With the Dolphins having a horrible time protecting quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and the Ravens haven laid the groundwork for the trade when they brought Eugene Monroe on board from the Jacksonville Jaguars, the move makes sense. TUCKER: McKinnie doesn’t give good effort | Week 7 images The Jaguars received fourth- and fifth-round picks in 2014 in exchange for Monroe. It is not clear yet what the Dolphins gave up to get McKinnie....
This franchise under this head coach should not face these kind of problems as often as they do — and that’s not just referring to Monday’s firing of Marc Trestman, who oversaw one of the most underachieving units in the NFL so far. MORE: Best images from Week 5 For the nine years John Harbaugh and Joe Flacco have been together, there has been lots of change in the faces Flacco sees and the voices he hears....
Even Harbaugh knows it, which is good. He’s not deluded by the talk among desperate Ravens fans about being three plays away from being 3-0 instead of 0-3. And while he’s deflected some predictions of them reaching the Super Bowl, that kind of talk isn’t even on his radar now.

The Ravens coach invoked Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in a speech about practice time for officials, saying referees and the NFL need to discuss getting them more practice time.

“Yeah there have been a lot of stop-starts. I think a lot of that’s down to never having a consistent role in a side. I am mainly a top-order batsman who bowls a little bit, and I may have been viewed as a middle-order batsman, finishing batsman, and someone who bowls a bit. So that maybe part of the reason,” he said. Praises the IPL “IPL is free-flowing cricket. It’s a lot of fun, great crowds, it’s a great experience as a cricketer....
Lest the subtlety of that sentiment is lost on you, Steigerwald went on: “[I]t’s fun to see The Times squirm under the national klieg lights.” He then proceeded to dust off a petty, quarter-century-old beef with a journalist who at the time was writing for The Sun, a daily paper in Baltimore, but is now with the Times. He seemed to be saying that said writer’s employment at the Times is somehow a sign of the paper’s diminished moral character....
Radar, the new magazine born from the brain of Maer Roshan, is, for all intents and purposes, a zine. It’s a really nice one–beautiful, actually, with a great graphic sensibility and gorgeous coloring. It’s printed on glossy paper, with lots of Roshan’s talented and smart friends helping out. But it’s still a zine, an offering of whatever it is that Roshan is interested in at the moment. He admits as much in his editor’s letter....
“Our short term goal is to get to 50-50, then we’ll take our chances,” he said. “We need to go 26-11. We’ve done that before standing on our heads.” Those 11 losses ticked away, when Tampa Bay fell to 41-51 with a 6-0 loss to the Royals on July 7, it appeared that the season was lost. By July 11, the Rays, who had fought admirably to make even as much progress as they did, slipped back to double-digit games out of first place in the American League East, at 42-53....
The 40-year-old Cash had one year remaining on a five-year, $5 million deal he signed when he replaced Joe Maddon after the 2014 season. Financial terms were not disclosed. Both Cash, who had no previous managerial experience when he was hired, and management said it was an easy decision to continue their relationship after a bounce-back season. “Kevin has a long list of positives. … It’s been a joy to see him blossom,” general manager Erik Neander said Tuesday....
New Delhi, Nov 3 (PTI) India’s ODI specialist Ambati Rayudu Saturday announced his retirement from first-class cricket to focus on one dayers and T20s.

What can the Anzu smart glasses actually do? Well, the “smart” label is applied a bit liberally; these are better described as audio glasses. They come with interchangeable blue light filtering lenses for indoor wearing and sunglass lenses for outdoor use, and speakers in each stem for personal audio listening. They can be used for calls with an integrated microphone and feature low latency Bluetooth audio for gaming. These Anzu smart glasses might not project images through their lenses, but they can provide plenty of utility through device convergence....

Over the years, Lois Lane has subtly evolved in the Superman movie universe, into something more. Certainly, Margot Kidder’s portrayal of the character wasn’t just a damsel in distress. In fact, there’s an argument there that Lois had more of a role in the earlier Superman films than she’s had recently. It’s possible that a recasting and a rebooting of the Superman franchise could mean that the character will get more screen time and do a bit more....
Look at the first three weeks of the season as our preseason adjustment. We’ve got it right this time — really, we do. 1. SEC Be honest with yourself and look across the sport’s landscape, and try to deny that as many as eight SEC teams (Auburn, Alabama, Texas A&M, LSU, South Carolina, Georgia, Ole Miss, Missouri) are among the top 16 in the nation. The conference is so good and so deep this fall — better maybe than it has been in all the BCS era — it can cannibalize itself throughout the regular season and still get a spot in the College Football Playoff....

While Biden’s address boasted of accomplishments made during his first 100 days in office and proclaimed that “America is on the move again,” Scott said that the Biden administration merely inherited the accomplishments of former President Donald Trump, who he praised for putting COVID-19 “on the run.” Scott, the only Black Republican in the Senate, also accused Democrats of trying “to use our painful past to dishonestly shut down debates in the present” while stating that “America is not a racist country....
2004: Kansas City Chiefs 31, Oakland Raiders 30 Lawrence Tynes missed two field goals in the contest but kicked a 38-yarder with 22 seconds left on the clock to put Kansas City on top. 2010: Arizona Cardinals 27, Dallas Cowboys 26 Arizona took an early lead thanks to two John Kitna pick-sixes, but Dallas stormed back to take the lead with 1:41 remaining. Arizona, however, kicked a field goal with time winding down to secure a one-point victory....
