The Buccaneers won Super Bowl 55, and they did it handily, downing the Chiefs 31-9. While some Americans can deny the victory all the want, the proof and truth is there for all to see, and Brady took a few minutes to throw some high-level political humor while the Buccaneers visited the White House on Tuesday. “But we found our rhythm, we got on a roll. Not a lot of people think that we could have won,” Brady said, before delivering the zinger....

Tampa Bay was already up by 16 points with under five minutes remaining. Outside of Gronkowski, each of the team’s high-profile offensive players had put up strong numbers. Brady ensured his oldest friend on the roster would get camera time before the contest concluded. The palate-cleansing victory, which came after a 38-3 loss to the Saints, demonstrated how Brady can keep his array of pass catchers happy after the group was bolstered further by the signing of Antonio Brown a couple of weeks ago....

With Carr suddenly sitting in favor of a QB who played for McDaniels in New England, that should only heat up the speculation that McDaniels is eyeing a reunion with another former Patriot — Tom Brady. Brady will be a free agent after the 2022 season and is expected to explore playing for a new team in 2023 instead of retiring as a Buccaneer. Returning to New England or going to hometown San Francisco has been the popular speculation, but Las Vegas is a hotter spot now....

Tom Brady and Matt Ryan are trying to cap off NFL MVP-caliber seasons by realizing the ultimate playoff goal in Houston next Sunday. Never before have two QBs who rated greater than 110.0 in passing efficiency faced off in the Super Bowl. Ryan, in his career year, posted 117.1 in 2016. He was better in his two playoff games so far in ‘17, ripping the Seahawks for 125.7 and then waxing the Packers for 139....

Tom Crean, currently working as a studio and game analyst for ESPN, will be interested in the position, a source told Sporting News.

He recruited first-round NBA Draft picks Victor Oladipo, Cody Zeller, OG Anunoby and Noah Vonleh....

One of the main things that became immediately clear after speaking to Storm for just a few minutes is that she is completely dumbstruck and in awe of the achievements in an extremely humbling way. There is no question that Toni Storm has a huge future ahead of her in professional wrestling, anyone that has seen her in-ring ability at the age of 23 can comfortably predict big things. For example, many would consider the NXT UK Women’s Title to be just the first of many titles in a long and illustrious career....

The Grizzlies guard is a two-time member of the NBA’s All-Defense first team, and in case any Warriors players forgot that, he was more than happy to remind them during Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinals series.

“My very first thought is it will be Washington the whole game,” Simms told The Associated Press on Monday. Simms will work the Thursday night package the network acquired this season and will have Giants-Redskins on Sept. 25. He isn’t taking sides in the debate over whether Washington’s nickname is offensive or racist. But he says he is sensitive to the complaints about the name, and his instincts now are to not use Redskins in his announcing....

Almost a year after his father’s death, Gwynn Jr. had a special Father’s Day 2015. Let’s set up the scene. We’re in the bottom of the 10th and it’s a scoreless game between his Syracuse Chiefs and the Buffalo Bisons. There’s one out and a runner on second. Do your thing, Tony.

It came out yesterday that due to Vicarious Visions’ merger with Activision Blizzard, further remasters of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater franchise were canceled. Tony Hawk had confirmed on stream that a remaster of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 was up next, but Activision-Blizzard completed a deal that saw it absorb Vicarious Visions, causing all other projects to be scrapped.

With the likes of Adam Cole, CM Punk and Bryan Danielson showing up in his company, you can’t dispute Tony Khan’s claims of calling his company the hottest currently. The AEW President spoke to the Associated Press and stated that with his promotion’s success, WWE and other companies “are paying attention.” Tony Khan has booked loaded cards for AEW Dynamite and Rampage Grand Slam special episodes AEW and Tony Khan are preparing for the biggest week in the company’s weekly programming history as Dynamite and Rampage’s Grand Slam editions are absolutely loaded....

While The Young Bucks are two-time All Elite Wrestling Tag Team Champions, the duo is also known to be Executive Vice-Presidents. Because of this, the Jackson brothers have seemingly had more pull backstage, but this might just be subject to change. During the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer shared inside information pertaining to the current situation with Nick and Matt Jackson’s contracts. Fightful notably reported on the negotiations between the Young Bucks and All Elite Wrestling earlier, but at the time there were seemingly far fewer details than Dave Meltzer has since unearthed....

“I really question the sincerity of somebody like Kaepernick,” La Russa said on Sports Illustrated Now . “I remember when he was on top, I never heard about him talk about anything but himself. Now all of a sudden he’s struggling for attention, and he makes this big pitch, I don’t buy it.” Kaepernick has done his best to respond to these criticisms by announcing he’ll be donating $1 million to charities that aid communities....

The outlet reports that no decision has been made yet on whether Romo will be in uniform Sunday in Pittsburgh, but cited sources saying Romo believes he is ready to return from the injury and is “capable of taking NFL hits....

Stewart, a three-time champion, was 17th in the final Sprint Cup Series practice Saturday at Bristol Motor Speedway. That's at least an improvement for Stewart, whose comeback from a broken leg has been thwarted by on-track struggles. His season includes a 16th-place finish at Phoenix and a 33rd-place finish at Las Vegas.

OK, Keats said it better. But to wine-lovers and many scientists, this ode to risk-reduction sounds sweet indeed, especially by comparison with the 1990 guidelines, which stated flatly that alcohol “has no net health benefit” and “is not recommended.” “They’re finally acknowledging that there’s a contribution wine can make to a healthy lifestyle,” says Julie Williams, cofounder of Women for WineSense, an advocacy group. After two centuries of living in combat with demon rum, Americans are suddenly being urged to curl up with a nice pinot noir; it’ll make us feel better....

The game tries to help players by using a color-coded system: When a tile turns green the letter is in the word, yellow means it’s in the wrong place, and if it’s grey then it’s not in the word at all. While this can be useful it doesn’t always make it obvious what the word could be, especially if certain letters repeat themselves in a word or there are several options for a final letter....

The daily brainteaser tasks its gamers with figuring out the 5-letter word with only a color-based system to help them, which turns letters grey when it is not in the word, yellow when it is in the right place, and green when it is correct. But sometimes that’s not enough, so to help users get the correct word of the day Newsweek has put together several hints that may prove useful, and the answer itself is also provided at the end of the article....

As is customary, Wordle users have just six attempts, or less, to solve the puzzle. They have the help of a color-coded system, in which letters turn gray when they are not in the word, yellow when they are in it but in the wrong place, and green when everything is correct. Despite these handy color signals, sometimes those clues aren’t enough to help you figure out the word of the day....

Michael Wacha (@ Marlins) will get some looks because of his favorable matchup, but after being demoted to the bullpen, he’s a major risk – both in terms of performance and pitch count. Jason Vargas (@ Yankees) has a decent matchup on paper and has been pitching great lately (1.85 ERA in his past seven outings), but he still feels like a GPP-only play. German Marquez (vs. Cubs) and Yu Darvish (@ Rockies) both have dominating stuff, but they also have shown they have low floors, particularly in Colorado....
