Heading into the matchup, Jenkins said Pryor wasn’t a significant matchup because he is just “another receiver.” The Browns wideout responded to that quote on Twitter by saying “talk is talk,” and hoped to let his play do the talking instead. MORE: The latest NFL playoff picture And although Cleveland lost, Pryor played well, finishing with 131 yards on six receptions. Or to put it in other terms, he finished with the second-most receiving yards on Sunday....

We saw World Cup players move like Netherlands forward Cody Gakpo and Poland defender Jakub Kiwior, and a Champions League standout like Mykhailo Mudryk. Young promising players were also snapped up midseason before they were bid up during the offseason. Everton’s Anthony Gordon, Monaco centre-back Benoit Badiashile and PSV winger Noni Madueke are all 21 or younger and both drew big transfers. More than any one player, there is one team that proved the biggest story of the 2023 winter window: Chelsea and its new ownership group were not afraid to push the financial fair play rules to their limit and take advantage of loopholes to stockpile some of the most coveted talents....

On Tuesday Japanese manufacturer Shachihata launched a UV stamp housed in a yellow cylinder not much larger than a tube of lipstick. The pad’s colorless ink can be stamped on the hand of a chikan, or sexual harasser, then revealed later under ultraviolet light. Each tube costs 2500 yen, or about $23.50, and the initial run of 500 units sold out within an hour, according to Shachihata. Sexual harassment and assault is an ongoing problem on Japanese subways, where as much of 70 percent of young women say they’ve been fondled....

Japanese eggplants are usually straight, unlike their curved Italian cousins. They have thin skin and are easy to slice, so be careful not to cut yourself.

Monaco were beaten 3-2 on Friday after Nabil Fekir scored a dramatic stoppage-time winner as hosts Lyon triumphed in a pulsating encounter. Fekir struck in the fifth minute of added time with a fine free-kick after Monaco had twice equalised via Adama Traore and Rony Lopes, who cancelled out goals from the former and Mariano Diaz. While disappointed with the result, head coach Jardim was encouraged by the performances of his young Monaco players at Parc OL....

He was at it again on Monday in Chicago, where he was talking about, among other things, the importance of unpleasant practices. Here's some good ones from earlier in the season. This is obviously an incomplete list: On linemate Dainius Zubrus: “I remember him when we played in Washington. I got traded from Pittsburgh and had 120 points. They put him on the line and I had 70. So it was a 50 percent drop!...

The Ozark star joked that his return to SNL came 15 years after his first “so you know I made a hell of an impression.” And he also told the story of how a chimpanzee called Mikey tried to kill him at the end of that show.

After a poor front nine Sunday, Day shot a 3-under 33 on the inward nine to finish the tournament at 15 under and earn his second wire-to-wire win of the season.

Isbell, a four-time Grammy winner known for his work with the band The 400 Unit, told host Stephanie Ruhle that while he is all for freedom, “if you’re dead, you don’t have any freedoms at all.” “It’s probably important to stay alive before you start questioning your liberty,” he said. “It’s life, and then it’s liberty, and then it’s pursuit of happiness. Those are in order of priority.” Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced the cancellation of concerts throughout 2020 and much of 2021, Isbell has not been able to play in-person shows, and he worries that being able to might not last very long if the music industry is not careful....

“Speak for Yourself” comes on the heels of a bittersweet moment for 49-year old Whitlock. ESPN finally launched “The Undefeated,” last week. ESPN boss John Skipper recruited Whitlock to be editor-in-chief of the so-called “Black Grantland” back in 2013. But the longtime columnist for ESPN, Fox and the Kansas City Star floundered as a manager.

Saturday alone saw Cincinnati’s Mick Cronin get into it with an official during the Bearcats’ game at UConn, though official Ted Valentine did not help matters when he got into Cronin’s face. Kentucky’s John Calipari resorted to everything he could, including untucking his shirt and yelling at his team and officials before getting two technicals that got him tossed from a loss at South Carolina. Perhaps most memorable was Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim storming the court last week to protest a charge call that went against the Orange in their game at Duke....

The former Duke University basketball player, known for criticizing the NCAA, believes it’s only a matter of time college athletes will be paid following the U.S. Supreme Court’s unanimous Monday ruling that the NCAA cannot restrict education-related benefits. “The truth is, whether people want to admit it or not, when the players get paid now nobody’s going to turn away from it now either. It’s going to continue to thrive and all that,” said Bilas....

Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) took a giant step towards retaining their Super League title after close rivals suffered defeats on Match Day 14 of the 2017 season.

The 2017 Super League champions Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) ended their campaign with only a draw after they were held to a 0-0 by Kedah in Saturday’s final round of the season. In a match that was lacking in high intensity, at times it looked like both teams were just going through the motions, with half an eye on the cup final on October 4. That said, JDT had the upper hand for most parts of the match and were still able to fashioned good goal-scoring chances, particularly in the second half....

The actor, as one can imagine of a Hollywood star of his calibre, is a busy man, and professionally he’s as in demand as he was in his Jurassic Park heyday, so he was “touched” his family could be involved in the documentary series.

According to Bob Pockrass of Fox Sports, Gordon will serve as “No. 2 in charge” under Ricky Hendrick, the namesake of the company. Gordon will focus on competition and marketing in his new role.
