Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes vows to shut critics as Tom Brady provides offseason guidance
Having come up short against the Philadelphia Eagles in February,
Patrick Mahomes
has been working quietly behind the scenes for redemption as the sports world wonders if the Kansas City Chiefs' dominance is coming to an end.
That talk, he concedes, hasn't escaped him—but he's poised to answer back the only way he knows how: by letting his game do the talking.
But he's not doing it alone—he's being assisted by seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.

The Kansas City Chiefs will begin the 2025

season against the Los Angeles Chargers and then enter a high-pressure rematch against the Philadelphia Eagles, who are quarterbacked by Jalen Hurts.
The first part of the season is filled with challenging games—something Patrick Mahomes is aware of but not afraid of.
Speaking with Kay Adams ahead of training camp, Mahomes made it clear that he's using the offseason doubts as fuel. 'I've had to sit back and just listen to people talk and talk. Let's just play football and handle it all out there,' he said.

That competitive mindset is being shaped in part by Tom Brady, who, despite his new roles with the Las Vegas Raiders and a soccer franchise, has carved out time to mentor Mahomes this offseason.
"I've talked to Tom a good amount this offseason, and it's cool that he wants to give me advice,' Mahomes said, suggesting that Brady's input has been pivotal in helping him mentally reset.
In the meantime, tight end
Travis Kelce
is all about football, even with a whirlwind of Hollywood rumors. As he gears up for potentially his last NFL season, Kelce has also made an appearance in Happy Gilmore 2, coming out on Netflix later this month. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, a long-time fan of the original, intends to rent a theater out for the team as a team-building experience.

Who is Dean Withers? Streamer accused of doxing another streamer and calling CPS in viral controversy

The streamer has landed in hot water after being accused of doxing and allegedly making a CPS (Child Protective Services) call on another creator. Social media timelines are messy, fans are divided, and clips are flying around everywhere. So, what really happened? Who is Dean Withers? If you're deep into Twitch or YouTube drama, you've probably come across Dean Withers.

But recently, things spiraled way beyond debates and content—it got personal . It Started With an Argument Things kicked off when Dean got into an online beef with another creator.

Although he never showed full details, people were quick to call it intentional. Then Came the CPS Call Allegations This is where it gets serious. Multiple creators online claimed that Dean may have been involved in filing a CPS report on the other creator he was feuding with. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like AI is helping small businesses increase productivity. Insider Learn More Undo No official documents have surfaced yet, but leaked DMs and voice clips suggest that someone close to Dean—or possibly Dean himself—made the call. Naturally, the internet lost it. Doxing is one thing. But dragging Child Protective Services into a content spat? That's a whole new level of low. Dean Responds... and Makes It Worse?

'Have fun': Pirate Software fires back after Billy Mitchell says 'Pirate Software will be sued'
(Image via @Awk20000 & @BillyPacMan/X) When Billy Mitchell posted a cryptic 'Pirate Software will be sued' tweet, the internet lit up. Known for arcade world records and equally infamous lawsuits, Mitchell stirred things again—this time aiming directly at indie dev and Twitch streamer Pirate Software. But Pirate didn't flinch. In fact, his reaction was live, raw, and dismissive. Billy Mitchell's Threat: Vague and Unexpected On July 5, Billy Mitchell took to X (formerly Twitter) with a short, explosive statement: 'Pirate Software will be sued.' No background. No details. Just a single sentence laced with legal intent. For those familiar with Mitchell's litigious past, the tweet felt in-character. But for most, it was a curveball with no obvious context. — BillyPacMan (@BillyPacMan) Pirate Software Learns Live, Reacts Instantly Pirate Software, run by streamer Thor, was mid-stream playing Dune: Awakening when the post was brought to his attention by a viewer. At first, Thor seemed confused—thinking the chatter was about Mitchell's hot sauces. But once he actually saw the tweet, his response was instant and unfiltered. Laughing off the post, Thor casually remarked, 'Oh, he's just insane… I'll just send it over to my legal team. Whatever, man. Have fun.' There was no panic, no serious concern—just a creator who's clearly dealt with this kind of chaos before. Ongoing Tension from the Stop Killing Games Campaign? This drama didn't emerge from a vacuum. Pirate Software recently voiced strong opinions about the Stop Killing Games (SKG) movement, which criticizes game companies for shutting down digital access to games consumers have purchased. Mitchell's History of Legal Grudges Billy Mitchell is no stranger to legal controversy. From courtroom battles over his high-score legitimacy to feuds with content creators like Karl Jobst, he's built a reputation for fighting back—often with lawyers involved. Whether this is more of the same or something new altogether remains to be seen. No Lawsuit Filed (Yet) As of now, there's no actual lawsuit or official legal filing against Pirate Software. It's all just a vague threat hanging in the digital air. But Pirate's community, already loyal, has rallied with memes, mockery, and defense of Thor's blunt reaction.

NHL star Sam Bennett and wife Zoe Zeleny celebrate their wedding with a Panthers-themed first dance
NHL star Sam Bennett and wife Zoe Zeleny celebrate their wedding with a Panthers-themed first dance (Image Via IG/@sbennett_93) Florida Panthers forward Sam Bennett found a few different ways to mix his work with play. The couple truly made an entrance at the wedding of Sam Bennett and his long-time partner, Zoe Zeleny: They danced to the Panthers' goal song! Their first dance grew increasingly romantic as it paid homage to the high-energy atmosphere at Florida home games, handkerchief waving included, to a reception filled with cheers from guests and fans alike. Sam Bennett and Zoe Zeleny combine love, hockey, and charity into a shared journey More than just a viral moment from the wedding, the snippet was really a window into the personality of the couple. Their shared goodwill extends far beyond the rink and into community work through an animal adoption initiative in which they engage, called Benny's Buddies. Zoe Zeleny has been a strong contributor to the cause since the founding of the organization, with her time spent volunteering at the Humane Society of Broward County. The other half of the equation is the couple's mutual love for animals and desire to give back; this trio launched the organization that pays adoption fees every time Sam Bennett scores a goal. The wedding came just after he had completed Bennett's landmark eight-year, $64 million contract extension with the Florida Panthers. This sharp rise in income, combined with a long-term commitment to the franchise, meant that the couple was able to combine the celebrations for both personal and professional milestones. During his post-signing media call, Bennett wore a Benny's Buddies cap, leaving no doubt about his commitment to the cause. This is one of the most successful seasons in Bennett's career. He recorded personal bests of 51 points in the regular season while adding 15 goals in the playoffs, 13 of which were on the road, setting a new NHL record. Clutch performances rewarded him with the Conn Smythe Trophy, and the Panthers won their second Stanley Cup in as many years, thus etching his name into the league's prominent ranks. Also Read: NHL trade rumors: Erik Karlsson linked to Detroit Red Wings amid talks with Pittsburgh Penguins From skating horizons with Sam Bennett to protecting wildlife with his partner Zoe Zeleny, things fundamentally change about what constitutes a sports couple. More than just dances crossed paths by wedding daylight, the actual event was a sincere expression of what they are passionate about-united side by side in their efforts to make an impact.
