-- Julian Edelman is trying his hand at being a movie critic.
The Patriots wide receiver is now part of the Hollywood elite after the release of his documentary, 100%: Julian Edelman, and debuted his new YouTube series, MovieTyme, by reviewing Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
"It delves into a vast and profound world of Hollywood in its golden age," said Edelman, while reviewing the movie with Sony Michel. "A lot of complex themes, challenging artistry and well-crafted writing."

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "We just want to dance, man. We just want to get there, that's all we want. It really doesn't matter — obviously you want to avoid that game, that's the goal of every team that's in the playoff hunt, you don't want to play that game. But if that's the way, and we found a way to win that game and go on the road, we really don't care." -- Alex Cora, on the Red Sox wanting to get to the playoffs
