Tiebreakers in Greenville serves as March Madness hotspot
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — March Madness is underway at Tiebreakers in Greenville.
'It's the best time of the year, I mean it's even better than the Super Bowl,' Randy Humes said. 'You got basketball for the next three weeks. You got games on Thursday starting at noon.'
Everyone views the tournaments differently, even turning their homes into the ultimate viewing experience.
'Well, I got two TVs. There's going to be four games on probably at once several times during the day. It's just a matter of navigating and finding the channels,' Humes said.
However, other people around Greenville choose to take the madness in with larger crowds.
With teams like UNC and Duke taking part in March Madness, Tiebreakers tends to get packed this time of year.
'It's very popular, people like to come and eat wings and burgers and Tiebreakers is a great spot,' Moe Ngom said.

CeeDee Lamb set to catch multiple Cowboys WR legends in 2025
CeeDee Lamb set to catch multiple Cowboys WR legends in 2025 CeeDee Lamb is poised to make 2025 a big year. His numbers were down last season after a stellar 2023, but that can be chalked up to a series of unfortunate events: the midseason loss of Dak Prescott, his own shoulder injury that he tried to play through and then lost two games to, and a lack of receiving threats around him that might have spread defenses thinner. Now healthy, with his starting quarterback returning, and in a new-look offense with George Pickens opposite him and Brian Schottenheimer's first-year staff eager to put their stamp on things, Lamb is eyeing a return to statistical form. He's also set to climb the charts in terms of Cowboys franchise history. Lamb is already, after just five seasons, the team's No. 7 all-time receiver in yards. And while Jason Witten and Michael Irvin's places atop the rankings are secure for several more years, the legends occupying the four spots in front of Lamb are all within his reach this season. Here's a look at the Cowboys greats who Lamb could be catching before 2025 wraps up. 6. Bob Hayes: 7,295 yards "The World's Fastest Human" was already an Olympic gold medalist by the time he joined the Cowboys in 1965. Over 10 seasons, the unprecedented speed he brought to the wide receiver position literally changed the way secondaries played the game, necessitating the invention of zone defense. "Bullet Bob" was the Cowboys' all-time touchdowns reception leader for over four decades and is in the team's Ring of Honor. Lamb will overtake Hayes for the No. 6 spot on the franchise's all-time receiving list with 957 more yards. That seems like a near-lock to happen in 2025; Lamb hasn't turned in a season with less than that since his rookie year. (And even then, he logged 935.) 5. Dez Bryant: 7,459 yards Bryant's dynamic career was cut short by injuries after leaving Dallas prior to the 2018 season, but the three-time Pro Bowler did enough over eight years as a Cowboy to land in the league's all-time Top 150 in receiving yards. He has been the franchise's career touchdown receptions leader since 2017. Lamb will need 1,121 yards to pass Bryant for the No. 5 spot on the Cowboys' all-time list. Recent history suggests he has a good chance; he's surpassed that total in each of the last three seasons. 4. Drew Pearson: 7,822 yards An undrafted receiver out of Tulsa, Pearson went on to earn three first-team All-Pro nods, three Pro Bowl berths, and a Super Bowl ring en route to a place in the Ring of Honor and an eventual Hall of Fame enshrinement. Though he recorded just two 1,000-yard campaigns over an 11-year career, Pearson finished with over 7,800 receiving yards. Lamb will catch him with 1,483 yards, and he'll claim the franchise's No. 3 all-time spot with one yard more. 3. Tony Hill: 7,988 yards He's often a forgotten man when talking about the great pass-catchers in Cowboys history, but Hill played on two Super Bowl squads, won a ring as a rookie, led the team in both catches and yards nine years in a row, and earned three trips to the Pro Bowl. Coach Tom Landry once singled him out as Dallas's "home-run hitter" and said, "I've never seen a guy who could adjust to a ball in mid-air like Tony." He's currently third on the team's all-time receiving list, but Lamb will pass him for that slot with 1,650 more yards. That could be a tall order, even for Lamb; he has topped that mark just once, in 2023. How many yards will Lamb post in 2025? Barring a serious turn of events, Lamb looks to climb the ranks of the Cowboys' all-time receiving yards leaders in 2025. But it likely won't happen until later in the season. Could he move into the No. 6 spot before the Week 10 bye? Maybe. Back in 2023, Lamb did have a nine-game run where he tallied over 1,000 yards, but that stretch included three of Lamb's best four games ever, and five of his top 15. That's the kind of effort it would take once again to pass Hayes before the bye. Also playing a factor will be George Pickens. While his addition to the lineup will take some double-teams off Lamb and conceivably lead to more big-game opportunities for him, Pickens is another talented mouth who will need to be fed. How Brian Schottenheimer and Dak Prescott choose to distribute the ball will be huge in determining whether Lamb's numbers go up or down overall when the game plan doesn't have to run through him as the offense's only legitimate weapon.

Steelers among worst in NFL in getting a lead and keeping it
Steelers among worst in NFL in getting a lead and keeping it One of the calling cards of a Pittsburgh Steelers team under head coach Mike Tomlin have been slow starts on offense. Steelers opening drives have been a running joke for years and no matter how much time the offense has to prepare for that first drive, it almost never yields points. This is why the notion of getting the lead first and keeping it for the entire game is so foreign to the Steelers. Meanwhile, the top teams in the NFL understand the importance of getting a lead and keeping it. Just look at these numbers presented by NFL data scientist extraordinaire Warren Sharp on social media. He grouped teams by how many wins each team had in 2024 where they never trailed. Pittsburgh had only two games last season out of their 10 wins were games where they didn't trail at some point. Meanwhile, Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles, won seven games without ever trailing. 7 - GB, BAL, PHI6 - DET, HOU5 - BUF, WAS, TB, NO, MIN, CIN4 - KC, DEN, ARI, LAC, MIA3 - SEA, SF, CAR2 - IND, LAR, PIT, DAL, NE1 - CLE, TEN, JAX, ATL, NYJ0 - NYG, LV, CHI For up-to-date Steelers coverage, news and commentary, be sure to follow us on X @TheSteelersWire and give our Facebook page a like.

Terry McLaurin reportedly frustrated with lack of progress toward long-term contract with Commanders
The tension between wide receiver Terry McLaurin and the Washington Commanders over his contractual frustration continues to heat up as he seeks a new long-term contract with the team. On Thursday, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that the 29-year-old "Has made it clear to the team that he's frustrated with the lack of progress on a long-term deal." Advertisement Schultz previously reported that McLaurin left in the middle of OTAs after initially reporting to them. Whether or not he will be at the Commanders' minicamp from June 10-12 remains unknown. McLaurin is heading into the final year of his current contract after getting selected by Washington in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He signed a three-year rookie extension worth $68,364,000 in 2022. The friction between him and the organization came after catching 82 passes for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns to clinch his second Pro Bowl nod this past season with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. Advertisement After an impressive campaign, McLaurin witnessed his team acquire Deebo Samuel Sr. and his $23.8 million salary in a trade from the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for a 2025 fifth-round pick. Samuel tallied 51 catches for 670 yards and three touchdowns in his sixth and final year with the 49ers. Samuel joins McLaurin and veteran Noah Brown as the presumed starters ahead of 2025. The Commanders went 12-5, advancing to the NFC Championship game before losing to the eventual Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles.
