Livvy Dunne trolls MLB mascot with brutal takedown after he shot his shot with gymnastics icon
An ambitious baseball mascot failed to charm Livvy Dunne after shooting his shot with the gymnastics icon this week. During the second game of Detroit's double header with Pittsburgh on Thursday, Paws - who has been the Tigers ' mascot since 1995 - held up a sign which read 'Sup Livvy Dunne' while her Pirates-star boyfriend Paul Skenes was on the mound. But his bold attempt to win her over was quickly shut down. In a viral response, Dunne quoted a photo of Paws' sign on X and wrote: 'Sorry… not my type of tiger,' while tagging Detroit. The ex-gymnast was likely referencing the Tigers of LSU - the school she and Skenes attended. Dunne met the baseball sensation at LSU, with the pair first going public with their relationship in the summer of 2023. Tigers mascot Paws held up a sign aimed at Dunne as her boyfriend Paul Skenes was pitching Skenes, who finished the second game against the Tigers on Thursday with two earned runs and nine strikeouts in six innings pitched, is currently in his second year with the Pirates after a historic rookie season. After being drafted first overall in 2023, the pitcher quickly established himself as one of the best in the sport and was eventually named National League Rookie of the Year. Dunne recently shared a glimpse of her 'east coast summer' with Skenes on Monday as the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover star showed how she's been enjoying the warm weather thus far. The TikTok star, who announced her retirement from gymnastics in April, has had a busy couple of months as she attended a SI Swimsuit party last month and walked on the runway for the brand more recently. And the Westwood, New Jersey native clearly enjoyed spending some time close to home as she gleefully recapped her life of late on Instagram. In the first picture of the carousel post, Dunne sat on the grass in a bathing suit eating a cherry while her dog, Roux, sat nearby. She also shared a picture of her with influencer Alix Earle, while she's also spent much of her time cheering on Skenes for the Pirates. The LSU graduate shared a picture of herself in a Pirates hat, a view of Pittsburgh's PNC Park and a snap of Skenes playing golf as he enjoyed some time away from the baseball diamond.

AP WAS THERE: 'Jaws' and the parental debates it set off
It didn't take long for 'Jaws' to make an impression. The movie that launched the summer blockbuster season and changed how people view sharks and the ocean 50 years ago also created a dilemma for parents: Was it a movie their children could watch? To help answer that, The Associated Press went to the film's star, Roy Scheider. Legendary AP Special Correspondent Linda Deutsch interviewed Scheider and others for a story that ran on July 28, 1975, roughly a month after 'Jaws' arrived in theaters. The story is included below as it ran. ___ At a sunny hotel swimming pool, a small freckle faced boy rushes up to Roy Scheider and exclaims with delight: 'I think you played really good in 'Jaws.'' 'You see,' says Scheider as the boy runs off to swim. 'Some children seem able to handle it.' Scheider, star of the smash hit film which is breaking box-office records, was reacting to a stormy issue now almost as hot as the movie itself — should children see 'Jaws'? The debate stems from the rating given to the movie — PG, meaning parental guidance suggested. Several critics and members of the movie industry have called the rating too lenient. Some use it as an example of flaws in the frequently criticized rating system. In practice, PG places no restrictions on who may see a film. Any child with the price of a movie ticket can view 'Jaws,' which climaxes with a man vomiting blood as a giant shark chews him up. Los Angeles Times critic Charles Champlin noted that the PG 'does not sufficiently warn parents that the giant shark includes children among its victims and that children are known to be particularly impressed by what happens to children on the screen.' Movie makers whose films recently were give the more restrictive 'R' rating — requiring an adult to accompany any child under 17 — have protested loudly. Some have even appealed to the rating board of the Motion Picture Association of America for a rating change. 'With some of our innocuous action pictures we've been hit with Rs,' says Paul Heller, producer of 'Enter the Dragon.' 'But here we get a picture where there's all sorts of gore and blood, where arms and legs are seen floating in the water, where a girl is seen covered by crabs on the beach, and other horrifying scenes, and it gets a PG.' Producers of the film 'Rollerball' unsuccessfully appealed their R rating after 'Jaws' was released, claiming their film's violence was far less objectionable. Universal Studios, which released 'Jaws,' has taken the unusual steps of warning in its advertisements that the film 'may be too intense for younger children.' Youngsters interviewed at a Los Angeles area beach after the movie's release expressed fears of swimming in the ocean. One 12-year-old girl confessed 'I think about it so much. I dreamed about it. It really scared me.' But Universal has no complaints about the PG rating, and, according to Rating Administration, no one may appeal a film's rating other than its producer and distributor. Scheider, who portrays the sheriff of the beach resort menaced by the killer shark, recalls that 'Jaws' was made with the intention of obtaining a PG rating. 'The picture was judiciously shot to avoid unnecessary amounts of gore,' he says, recalling that some bloody scenes were added after final footage was reviewed by the filmmakers. 'When the film was brought back to the post, the editor and director found that it was necessary to show, after an hour and a half, what the shark does. the audience demands it.' The scene of the girl covered with crabs was added later, he notes and the finale in which Robert Shaw is chewed up was embellished. 'I personally think that scene could have been modulated a bit,' says Scheider. But Jack Valenti, president of the MPAA and father of the seven-year-old rating system, defends the 'Jaws' rating. 'In the view of the rating board, 'Jaws' involved nature's violence, rather than man's violence against man,' Valenti has said. 'This is the same kind of violence as in 'Hansel and Gretel.' Children might imitate other kinds of violence, but not the kind seen in 'Jaws.'' Valenti declared that, 'If this were a man or woman committing violence as seen in 'Jaws,' it would definitely go in the R category. But it's a shark, and I don't think people will go around pretending they're a shark.' The rating controversy hasn't hurt business. Universal reports that 'Jaws' grossed an incredible $60 million in its first month and seems destined to grow richer than 'The Godfather,' the current record holder. Scheider says his own 12-year-old daughter has seen 'Jaws' twice — but only after he and his wife explained 'which things she was going to see were real and which ones were not real.' 'She was scared in many parts, but she knew it was a movie,' he says, suggesting that parents who let children see the movie explain first that 'This is going to scare you. It's going to be like a roller coaster ride.' 'Some kids understand his and some don't,' he concedes. '... I would be very careful about children under 10. If they're susceptible to nightmares, get scared easily and are impressionable, I'd say no, don't see it. If the child can handle it, fine, see it.' Scheider holds the cynical view that the rating system exists because 'most parents don't give a damn what their kids see.' But he is convinced that a child who sees 'Jaws' without guidance won't be permanently traumatized by it. 'It'll go away,' he says. 'You can live through it. Traumatic shocks in entertainment disappear. Traumatic shocks through the lack of love and ill treatment by parents and peers persist through all of life.'

Oregon lands top prep safety, nephew of Kobe Bryant
June 20 - Oregon landed a commitment from five-star safety Jett Washington, a nephew of the late NBA great Kobe Bryant. Washington ranks as the No. 2 safety and No. 18 overall player in the 2026 recruiting class by 247 Sports.

Washington chose coach Dan Lanning and the Ducks after also paying visits to Southern California and Alabama. "I loved the way they treated me out there," Washington told ESPN. "My relationship with them has been going the right way ever since I started talking to them." Like his famous uncle, Washington also plays basketball and helped Bishop Gorman win the Nevada Class 5A state title this season. --Field Level Media
