Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero has won a record seven Premier League Player of the Month awards. The Argentine put one of the keepsakes to good use as a makeshift platform for his PS4 camera while playing FIFA. This is, as the kids say, a flex.

St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Adam Wainwright had trouble sleeping early this week, so he hosted a mini-concert with his trusty guitar and smooth vocal stylings.

Washington Nationals reliever Sean Doolittle found the perfect way to while away his time during the pandemic by stumbling on the AI meme generator. It's a descent into random absurdity that only gets funnier as more nonsense memes get plucked from the ether.

You've heard about trust falls, but what about trust catches? Cleveland Browns star Odell Beckham Jr. is known for his one-handed grabs, so much so that one of his friends put his face on the line to help show off OBJ's one-handed abilities.

Maple Leafs stars Auston Matthews and Frederik Andersen are quarantining far from Toronto and seem to be making the most of it. Both the delivery and the finish on this alley-oop are perfect. Their place doesn't look too shabby, either.
