ESPN Turns On Its Biggest Star

Publication by EssentiallySports | August 17, 2026 | Edition #521 |
Hey Folks,
Pat McAfee is no stranger to controversy, but his newest side project has sparked a cultural rift that even his biggest backers aren't sure how to handle. As public reaction splits down the middle, ESPN appears to be quietly putting distance from its biggest star.
Has the industry's ultimate crowd-pleaser pushed things too far?
Your K-Cup Has Been Sitting in a Warehouse for Months
That grocery store pod? It was roasted long before it hit the shelf. Coffee starts losing flavor within weeks of roasting — which is why your morning cup tastes flat, no matter how nice your machine is.
Angelino's does it differently. A third-generation roaster in Los Angeles, they roast, grind, and seal every pod in-house for peak freshness, then ship it to your door within days of roasting. The difference is the first thing you'll notice: real aroma, real flavor, no bitterness.
Mix and match from 50+ specialty coffees, teas, and flavored blends — all Keurig®-compatible — and save more with every box you add, up to 34% off at 12+. Order once whenever you're running low, or subscribe for an extra 5% if that's easier. Entirely up to you.
New customers get 15% off their first order — applied automatically, no code needed.
How do you grade the Cowboys' decision to sign Von Miller? |
Von Miller isn't one for formal fanfare. When his teammates at the Denver Broncos found out he was nominated for the prestigious Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award, they knew a standard, lavish celebration wouldn't suit him.

Manning set up a clever ruse, calling Miller into the facility under the pretense of a routine media interview to reflect on hitting his 100th career sack. Expecting a straightforward Q&A, Miller strolled into the room completely off-guard, and with a mouth full of lunch.
As Miller stood there processing the surprise mid-bite, Manning revealed the second act. A nearby supply closet door swung open, and out stepped Miller’s mother, followed by his father, his brother, and his close friend and "honorary brother," Tony Jerod-Eddie.
