Lawrence, who opted to forego his senior year, has long been projected to be the top pick of this month’s NFL Draft. The Jaguars have that No. 1 pick, and it’s expected that new coach Urban Meyer will take Lawrence to build his offense around. Nothing is set in stone until the draft picks are announced that first night, but Lawrence may have let it slip with his tweet thanking Jaguars fans, indicating he’ll reciprocate donations to Jacksonville charities....

Parker and Stone, before THQ acquired the publishing rights to the game, approached Obsidian in the hopes that they would develop this RPG set in the South Park world. THQ’s Danny Bilson estimates that this relationship had been going on for about a year before THQ was even brought into the mix. According to Bilson Parker and Stone “were looking for a publisher to get it involved and pick it up and drive it the rest of the way,” and that’s when THQ got involved....

Tottenham made a slow start to their campaign and after suffering heavy defeats against both Manchester clubs (0-3 at Old Trafford and 1-5 at White Hart Lane against City), the club went on an 11-match unbeaten run that ended last week against Stoke City.

Ferguson said in The People: “They look confident and dangerous and I have been very impressed with them....

The alleged incident took place during Spurs’ 2-1 win away to Sheffield United in the FA Women’s Championship, the division below the elite Women’s Super League. But a result that saw the visitors climb to second place in the table was overshadowed by defender Hector’s post-match allegation. Hector, who did not name the player in question, tweeted: “Such a shame that racism seems to be rising up again in football – I received some monkey noises today from an opposition player....

It was in that unforgiving state of mind that McClary joined a 6:00 p.m. (Iraqi time) meeting of the 3-7 staff to plan the night’s missions. “The situation around us is not great,” Col. Jack Kammerer, commander of the 3-7, told his officers, as they studied a map unfurled on the hood of a Humvee and illuminated by red light. So-called irregular fedayeen forces–that include Iraqi militia members employing guerrilla-style tactics–were proving more of a menace to U....

Josh Gordon, WR and Jordan Cameron, TE, Browns . These talented young players are putting the Browns on the map, and with Richardson gone to Indianapolis, they are Cleveland’s two remaining most valuable commodities. Gordon has seemed to be on the block since he first played in Week 3, and he keeps playing very well (5 catches, 132 yards, TD Sunday at Kansas City). Gordon has delivered with three quarterbacks, and is a needed boon for the true franchise QB the Browns will look to land in the 2014 draft....

But Paul surely won’t mind more convenient accessibility to his favorite football team and its games. Paul, just like his buddy LeBron James, is a huge Cowboys fan.

Earlier this week, the 22-year-old took to TikTok to recount the circumstances surrounding a mortifying mistake he’d made on the job the day before. Fisher’s candor clearly struck a chord with others on the platform. So far, his confession has more than 221,000 views. In excruciating detail, Fisher recounted how he’d been dispatched to a home in the Melbourne suburb of Cranbourne West to remove some paving stones from the owner’s front yard....

McCollum scored a game-high 37 points on 17-of-29 shooting, including multiple clutch shots down the stretch that helped close the door on Denver. Whenever it appeared the Nuggets were about to pull away in the first half, McCollum scored a timely bucket. Lillard went only 3-of-17 from the field, but he did contribute in other ways with 10 rebounds, eight assists and three steals. GAME 7: Three takeaways from Trail Blazers’ win over Nuggets...

John Kerry had his first comeback after the long, bleak winter last year, when everyone prematurely pronounced his candidacy dead on arrival soon after he formally kicked off his race in September. Today, to listen to Kerry’s aides, the moment has come again. After the flap over Kerry’s Vietnam record, after all the examples of flip-floppery, after the $60 million of mostly negative ads run by the Bush campaign, Kerry holds a slight lead over George Bush in some polls....

The two players in this clip -- Travis Leslie and Alexis Ajinca -- were never of great consequence in the NBA. (Unless, of course, you're a Bobcats fan who saw your team take Ajinca just three picks after Roy Hibbert and also before Serge Ibaka, DeAndre Jordan, Omer Asik. Then, it probably just stings to hear his name.) Leslie, a second-round pick of the Clippers, bounced around the D-League, even winning the NBDL's All-Star MVP, before winding up in France....

That was a bit of a surprise. Not that the Rangers wanted Seager, but that Seager — who had only known teams competing for World Series titles every year — wanted to join a team that hadn’t been a serious playoff competitor in about half a decade and looked to be a few years and many, many millions of dollars away from getting back to that level. MORE: Ranking the top 89 MLB free agents for 2023...
