'Bill has to produce,' he said while on the red carpet at the YouTube Brandcast upfront on May 14. 'And I'm going to be tuning in, and I want to see him win some games. Because if he wins some games, he'll shut everyone up. And that would be fun to see, man.'

"You know, and in the back of your head … you're just thinking to yourself, 'When you were on the Patriots, the whole goal was to eliminate all the distractions that can possibly happen while you're on the team,' " Gronkowski said during an interview with 98.5 The Sports Hub.
He continued, "And don't bring those distractions to the team and in the locker room, and we're just looking down at the program in North Carolina, and it feels like there are just distractions 24/7 down there. There's no football talk as well."
Belichick has been fielding numerous questions about his personal life recently, despite his insistence that his relationship with Hudson has nothing to do with his professional life.
On Tuesday, May 13, the coach told ESPN that his relationship with Hudson is 'off to the side' and that 'she doesn't have anything to do with UNC football.'
On the same day, UNC athletic director Bubba Cunningham reconfirmed that Hudson has not been banned from the school's athletics department or its facilities, despite a report claiming the contrary.
"Bill's been great to work with," Cunningham told ESPN in a separate interview. "He talked about practicing like a pro and he runs a professional organization that is teaching students how to be professional in all aspects of their life. He is a very determined, professional individual, and that's the way he carries himself and the way he conducts the program."

Juventus, Manchester United, and Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres appears to be fed up with transfer speculation, saying: 'I will speak when the time is right.' Sporting CP striker Gyokeres, one of the most sought-after strikers in the 2025 summer transfer window, has released a brief statement about his future, appearing annoyed by the recent transfer speculation. Advertisement 'There is [are] a lot of talks at the moment, most of it is false. I will speak when the time is right,' Gyokeres wrote in an Instagram story on Thursday. Juventus, Manchester United and Arsenal have already approached the Sweden striker, as Football Italia reported this week. Multiple sources believe Gyokeres will be allowed to leave Sporting for circa €70m this summer, despite a €100m clause included in his contract with the club. However, Sporting CP President Frederico Varandas told the BBC earlier this week that this would not be the case. 'I can guarantee that Viktor Gyokeres will not leave for € 60m plus €10m because I never promised that,' Varandas said. Advertisement 'To this day, Sporting have not had an offer for Gyokeres – neither today nor last season.'

Man Reveals One Gen Z Shopping Habit Millennials Just Can't Cope With
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. In a viral TikTok post that has clocked more than 2.5 million views, Davide De Pierro, a 37-year-old from New Jersey, struck a generational nerve with a simple observation: younger people are far too comfortable making major purchases on their smartphones. "I just had a friend buy his plane ticket on his phone," De Pierro, who is known as @ddp8792 on TikTok, told viewers in the post from May 22. "That's a laptop purchase. "Someone back me up," he added. De Pierro told Newsweek about the viral moment and the generational divide it stems from, which many viewers have been poking fun at in the comments. "I did not create the term 'laptop purchase,' but I've seen it used … I've also seen other posts online about this," he said. The distinction between phone and laptop usage may seem like a minor point, but it is one that reveals how differently millennials and Gen Zers navigate the digital world. Millennials—defined as those born between 1981 and 1996—tend to reserve smartphones for quick tasks: scrolling through Instagram, messaging, or maybe buying a coffee. Booking an international flight? As the TikTok video jokingly summed up: that's a "laptop thing." For most Gen Zers, born between 1997 and 2012, there is no such boundary. They are just as likely to research, book, and pay for a vacation on a smartphone as they are to order lunch. This shift is part of a broader trend that has been described as the divide between the "big internet" and the "little internet." Older millennials are typically more comfortable on traditional web platforms—laptops, long-form blogs, and detailed searches—while Gen Z thrives on the streamlined, mobile-first experience of apps such as TikTok. Though De Pierro's post may not be the first that pokes fun at this generational culture clash, the traction it gained online has continued to elevate the conversation. The candid TikTok video prompted waves of discussion and humorous commentary among users who saw it as emblematic of the wider divide between millennials and Gen Z when it comes to digital behavior. "I agree," one viewer said. "The laptop purchase is a millennial thing." "As a millennial, I agree 100 percent," another added. "The anxiety I would get using phone. "This is Gen Z activities," they said. From left: Davide De Pierro speaks to his TikTok audience about "laptop purchases"; and a stock image of a traveler buying airline tickets on an Apple laptop.

One comment shared a different opinion: "I do everything from my phone. I bought a house on my phone." "I support this 100 percent big purchase=big screens, multiple tabs and multiple hours/days of research," another added. "That's for the big internet," a viewer posted. "Also a serious email can't be written from a phone," another commented. De Pierro, who works as a lawyer and previously lived in Italy for eight years, said that the idea of TikTok stardom was far from his mind until recently. "I am what my ex-girlfriend calls 'chronically offline,' so it is unlike me to have a TikTok, but she encouraged me to try one," he said. "I started really posting at the end of March 2025. "I owe this to her, for encouraging me and showing me I can do this," he added. Despite the pair breaking up afterwards, De Pierro's TikTok presence has grown rapidly over the past few months to more than 600,000 followers. He is now writing a book and hopes his unexpected platform will help him promote it once it is ready. "Until then, I'll keep trying to make relatable life scenarios funny for people," De Pierro said.
