Arizona Cardinals fans haven't had an exciting new rookie star like Marvin Harrison Jr. in a while. And you still might not see any Harrison jerseys at the team's home opener. There has been a dispute between Harrison, the fourth overall pick of the NFL Draft, and the sports merchandising company Fanatics for months. It includes a Fanatics lawsuit against Harrison. Harrison didn't sign his licensing deal with the NFLPA, as practically every other player does upon entering the NFL. That meant his jersey couldn't be sold. And fans are still going to have to wait. NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reported that the NFLPA advised the league, the Cardinals and Fanatics they are not permitted to sell Harrison jerseys. That is "based on the wishes of his representatives," Rapoport said. Fanatics sued Harrison for breach of contract, ESPN reported in May. In the lawsuit, Fanatics said Harrison signed a deal with the company in May 2023, but Harrison "has refused to fulfill his obligations to the deal while he also 'publicly asserted' that the contract does not exist." The deal was to include autographs and game-worn apparel, among other items. All fans care about is when they go to the Cardinals' team site there is not a single Harrison jersey for sale. Harrison, the electric receiver out of Ohio State, would likely be one of the NFL's best-selling jerseys if it was available. We'll see when they become available.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
