(via r/hockey) What's closer to certain, though, is that the Ryan Kesler tumbleweed meme has some competition. The Jeff Petry Long Jump, maybe?

Jeff Teague is catching the NBA sleeping. “When I saw how many different speeds he had — he’s just so calm, and then at another second, he’ll be right by you,” Terran Petteway said. “I didn’t think he was that electric.” MORE: NBA awards predictions: Disagreement at MVP You’ll have to forgive Petteway, the Hawks’ undrafted rookie who caught his first up-close look at his new teammate during September workouts with the team....

At the time of his death, which the city’s medical examiner ruled a suicide by hanging, Epstein was facing federal sex-trafficking charges. He had been accused of bringing girls as young as 14 into his homes and sexually abusing them.

His third PED-related suspension — two years to life — has destroyed what little trust there was in the Mets right-hander.

Major League Baseball has gone through its appeals process for a third time with the player; suspensions aren’t announced until after that happens. The next step, it seems, would be a court battle....

Arsenal 6/1 to win Europa League If they do not, the team cannot have maximum success, since the figurative Indians will not fight for the Chiefs. A team made up of twenty stars will still not play good football if they do not combine well with each other, both on the pitch and in private. The soft factors – a player’s wellbeing, his family’s happiness – all have a decisive impact on his performance; already at scouting level, Arsenal were attaching great importance to it, as if they were shooting an expensive Hollywood film that can only captivate an audience if all roles are cast fittingly....

The climate crisis has fueled this summer’s fires in California and across the American West. It has fueled the unprecedented hurricanes in the Southeast, the flooding in the Midwest, and the heat waves in the Arctic.

Michael Jackson, who passed away in 2009, was accused of child molestation in 1993, though never charged. In 2005, he was acquitted of seven counts of child molestation following a high-profile trial. The King of Pop, who had always maintained his innocence, was also posthumously accused of molestation by Wade Robson. In a newly unveiled trailer for her upcoming two-part documentary, Janet, “Rhythm Nation” singer Janet Jackson has addressed the allegations, admitting that she felt as though she was deemed to be “guilty by association” over the years....

Man City furious over Alves snub The former Sunderland loanee has struggled for game time at Old Trafford since his breakthrough season under David Moyes.

Hajime Moriyasu’s side have been one of the success stories so far in Qatar after they edged out Spain and Germany to finish as group winners.
