In his first two starts, Jimmy Garoppolo has pulled off what a 49ers quarterback hadn’t managed in 13 years. Garoppolo has thrown for 627 yards in wins over the Bears and Texans, the most in back-to-back games in the same season since Tim Ratty (716 yards) in October 2004. Rattay threw for 299 yards in a 24-14 loss to the Rams and added 417 in a 31-28 win over the Cardinals. If his first two starts are a harbinger of yards to come, Garoppolo figures to break an extended drought in 2018... Читать дальше...

With four worthy outfielders for just three regular spots, it’s no surprise to hear that the Cincinnati Reds are perusing the trade market to see if they can open up some space. Each of Adam Duvall and Scott Schebler bashed over 30 dingers in 2017, but on-base machine Jesse Winker impressed in his debut season in the bigs last year, and according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal, the Reds are looking for ways to get the young Winker more everyday playing time.

Craig Burley compares Manchester United to a small club playing a giant in the FA Cup in their loss to Manchester City. Manchester United are reportedly tracking Lazio's Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, with his family already having ties to the Premier League club. Few would be aware that his younger brother joined United more than three years ago. Vanja Milinkovic-Savic's spell at Old Trafford never really got off the ground, though -- he was loaned back to his home club, Vojvodina, immediately after completing the transfer in May 2014...

Instead of playing golf, the participants huddled under an outdoor tent. At one table, Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre held court. Torre, who is MLB’s chief baseball officer, sat with Staub, a few retired sports reporters, and league executives swapping old stories... Читать дальше...

A North Korean defector spoke out about the horrors she experienced under the regime, tearfully explaining she was forced to have an abortion when she was three months pregnant.

It’s evident the liberal mainstream media is out of control in America today. Only 12% of Republicans trust the liberal media today in America. The best evidence of liberal media bias today is seen in the hostility of the White House Press Corps. Day after day White House spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders is abused and […]

Every December since 1901, executives, owners, general managers, scouts, hot dog vendors, and job seekers from Major League Baseball and Minor League Baseball’s collective 190 teams convene for four days for the sport’s Winter Meetings.

But Antonio Conte kept faith with Bakayoko this evening in the must-win game against David Wagner’s side, and the 23-year-old soon repaid his faith. After 23 minutes... Читать дальше...
