A banner that read “Stop rape & domestic abuse. Beat FSU” flew over the stadium. It’s an interesting combination of messages but maybe saying just one isn’t enough. MORE: Steve Spurrier makes joke about Clemson | Boy drops to his knees after missed FG | Ice cream eating in the snow One is definitely a good message and depending on who you root for, the other could be seen as one too....
Ibarra underwent surgery Sunday after his fibula was fractured by a hard tackle from Andres Andrade in Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Leon and will miss the rest of the season. “The operation was completed in a satisfactory manner, and I’m very happy with the procedure for Renato,” said Rafael Ortega, the Guadalajara-based doctor who performed the surgery. “Surely in three months he’ll be returning to the fields.” Andrade, who used to play for America, called Ibarra to apologize and clarify he hadn’t intended harm....
“Y’all keep asking us for a low carb option,” Domino’s Australia captioned the TikTok video of the recipe attempt last week. The original watermelon BBQ pizza went viral in June when TikTok chef Oliver Paterson shared the recipe to his account. “Ok, let’s give this a go then,” said Domino’s text-to-speech generator in the video, after showing a clip from Paterson’s video. A Domino’s worker can be seen slicing the center of a watermelon before layering it with sauce, cheese and pepperoni....
Conservatives are basking in the television wrangling, saying it’s proof of Lemon’s liberal agenda. In the now-viral clip, Lemon asks the expert “what effect climate change has on this phenomenon.” Jamie Rhome, acting director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Hurricane Center, tried to redirect Lemon’s focus. “We can come back and talk about climate change at a later time. I want to focus on the here and now,” Rhome said before returning to talk of the hurricane....
He’ll deny it. He has denied it. But in the last month or so, the Colorado governor’s publicity people have been busy. Polis has written an op-ed in the Washington Post defending charter schools. Libertarian journalist Nick Gillespie recorded a glowing podcast profile for Reason. There was a holiday weekend puff piece in The Hill. And this Monday, the Wall Street Journal praised Polis for standing up to the climate lobby....
But now, thanks to Pro Football Focus, Roethlisberger has an interesting stat on his side. Anybody who wants to claim the Patriots have owned the Steelers because Tom Brady is so much better than Roethlisberger needs to dig deeper for legitimate arguments. NFL QB RANKINGS: Why Big Ben is in the second tier PFF’s Ben Linsey recently published a list of what he calls “NFL team-killers” — basically the one opposing player who has been the biggest headache for each NFL team since 2006 (the PFF era)....
Yevgeny Khruschev is among those looking back. A former psychological operations officer in the Soviet Army, he served in Afghanistan’s Paktia Province from 1982 to 1984. Five years after he left the country, the Soviets made their final withdrawal-defeated, and with a depleted economy that helped touch off the disintegration of the U.S.S.R. Khrushchev (no relation to the former Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev), is now deputy chairman for international affairs of the Afghan Veterans’ Union....
President Clinton proposes 50 or so new federal capital offenses. Congress added a few others in 1988, resulting in six condemned inmates. There are about 2,700 prisoners on state death rows. The Brady bill would impose a five-day waiting period on handgun purchases but would not otherwise ban sales. The National Rifle Association estimates the number of handguns nationwide at 65 million. The anti-crime package would add 50,000 officers to local forces across the country–at a cost of $3....
Seems simple, right? MORE: SN’s preseason All-Americans | SN Top 25 | Best 2015 QBs Well, someone didn’t get the memo, because on Monday morning, running back Warren Ball Jr. snapped this photo. The Ohio State blog Eleven Warriors was able to determine based on the Alaska license plate and Lawrenceville Academy sticker that the car belongs to kicker Jack Willoughby, a recent graduate transfer from Duke.

Trump Jr,’s book Triggered: How the Left Thrives on Hate and Wants to Silence Us was changed by TGL to Daddy, Please Love Me: How Everything I Do Is to Try to Earn My Father’s Love. Not even the Young Adult section was safe from the joke. “We did the stunt to reach Don Jr.,” TGL said in a statement. “It’s pretty obvious that President Trump doesn’t love him, and Junior’s attempts to get his father’s attention—dressing up as his father for Halloween and marrying a Fox News personality that looks conspicuously like Melania—have been really hard to watch....
Minutes before Silver addressed the media, Sterling told Gray he was unaware what his punishment would be and that the team was not for sale. Of course, that sale could be out of his hands if Silver has the necessary 23 owners to vote in favor of forcing Sterling to sell the team. Watch Gray's comments below.
Mac Daddy Santa, in case you haven’t seen, is Woods posing Thursday as a shirtless Santa that went viral on Twitter. No word on how well Trump, reportedly a low single-digit handicap, or Woods played. Woods is no stranger to presidential golf outings. He played a round with President Obama three years ago in Panama City, Fla.
ABC News reported Friday night that Trump spoke by phone with the former MLB slugger from the Oval Office and asked for ideas on dealing with the emergency. Rodriguez, a source told the network, will not be part of any official effort to combat the pandemic. Neither will his fiancee, singer/actress Jennifer Lopez. The source also said the call was “pleasant,” which is a surprise to many people who remember how Trump repeatedly ripped Rodriguez on Twitter as the former Yankees infielder struggled in the 2012 AL playoffs and then got entangled in the Biogenesis scandal....
“It’s Mitch McConnell’s fault. Spending money to defeat great Republican candidates instead of backing Blake Masters and others was a big mistake. Giving 4 Trillion Dollars to the Radical Left for the Green New Deal, not Infrastructure, was an even bigger mistake. He blew the Midterms, and everyone despises him and his otherwise lovely wife, Coco Chow!” Trump said on his social media platform, Truth Social. Democrats achieved major gains in some states over the past week, while Trump-endorsed Republican candidates were left with losses that the GOP found disappointing as they were positioning themselves for a Senate majority....
“The Lamestream Media is not talking about what is happening with the Stock Market and JOBS. Both are doing GREAT!” Trump wrote on Twitter Monday morning. “The Radical Left will destroy the USA. Be careful what you wish for!” The president’s comments trailed a series of similar ones. Speaking about the strengths of his economic policies over presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s at the White House on Friday, Trump said: “I created the greatest economy we’ve ever had....
A Tuesday article in The New York Times claims that two sources “familiar with the matter” say Trump learned of the complaint well in advance of his early September decision to release aid the Ukraine, after allegedly holding it up as part of a “quid pro quo” scheme in exchange for the President Volodymyr Zelenskiy launching an investigation of political rival Joe Biden. The report alleges that White House lawyers Pat A....
Add Emmitt Smith to the list of big-name celebrities pulling out of the Trump-owned Miss USA 2015 pageant, which is scheduled to be held in Baton Rouge, La., on July 12. Per TMZ.com, Smith joins his former ‘Dancing With The Stars’ winning partner Cheryl Burke, Puerto Rican actress Roselyn Sanchez and rapper Flo Rida in boycotting the event.

“He’s being evaluated by a team of experts and together we’ll be making recommendations to the president and first lady in regards to next best steps,” White House physician Sean Conley wrote in a memo released to reporters Friday afternoon. Conley revealed that Trump was infused with an 8-gram dose of a polyclonal antibody cocktail made by Regeneron. The New York biotechnology firm’s treatment, called REGN-COV2, is still in clinical trials, but Regeneron released an update this week that early results found it reduced viral levels and improved symptoms for non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients, particularly those given the 8-gram dose....
The White House released a statement from official presidential physician, Dr. Sean P. Conley at 11:34 p.m. on Twitter from the account of press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. “This afternoon, in consultation with specialists from Walter Reed and Johns Hopkins University, I recommended movement of the President up to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for further monitoring. This evening I am happy to report that the President is doing very well....
The comments from Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, put him somewhat at odds with Trump and many of his supporters, who are pushing to get measures lifted so as to get the economy running once again. “My concern is that we might start to see little spikes that will turn into outbreaks,” Fauci told the Senate Health Committee over video link, when commenting on the risks of areas re-opening too quickly....
