  • Courting Season at Wimbledon, Burrow’s Batmobile Reversal, and Live Tasting Świątek’s Strawberry Pasta
    Jul 9 2025
    Wimbledon’s serving more than just tennis. Celebs donned their Wimbledon whites while several top-seeded players bid us a “pip-pip cheerio” in early exits. Only three Americans remain, including Ben Shelton, who’s racking up wins and admirers – just ask Trinity Rodman. In other tennis news, Iga Swiatek shared her favorite post-game meal of strawberry and sour cream pasta. Naturally, Blake and Caroline had to try it live. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: The literal bloody hell moment one celeb had in her Wimbledon whites Which WNBA legend is set to get the first-of-its-kind statue made of her The real reason why Joe Burrow paused his $3 million Batmobile order Why renting out a French chatêau couldn’t get Stefon Diggs out of the dog house How Chicago Cubs fans made it clear they’re not members of Alex Cooper’s “Daddy Gang” Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?

  • LeBron’s Farewell Tour, Brady-Sweeney Sweetness, and the WNBA Expands
    Jul 1 2025
    This week in Pretty Boys of the NFL, Tom Brady apparently hit it off with Sydney Sweeney at the Bezos-Sànchez wedding across the pond in Venice. Blake begs the very important question — can Tom Brady even flirt? Back home, Tight End University kicked off, where players came for the football and stayed for an impromptu Taylor Swift concert. Thanks, Travis. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: A recap of our time in the Stubhub suite for a recent Liberty game Kelsey Plum sharing the real reason many WNBA stars are in a shooting slump Ben Shelton confirming what Caroline knew to be true – butter yellow is in The prettiest boy in the NFL who refused to play because it was “too cold” How we want to see sporty enemies squash the beef, à la Coco and Aryna Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimmPS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?

  • Paige and Azzi Hard Launch, OKC’s Gen Z Kings, and Aaron Rodgers’ (Fake) Marriage
    Jun 24 2025
    It was a winning week for Gen-Z ballers. Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd finally hard-launched their relationship on Instagram after months of speculation. Then, the Oklahoma City Thunder won the NBA Championship with an average roster age of 24.7. Subtract a couple of pandemic years (girl math), and they’re basically 22. Their post-win celebration? Let's just say it reflected their age. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: The only woman who could get Stephen A. Smith to… stop talking How Sophie Cunningham stood on business — and what it reveals about WNBA reffing Tom Brady proving yet again that he’s the GOAT at Fanatics Fest How Kylie Kelce plans to help Dawn Staley’s post-coaching dreams come true Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shows why he’s league *and* dad MVP after Game 7 Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?
