With the Bears main by 10 and about three minutes left on Dec. 16, 2018, inside linebacker Roquan Smith tipped an Aaron Rodgers move, sending the ball into the arms of security Eddie Jackson, who was standing on the left leg of the letter “A” in BEARS in Soldier Field’s south finish zone. With that, the Packers have been eradicated from playoff rivalry, and the Bears clinched the NFC North, placing a uncommon current blow within the sport’s biggest rivalry collection. Jackson’s feelings have been sophisticated by the truth that his interception return resulted in a excessive ankle sprain that price him the remainder of the season. But he remembers, within the second, pondering of the

Hope Solo, USWNT Make Peace; What’s Next For Legendary Soccer Goalkeeper?
Might Hope Solo actually resurrect her career with the United States women’s soccer team? The parties have taken the first step toward doing so by settling the grievance Solo filed against the U.S. Soccer Federation after it terminated her contract in 2016, according to The San Francisco Chronicle’s Ann Killon. Solo and U.S. Soccer reached the settlement last month, thus avoiding arbitration, but the legendary USA goalkeeper only announced it Thursday in a statement saying she and U.S. Soccer “have amicably resolved the matter and are moving forward in a positive way,” per Killon. U.S. Soccer in August 2016 suspended Solo six months then... NESN.com
Watch NBA Draft Pick Josh Jackson’s Horrendous First Pitch At MLB Game
Share this: Remember when rapper 50 Cent threw one of the worst first pitches in recent memory? Well, Phoenix Suns draft pick Josh Jackson gave the rap star a run for his money Friday night at an Arizona Diamondbacks game. Wow, that’s pretty bad. Luckily for Jackson, he’s a really good basketball player, particularly on the defensive end of the floor. The former Kansas Jayhawks star has a bright future with the Suns, but let’s hope he throws his passes on the court with a little more accuracy than his baseball tosses.

Some positives, some negatives for Crutchlow
“We now have another two days of testing left, where we hope we can improve the package we have even further. We had some more things we wanted to try today but didn’t manage to get done, however I felt good riding the bike and felt at ease. We know what the team and I are capable of doing around this circuit, and I feel that if we had the race again tomorrow we would be in a similar position. I’m happy with that, but we still need to work hard because I still think we can have a better feeling with this bike.” Source link
Martellus Bennett, Patriots Expect Success ‘Because We Work (Expletive) Hard’
by Zack Cox on Mon, Nov 28, 2016 at 8:30AM 2,411 Share this: EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Martellus Bennett might be the best wordsmith in the New England Patriots’ locker room. He’s certainly the most entertaining quote, making his stall a must-visit after any Patriots game. After New England rallied to knock off the New York Jets 22-17 on Sunday at MetLife Stadium, Bennett was asked whether the Patriots’ offense remained optimistic during a less-than-stellar first half featuring three punts, one missed field goal and just 10 points scored. “That’s the only way to look at it — you just expect to move the ball,” the Patriots tight end said. “It’s not like, ‘Oh, let’s hope.’ We don’t hope to move the ball. We expect to move the
