You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get after it.
Milwaukee is still buzzing. The Brewers' World Series parade brought an entire city to its feet, with the spirit of the late Bob Uecker woven through every moment of the celebration. Fans flooded the streets for what many are calling the best day in the city's history, a championship long overdue finally delivered.
Shifting to football, Philip Rivers may be heading back to Raleigh. The former NC State quarterback is deep in conversations about taking on a coaching role with his alma mater, according to ESPN sources. No deal is imminent, but the discussions are serious, and Wolfpack fans have to be intrigued by the idea of bringing one of their own back home.
And keeping an eye on the future of the position, NFL scouts already have their eyes locked on Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker. In a midseason poll of twenty-five scouts, Mestemaker was the overwhelming consensus pick to go first among quarterbacks in the two thousand twenty-seven draft, a remarkable amount of buzz for a player still two years from the podium.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
