The TEN<\/p><\/div>\n

(\u201cThe TEN\u201d is not a top ten but ten items worth being included in \u201cThe TEN\u201d)<\/p>\n

1\u2014San Antonio Spurs win Game Three of the NBA Finals, 115-111, at Madison Square Garden. New York Knicks lead series 2-1.<\/p>\n

2\u2014The Lakers beat the Boston Celtics 111-100 in game six of the NBA Finals and break the Celtic curse and win the NBA title on this day in 1985.<\/p>\n

3\u2014The Brewers defeated the Athletics last night (6\/8\/26), 15-14. The Las Vegas-bound A\u2019s hit seven home runs. Milwaukee slugged four, but it was Christian Yelich\u2019s run in the top of the 12th that made the difference.<\/p>\n

4\u2014\u201cDo you know what Google is? It can provide answers to many of your questions, if you are genuinely interested in the answers. Or, are you playing the willfully ignorant edge-lord that is \u2018just asking\u2019 to avoid any real consequences to the questions that you ask? This sort of writing style is ignorant and just not funny. Your comments on the WNBA are dripping with misogyny and tiresome. And your dogwhistle comments on \u2018politics in June\u2019 reveal your homophobia. Have you tried renaming your article to hateview? For a self-professed man of god, you sure seem to hate a lot of things. And your use of Matthew 18:10\u2013are you being ironic?\u201d\u2014MVS commenter \u201cProverbs 12:1\u201d<\/p>\n

5\u2014The Carolina Hurricanes face the Las Vegas Golden Knights tonight in Game Three of the Stanley Cup Final. VGK leads the series, 2-1.<\/p>\n

6\u2014\u201cBeing in the room with him (Matthew Stafford) is just, you know, such a blessing, and I really appreciate him and Stetson [Bennett] taking me in and answering all the questions I have. I know I’m probably annoying them, but it’s been really helpful, so I can’t thank them enough.\u201d\u2014Rams rookie QB Ty Simpson<\/p>\n

7\u2014\u201cWhen I feel it, I shoot it. When I don\u2019t feel it, I shoot it anyway.\u201d\u2014Leonard \u201cTruck\u201d Robinson<\/p>\n

8\u2014Dick Vitale turns 86 today.<\/p>\n

9\u2014\u201cBig KAT is taking his a$$ to the woodshed, plain and simple.\u201d\u2014Charles Barkley on Karl-Anthony Towns success against Victor Wembanyama at halftime of Game Two on Friday night.<\/p>\n

10\u2014”Off balance! Unbelievable! Connecticut wins their first Big East Championship. This group of people! Dance, Jimmy, baby! Dance, Jimmy, baby!\u201d\u2014Dick Vitale in 1996 after Ray Allen\u2019s off-balance game winner gives UConn a 75-74 victory over Georgetown for the Big East title. (In actuality it was the Huskies second.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
