Happy Gilmore' seems to be the most recent decades-old film to get a reboot. A sequel to Adam Sandler's slapstick golf film is in the works, as revealed by legendary sportscaster-turned-podcaster Dan Patrick, although a final product is hardly imminent. When Christopher McDonald, the veteran actor who played Gilmore's rival golfer in the original, told 92.3 The Fan in Cleveland that he had seen a rough draft, he first tipped off fans last week. Patrick, who has appeared in no fewer than ten Sandler films, responded to the news by texting his friend Sandler to ask how much time he should wait for in 2024 for a Gilmore sequel. Sandler replied a few days later as retold on Patrick's eponymous podcast.' 'But I'll tell you when there's a script.' I'm still learning a lot about it.'

'We're proud to announce that our bill shields girls from sexually explicit drag shows (S.B. ). (assassination of 12) is confirmed to the Governor's desk,' he tweeted. These performances are clearly ineffective for minors, and we will not encourage children to be sexualized nor preyed upon in Texas.'

During ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball simulcast, Alex Rodriguez's on-again, off-again bromance with Derek Jeter was back in the spotlight, as the two former New York Yankees teammates revealed a hug and announced that they'd cut their beef because of "a lot of cocktails." When Rodriguez was a member of the Seattle Mariners in the late 1990s, the two were often compared to each other as budding All-Star shortstops. Rodriguez was asked about Jeter by Esquire in 2001 and appeared to shame other Yankees for the team's success rather than his friend. While promoting his self-produced autobiographical docuseries, The Captain, alongside Kay and Rodriguez, seemed to put the feud in the rearview mirror on Sunday: 'You move ahead, you learn.'
