New Era Cap, the official on-field cap of the NFL, is releasing their new 2025 NFL Sidelines Collection today. Their national campaign and commercial stars quarterback Josh Allen, and New Era's goal is to reflect the weather on game day with hats that are built to perform in scorching heat and in freezing cold.

Tops parent company, Northeast Grocery, is exploring a potential sale. The grocery giant that owns Tops Friendly Markets and Price Chopper is working with multinational investment bank UBS on the sale process. A spokesperson for the company told Reuters [quote] "We continually explore opportunities to grow our business in a variety of ways, including but not limited to mergers, acquisitions or otherwise" [end quote]. The private sale has attracted attention from private equity firms and other grocers, with Northeast Grocery's value estimated to be over $1 billion, including debt.
