Daddy Yankee Helps Kick Off Inaugural Pro Padel League Season
May 15, 2023
North America’s first professional padel league is officially underway with the help of some famous guests. Latin music star Daddy Yankee, 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro, former world No. 2 tennis player Tommy Haas and MLS MVP Sebastian Giovinco were among the celebrities who helped kick off the Pro Padel League’s opening weekend in Florida. “We were so lucky to have the best ambassadors with us for the Pro Padel League opening weekend kick-off ahead of our inaugural season starting,” league commissioner Marcos del Pilar said. Padel was invented in Mexico in 1969. The sport is a hybrid of tennis and squash, is usually played in doubles and has an enclosed court about a third of the size of a tennis court. Over 25 million people play padel across 90 countries, according to the International Padel Federation, citing 2022 statistics. “Padel reminds me of the early stages of Reggaeton in the ‘90s when it was just starting up,” Daddy Yankee said. “It’s at the same stage and the Pro Padel League has a big potential to grow the sport and get bigger. I want to be a part of it and leave a legacy.” The Pro Padel League features seven teams: the Toronto Polar Bears, San Diego Stingrays, Miami PC, Los Angeles Beat, Las Vegas Smash, Arkansas Matrix and Cancun Waves. Haas is an owner of the Stingrays, Giovinco is an owner of the Polar Bears and del Potro is an advisor for Miami FC. Daddy Yankee also announced his ownership of the new Orlando franchise, which will join the league in 2024. The PPL season began with three matches on Saturday and three more on Sunday at the SVP Tennis Center in Zephyrhills, Fla. The inaugural PPL season will conclude on June 10-11 with its championship weekend. A semifinal round will determine which two teams compete for the PPL Cup. “We are building a league that is not only creating opportunities for everyone involved, but changing lives that will leave a lasting impact and create a legacy for future generations,” Del Pilar said.

Jessie James Decker Slams United for Forcing Pregnant Sister to Clean Kids' Mess on Flight
Apr 17, 2023
It’s no use crying over spilled popcorn. But a few kernels on the floor of an airplane caused a social media debate about parenting and entitlement after Sydney Raw Bass, the wife of Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Anthony Bass and sister to country superstar Jessie James Decker, was made to pick up popcorn spilled by her 2-year-old daughter while on a recent United Airlines flight. In a since-expired Instagram Story, Decker said her sister was “humiliated” while traveling alone with her and Anthony Bass’ two daughters, ages 2 and 5. “My sister @sydneyraebass just texted me from her flight on @united. As you know, she is five months pregnant, high-risk, and also traveling alone with her two small children. Blaire accidentally spilled some popcorn in the aisle, and the flight attendant came up to Sydney with a trash bag and a wet wipe, telling her the captain wants Syd to clean up every drop,” Decker wrote. She continued, “My poor sister is on her hands and knees, crying in the aisle, completely humiliated and exhausted, with her children while everyone else watched. Way to go, United.” Anthony Bass also posted about the incident in a Twitter post Sunday. The incident and their posts sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some agreeing that United should be responsible for cleaning it up while others coming to the airline’s defense, saying that Sydney Bass should clean up after her children. “Genuinely curious who should clean up the mess your 2 year old made?” one person responded on Twitter. “As a parent of three kids I am the one responsible for them.” “The cleaning crew they hire!” Bass replied. “I see a cleaning crew enter the plane every time I get off of one. You don’t think other people spill things? Or you think everyone cleans up after themselves when they do?” another person wrote. Some baseball fans used the incident to dish digs at the 35-year-old relief pitcher, who has played for seven teams during his 12-year career, and struggled early this season with a 7.11 ERA over 6 1/3 innings pitched. Shortly after his rant, the term “7.11 ERA” was trending on Twitter. “So throwing garbage runs in the family?” one person tweeted. Decker also clarified on her Instagram Story that United Airlines was the one to give her nieces the popcorn. The flight attendant, according to Sydney Bass, said it had to be picked up because it was a safety hazard. “You guys, this whole time I’m thinking that this popcorn is something Sydney just picked up at the little newsstand. Sydney had two flights, and United, on the first flight, they gave them both popcorn,” Decker wrote. “If popcorn is a hazard, why are they giving it on planes?” United Airlines responded to Bass’ Twitter post and the pitcher later confirmed in a tweet that the airline is “taking care of matters with the flight attendant internally.” He and Syd Bass announced last month that they are expecting a third child, a baby boy, due this summer.
