- The Ball Boys and Ball Girls works the 2 weeks of this year Wimbledon Tennis Tournament will be paid: $250, $500, or No Cash? (Ball Boys & Girls are paid $250-$275 plus, tickets, Ralph Lauren uniforms, meals, & the prestige of working 10 to 15 matches at Wimbledon – Players are demanding 22% of revnues – 15% up from last year to 20% $64.2 Million this year but still not happy because they want $93 Million 22% – Wimbledon generates $400 to $500 Million in revenue with $300 to $350 Million to pull the tournament off – just for comparison PGA signature events have an average purse $20 Million purse this year 2026)
- The first NBA player to make $1 Million a year was: Lew Alcindor or Bill Walton? (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) (In 1979 Moses Malone and Bill Walton signed $1 Million contracts on the same day)
- 39 players have made 6, 3-pointers in an NBA Finals game – MJ, LeBron, & Kobe are or are not on the list of 39? (Each made 6, 3’s in an NBA Finals game 1 time – Stephen Curry did it 12 times, Clay Thompson 4 times, Danny Green 3 times, Ray Allen 2 times and 32 others as well)
- New York Knicks Guard Jalen Brunson does not eat pork or bacon for athletic or religious reasons? (Brunson at Villanove eliminated prok and all red meat from his diet during his days at Villanova to improve his stamina, boost morning energy & recover more quickly after games)
- It has been said that Larry Bird & Magic Johnson saved the NBA – which future Hall of Famer signed the bigger NBA rookie contract: Bird or Magic? (Magic 3yr $2.6 Mil/Bird 5yr $3.25 Mil)
- This NBA legend cost himself an estimated $5 Billion dollars when he turned down an offer from NIKE his rookie yr to sign a shoe deal with Converse was it: Magic Johnson or Allen Iverson?
- Of the 449 NBA Finals games throught out history – how many times has a player scored 50 points or more: 7 or 14? (1958 Bob Petite 50, 1962 Elgin Baylor 61, 1967 Rick Barry 55, 1969 Jerry West 53, 1993 Michael Jordan 55, 2018 LeBron James 51, 2021 Giannis Antetokounmpo 50)
- How many NBA teams have shown interest in acquiring LeBron James for next season more or less than 5? (LeBron’s agent shared this week that he had been contacted by 10 to 12 teams wanting to know what it would take to get LeBron – this proves there are 10 teams that have lost their minds – you will first have to pay LeBron a max contract and also match what the Lakers are paying his son Brony because he’s coming too. Here’s my prediction – LeBron will be with the Lakers this next year and get his much desired farewell tour and then the Lakers will be rid of the man that kept them from winning more titles – yes, he’s a great player but the Lakers let him try to build a team to win and his efforts were a disaster. You do however, have to give Lakers management applause for what they have been able to assemble, being hand-cuffed by LeBron’s plus Brony’s max-contract plus. He needs to go to Cleveland take less money and allow them a chance to grab another good player or 2 and give LeBron a real chance to win one last title in the town that loves him, but probably shouldn’t – at least as much)
- At last week’s PGA Canadian Open – American Wyndam Clark strolled onto the Par 3 14th tee box and trolled the Canadian crowd by wearing a Team USA hockey jersey – the move garnered Boos & Ill-Wishes from on-lookers – even most Canadians gave his props for going on birdie the hole amid all the boos – but do you remember the number on the Hockey Jersey was it 68 or 86? (Forward/Center Jack Hughes #86 – Clark was trying to buy jersey and have it delivered to the course but couldn’t get it done in time – during the Friday round he spotted a fan in the crowd wearing the USA Hockey Jersey and bought it from him after the round)
