Joe Flacco talks about 'embarrassing' TikTok dances: 'Be an adult'
Joe Flacco talks about 'embarrassing' TikTok dances: 'Be an adult' Show Caption Hide Caption Greg Olsen believes Travis Kelce 'controls how he leaves the game' Former NFL tight end Greg Olsen has high praise for Travis Kelce and shares when he believes Travis Kelce will eventually retire from the NFL. Sports Seriously Joe Flacco is the elder statesman of the Cleveland Browns quarterback room. Having just turned 40 in January, Flacco has morphed into the "back in my day guy" and is now just one step away from telling the young whippersnappers to get off his lawn. Flacco has embraced that youthful energy in the twilight of his NFL career, taking the opportunity to pose for a fun photo at media day with rookie, Dillon Gabriel. Regardless, he continued to provide plenty of entertainment for the media following Wednesday's minicamp practices, turning the session into a chat about social media, TikTok and posting dancing videos online. Flacco began discussing Twitter, now known as X, as it has evolved into a primary source of news. "The difference now is, everybody's getting their stuff from there, and it's treated a little bit more seriously because that is the main news source," Flacco said, via 92.3 The Fan's Daryl Ruiter. "You still have the same thing you always had, which is a million different opinions, but it kind of blends your actual news source with a bunch of other stuff." Joe Flacco has thoughts on social media, including TikTok dances. A pretty entertaining 2 minutes of video here #Browns — Daryl Ruiter (@RuiterWrongFAN) June 11, 2025 The quarterback went on to say that Instagram is the only social media platform he's used and made one thing clear –don't expect him to show up in a TikTok dancing video anytime soon. "No TikTok dances," Flacco said. "The fact that people want to get on their phones and show people. That's embarrassing! You're an adult. Be an adult. I can't wrap my head around that." He followed up with some advice for the parents. "I get it, you have kids and you wanna have fun with your kids," Flacco added. "Like, have fun with your kids in private." Flacco appears to be no fan of the current social media landscape, but he also extended his media availability to discuss the good old days. While he wasn't walking up and down the rolling hills in 10 feet of snow to school, the quarterback did end up speaking about players who think offseason activities are too hard in the modern NFL. "We're out there for an hour 15 minutes and guys think it's hard," Flacco said via Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein, referencing the two-a-days that used to be commonplace in the NFL. Old Guy Joe Flacco laughs at players who think today's OTAs are hard: 'We're out there for an hour 15 minutes and guys think it's hard.' — Jori Epstein (@JoriEpstein) June 11, 2025 He went on to add that organized team activities (OTAs) used to be over two hours, highlighting just how much has changed since he entered the league in 2008. In other words, Flacco was in a reminiscing mood as the Super Bowl champion prepares for his 18th season in the league.

NBA Finals 2025: Myles Turner's patience has paid off with the Pacers after years of trade rumors — 'I'm a loyal guy'
INDIANAPOLIS — Myles Turner showing his value as a do-it-all big in the NBA Finals isn't a surprise. Myles Turner doing it in an Indiana Pacers uniform is the surprise, considering how many times he's been viewed as everybody else's 'missing piece,' constantly in trade rumors. Advertisement Yet somehow he's played the eighth-most games (703) for the team that drafted him — trailing only Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Jokić, Jaylen Brown, Devin Booker and Jayson Tatum among current players. To put that rarity in further context, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander doesn't fit in that category, after being traded following his rookie year in Los Angeles — and even if he did, he's played a little more than half of Turner's games in an Oklahoma City uniform. All of the aforementioned names have played in the NBA Finals and now Turner, in the last year of his contract with the Pacers, adds to the list. (Grant Thomas/Yahoo Sports Illustration) 'I'm a loyal guy,' Turner told Yahoo Sports recently. 'It's always kind of been my calling card, I wanted to finish what I started. Of course it is flattering for teams to see your value, want you to be part of your system. But I wanted to do it where I was drafted.' Advertisement He's been with the Pacers long enough to play with former mainstay Paul George and Monta Ellis on those squads from a decade ago. A few years later, he was on the teams that featured Domantas Sabonis and Victor Oladipo, when Oladipo looked like the next great shooting guard. He's played under Frank Vogel, Nate McMillan, Nate Bjorkgren and, now, Rick Carlisle. 'He's extremely loyal. He has a great ability to focus on what's important,' Carlisle said Tuesday. 'Over the years, I think all players that are really good players, at some time or another, likely have their name involved in trade rumors. Whether it's leaked by another team, whether it's somebody that just is throwing stuff on the wall, creating content, whatever it is.' It was the pairing with Sabonis that highlighted the Pacers' need to get rid of one big man, just like the Sacramento Kings had one point guard too many — thus creating a natural trade partner in the 2021-22 season. By then Turner had already had his name linked to any and everybody. Advertisement 'It was a lot of things. You know, my first initial emotions was, you feel a little rejected,' Turner said to Yahoo Sports. 'You feel like your value doesn't hold the same weight you thought it did, but then you start to learn it's just part of a business.' But the Pacers chose Turner over Sabonis, and acquired Tyrese Haliburton in a deal with the Kings. Even though Turner was hurt at the time — he missed the second half of that season with a stress reaction in his foot — the deal shifted Turner back to center and gave him a true point guard. It was impossible to predict, though, that the Pacers, who won just five games after that trade deadline, would be laying the groundwork for a conference finals run two years later and a trip to the Finals this year. Advertisement '(It took) a lot of patience,' Turner said. 'I wouldn't call it waiting my turn, but just staying down. Just doing things the right way and letting the rest take care of itself. 'So I think when the trade happened, it was that final piece that allowed me to step into my natural position.' Perhaps because only so much NBA bandwidth is attributed to the Pacers, it's easy to forget Turner represents everything teams want in today's bigs. Can you stretch the floor? Check, he's a 40% 3-point shooter on nearly six attempts a game. Can you defend in space and at the rim? Check, check, he's led the league in blocks twice and is averaging 2 per game this year. Are you also strong enough to finish at the rim? Check, check, check. The numbers may look modest to some — 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in this playoff run — but everyone can see his value. Advertisement 'We constantly are sending each other clips of how we can be better in pick-and-roll, how I can help him, how he can help me, whatever the case is,' Haliburton said. 'We get along really well. I think that that has given us a lot of success.' Haliburton laughed, thinking about Richaun Holmes being the first big he played with in Sacramento. 'I always thought in my career I was going to be best with a guy who plays above the rim and a pick-and-roll threat,' said Haliburton, who estimates he's thrown maybe 'three alley-oops' since he's played with Turner. "Now having experience playing with Myles so long, I feel like he unlocks a lot of what I do. 'It's been an interesting dynamic to play alongside him. Myles is not going to catch a ton of lobs. ... It's different. Our league is different. He's a pop guy more times than not. When he does roll, he does open things up for me, as well. It's been a lot of fun.' Advertisement Even this series is different with the Oklahoma City Thunder playing a lot of one-big lineups, pitting Turner against Chet Holmgren or Isaiah Hartenstein. He's solid enough where he can't be moved around in the paint. His step-back, off-the-glass 3-pointer in Game 1 was critical in the Pacers completing an improbable comeback, and perhaps they'll need more. But Turner is careful about wanting to do too much. 'Continue to be myself, do the things that got me here,' he told Yahoo Sports. 'There's no need, once you get to the Finals stage, don't switch things. You keep doing all the little things that make you effective in the first place.' Advertisement To Carlisle's credit, he wanted no part of the talk about Turner going anywhere as a free agent, and it seems like the Pacers will be aggressive in trying to keep him this summer. 'I haven't heard his name in rumors lately,' Carlisle said, somewhat annoyed. 'I don't know what you're talking about. Unless you're talking about free agency, we're not going to get into any of that. There's a fine, so I'm going to avoid that.' Carlisle has preached the Finals being 19 days long, so Turner won't admit to too much looking ahead to free agency, either. 'I'm looking forward to the next days in front of me. And once I get there, I'll be there,' Turner said. 'It's idle time between games, so you can't look to the future too much.'
