America’s biggest annual celebration and football have long been intertwined before the NFL was established and the fourth Thursday in November is arguably the biggest football day of the calendar year for casual fans. On Thanksgiving Day, football transcends the sport and sitting around the TV to watch the NFL is every bit as a family tradition as carving the turkey, which explains why bar the Super Bowl no other NFL games draws the kind of viewership than those scheduled on Thanksgiving....

After posting that blog, to my shock, I got bombarded with responses from the Biggest Loser Fan Club, informing me the show is inspirational! Inspirational? Really?

Gayle’s response to a question about cricket was to ask the reporter out. He said: “Your eyes are beautiful, hopefully, we can win this game and then we can have a drink after as well.

Instead, they were just five hopeful applicants among thousands of 18- to 24-year-olds responding to the ITV network’s ad to create the perfect pop band for a program called “Popstars....

Brad Keselowski had not won at the Magic Mile in Loudon, N.H., since 2014, but he entered Sunday’s race with a pair of wins in 2020 and plenty of speed in his No. 2 Team Penske Ford Mustang.

I thought that the evenhandedness exhibited true journalistic integrity. In particular, the last paragraph of Kenneth L. Woodward’s piece on the spiritual meaning of Jerusalem to Christians, Jews and Muslims was superbly written and emphasized that Jerusalem must remain accessible to all faiths. Let us hope that this will come to pass and that compromises will be made on both sides for a lasting peace; we cannot afford the alternative....

Kenley Jansen was the staple of the Dodgers’ bullpen for years, and he was generally the guy Dave Roberts could turn the ball over to in the ninth inning. Since Jansen has moved on to the Braves, the Dodgers have found the closing role to be a bit of a void. They acquired Craig Kimbrel for A.J. Pollock before the season, hoping he would recapture prime form, but Kimbrel didn’t notch a one-run save until August, blew five saves in the regular season, and did not make the roster for the Division Series against the Padres....
