Happy Friday! You made it to the end of the week, congratulations!

This week, we’re asking AB readers to tell us about their podcast listening habits. We’re thinking about launching a podcast, but we need to hear from you before we do! If you’ve got some time, take a few moments and take our survey!

Now, to the news highlights…

• A Cincinnati-area boy’s basketball team caused outrage when they showed up to their rec league game sporting jerseys with offensive names on the back and a vulgar phrase on the front. The league banned the team.

• Florida Governor Rick Scott named his college football national champion. Spoiler alert: It’s not Alabama.
• We took a look at how locker rooms at all levels of sports have evolved and are being redesigned for the modern era.
