Deatrich Wise Jr. is just one of three veterans that have something to prove at the Patriots’ spring practices.
An interesting read about the “lack of officials” in Vermont for high school girls lacrosse. Hopefully, more men and women will be interested in learning the game, while also growing it as a referee.
How are the ‘homegrown‘ Boston Bruins doing this postseason? Find out … NOW from Boston.com.

Happy Wednesday, everyone!

As noted yesterday, the Daily Noontime has returned for good, so let’s kick-start your day with some news and notes from the New England (and possibly national) sports world.

Have a great day, everyone!

In the News | Wednesday, May 22nd, 2019

Rowdy Tellez recorded two home runs and five RBI to lead the Toronto Blue Jays to an impressive 10-3 win over the Boston Red Sox.
The Boston Bruins are another day closer to the 2019 Stanley Cup Finals – they will face the St. Louis Blues – and will attempt to simulate a game day experience, including an intrasquad game at the TD Garden tomorrow. Will it work? Who knows, but coach Bruce Cassidy certainly is eager to give this idea a whirl!
Tom Brady and the McCourty twins shared their thoughts on Twitter yesterday regarding Julian Edelman‘s contract extension.
A great read from Pats Pulpit Julian Edelman’s contract extension – how it adds another wrinkle to his story with the New England Patriots.
The Buffalo Bills will allow one of their players to wear No. 32, which happened to be O.J. Simpson’s number when he competed for the team years ago.

Wednesday’s Sports Viewing Schedule: Here is what we will be watching today!

Baseball: Boston Red Sox at Toronto Blue Jays, 7:07 p.m.

In Case You Missed It: We wrote about the Edelman contract extension, as well as the possibility of keeping one of our all-time favorite Patriots in uniform for the next few years!

We’ll be back for more news and notes from the New England (and national) sports world tomorrow – have a great day, everyone!

Daily Noontime: Tuesday, May 21st, 2019

By NoontimeSports.com | @NoontimeSports

Ah, the Daily Noontime has returned – we hope you’re as excited as we are about its return to NoontimeSports.com.

As of today, you can expect a Daily Noontime to appear every Monday through Friday going forward, so get excited.

The Daily Noontime has been a staple of our site, and we are super-excited to relaunch it.

So, enjoy some news and links from the world wide web and have a tremendous transformation Tuesday – notice the social media reference?

In The News | Tuesday, May 21st, 2019

Michael Chavis has been our greatest pick-up in fantasy baseball, but he has also been clutch for the Boston Red Sox this spring, too. On Monday, he belted his ninth home run of the season – this guy is a machine!
Speaking of the Red Sox, they, along with the New York Yankees will be headed across the pond next month to compete in London for two days.
Former Red Sox relief pitcher Koji Uehara has announced he is retiring from baseball.
The Boston Bruins are enjoying a mini-vacation before the Stanley Cup Finals begins next Monday, May 27th. Boston will face the winner of the Western Conference Finals, which resumes tonight with the St. Louis Blues leading the series, 3-2. But should Bruins fans root for the Blues or San Jose Sharks? Here are some thoughts on competing against the Sharks.
According to a few sources, the New England Patriots had trade talks with the Minnesota Vikings about acquiring tight end, Kyle Rudolph. Rudolph would certainly fill the void left by Rob Gronkowski, who retired a few weeks after the Patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams in the Super Bowl.

Tuesday’s Sports Viewing Schedule: Here is what we will be watching today!

Baseball: Boston Red Sox at Toronto Blue Jays, 7:07 p.m. | NESN
Basketball: Milwaukee Bucks at Toronto Raptors, 8:30 p.m. | TNT

We’ll be back tomorrow with more news and notes from the mecca of sports – that would be Boston, as well as New England!

Happy Wednesday, everyone – the weekend is almost here, so stay focused!

From looking outside our window this morning, it looks like a sloppy and slushy mess of snow, rain, and puddles – yuck!

Anywho, let’s make today a great day by producing an awesome (and amazing) Daily Noontime!

In The News:

In honor of the 150th season of college football, The Athletic recently produced a piece about the ‘big three’ during the 1880s. And they were the following teams: Yale University, Princeton University, Harvard University, and everyone else.
Without David Pastrnak last night, the Boston Bruins were able to score six goals and snap the Chicago Blackhawks‘ seven-game winning streak.
For the Boston Celtics, beating the Philadelphia 76ers last night was what we would consider a good win!
DJ Bussey recorded 14 points and three rebounds last night as the Husson University men’s basketball team defeated Maine Maritime Academy in its regular-season finale. With the win, the Eagles soar into their conference tournament with a 15-10 record.
Melinda Ogden netted a team-high 16 points, while Lauren Plissey added a double-double of 13 rebounds and 11 points as Maine Maritime defeated Husson, 58-48, to cap its regular-season with some momentum heading into their conference tournament. With the win, the Mariners have now won six games, dating back to a 65-43 win over Northern Vermont-Lyndon earlier this month.

In Case You Missed It (ICYMI):
