NY Post
If nothing else, Francisco Lindor’s first 43 games in a Mets uniform have offered an expedited education on his new fan base.
“I think they’re booing because of the results,” Lindor said Saturday. “I don’t think it’s that they don’t like me. I think it’s because of the results, because when I come down to the dugout and I have a baseball in my hands, they all go crazy. It’s the same person that’s booing me. “I’m starting to understand this.”

The city of Philadelphia rightly showered Saquon Barkley with plenty of brotherly love on Friday, and the former Giants star gave it back to Eagles fans and staffers throughout their championship parade and celebration.
SAN FRANCISCO – A formality was made official Friday night when Carmelo Anthony, arguably the greatest Knick since Patrick Ewing, was named a finalist for the Naismith Hall of Fame.

These first five paragraphs will be utilized to praise the Knicks, so if you are among that faction who prefers to ignore all the good that’s transpired over the first 54 games of this season, you have my permission to proceed to paragraph six, no hard feelings, no questions asked.
The Chiefs are giving their star tight end a deadline to inform them of his future plans.
MONTREAL — For Team USA, it was a poor start and a grand Finnish.
Nothing truly will be decided nor accurately measured until the Knicks prove they can defeat the NBA’s most elite teams and advance deeper into the playoffs.
Travis Kelce once yelled in celebration, quoting the Beastie Boys: “You got to fight, for your right, to party.”
