TNT is going big with the 10th installment of The Match.
TNT is going big with the 10th installment of The Match.
This time around, it’ll be a two-night event in prime time with no pro golfers but eight big-time celebrities as well as a star-studded announcing crew.
Dubbed “The Match: Superstars,” the competition will be televised on Thursday, Nov. 21, and Friday, Nov. 22, with coverage simulcast on TNT and Max. The event was filmed at The Breakers Rees Jones Golf Course at Breakers West Country Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Check out the celebrity lineup: Bill Murray, Mark Wahlberg, Charles Barkley, Wayne Gretzky, Michael Phelps, Nate Bargatze, Ken Griffey, Jr. and Blake Griffin.
The initial matches will pit Murray and Gretzky against Barkley and Griffey as well as Wahlberg and Phelps vs. Bargatze and Griffin.
There will then be semifinals and a final match. Those will be individual match play contests with the eventual winner banking $1 million.
Thursday Nov. 21
Wahlberg/Phelps vs. Bargatze/Griffin, 7:30 p.m.
Barkley/Griffey Jr. vs. Gretzky/Murray, 9 p.m.
Friday, Nov. 22
Semifinals, 7:30 p.m.
Final match, 9 p.m.
Calling the action is TNT’s Ernie Johnson, back at the Match for a fifth time. He’s joined by Charles Barkley, who will be making his ninth appearance at The Match as either a player or commentator. Also, a pair of Masters champs – Trevor Immelman and Bubba Watson – will provide analysis. Kathryn Tappen returns as the on-course reporter.
In September, Golfweek reported on a Match featuring Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler against Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau. That PGA Tour vs. LIV event is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 17 in Las Vegas.
Can’t find the latest Hard Knocks episode on Max? The streamer provided an explanation for that.
For NFL fans who wondered where the latest episode of Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Chicago Bears is on Max was on Tuesday at its scheduled time, the streamer had an answer for that.
The annual NFL documentary series didn’t premier its latest episode at its planned post time on Max on Tuesday night, sparking the instant question of when it’d become available on the streaming platform.
Well, Sports on Max confirmed the delay on social media and said that the latest episode “will be available soon.”
The episode reportedly aired on HBO as scheduled, meaning that it’s in the can and ready to share. It’s just a matter of when it’ll be ready to stream on Max at this point, which could hypothetically be at any time.
There is a delay for tonight's episode of #HardKnocks: Training Camp with the @ChicagoBears on Max. The episode will be available soon.
A lot of great streaming options across many platforms this month!
The calendar has (finally) turned to February, and we’re that much closer to spring. There’s just one month left to catch up on all the Oscar-nominated movies before the awards ceremony, and the highly-acclaimed Best Picture nominee Past Lives has popped onto Showtime.

Here are 40 of our picks of some of the best options across Apple TV+, Paramount+, Showtime, Max, Hulu, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and Peacock.

If you’ve ever wanted to dine at the fictional Satriale’s Pork Store from The Sopranos, today is (potentially) your lucky day.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the show debuting its pilot, HBO announced a partnership with Postmates that allows fans of the show to eat like a made man.
Unfortunately, only fans in New York and Los Angeles (and surprisingly not New Jersey!) can enjoy this deal. But if you live in either of those cities, you can potentially have an iconic meal styled like a Satriale sandwich delivered to your doorsteps.
All this from a slice of gabagool? We're bringing Satriale's to life for one day only through an exclusive partnership with @Postmates to celebrate 25 years of #TheSopranos. Fans in New York and LA can open the app and order The Gabagool, powered by Ggiata Delicatessen and… pic.twitter.com/F0Y6L19MbX
For fans who live in Los Angeles, they can use the Postmates app to deliver from one of the Ggiata Delicatessen locations. Meanwhile, folks in New York can find the sandwich from Regina’s Grocery.
Both restaurants, for today only, are searchable under Satriale’s.
They will have the sandwich (for $10 before delivery fees) listed as The Gabagool, which is what series lead Tony Soprano calls the Italian cold-cut meat also known as capicola.
Even though it is disappointing that this sandwich is only available in a limited quantity and while supplies last at participating locations, that will make it even more special for the lucky few who get their hands on such a treat.

Good morning, Winners! I hope you’re well. Thank you so much for reading this morning.
The media landscape just got a little bit weirder with the announcement that there’ll be some sports programming coming to HBO’s streaming platform, Max.
And, no, I don’t mean the sports programming we’re used to from HBO. This isn’t just Bryant Gumbel or Bomani Jones hitting us with gems on their various talk shows or documentaries about some of our favorite athletes.
Nah, y’all. I’m talking actual sports.
Starting in October, MAX will add live sports to its service under the Bleacher Report brand, according to Front Office Sports. The package is going to include live MLB, NHL, NBA, College Basketball and U.S. Soccer action. It’ll initially be free until February 2024 in its promotional period, but following that users will have to pay an additional $9.99 per month.
I don’t think there’s a soul out there who has ever asked to watch live sports on HBO. I’m not sure who wants that. Nobody is going to say no to it, though. The more sports for the consumer to consumer, the better. And it’s free — for now.
But that’s the concern, right? It’s free for now. But it won’t be free forever. And this isn’t just a cable option everyone has access to through their television provider. It’s something you have to pay an extra fee for.
Today, it’s fine. The games will still be simulcasted on other Warner Bros. Discovery channels. We’ll also still have access to other games on other channels, too, like ESPN.
But what about when those things go away? Because that might be coming.
Watching live sports today is becoming more and more like a scavenger hunt. Our streaming overlords have slowly begun to conquer sports and, all of a sudden, I miss simple cable.
Wow. Never thought I’d say that.

The New York Liberty are moving forward to the WNBA semifinals after dispatching the Washington Mystics on Tuesday night.
It was a close and competitive game the Mystics had ample opportunity to find a way to win, but turnovers combined with the dominance in the paint of Jonquel Jones (19 points, 14 rebounds) put Washington away.
In this game we saw the sheer versatility of the Liberty. Sabrina Ionescu doesn’t have it tonight? Ok, cool. We’ll go to Jones in the paint. Courtney Vandersloot seems a bit off? Fine, let’s just run inverted pick-and-rolls with Breanna Stewart as the ball handler.
The Liberty creates so many mismatches that most teams can’t handle. This is why we want the Aces vs. Liberty series so badly. They counter each other so well. Not only just in talent, but also in scheme. I can’t wait to see if we actually get it. We’ll see if we have any upsets along the way.
New York find out who it plays in the semis on Wednesday night when the Connecticut Sun and Minnesota Lynx play a decisive Game 3. Should be fun.
Winner of Sun/Lynx @ New York Liberty (Sunday, Sept. 24. 1 p.m. ET)
RIP to the no-no
No-hitters in the MLB haven’t had a very good month. Actually, scratch that. They haven’t had a very good week-and-some-change.
In the last 10 days, four different team no-hitters have been broken up in the 9th inning or later, according to MLB.com’s Dylan Svoboda. I don’t know what’s wilder — the fact that four teams have nearly pulled off no-hitters in a 10-day span or the fact that all four have been broken up.
Here’s a wild stat, per Svoboda:
“The four no-hit bids have all happened over the past 10 days, which is the shortest span in at least the expansion era (1961), per the Elias Sports Bureau.
The 10-day span surpasses the previous 18-day record, which happened from Aug. 29 to Sept. 15 of this season and Apr. 23 to May 10 in 1989.”
Look, I know. I know. Some of you don’t believe in team no-hitters. But, honestly, this just goes to show you how difficult a feat that is to pull off and no-hitters are already hard.
Best of luck to the next team that comes this close.
