MATCHDAY 1

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patience is running out in Motor City&lt;/strong&gt;. The &lt;strong&gt;Detroit Red Wings&lt;/strong&gt; have gotten off to a terrible first half of the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nhl&quot;&gt;NHL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;season and have made a big decision before their playoffs chances slip away.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-red-wings&quot;&gt;Red Wings&lt;/a&gt; have missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs in its last eight seasons&lt;/strong&gt;. Fans are desperate for success as the team’s core looks promising every season, but is unable to get over the hump. &lt;strong&gt;It’s become a tendency in Mo-town&lt;/strong&gt;, lots of talk during the offseason, but production runs short when it’s go-time.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Red Wings have many stars in their roster, &lt;strong&gt;with the likes of Dylan Larkin, Moritz Seider, Patrick Kane, and Lucas Raymond&lt;/strong&gt;, however, they seem to be lacking what it takes to make the postseason year after year. &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Through 34 games in the 2024-25 NHL season, &lt;strong&gt;Detroit is sitting in second-to-last place in the Atlantic Division with a 13-17-4 record&lt;/strong&gt;. The Red Wings were headed in a grim alley, so General Manager Steven Yzerman stepped in to make a critical decision.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Detroit announced a coaching change, in hopes of turning their lackluster season around. &lt;strong&gt;The Red Wings have moved on from Derek Lalonde, naming Todd McLellan as head coach&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nhl/all-32-nhl-teams-by-social-media-popularity&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;“&lt;em&gt;Detroit Red Wings Executive Vice President and General Manager Steve Yzerman today announced that the team has&lt;strong&gt; named Todd McLellan as the 29th Head Coach&lt;/strong&gt; in franchise history and signed him to a multi-year contract,&lt;/em&gt;” the team stated.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Familiar face behind the bench&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Under head coach Mike Babcock in 2005, Todd McLellan served as an assistant coach for the Red Wings. He was tasked with handling the Red Wings’ forwards and managing the team’s power play, which became the top-ranked power play in the NHL. In 2008, &lt;strong&gt;McLellan won his first Stanley Cup as assistant coach with Detroit.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;McLellan returns to Mo-town after coaching the Los Angeles Kings&lt;/strong&gt; since February 2019. Despite signing a contract extension with the Kings in 2023, &lt;strong&gt;McLellan was fired by the Kings in February 2024&lt;/strong&gt;. He is now back behind the home bench at Little Caesars Arena.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Detroit hopes McLellan can get this team running once they return to the ice on December 27 against the Toronto Maple Leafs. &lt;strong&gt;The Red Wings are eight points behind the last wildcard berth &lt;/strong&gt;and will need a strong stretch prior to the Four-Nations Faceoff break to get back in the mix for the Stanley Cup Playoffs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;McLellan faces a tall order as he is expected to snap the team’s postseason hex. Detroit last played a Stanley Cup Playoff game during the 2015-16 season.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The off-season is bringing some unusual moves for players making their first steps in the &lt;strong&gt;MLB&lt;/strong&gt;. Such is the case for a player on the team of &lt;strong&gt;Clayton McCullough&lt;/strong&gt;, the new manager of the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/miami-marlins&quot;&gt;Miami Marlins&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Some players have long careers and go through several stages before making their major league debut, but the first few games in &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; don’t always translate into a chance to settle down, so leaving in free agency is an opportunity. &lt;strong&gt;In this case, it happened to a Marlins player.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;McCullough’s Marlins player leaving Miami &lt;strong&gt;is none other than Jonathan Bermudez&lt;/strong&gt;, who has been signed by the Rakuten Monkeys of the Chinese Professional Baseball League. The move was confirmed by MLB insider Jon Heyman on his X account (formerly Twitter).&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;When did Bermudez make his MLB debut for the Marlins?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Bermudez made his MLB debut for the Marlins &lt;strong&gt;on 27 August 2024, pitching relief innings against the Colorado Rockies&lt;/strong&gt;. The left-hander player posted an 8.10 ERA in three appearances with the Miami franchise that season.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-large&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1024&quot; height=&quot;576&quot; src=&quot;https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241226_BUS_300931_Clayton-McCullough-1-1024x576_62d51264.webp&amp;amp;width=1024&amp;amp;height=576&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-300954&quot; srcset=&quot;https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26143534/Clayton-McCullough-1.jpg 1920w&quot; sizes=&quot;(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt;Clayton McCullough being presented as new Marlins manager&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Bermudez’s MLB Career&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Bermudez came to MLB after being selected by the Houston Astros in the 23rd round of the 2018 draft. From there, he spent part of his first few seasons in the minor leagues. &lt;strong&gt;In August 2022, the San Francisco Giants claimed him off waivers and he was released in March 2023 &lt;/strong&gt;without appearing in any games for the team. Bermudez joined the Marlins on a minor league contract.&lt;/p&gt;


        

        

        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/mlb/aaron-judge-net-worth&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;The 29-year-old left-handed pitcher will have a new opportunity in the Chinese league, away from Clayton McCullough’s Marlins. &lt;strong&gt;Bermudez’s goal will be to get back to the solid numbers he showed for most of his minor league career.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For the past 15 years, few could argue against &lt;strong&gt;LeBron James &lt;/strong&gt;and &lt;strong&gt;Stephen Curry&lt;/strong&gt; being the dominant forces in the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nba&quot;&gt;NBA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Their legacies are marked by championships, individual accolades, and the admiration of fans, analysts, and peers alike. However, &lt;strong&gt;Phoenix Suns’ Kevin Durant&lt;/strong&gt; believes the current title of the world’s best player belongs to someone else within the league.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Speaking in a postgame interview with &lt;em&gt;ESPN &lt;/em&gt;on the Footprint Center court following the Suns’ 110-100 victory over the &lt;strong&gt;Denver Nuggets&lt;/strong&gt; on Christmas, Durant emphasized the significance of the win, praising the opposition’s superstar. &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“They got arguably the best player in the world, a top 10 player of all time in Jokic,” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;he said.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;KD’s high praise for &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/Nikola-Jokic&quot;&gt;Nikola Jokic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; carries double significance. First, it positions Jokic atop the league’s current player hierarchy, ahead of names like LeBron James, Stephen Curry, &lt;strong&gt;Jayson Tatum, Luka Doncic, Victor Wembanyama&lt;/strong&gt;, and even himself. Second, it cements Jokic’s place in NBA history, aligning him with legendary figures like &lt;strong&gt;Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, &lt;/strong&gt;and &lt;strong&gt;Kobe Bryant.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-durant&quot;&gt;Durant&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; himself had a standout performance on Wednesday night, contributing 27 points to the Suns’ victory. Meanwhile, LeBron James and Stephen Curry also delivered impressive displays during the &lt;strong&gt;Los Angeles Lakers&lt;/strong&gt;‘ clash with the &lt;strong&gt;Golden State Warriors&lt;/strong&gt;. Reflecting on the enduring greatness of the trio, Durant remarked, &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“There’s so many great talents in this league. It’s not just us three.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Phoenix superstar didn’t hold back in acknowledging the talent on display. &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“You see Jokic tonight. You see a Hall of Famer, an icon in Russ (Russell Westbrook) out here tonight,”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; he said. &lt;em&gt;“You see so many young players around the league today. It was an amazing day for basketball. I’m grateful I was able to play today on this great day, entertain the fans, and get a win at home.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Durant, Curry, James: The twilight of an era&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;As &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james&quot;&gt;LeBron James&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; approaches his 40th birthday, and with Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry at 36, the trio represents the final chapter of an NBA era. Despite the rise of younger stars, they continue to play pivotal roles for their respective teams.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;All three remain among the league’s top performers. Durant ranks eighth in scoring this season, averaging 27.1 points per game for the Phoenix Suns. LeBron James follows at 26th with 23.5 points per game, while &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry&quot;&gt;Curry&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is 29th, averaging 22.5.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nba/suns-kevin-durant-gets-real-on-fierce-rivalries-with-lebron-james-and-stephen-curry-in-the-nba&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

        

        


&lt;h2&gt;Jokic’s dominance&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While Durant, LeBron, and Curry’s numbers remain exceptional, Nikola Jokic’s stats are otherworldly. Widely regarded as the best player in the league right now, Jokic ranks second in scoring (30.7 points per game), third in assists (9.4), and fourth in rebounds (12.6). His unparalleled versatility and impact on every facet of the game fully justify Durant’s declaration.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Texas Longhorns are having a season for the ages&lt;/strong&gt;. Ahead of the CFP quartefinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl against the Arizona State Sun Devils, a star teammate of &lt;strong&gt;Quinn Ewers and Arch Manning&lt;/strong&gt; was awarded a &lt;strong&gt;prestigious award in &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/college-football&quot;&gt;college football&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Texas has built a talented roster&lt;/strong&gt;, showcasing the firepower on its program on every outing. Even when the Longhorns aren’t playing, teams in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ncaa&quot;&gt;NCAA&lt;/a&gt; are reminded of this fact.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/quinn-ewers&quot;&gt;Ewers&lt;/a&gt; and Manning may attract most of the spotlights in Austin, they are surrounded by top talents in the nation. Prior to the Longhorns clash with the Sun Devils, a teammate of the star quarterbacks has received a high distinction for freshmans in the league.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While many believe Longhorns edge rusher &lt;strong&gt;Colin Simmons&lt;/strong&gt; was snubbed of the SEC Freshman of the Year award (won by as &lt;strong&gt;South Carolina Gamecocks QB LaNorris Sellers),&lt;/strong&gt; he has instead received another major distinction. Simmons was&lt;strong&gt; named the 2024 Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Though &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arch-manning&quot;&gt;Arch Manning&lt;/a&gt; is the most famous freshman in the Texas program and could have easily been in the conversation for the award had he played more games, &lt;strong&gt;Simmons has put on a dominant season during his first year at The Forty Acres.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Simmons registers &lt;strong&gt;39 total tackles, eight sacks, three forced fumbles and an interception.&lt;/strong&gt; The freshman edge rusher thrives in the most critical moments, registering his lone interception during the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/texas-longhorns&quot;&gt;Longhorns&lt;/a&gt;‘ first round matchup with the Clemson Tigers. Moreover, Simmons tallied six of his eight sacks against SEC rivals.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Past winners of the Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year award&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Though the award is relatively new (it was first awarded in 2018), &lt;strong&gt;its resume is impressive as some very big names have hoisted it&lt;/strong&gt;. Clemson Tigers iconic quarterback &lt;strong&gt;Trevor Lawrence&lt;/strong&gt; was the first to win the award for his 2018 season. Since Lawrence, North Carolina’s &lt;strong&gt;Drake Maye&lt;/strong&gt; has been the only QB to win it for his freshman campaign in 2022.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Full list of winners:&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;2018: &lt;strong&gt;Trevor Lawrence&lt;/strong&gt;, Clemson Tigers QB&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2019: &lt;strong&gt;Kenneth Gainwell&lt;/strong&gt;, Memphis Tigers RB&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2020: &lt;strong&gt;Will Anderson Jr&lt;/strong&gt;, Alabama Crimson Tide EDGE&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2021: &lt;strong&gt;Brock Bowers&lt;/strong&gt;, Georgia Bulldogs TE&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2022: &lt;strong&gt;Drake Maye&lt;/strong&gt;, North Carolina Tar Heels QB&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2023: &lt;strong&gt;Caleb Downs&lt;/strong&gt;, Alabama Crimson Tide S&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2024: &lt;strong&gt;Colin Simmons&lt;/strong&gt;, Texas Longhorns EDGE&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Simmons is named to the SEC’s All-Freshman Team&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Simmons was the only player of the burnt orange to be named to the SEC’s All-Freshman Team&lt;/strong&gt; for the 2024 season. Needless to say, Simmons became the first ever Longhorns player to make this team, since this was Texas’ first season in the Southeastern Conference.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Rumors of a possible showdown between &lt;strong&gt;Jake Paul &lt;/strong&gt;and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/conor-mcgregor&quot;&gt;Conor McGr&lt;/a&gt;egor &lt;/strong&gt;have rocked the &lt;strong&gt;boxing&lt;/strong&gt; world. After McGregor announced a preliminary agreement to face &lt;strong&gt;Logan Paul,&lt;/strong&gt; reports emerged suggesting that Jake was the true target of the Ambani family.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The rumors of a bout with UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria are false,” &lt;/em&gt;McGregor wrote. &lt;em&gt;“&lt;strong&gt;I am in preliminary agreements with the Ambani family to face Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition in India. I have agreed.&lt;/strong&gt; I will then seek my return to the Octagon.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;However, things have taken an unexpected turn. According to an &lt;em&gt;ESPN KnockOut &lt;/em&gt;report,&lt;em&gt; Salvador Rodriguez&lt;/em&gt; tweeted about a possible change in plans, stating: &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Jake Paul vs. Conor McGregor on the table for July, August, or September 2025 in India…”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What Did Jake Paul Say About the Fight Against McGregor?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jake-paul&quot;&gt;Jake Paul&lt;/a&gt;, aware of the growing speculation, broke his silence with a cryptic message on his X account: &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Shhh.” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;This followed an earlier statement where the young boxer made it clear that he would only consider a fight with McGregor if the UFC and&lt;strong&gt; Dana White&lt;/strong&gt; were directly involved in the negotiations.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;510&quot; height=&quot;162&quot; src=&quot;https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241226_BUS_300832_Jake-Paul-10_4c129ded.webp&amp;amp;width=510&amp;amp;height=162&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-300826&quot; srcset=&quot;https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26111433/Jake-Paul-10.jpg 510w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/26111433/Jake-Paul-10-300x95.jpg 300w&quot; sizes=&quot;(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Now it all makes sense why Conor McGregor and his management team have been desperately trying to get MVP to negotiate for a fight between us,” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Paul wrote in a previous tweet. &lt;em&gt;“As we told them privately &amp;amp; I’m now saying it publicly… The only way we’re willing to explore me vs. Conor in a pro boxing/MMA fight is if Dana White/UFC are at the table directly or make it clear they are ok with discussions. Conor is washed. Needs the Pauls. Logan by however he wants.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
