Podcast host apologizes to Bill Belichick, Jordon Hudson: ‘My bad, coach'
Jordon Hudson's role in Bill Belichick's life has been frequently talked about ever since she shut down a question from CBS Mornings about how the couple met.
More fuel was added to that fire when 'The Pivot' co-host Channing Crowder revealed the 24-year-old Hudson 'choreographed the open' of Belichick's interview with the podcast and 'had her paws' on the situation.

Crowder used part of Tuesday's episode to issue an apology to Belichick and Hudson, noting he got 'caught up in the narrative.'
'I just want to tell Bill, Jordon, I apologize for any negativity it brought to you,' Crowder said. 'Coach, we talked on the phone, I told you I respect you as much as I do anybody in this world. And what happened and the articles that came out was unrealistic and that's the opposite of what I wanted to do for you and what I wanted to do for your relationship, coach. So that's my bad and I wanted to put it out there as a man: My bad, coach.'
Ryan Clark added that Hudson didn't have any say in the open of the show that included Belichick.
'That's not the truth. Bill reached out to me personally and we decided that we were going to ask about the book,' Clark said. 'But I asked, 'Hey coach, can we get into a little bit more?''

Clark added he spoke to the couple for 90 minutes before the podcast interview and that Hudson even answered questions on camera — though that part didn't make the final cut of the episode.
In fact, the co-host revealed Hudson left during the interview.
'I think the narrative that people want to build around her and her control wasn't displayed during our interview,' Clark said.

We hit 78 in our Raiders countdown to kickoff. Who wore it best and who's wearing it now
We've reached 78 days until the Raiders season opener at Foxboro against the Patriots, With our countdown at 78 days we take a look at who currently dons the number in Silver & Black and who has brought it the most distinction. No. 78 Who's wearing it now: OT Dalton Wagner Wagner is on his third go round with the Raiders. The 6-8, 320-pounder was originally an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas in 2023. At the end of his first camp, he was placed on injured reserve and remained with the team to try again in 2024. He didn't make the team out of camp and was spent all of last season on the team's practice squad. He was then re-signed to a reserve/future contract last January. Who wore it best: OT Art Shell The greatest offensive lineman to ever don Silver & Black. And he did so for his entire 15-year Hall of Fame career. He made eight Pro Bowls and was named an All Pro twice in that time, while anchoring the left side of the Raiders dominant offensive line. And the Raiders hoisted two Lombardi trophies as well. Shell would later become the Raiders head coach and the first ever African American head coach in NFL history in 1989. Over his initial six seasons as head coach, he only once had a losing record, finishing with an overall winning record. We can just ignore his doomed single-season stint in 2006.

College coach knew Patriots were 'perfect' match for promising rookie UDFA
UC Davis coach Tim Plough knew immediately that the New England Patriots would be the perfect fit for undrafted rookie running back Lan Larison. The former UC Davis standout fit the mold of the do-everything running backs that have typically succeeded under Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. Larison racked up 1,465 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns, while also hauling in 62 receptions for 847 yards and six touchdowns in his senior season. Advertisement The playmaking abilities as both a rusher and receiver are reminiscent of some running backs in the Patriots' past. It's why Plough thought that New England would be a good fit for Larison. 'When he asked me what I thought, I said, 'Lan, that is the perfect place for you to go,'' Plough told 'First thing I thought was this couldn't be a better fit.' Larison's skill set is comparable to previous Patriots standouts, like Rex Burkhead and Danny Woodhead. It's a crowded running back room with players like Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson and Antonio Gibson also vying for snaps. But Larison is talented enough to stick around with a good training camp. He could be next in line of the many underrated players to make a name for themselves in McDaniels' offense.

Seeing Brad Marchand hoist the Cup and Rafael Devers traded are reminders of how Boston's sports fortunes have changed
Feels inevitable, doesn't it? The San Francisco Giants will win the World Series, and Devers will be their first baseman. It's the new curse in town. From the infamous and original Curse of the Bambino, the original dark cloud, to the Li'l Ball O' Hate, the most recent defector-turned-champion, Babe Ruth and Brad Marchand are reminders that sometimes, beloved figures end up writing a storybook ending somewhere else. From Ray Bourque to Tom Brady, Mookie Betts to Jon Lester, Adam Vinatieri to Ben Coates, Boston has more than done its part for other cities across the map, sending championship players to help them out. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up The Giants aren't the baseball favorites nor the defending champions the Panthers were, but they could emerge from the bruising NL West as a legitimate contender, especially with Devers's bat now in the lineup. Advertisement Were that to happen, Devers would add a second title to his résumé, the same as Marchand. Both won early in their Boston careers — Related : Advertisement In Marchand's case, that came true, playing alongside captains Zdeno Chara and Patrice Bergeron, in front of goaltenders Tim Thomas and Tuukka Rask, scoring goals with David Pastrnak and David Krejci, making it all the way back to the Stanley Cup Final in When the need for a franchise rebuild finally became too obvious to ignore, the Bruins accepted the reality that their current captain, the man who did his best to hold it all together, was more a part of their past than their future. And so They did right by Marchand much as they once did by Bourque, whose loyalty to Boston across 21 Bruins seasons was so revered and valued that no one begrudged his trade to Colorado, where he won his only championship in 2001. So starved for success was Boston back then that Bourque's City Hall Plaza celebration with the Cup drew more than 20,000 fans, a particularly stunning occasion when looked through the prism of hindsight, and the ensuing six Patriots Super Bowl victories, two NBA Celtics titles, a Bruins Cup, and four Red Sox World Series.

JIM BOURG/REUTERS Yet amid all that curse-breaking celebration for the Sox is the troubling recent trend. Since that last title in 2018, payroll flexibility has taken over where big-market spending muscles used to be. Much like letting the beloved Lester walk only to watch him win another curse-breaking Series with the Cubs, the Sox keep shedding core players. The Meanwhile, since trading him away, the Red Sox have more last-place finishes than playoff appearances. The Patriots are coming off two last-place finishes of their own, languishing in the basement of an AFC East they used to dominate. Such is their post-Brady world, one that tries to restart again this season under the hands of Mike Vrabel and Drake Maye. Brady's résumé in New England will not be surpassed, but that pesky post-Patriots year in Tampa Bay, when he won But for every Betts or Brady, there's a Coates, a 1991 fifth-round draft pick turned Advertisement But times are lean again. Jayson Tatum is gone for the upcoming season after rupturing his Achilles' during a failed attempt to defend the 2024 NBA title, and the Celtics have to reshape their roster and finances. The Red Sox got zero major league help in return for Devers, other than unloading the $254 million balance of his contract. The Patriots are in Year 1 of Vrabel, and the Bruins in Year 1 of Marco Sturm. All part of the sports cycle, a natural balancing of scales that, for two-plus decades, reached the highest of highs around here. Doesn't make it any easier to watch Marchand hoist the Cup, to watch Betts win the Series, or imagine Devers doing the same. Tara Sullivan is a Globe columnist. She can be reached at
