Joe Burrow’s return will have to wait.

The Cincinnati Bengals decided not to start Burrow on Sunday against the New England Patriots, despite the QB being close to returning from his toe injury, sources tell @diannarussini.bsky.social.

Trump bitched about how Biden gave a fist bump to MBS instead of a handshake.

But he's always sitting down at his desk when he greets people in the Oval Office.

Spare me the lesson on decorum.

🇵🇱 Sources: Mateusz Bogusz is likely to leave Cruz Azul this winter, with several MLS clubs interested.

New England Revolution hold Bogusz's discovery rights (priority to negotiate).

Bogusz, 24, joined Cruz Azul from LAFC last winter in ~$9m deal. Had 15g/7a in 2024 for LAFC.

Maye is absolutely in the zone right now. So much poise in the pocket.

Pats on offense is must-see.

Not for nothing, but Tom Brady‘s face looks like it spent some time underneath Ninja Crispi.

Screw the tush push.

Gimme the Pats’ storm surge!

Every year our schedule is front loaded with away games to minimize the impacts of cold weather. And our crowds suck because of it. There's no homefield advantage to begin with and this just makes it that much worse.
The New England Revolution say: "We also appreciate the league’s proactive steps to minimize the impact of this transition on cold-weather markets like New England, where seasonal climates can significantly affect the matchday experience."

For a transit geek, this article (and accompanying interactive graphics) are amazing. This is really well done.
For the 600K people who pass through every day, Penn Station is indispensable. It remains the busiest transit hub in the U.S. It is also widely abhorred. More broadly, it is a stagnant symbol of something deeper in America, a condition that afflicts so many attempts to get big things done: inertia.

Look, I get it - it makes financial sense for MLS to switch to a European type schedule with regards to FIFA windows and player transactions.

But I fear that the real damage will be to those fanbases of teams in the north. You'll see massive hits to STH renewals. And forget casuals coming out.

Just when you thought @schumer.senate.gov finally - finally - had a modicum of fortitude and would see out an actual hard stance by the Democrats, he did what he always does and ultimately capitulates, accomplishing nothing yet again.

Tell you what - we can compromise:

We get to call it Trump Memorial Stadium.

“That would surely be a beautiful name, as it was President Trump who made the rebuilding of the new stadium possible,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNN in a statement.
