The NHL is playing a very dangerous game when it markets its stars as sex symbols and it’s only going to bring more of the attention he’s trying to avoid. The innuendos in this article are gross. Respect him as a player.
In addition to being the NHL’s next big star, Macklin Celebrini also possesses heartthrob looks; he appears, essentially, like he could have been cast in Heated Rivalry or Off Campus—the ultra-popular romance shows that have recently used the world of hockey as a backdrop for steamy love stories.
As his profile has risen, he has become an unwitting target of intrigue, fascination, and parasocial projection among those series’ many (mostly female) viewers, who are eager to find examples of, or at least hopeful stand-ins for, their fictional fantasies in the real world.
It’s an unexpected—or at least ancillary—form of attention, one that he’s still getting used to. “There’s been times where it’s a little much,” Celebrini admits when asked if fans have behaved out of bounds. He says he gets the occasional crazy DM.
“But I think you’ve got to just always obviously be calm and kind of just handle whatever gets thrown at you.” gq.visitlink.me/ZV1p8v

Just when I thought I’ve seen it all GQ publishes the worst article you will ever read. This is disgusting. Stop sexualizing male athletes to appeal to the internet weirdos man.
First those Spotify books with McDavid and now this. Nobody that’s mentally stable wants this stuff

I like this bet by the Oilers. They clearly value Filip Hallander’s production in Europe and AHL and he’s produced when given a small chance in Pittsburgh. Welcome to Oil Country!
TRADE 🔄 The #Oilers have acquired forward Filip Hallander from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for defenceman Spencer Stastney.

The NFL has rescinded the $14,926 fine it imposed on 49ers FB Kyle “Juice” Juszczyk for what it thought was a distasteful celebration of chugging a beer. The league said it was withdrawing the fine “because his celebration was simulating drinking a juice box, not a beer….Mr. Juszczyk finally stated that the fine is hypocritical with the amount of Bud Light sponsorships surrounding the NFL.” Fine rescinded.

No idea what shoulder stickiness means, maybe stiffness? Either way not great for the Padres star reliever.
Let’s hope Morejon can give you 3 outs tomorrow and another 3-6 on Friday. We need the Cuban flamethrower🇨🇺
Adrian Morejon was unavailable, Craig Stammen confirms. “Stickiness in his shoulder,” he said. Still a chance he’s available in Game 4.

Say it ain’t so, I will not go. Turn the lights on, carry me home.
ALT Padres Win Graphic. The background of the graphic is a brown sky with palm trees. A logo at the top of the graphic reads “MLB | 2026 | NLDS | Booking.com”. Below that is today’s final score of Game 3: Padres 4, Brewers 3. In the center of the graphic, large gold text reads “WIN”. In front of the text, there are photos of Manny Machado and Jake Cronenworth in the Padres home white pinstripe uniform. There is a small “Fight For The Faithful” logo at the bottom of the graphic.

Gotta be lucky to be good, and gotta be good to get lucky but holy smokes the Brewers have horseshoes up every players ass I swear

The NBC Wild Card broadcast with Kershaw for the Padres & Cubs was light years better than this Fox Sports NLDS broadcast. It’s like a perfect example on how to broadcast vs how not to broadcast

Playing the Brewers feels like getting in a knife fight with an Indonesian assassin. About 1000 ways they can beat you
