WEDNESDAY’S BROADCAST HIGHLIGHTS:NBA: Miami at Boston, 7:30 p.m. (NBCSB)
AROUND THE WEB:
-- Get ready for Tom vs. Time: E! Edition.
Tom Brady’s interview with E! for the new series "In the Room" airs on Wednesday night and it promises a “candid” conversation with the quarterback.
In the promotional clip for the episode, Jason Kennedy talks with Brady about his marriage to Gisele Bundchen.
“I think we just have to make sure we take time for one another,” Brady said. “And I think if you want it to get better and improve, you’ve gotta communicate. I want to support her and her dreams. She wants to support me and mine.”
The interview will likely be one long TB12 commercial and I have no doubt Kennedy’s big question will be about when Brady will retire.
-- The Panthers have fired head coach Ron Rivera after nine years at the Carolina helm.
Rivera also told the Panthers website he had some “great years” in Carolina.
"We did a lot," Rivera said. "The people. We brought in good men, good coaches. We did things the right way."
The team will use a search committee to find the next coach.
