The documentarians are coming for the billionaires

A conspiracy theory I have is that social media started driving billionaires insane, and the pandemic finished the job. Social media allowed the proletariat to talk directly at the richest people in the world, and where they expected to be met with ass kissing similar to that which they receive in real life, instead they got a bunch of eye rolling jerk-off motions, and a shocking awareness (to them) that most people don’t actually like them. Then the pandemic forced them to confront a labo

Matvei Michkov arrived at the Flyers' training camp last season in very poor physical condition. He faced criticism not only from Philadelphia fans and the media but also from his own teammates.
His performances on the ice were disappointing, and it was clear that something was wrong. After losing confidence in one of their best young players, the Flyers decided to provide Michkov with intensive coaching.
In an interview in a YouTube video titled “Michkov's Vacation,” the young Russi

In just over two weeks, the regular season will come to an end. And, of course, several teams will be working hard to make the playoffs.
Which (realistic) races should we keep an eye on? Here they are.
9. Who will finish at the top of the National League?
The Dodgers are currently one and a half games behind the Brewers. Unless the Braves (five games back) or another team steps up, it'll come down to Milwaukee and L.A.
8. Who will win the American League Central?
The White Sox are two games ahea

Just imagine: Zdeno Chara with the Montreal Canadiens.
We can all agree… that would have been quite a story.
That said, Renaud Lavoie shared a rather unique story involving the former Bruins defenseman and former Canadiens general manager, Marc Bergevin. During the pandemic, when the free-agent market was completely out of the ordinary, Bergevin had tried to lure Chara to Montreal.
The problem?
Chara wanted to prioritize his family, since it was easier for him to stay in the U.S. because

I didn’t know Prime was remaking Carrie as a miniseries.That is, maybe I read a headline about it somewhere or other, but first of all, we all know a headline like ‘Amazon Prime to adapt Stephen King’s Carrie’ happens five times a day. Sometimes, something awesome comes out of an acquisition like this, sometimes it’s something mundane, and, more and more often these days, nothing happens at all, and some wizened Internet Auntie reminds us that  ‘developme

Jennifer Lawrence goes Instagram official (with herself), and you just know she already had a finsta. She is way too nosey not to have social media.
This is the perfect first video, because her ‘following’ list is already getting picked apart on the hellscape known as Twitter. But let’s not let that ruin the fun – she’ll be great on Instagram, until she gets tired of it. One thing I really think she will excel at is the comment section, she’ll be all up in eve

The New England Patriots may have to play without their top offensive receiver in their next game.
A.J. Brown, who
was playing his first official game with his new team on Wednesday, left the game against the Seattle Seahawks due to an injury to his right ankle.
According to reports by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the wide receiver appears to have suffered a sprain. Initial examinations are reassuring, however, as X-rays revealed no fractures.
The exact severity of the injury, however, remai

New York and Toronto don’t always have similar weather. But last night in Toronto was particularly gorgeous – one of those balmy, breezy nights that feels almost tropical and laughs in the face of ever needing a jacket. It was amazing and felt like you would have the energy to walk all night and stay awake forever.So when I saw Anne Hathaway posing with Dua Lipa and Lisa at the Bvlgari Serpentino event, I originally thought the breeze was just …breezy.

I'll start this article by asking you a question.
Connor Hellebuyck… where will he be traded?
In my mind, it seems like there are two logical answers: Florida (the Panthers)… or Buffalo. But maybe I'm just wrong, too.
That said, the goaltender's situation is causing a stir because he's yet ANOTHER American who wants to leave Canada. Brady Tkachuk, Matthew Tkachuk, Johnny Gaudreau, Quinn Hughes, Alex DeBrincat, Dylan Larkin, Zach Werenski…
You can't say this phenomenon is any

It is officially fashion month in the industry.  New York Fashion Week begins today, the fashion people head over to London next week, then Milan the week after, culminating in Paris at the end of the month, which is where Jonathan Anderson’s next collection for Dior spring/summer 2027 will be presented. But he and the house are getting off to an early start, pulling some online focus away from NYC to announce a new strategic vision for the brand.But before we get into that, for month

There are just three short weeks left in the 2026 Major League Baseball regular season, and while some races for the standings are taking shape, others remain extremely close.

There has been a new development in Josh Jacobs' legal case.The Green Bay Packers
running back
entered a “no contest” plea on Thursday in a Green Bay, Wisconsin, court in a case that could now have significant implications for his NFL season.
The player therefore neither admitted guilt nor claimed innocence regarding the misdemeanor charges of assault and criminal damage to property. During the hearing, Jacobs nevertheless acknowledged the seriousness of the situation and stated that

Training camp has begun in Brossard. All the Canadiens players are in town. The Habs golf tournament will take place next week, in four days.
So the season is approaching.
Aside from the fact that Martin St-Louis hasn't signed a contract extension, that Marco Marciano's situation hasn't been publicly resolved, that the Habs haven't added anyone, and that two players are still under contract, it's time to get started.
At today's practice, everyone (except Kaiden Guhle) was on the ice. And the pla

I think we’ve all known that since his brief suspension last year and this spring’s Strike Force Five reunion in support of Stephen Colbert, and just… life in general, that Jimmy Kimmel was going to face down any kind of opposition with relish and zeal and absolute banger jokes for as long as he’s allowed to make them. But it’s so nice to see that play out early and yes, often…Tuesday was Kimmel’s first night back after two months off, and he did not p

When people talk about Kirill Marchenko, the name of the Montreal Canadiens often comes up.
Of course, it's safe to assume that Kent Hughes isn't the only GM calling Ohio to try to convince Don Waddell to trade his star player.
After all, Marchenko is an attractive prospect for many teams right now.
Even though the player will hold the upper hand (if he doesn't want to sign a long-term deal somewhere, that's bound to affect the interest of the club in question), other teams are calling.
And that

It started with Matthew Tkachuk and Alex DeBrincat. We could even add Jeff Petry's name to that list.
Then came Donald Trump's second election, the Four Nations Tournament, and the Olympics. And the departures of Quinn Hughes and Brady Tkachuk…

More than 20 years after their move to Washington, the Montreal Expos are once again in the spotlight regarding a potential return to Major League Baseball, this time through expansion.
According to Jeff Passan of ESPN, the Quebec City is among the six cities in the running for the two spots available in a potential expansion in the coming years—the first such expansion since the Tampa Bay Rays and Arizona Diamondbacks joined the league in 1998.
Salt Lake City, Nashville, Raleigh, Orlando,

far less concerning than initial images might have suggested. According to reports by ESPN's Adam Schefter, Darnold underwent an MRI on Thursday morning to assess the severity of his injury.

What will Chris Kreider do in the coming hours or days?
As you know, we fully expect him to take advantage of his free agency (I don't expect him to be claimed off waivers) to choose his next team.
He can pick his team without losing a dime… the Ducks are getting out of his contract without paying a fortune, even though they're in trouble… another team will sign him with a lower cap hit… in the end, everyone stands to gain.
But where will he go?
Everyone agrees that he wants

Dear Gossips,Last night was the eTalk TIFF kickoff party, celebrating the 25th season. I arrived pretty late, as in, I missed Sarah altogether and only briefly got to see Jacek in *party attire* – but the feeling in the room was, incredibly, almost the same as it was back in the very beginning, when eTalk was a scrappy upstart staffed by a bunch of kids, fighting for red carpet access and celebrity interviews from publicists who neither knew nor cared about us or our show.That feeling of c

The Kirill Marchenko situation continues to be the talk of the town.
Will the Blue Jackets player be traded before the start of the season? I have my doubts. But it's possible that a trade could happen before the deadline.
Especially if the Ohio team gets off to a rough start.
Don Waddell, the team's GM, is in a bind. He's well aware that the Russian has absolutely no intention of staying with the team long-term and that his future therefore lies elsewhere.
Yesterday, on Jimmy Murphy and Pierre

It was inevitable.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to place Shohei Ohtani on the 15-day injured list soon.
We've been wondering for months if this was going to happen. After all, he's clearly been physically battered for a very long time.
But now it's official. His knee, arm, and neck are likely hurting too much for him to keep playing without taking a break.
After months of dealing with nagging injuries, Shohei Ohtani is finally going on the IL: https://t.co/B7IG0P60F2

So what? Would you like to see Chris Kreider come to town?
Because ever since yesterday, the topic has been all the rage. And that's no surprise: the guy wants to come back to the East and play for a good team following his split with the Ducks.
And he's still capable of holding his own.

When his contract is (inevitably) bought out this afternoon, he'll be free to sign wherever he wants. And the Canadiens' name just won't go away in this story.

The Montreal Alouettes will have to adjust their game plan ahead of their matchup against the British Columbia Lions.In particular,
