Sexism has plagued surfing for generations.
Now, a rape allegation has led to a reckoning.

Ray Emery’s ashes are kept inside a tiny box, just 15 minutes from Canadian Tire Centre.
His parents moved back to Ottawa as part of their grieving process.
On Thursday, the Emery family will ring the bell inside the CTC — to launch the home opener.

From the #Gr8:
ALT My family and I decided this summer that this will be my final year in the NHL. I love this game so much, but I know in my heart it’s the right decision. It was important for me to make this announcement before our first home game, so I have the chance to thank all the people around the game, everyone who has been so important to me and my family and helped me through good times and tough losses. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve everything I have in my life without them. I am excited about this season with my teammates, and we will do everything we can to make this year special. I am going to enjoy every moment with my family, my boys, our fans and everyone who has been part of my hockey career. See you Wednesday, babes!

ASU placed Greg Powers on leave yesterday, but some argue that it’s only a half-measure:
“Putting Powers on leave while his best friend of the last decade (assistant coach Alex Hicks) stays in charge of the locker room doesn’t solve the problem.”

Forty-one days after a team workout left a player on life support, Arizona State put men's hockey coach Greg Powers on leave.
The coach tabbed to run the team in his place was arrested for DUI in 2024: "I’m going to lose my job if I blow into that."

Five cities. Fifteen days. @_Brian_Hamilton tails Caitlin Clark at the apex of fame (and plenty of furor).
"Taylor Swift 2.0," her coach calls her.
"She’s a 24-year-old young adult still figuring the world out," says her college coach.

Can Caitlin Clark just play basketball?
Over 15 days in five cities, and one phone call about her garden, I tried to find out.

This, from @BFQuinn, is outstanding.
“Eli, God love him, would listen to him.”
Behind Duncan Robinson’s unlikely ascent to the NBA was a hidden second life — a decade spent as a quiet lifeline to his struggling brother.

Katie Strang, the absolute best at what she does in sports journalism and a great human as well.

This story is a credit to @D_Bo20 and the Robinson Family. They want to tell you about Eli. They're hoping it helps others.
It's worth remembering: “Maybe we can all be a little less certain about knowing what someone is going through."

Arizona State hockey players are still reeling from watching Matthew Mayich collapse during a team workout.
And almost every day, they interact with the coach who approved the training session, while their teammate remains on life support.
