Tom Brady is indisputably the greatest player in the history of the NFL. He has won seven Super Bowl titles and when the season starts in September, he will be 44 years old. Based on his goals, it seems as though we will only get two more seasons of Brady until he finally decides to retire. Until then, Brady promises to remain at the top of his game as he looks to win an eighth title and make all of his haters weep for one last time.

Prior to the season, Brady has been working extremely hard to keep his body in shape and he has also been doing some accuracy exercises to show the fans that he’s still got it. After all, in order to be a successful QB in the NFL, you have to know how to place the ball, and Brady can do exactly that on any given day.

In a new video posted to social media, Brady can be seen throwing a ball into a throwing machine with pinpoint accuracy. The entire visual is quite impressive and even if you’re not a football fan, or let alone a Brady fan, you can’t help but admit that this is pretty cool.

Interestingly enough, it appears as though the video was heavily edited. Brady tagged video creator Ari Fararooy in his post, who then reposted the video on his own IG while tagging various CGI and effects artists. With this in mind, there is no disputing that this video was manipulated in a way that would make Brady look like a wizard.

Even if the video isn’t 100 percent real, there is no doubt that Brady is ready for the upcoming season. Only time will tell whether or not he can match the magic of last season’s Super Bowl run.

Joe Burrow came into the NFL last season with very few expectations placed upon his shoulders. This wasn’t because he isn’t good but because the Cincinnati Bengals have proven themselves to be football purgatory over the last 20 years. The team can’t seem to win playoff games and when the team has an off year, they are usually at the bottom of the standings. Despite all of this, Burrow proved himself to be an incredible rookie as he threw some phenomenal touchdown passes all while showcasing an ability to read defenses.

Unfortunately for Burrow and the Bengals, things came crashing down as Burrow suffered an ACL tear after a bad hit. The team’s offensive line was horrendous throughout the season, and it ultimately cost their new quarterback his season.

Over the last year, Burrow has been working on his ACL so that he can progress towards a full recovery. The Bengals are going to need Burrow this season if they want a shot at contending, and as it turns out, they have gotten some incredible news.

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Burrow will be fully available for training camp, and that there will be no restrictions on his workload. Simply put, he’ll be playing Week 1 this season.

If you follow Bun B on Instagram, chances are you’re familiar with just how much he loves to cook. The Houston legend is always cheffin’ up and shares videos titled, “Trill Mealz” where he breaks down some of his favorite recipes. Needless to say, he’s just as much of a foodie as he is an MC these days, though he hasn’t necessarily made a full leap into the culinary world. That is, until now.

In partnership with Andy Nguyen of Afters Ice Cream and Dough and Arrow and siblings, Patsy and Benson Vivares of Sticky’s Chicken, Bun B just announced the launch of his first restaurant venture with Trill Burgers. The rapper will be launching Trill Burgers in Houston in hopes to bring California’s trendy smashburger to his hometown. 

“For years I’ve been fascinated with the culinary scene, trying to find the best entry point for me,” Bun B said in a post on Instagram. “Today I can say I’ve found it. Join me in welcoming @trillburgers to the world! Follow us for more info on our next pop ups and watch as we take you on the burger ride of your life! Brick and mortar coming soon! @andythenguyen @bensonjohn @simplypatsy @nickscurfield let’s go.”

With their first pop-up restaurant at Sticky’s in August, Trill Burgers are gearing up to launch their first brick-and-mortar spot.

With the Tokyo Olympics well underway, basketball fans have been tuning in religiously to see which countries are looking good throughout the round-robin tournament. As many of you already know, the United States lost its very first game today as the men’s team fell 83-76 to France in a shocking turn of events. Team USA ran out of gas in the fourth quarter and it was a pretty sad sight to see, especially since Team USA hasn’t lost an Olympic match since 2004.

Players like Kevin Durant struggled and it’s quite obvious to everyone watching that this Team USA squad simply doesn’t have the chemistry necessary to go far in the tournament. Unless things turn around quickly, there is a good shot this team is eliminated early on.

As for the halftime entertainment, fans were greeted by a seven-foot robot that is programmed to take shots from the free-throw line, the three-point line, and even the halfcourt line. This robot originally made its debut back in 2019 and it has returned in time for the Tokyo Olympics. In the video clips below, you can see the robot makes each shot with ease and it always results in a swoosh. Needless to say, the programmers outdid themselves with this one.

This robot has a very uncanny feel to it and you can’t help but be just a bit terrified at how accurately it shoots the ball. As many fans pointed out, this thing needs to be destroyed, and we can’t help but agree with that sentiment.

You can see the reactions to the robot down below.

Kanye West’s DONDA listening party in Atlanta has proven to be a polarizing event in Ye’s career. Fans who attended the event had to wait two whole hours before he made his way to the floor, and in the end, the album was presented as an incomplete body of work. Verses and drums were missing from the project and fans immediately took notice of this. Regardless, there were plenty of interesting songs on the album and once Kanye delivers his final tweaks, there is no denying that DONDA will be a project for the ages.

For many, the features are what ultimately stole the show as artists like Pusha T, Travis Scott, Pop Smoke, Vory, Chris Brown, Playboi Carti, and even Baby Keem were heard throughout the project. Perhaps the most complete song on the entire album was “Praise God,” which is an effort that features both Travis and Keem.

Baby Keem is an artist who is on the rise and there is no doubt that he has a ton of potential to become a superstar if he continues on this trajectory. Kanye has always had an ear for talent, and including Keem on the album is yet another example of Ye’s scouting ability. Not to mention, it just goes to show how talented Baby Keem is at such a young age.

In the tweet below, Keem thanked Kanye for the opportunity of a lifetime, while also praising the artist for his contributions to the rap world. “Ye an Idol, an Icon. Forever grateful for the experience of a lifetime,” Keem wrote.

With DONDA set to release on August 6th, fans are eager to hear the finished version of “Praise God,” although at least we have some snippets to go off of in the interim.

It looks like we could be getting a follow-up to Danny Brown’s Uknowhatimsayin? in the near future. The rapper has maintained a busy schedule throughout 2021, though largely as the head honcho of Bruiser Brigade. We’ve been receiving several projects from the camp over the course of the year and it looks like they could be leading up to Danny’s next studio album.

Danny Brown was on Twitter at the wee hours of the morning when he dropped a major update on his next project. The rapper revealed that his new album is done but it won’t be dropping anytime in the next few months. “Done and waiting on the seasons to change cause this ain’t no summertime album,” he wrote along with a prayer hand emoji.

He’s been active on Twitch recently and he’s been dropping snippets of the project during his streams. He recently unveiled the whole thing on his stream but it seems that there’s still tinkering that needs to be done. Danny explained that he wrapped up his vocals for the project, though there’s still other work that needs to be done.

“Also when I say done I mean I’m wrapped on vocals but we still have post production, mixing, sample clearances and whole bunch of other shit,” he continued in a later tweet.

Who’s ready for a new album from Danny Brown?
