Cristiano Ronaldo: The Manchester United star’s baggage is no longer worth it

admin

The problem that anyone who signs Cristiano Ronaldo has is that, no matter how big the club is, it immediately becomes Ronaldo’s club. Wednesday should have been around Manchester UnitedA very impressive performance in the 2-0 win over Spurs, his best under Erik ten Hag and arguably the most encouraging performance since those counter-attacks in the early days under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The New Orleans Saints must face that their plan backfires

admin

Somewhere in between the two lists thrown by Andy Dalton Thursday night, was anyone else checking back the Saints’ Capital 2023 draft, only to remember (perhaps too loudly) that his first-round pick would go to the undefeated Eagles? New Orleans, now 2-5 after Thursday’s 42-34 loss to the Cardinals, captivated us this off season with the idea of ​​pretending Sean Payton’s loss wasn’t a funeral of some sort. They handed the main training gig to Dennis Allen, their qualified defensive coordinator. They traded in the first round in a draft…

How the Phillies fixed their poor defense to make the MLB playoffs

admin

San Diego – IN Phyllis I heard jokes at the beginning of the year. They read the criticisms, watched replays, and researched the stats. But they didn’t need any of that to confirm what they already knew: their inner defense was horrific. Still not perfect. (They got a 9th inning reminder of that in the first game) But the jokes don’t really apply any longer in the same way.

Dealer Christian McCaffrey: A perfect fit for what the 49ers do so well

admin

There was only one fictional scenario (before Thursday night, anyway) where the idea of ​​a hardcore football exchange could have sparked the thought of re-trading before the deadline. In our wildest imaginations, if a team can take out Christian McCaffrey to sell the fiery leopards and put them in the capable arms of the best-designed and most dangerous running game on the planet (the 49ers), we’ll let our jaws hit the ground running. Most of the football world woke up on Friday – those who haven’t made it to the…
