out all of his roommates (HINT: This photo)
Jordan Spieth fell to his lowest position in the Official World Golf Ranking in more than four years after a T-55 in Las Vegas last week. Considering the huge life changes he's been going through these past few months, though, remaining at No. 14 doesn't seem that bad.
Appearing at a Monday fundraiser for the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Dallas, Spieth shared some big, but exciting developments revolving around his upcoming marriage to high school sweetheart Annie Verret. Thanks to the prying questions of former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who participated in a discussion with his golfing buddy in front of an assembled crowd. (Side note: A big high-five to both for helping raise $1.3 million.)

Ahead of the wedding that's on tap for later this month, Spieth said he was “able to get most of my duties done after the FedEx tournaments” (maybe it wasn't the worst thing that he didn't qualify for the Tour Championship)..
Milan Lucic hunting down and assaulting a Tampa Bay Lightning rookie is pretty terrifying
For some context, let's begin with the hit from Tampa Bay Lightning rookie Mathieu Joseph, which was a borderline dirty play. Unfortunately, the only video we could find was on reddit, which you can watch by clicking on this link.

In real speed, I'd imagine that looked pretty bad, but in slow-mo, to be fair, it doesn't look THAT bad. It's a dangerous hit by Joseph, but I don't think he was trying to smash Kris Russell's face into the glass. Apparently, no penalty was called on Joseph, which creates a bit of a problem as that will immediately irk the Edmonton Oilers. You'll noticed Milan Lucic at the beginning of that video was quite irked, and that's where things get interesting.
A full four minutes later, Lucic practically hunted down and assaulted Joseph with a hit away from the play that certainly looked pre-meditated to anyone with two funct..
This video of Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson playing golf pong is. . . pretty disappointing
After months of hype, THE MATCH between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson is only 16 days from taking place. But the latest tease for this showdown in Las Vegas fell flatter than Phil's vertical leaping ability.

Look, despite the $19.99 Pay-Per-View price tag, we're still excited for this Nov. 23 exhibition. We're even looking forward to seeing HBO's 24/7 treatment of the event. But Tiger vs. Phil in a game of. . . golf pong? Someone actually thought this was a great idea?

Woods (probably reluctantly) retweeted the video, and Phil, who “won” 9 to 8, added this:

Only you didn't film it WITH Tiger. That's what made it so disappointing. This might have been a decent bit if the two were next to each other trading barbs and making some of those side bets Phil keeps ..
Don’t freak out, but a ‘Breaking Bad’ movie is reportedly happening
Lewis Jacobs / AMCCome on, level with us. How many times have you rewatched Breaking Bad since it bid a bloody adieu back in 2013? If the answer is any number greater than zero, you may want to sit down for this next part: According to the Hollywood Reporter, a full-length Breaking Bad movie is reportedly in the works and set to begin shooting in New Mexico later this month.
FacebookPinterestCode-named Greenbrier, there are precious few details about the project. Yes, it will be set in the broader Breaking Bad universe, but no one seems to know whether it will be a spin-off, a la Better Call Saul, or a direct continuation of the original series. Casting is also unconfirmed, but if it's the latter, [SPOILER ALERT BUT COME ON, IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT BY NOW, THAT'S ON YOU] don't expect to see an awful lot of new Ford spokesperson Bryan Cranston.

A defenseman you’ve never heard of may have scored the goal of the year on Tuesday night
(Warning: Extremely biased takes incoming)
Coming into this NHL season, I expected very little from my New York Rangers, though I was quite excited for the future. I'm a huge fan of new head coach David Quinn, and it's very refreshing to see the organization commit to an actual rebuild for once, rather than placing a band aid on things with an over-the-hill free agent signing that puts fans in the seats. If everything, and I mean every possible thing went right—ZERO injuries, Henrik Lundqvist playing out of his damn mind, Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad having career seasons, and some contributions from the teams young, hopefully future stars—maybe they could contend for one of the second wild card spots.
