He’s baaaaaack … says an NBC affiliate TV sports anchor. Peter Busch of WBBH in Ft. Meyers, FL, says that he has “confirmed” that Michael Phelps will come out of retirement to try and compete in the 2016 Rio Olympics. Phelps has denied this, kind of.

If a Maloof brother peeks out of his closet and sees his shadow, you know it’s six more months of the Kings remaining in Sacramento. Yes, one of the current owners of the Kings actually got chased into a hotel lobby closet by the press, which was only one of the highlights of today’s NBA Board of Governors meeting.

Before Seth Meyers agreed to take over for Jimmy Fallon at NBC, he was offered a late-night talk show hosting job at ESPN. Wait, what? Apparently ESPN wants a talk show to follow its 11 p.m. SportsCenter, and is in search of a host. We speculate on possible candidates, because that’s what we do.

In which ESPN president John Skipper tells Sports Illustrated that he wishes he had been “more careful” with Chris Broussard, regarding the latter’s on-air comments about Jason Collins.

Little Leaguer hit in chest by thrown ball stops breathing. As others call 911 and begin to panic, mom from opposing team coolly administers CPR, saving child’s life. This all happens on day before Mother’s Day. Getting very dusty in this post, must wipe eyes …

Adult Swim — the network that gave you Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Robot Chicken, is planning a cartoon starring Mike Tyson. His sidekick will be a talking pigeon. I included the cartoon ear, because that needs to happen.

With his prospects of landing a job on the playing field fading by the day, speculation is that Tim Tebow may opt for a broadcasting career. This could set up a monumental bidding war between Fox Sports and ESPN, which is something we’d love to see. But if this happens, Tebow may be wise to turn them both down.

The tradition is slightly different than the one in Punxsutawney, PA. In Bridgeton, NJ, if the groundhog emerges from its den and sees your shadow, then a reign of groundhog terror will proceed for 30 minutes.
