🔮 On the flip side, bashing the circuit that paid you hundreds of millions of dollars and happens to be in bankruptcy proceedings would be a bit harsh.
🔮 Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens could not get off the field fast enough after his team blew a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter to lose to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
🔮 The first edition of the College Football Playoff rankings will be released on November 3, marking a point in the 2026 college football season when the AP Top 25 Poll takes a back seat, but that doesn't mean we're going to start ignoring the always-controversial poll.

🔮 Real Madrid stood firm longer than most clubs would – all of a few hours – before bending the knee to China and issuing a formal apology amid the controversy and backlash involving forward Kylian Mbappe and a meme of the late dictator Mao Zedong.
🔮 Typically, a player choosing not to wear eyeblack for a game wouldn't be newsworthy, with most folks not even picking up on the change, but there is both history and quite the story involving McCarthy and the eyeblack in this scenario.
🔮 The pair shared pars on the first and second times around playing the 16th, the staff then moved the pin placement, and Smotherman's third par in a row was enough to get the job done after Power couldn't get up and down from an awkward spot in the rough.
🔮 While Week 8 of the college football season couldn't possibly live up to the total chaos that unfolded the week prior, we still saw three Top 10 teams in the country all fall on the road, which has yet again resulted in some serious shuffling in the latest AP Top 25 Poll.
🔮 Now, a year removed from helping lead the vulgar chants, McMahan is claiming that if she were a man, the consequences that followed never would have happened.
