Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association reached a new  collective bargaining agreement, finally halting a 99-day owner-imposed lockout fraught with rampant tension and colored by heightened mistrust.

Twenty-six of the 38 union leaders voted in favor of a five-year CBA that saw its members make significant gains with regard to minimum salaries and the competitive balance tax threshold, among other areas. The 30 team owners ratified the deal by a unanimous vote, according to the league, finalizing a CBA that provided them with an expanded postseason field and the ability to place advertisements on uniforms.

MLB commissioner Rob Manfred, the face of pointed criticism from players throughout the process, said he “could not be more excited about the future of our game” and vowed to work more closely with MLBPA executive director Tony Clark with hopes of bridging a noticeable gap.

The NFL announced that it has suspended Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley indefinitely for betting on NFL games during the 2021 season.

Ridley is suspended through at least the conclusion of the 2022 season.

According to the NFL, Ridley placed bets during a five-day period in late November 2021, when he was away from the club’s facility on the non-football illness list. The former first-round pick played in just five games in 2021 before leaving the club to focus on his “mental well-being.”

“There is nothing more fundamental to the NFL’s success — and to the reputation of everyone associated with our league — than upholding the integrity of the game,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote in a letter notifying Ridley of the suspension.

Pamela Anderson will be showing off her vocal pipes next month when she takes over the role of Roxie Hart in “Chicago.”

The 54-year-old will be making her Broadway debut at the Ambassador Theatre. 

She steps into a role previously played by Gwen Verdon, Ann Reinking, Brooke Shields, Ashlee Simpson and Melanie Griffith.

The announcement comes on the heels of another project for the former “Baywatch” babe — a Netflix documentary that will share her side of the story regarding her infamous sex tape with ex-husband Tommy Lee.

Pamela Anderson said, “From ‘Baywatch’ to Broadway. I am inspired by the unexpected.”
