Nobody Cared Until Viktor Gyökeres Put On The Mask

…so she’s reclaiming her narrative by launching a podcast. This one feels different from the other Kelce media initiatives because it’s not an ex-jock. Plus, she’s teasing special guests. Taylor Swift has to be the first one, right?

Kim Ng broke barriers as MLB’s first female general manager. Now she’s breaking ground on the “Major League Baseball for softball” with the start of the AUSL. Another great sign for women’s sports.

Music and soccer go hand-in-hand, so here are the 15 best songs to hear at a game. Personally, there’s nothing more liberating than belting “Freed From Desire” after a win.

It’s an amazing time to be a wrestling fan. With so much young talent across different companies, this 30 under 30 list is lighting up the group chats. Rhea Ripley and Logan Paul should be higher!

In an overproduced world, rodeo has stood firm in its authenticity. It’s attracting Western lifestyle fashion trends, and the opportunity for the sport to be a mainstream player. Giddy up!

Nobody cared until Viktor Gyökeres put on the mask. With a little inspiration from ‘The Dark Knight Rises’, the Sporting CP superstar is now one of soccer’s most wanted men.

He is necessary evil. Gyökeres went from playing second-tier English football two years ago, to facing Arsenal in the Champions League as the tournament’s top goalscorer – terrorizing his opponents with his patent “Bane mask” celebration.

The shadows betray you, because they belong to Gyökeres. The Swedish international’s trademark mask has become a global phenomenon. Giannis recently broke it out after a Bucks victory. Even kids are doing it too in the most adorable fashion.

Let’s not stand on ceremony here, Mr. Wayne. Every club is fighting to sign Gyökeres this summer, including,  rumor has it, Barcelona, Manchester United and even Arsenal.  They’ll need to pay a king’s ransom for the hottest striker in the world.

Now is not the time for fear… That comes later. All we can do is enjoy this incredible season Gyökeres is having, and pray for the clubs that stand in his way.

Speak of Gyökeres, and he shall appear.

We’ve never seen anything quite like Jared McCain. The lovable Sixers sensation is dropping buckets and making viral TikToks. Wherever he’s at, though, the rookie’s nails are always on point.

McCain started getting manicures in high school, and kept painting his nails after a great game. It’s part of a recent male grooming trend, symbolizing self-care, that features rising stars like McCain and Caleb Williams.

Y’all have been asking. @Sally Hansen is the GOAT 🐐! There’s no better nail polish in the game 💅💅 #SallyHansenPartner

The nails are immaculate for his massive TikTok following, where McCain creates the latest viral dances viewed by millions. One recent dance is a hit among NFL superstars like Jayden Daniels, AJ Brown and Saquon Barkley, who’ve used it as touchdown celebrations.

A+ effort 🤣 #nfl #nfltiktok #nflfunny 1k_watts

McCain’s nails and dances have never impacted his game. And his game matches his personality. He was a star at Duke, and he’s already proclaiming himself as Rookie of the Year. The backcourt duo of McCain and Tyrese Maxey could be the Gen-Z Splash Brothers with their entertaining playing styles.

The Manicure Mamba is the NBA rookie to watch this season – on the court and on social media.
