by Zack Cox on Tue, Nov 20, 2018 at 12:08AM The Los Angeles Rams did the New England Patriots a solid Monday night.

Conor McGregor, Drake Meet Up In Toronto Before Pre-Fight Presser
Share this: In case you hadn’t heard, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather are having a little boxing match. The fight between the UFC lightweight champion and the undefeated boxer is expected to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars, which means the two are doing a huge press tour ahead of the Aug. 26 showdown. And on the Toronto leg of their tour Thursday, McGregor met up with and showed some real love to a rather famous Toronto native. Based on that exchange, it seems Drake and McGregor are pretty good friends. Maybe he’ll get a discount on the extremely pricey ringside seats.

Mir: "I wanted to leave the mistake in Assen behind"
Joan Mir, P1: "This victory means a great deal! I wanted to leave the mistake in Assen behind and prove I could win: and I wanted to win here. It was a long and difficult race, I immediately tried to make a break with a small group. I had a good pace and in the end our strategy worked perfectly. I would never have imagined getting to the Championship’s break with this margin of an advantage, but there are still many races. Now, a week of vacation, then I'll get back to training." Source link

Malcolm Butler Signs Patriots’ First-Round Tender, Now Can Be Traded
Share this: Cornerback Malcolm Butler officially is under contract with the New England Patriots. Butler signed the first-round tender given to him by the Patriots on Tuesday. That means he won’t be signed to a restricted free-agent offer sheet by another team. The Patriots now can discuss Butler in trades. Prior to Butler signing, discussing him in trades was against NFL rules. The New Orleans Saints hosted Butler on a free-agent visit last month. If Butler isn’t traded, he will play in 2017 on a one-year $3.91 million deal unless he and the Patriots agree to a long-term contract.
