Playing without star striker Cristiano Ronaldo due to a left-knee injury, Madrid could afford to miss an early penalty and still go through against last season's runner-up thanks to its 3-0 home victory in the first leg last week. Marco Reus scored in the 24th and 37th minutes, and Dortmund wasted several excellent opportunities in the second half, including a shot against the post. Nine-time champion Madrid reached the semifinals for the fourth consecutive season....

MORE: Sam’s marketing opportunities | Sam at the Combine A mere three players out of the 60 or so on the Dolphins roster last season, active and injured players included, did the damage — and a case can be made that it was only one, Richie Incognito, with Mike Pouncey and John Jerry meekly and obediently following his lead. Their prime target, Jonathan Martin, was not gay or even suspected of being gay; he simply was an offensive linemate who they felt wasn’t up to their standard for “toughness....

It was pretty much the opposite on opening day Sunday at Heinz Field. Don’t get caught staring into the glare of the second half against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hoyer almost led the Browns to a stirring comeback victory. But he helped them dig a 24-point halftime hole in the first place.

You might wonder what they’re smoking in Ann Arbor. But there is logic to CAR’s prediction. Here’s how it goes: Detroit is on an unprecedented buyout binge. At GM alone, 34,000 workers have walked out the door in the last 10 months (20,000 left in one day, on Jan. 2, 2007).

The pitch got away from Pirates reliever Johnny Barbato, and caught Iannetta flush in the mush. Thankfully, Iannetta was able to walk off the field under his own power, though bloodied. Apparently, he lost a tooth on the play. Pirates catcher Chris Stewart took a retaliatory pitch from Tom Wilhelmson in the ninth inning, and now bygones are bygones.

The veteran broadcaster is known for her stern interview approach, but with a new documentary, Framing Britney Spears, shining the light on the popstar’s treatment by the media, many are condemning Sawyer for how she treated Spears. “I think it’s time to have a conversation about Diane Sawyer being one of the media’s greatest tools of misogyny in the aughts,” tweeted actor Jeremy O’Harris. “Her interviews w #BritneySpears #WhitneyHouston are truly some of the most vile from an era particularly vile to women in the limelight....

That incredibly crass question had been shouted by a British television correspondent working his way through huddled masses of European refugees fleeing the Congo in 1960. Behr wrote that “the BBC reporter’s callous cry summed up for me the tragic, yet wildly surrealist nature of the country itself.” But the seasoned men and women of the international press corps remembered the title because, funnily enough, horribly enough, it summed up the cynical practicality necessary to the work they did....

Fitzgerald has 1,432 career catches. He has posted 17,492 receiving yards. He has also scored 121 touchdowns. Impressively, that all came with what was largely a revolving door at the quarterback position. Fitzgerald is certainly the best receiver that the Cardinals have ever had. But where is he now? For the first time since 2003, he isn’t gracing the Cardinals’ sideline. Instead, Arizona will carry a loaded receiving corps, but one that doesn’t feature their previously longest-tenured, most beloved player....
