Whether you’re a die-hard fan who has the standings of multiple leagues memorized, or someone who really does think that Taylor Swift put Travis Kelce on the map, join us Madeline Hill and Charlotte Wilder, as we watch sports with one eye on the game and one eye on the personal life section of athletes’ Wikipedia pages. sportsgossipshow.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

Venezuela beat the USA to win the World Baseball Classic, 3-2. March Madness is starting! The WNBA is finally paying the players, with a new salary cap starting at $7 million, up from $1.5 million, and with no changes to schedule. Hallelujah!  Quick Tom Brady update, because of course. Then, a huge moment for the show: Did we influence the flowers at NFL player CJ Uzomah’s wedding to his wife, Yasmin? An investigation! Remember that messy situation with the African Cup of Nations championship involving Senegal and Morocco? Morocco successfully appealed Senegal’s win, so the story keeps going. In NWSL news, Savy King returned to Angel City ten months after surviving a life-threatening on-field cardiac event. Catarina Macario joined the San Diego Wave FC on maybe the biggest contract in women's soccer history. And Boston Legacy FC made its NWSL debut!  It may go all the way to the top when it comes to Trump’s policy on Cuba and Inter Miami owner Jorge Mas. And, finally, tennis scheduling drama involving Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Świątek.  Hosted on Acast.
