Just after 9:30 Tuesday morning, the future Hall of Famer posted to Instagram, informing the world of his decision to step away from the game after 22 seasons and seven Super Bowl wins, the most by any player in NFL history. “This is difficult for me to write, but here it goes: I am not going to make that competitive commitment anymore,” Brady said in his post. “I have loved my NFL career, and now it is time to focus my time and energy on other things that require my attention....

The Patriots took their first loss of the season and their first-ever shutout at Gillette Stadium, 16-0. MORE: Watch angry Belichick trash his tablet A 3-1 mark in the first four games of the season for the Patriots — with backup Jimmy Garoppolo hurt in the second game, no less — would have been celebrated back when the NFL’s four-game suspension of Tom Brady was finally upheld and certain. But after Sunday’s debacle, coach Bill Belichick was in a grumbly mood, even by his standards....

On Monday, the 42-year-old liked an Instagram post from the NFL announcing Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles Chargers had officially parted ways. Brady’s reaction to the post could have simply been a nod to a fellow veteran quarterback, who had just announced he will enter free agency next month after spending 16 years with the Chargers. However, with the NFL being the NFL, Brady’s interaction immediately got people talking....

The eight-time major winner, 65, missed the cut at the Old Course but was afforded a huge ovation as he walked down the 18th fairway with his son caddying for him.

The 2018 film starring Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft is a reboot of the 2000’s Tomb Raider film franchise featuring Angelina Jolie, more based on the 2013 video game that revived the long-running franchise. The game features an explosive blend of action, globe-trotting, and exploration, so it is fitting that Wheatley would turn to another creative, exploration-themed game as a tool for prototyping sets: Minecraft.

When it comes to powerful groups in NXT, D’Angelo’s are definitely up on the list. After joining forces with the family of Legado Del Fantasma, the family’s influence has increased. However, The D’Angelo family also experienced quite a rough weekend. Not only because The Don was rumored to have suffered an injury, but also because one of his partners, Troy “Two Dimes” Donovan, was released following a rules violation. However, the released talent still appeared tonight as the show was taped before the announcement....

“We did our research and who this person is beyond what the perception of him,” GM Don Waddell said on a call with reporters after the deal was announced. “There’s no doubt that he has made mistakes. We acknowledge that and, more importantly, he recognizes that he’s made mistakes and he knows he’s got to continue to work and grow as a person.” The words by Waddell, who also mentioned that he talked to DeAngelo’s teammates — assuming that includes ex-Rangers Brady Skjei and Jesper Fast, who are now with Carolina — and coaches, sound eerily similar to Jeff Gorton’s words last February....

The main points of clarificatiion: Dungy would have Sam on his roster, and doesn’t think his sexual orientation would be a distraction. His reasoning, then, in initially calling Sam a distraction in so many words was the fact Sam was going to have his own reality television show, and not anything to do with Sam’s football skills or if Dungy, as a religious coach who doesn’t believe in homosexuality, could handle leading Sam....

Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins proclaimed Wednesday as a day to remember the Hall of Famer who spent his entire career with the Padres. Gwynn had 3,141 hits in 20 seasons and served as head baseball coach at San Diego State. He died of oral cancer at age 54 in June. Atkins’ proclamation praises Gwynn for formidable skills on the field and an exuberant personality. The San Diego Democrat became California’s fourth governor in four days while Gov....

Notably, however, not everything has been revealed yet. It still a few months from release, and its marketing strategy still has a few things up in store for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2. One of those may just be crossplay for the game, as a recent interview indicates is a possibility.

After spending 17 seasons with the San Antonio Spurs and one with the Charlotte Hornets, Parker said it was the right time for him to walk away. “A lot of different stuff ultimately led me to this decision,” Parker told The Undefeated. “But, at the end of the day, I was like, if I can’t be Tony Parker anymore and I can’t play for a championship, I don’t want to play basketball anymore....

Harris was the centerpiece of a blockbuster deal the Philadelphia 76ers made early Wednesday morning to bolster their chances at making a run at a championship. The 26-year-old forward was having a breakout season with the Los Angeles Clippers before coming to his fifth team in eight seasons. He joins All-Stars Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, along with Jimmy Butler and JJ Redick, to form perhaps the best starting lineup in the Eastern Conference....

Because the execution was the first of its kind, Kemmler’s electric chair death was a public spectacle. But it didn’t go as planned. Kemmler’s execution was incredibly gory, with reports stating Kemmler’s end was bloody, “firey,” and that his skin was entirely charred, according to Britticana. A New York Times reporter covered the event for the publication and wrote “the witnesses were so horrified by the ghastly sight that they could not take their eyes off it....

While it isn’t the biggest month the service has ever seen, PlayStation still provided PS Plus subscribers with some solid games this month, and it would be a shame to miss them. The February 2022 PS Plus games are UFC 4, Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep, and Planet Coaster. The announcement did initially face some backlash for the lineup, but it’s a decent spread of genres. RELATED: PlayStation 3 Games Now Visible in the PlayStation 5 Store...
