Mbappé Eyeing Historic Feat For Real Madrid

All things considered, it has been a fairly quiet week for Kylian Mbappé. After riding the bench in their 4-1 win against Real Sociedad, Mbappé returned to the starting XI in Lisbon, where, despite bagging an assist, he was unable to assert his presence in a 1-0 win against Benfica in the first leg of […]

On Saturday I covered the titles for Safir Azam and Adla Lopez at the ITF J200 in the Dominican Republic, but that was just the tip of the iceberg, with US juniors claiming nine additional singles titles on the ITF Junior Circuit last week. Tomas Laukys won his biggest title at the J100 in Trnava Slovakia, with the unseeded 15-year-old defeating No. 2 seed Dominik Macej of Slovakia 7-6(5),

Padres conquer Brewers, ABS challenge system

The San Diego Padres had a late start to their practice routine on Monday, before they played the Milwaukee Brewers at Peoria Sports Complex. The players had their MLBPA union meeting as well as their normal team meetings and didn’t appear on the practice fields until 10:30 a.m. or later. That did not seem to […]

Sami Khedira: “Arbeloa has freed Vinicius” up

Former Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira shared thoughtful and, at times, pointed reflections in an interview with AS, touching on the club’s recent coaching transition, Vinícius Jr.’s evolution, and the broader responsibilities that come with superstardom. Khedira, who shared a dressing room with some of Madrid’s most influential figures during a golden era, did not […]

Quick Recap: Jays Lose To Mets

The important news is that Kazuma Okamoto homered, a two-run shot. Beyond that, Jose Berrios pitched 2.2 innings, allowing 3 hits, 2 earned, 1 walk with 2 strikeouts. It doesn’t sound great, but he allowed them in his third inning of work. And I think he’s the first Jay to throw more than two innings […]

Fernando Morientes Backs Real Madrid’s Title Chances and Urges Patience Amid Transition

Speaking at an event organized by La Liga and Airbnb, former Real Madrid striker Fernando Morientes addressed the club’s current situation, the recent coaching change, and the team’s prospects in Europe.

Former Browns QB returning makes a lot of sense in NFL free agency

Heading into the NFL offseason that starts at the NFL combine, the Cleveland Browns have three quarterbacks on their roster: Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson, and Dillon Gabriel. At this point, most assume that Sanders is the starting quarterback, Watson could get a chance under new HC Todd Monken, and Gabriel could be elsewhere, perhaps back […]

UEFA Dismisses Benfica’s Complaint Against Fede Valverde

The fallout from the first leg between Real Madrid and Benfica has taken another turn — and this time, it ends without consequences for Fede Valverde. Benfica confirmed that UEFA has rejected the formal complaint they submitted against the Uruguayan midfielder.

Real Madrid Walking a Tightrope: Six Players One Booking Away from Suspension Ahead of Potential Round of 16 Clash

Real Madrid head into their decisive clash with Benfica knowing qualification isn’t the only thing at stake. Vinícius Jr.’s goal in Lisbon tilted the tie in Madrid’s favor, but his post-goal celebration carried consequences, even if unjust. The Brazilian was shown a yellow card that now leaves him walking a disciplinary tightrope. Another booking on […]

A flurry of contact from Arraez

Spring Training is a mirage. It’s a wavery vision that sits atop the horizon, and in this oasis, we see what we want to see, trying to discern, predict, manifest, what lies further on up the road in the regular season.  I put this into practice as I ventured out into the blizzard currently pummeling […]

What’s Next for the Colts QB room?

The Colts finished their 2022 season in embarrassing fashion. They fired their HC for the second time in Chris Ballard’s tenure, hired a former franchise legend and ESPN analyst to be their interim coach, and blew one of the biggest leads in NFL history late in the year— just to add insult to an already […]
