Jimmy Haslam, the owner of the Browns and founder of Pilot Flying J, maintains that he had nothing to do with the customer rebate scandal that has rocked the travel center company. More executives, however, have recently agreed to cooperate with a federal investigation, meaning that it will soon make its way to the top of the organization.
Mike Florio says the fraud at the company was so widespread that Haslam was either totally oblivious or willfully blind.

David Beckham made a career of kicking soccer balls accurately, so who's to say he can't do the same with a ball that's a different shape?
Reports say that an NFL team has reached out to the recently-retired Beckham regarding a tryout, and Michelle Beadle thinks it would be a very interesting experiment. He has enormous commercial appeal and -- come on -- who wouldn't want to see David Beckham get tackled?

The series opener of the Stanley Cup Final was a memorable one. It went three overtimes and saw the Blackhawks battle back from a 3-1 deficit in Chicago, so you can imagine how intense it must have been inside the United Center. Here's an inside perspective, from the fans that were actually in attendance, of what it was like to be in the building and the emotions that were running through the crowd during the Blackhawks' epic win.
The group that showed up at Merion Golf Club this weekend was comprised of the greatest players in the world, but their play on the difficult layout could have fooled you. In classic U.S. Open fashion, the course presented brutal tee shots, speedy putts and impossible lies. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, the two highest-ranked players in the world, shot a combined 27-over for the week and for the second straight year, the winner of our national championship failed to break par. By the end of the weekend, the real champion proved to be the course. Here's a look at the best of (or maybe worst of) Merion.
