A cheese rolling festival was held in Canada last weekend. The objective of the race is simple. Once the cheese is rolled from the top of the hill, the racers begin to run down and try to cross the finishing line first. It might sound simple, but in reality it is anything but. Several runners get injured, often seriously, which has resulted in the sport being officially cancelled in England....

In what was arguably their best performance of the season, Ilkay Gundogan, Phil Foden, and Kevin De Bruyne struck apiece in the first half as the Blues lost for the fourth time in the last six games. Callum Hudson-Odoi came off the bench and struck in stoppage time to reduce the deficit, but it was nothing more than just a consolation strike as further pressure mounts on manager Frank Lampard....

The Blues got off to a flying start when they opened the scoring as early as the 4th minute through Pedro, who started ahead of Willian on the day. Chelsea were accused of starting games poorly in recent weeks, but they responded handsomely by scoring their fastest goal of the season and also their first within the opening 20 minutes since the win over Arsenal back in August. Despite enjoying an early lead, the hosts were unable to grab the game by the scruff of its neck and struggled to break down the opposition, who resorted to sitting behind the ball and making it difficult for their counterparts as the game petered out to the interval....

De Gea, though, has often been criticized for his lack of ability to play with the ball at his feet....

They have been in search of a striker and potential defensive options, as Frank Lampard aims to improve his side’s poor record at the back this season....

The 2020/21 champions failed to defend their title last season, as they were knocked out by eventual winners Real Madrid in the quarterfinals. The Blues have generally performed well in the Champions League group stages and the only time they failed to progress to the knockout stages was in 2012/13. They were one of 32 teams in the pots at the Champions League group stage draw in Istanbul, Turkey on August 25 and Thomas Tuchel’s side now know their opponents with their adventure beginning with an opening group match on September 6/7....

This will consist of players which will not pop up in your conversations with your fellow football freaks....

The Chargers were facing a fourth-and-2 on their own 46-yard line with 1:13 left in the game and the Browns out of timeouts. Many assumed that Los Angeles would put the ball away and forced Cleveland and Jacoby Brissett to drive into range for a potential game-winning field goal. Staley had other ideas. Staley, who is known as one of the most aggressive coaches in the NFL, opted to go for it....

During TNT’s postgame show on Thursday night, studio host Ernie Johnson threw over to Barkley in what was meant to be a bit of cross-promotion for the Turner family.

Their support for DeSantis, a Republican, comes just two weeks before voters will pick between the two candidates in the Sunshine State’s hotly contested gubernatorial race. DeSantis has risen to prominence in the GOP, receiving support from Republicans who rallied behind his brand of at-times brash conservative politics. However, his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and support for controversial policies such as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill has drawn a deep rebuke from Democrats, who hope to unseat him in the state that narrowly backed former President Donald Trump in 2020....
