- October 25, 2016
Those comments are one of many from athletes in many different sports who've complained about such a characterization. "You tell me which is worse", Noah said . The fact that some men do speak this way in locker rooms and other places where women aren't around just shows how pervasive rape culture is. If men only feel they can say something when there are no women around, they shouldn't be saying it at all. (more...)

- October 25, 2016
It was another hard afternoon for Manchester City in the Premier League yesterday, as their win-less run in all competitions was extended to five matches following a 1-1 draw with Southampton . Southampton may have been excellent on the day but this was a game to forget for John Stones, whose bad blunder allowed Nathan Redmond to put the visiting team in front and then watched his legitimate goal ruled out for offside before Kelechi Iheanacho equalised after the interval.

Mourinho involved in Conte spat
- October 25, 2016
Pedro's opener after 30 seconds was followed by a Gary Cahill goal, a fine Eden Hazard strike and a superb first Chelsea goal for N'Golo Kante. Conte had urged home fans to make more noise after Kante made it 4-0 in the 70th minute. Pedro , who started the rout, set up Kante to complete it. Kante waltzed through United's brittle defence easily, going past Smalling - who else? - before slotting beyond De Gea. (more...)

Unless there is a last-minute setback, Schwarber, who hit five home runs and batted.333 a year ago in nine postseason games , will be the DH for the power-packed Cubbies. Salazar has not pitched since September 9 because of forearm tightness. "I'm excited, the city's excited", he said. Davis, who'd spent his time since Oakland with Toronto and Detroit, started about two-thirds of the Indians' games and his 495 plate appearances are the most of any Indians' outfielder as manager Terry ...

Houston Texans cornerback Kevin Johnson out indefinitely with broken foot
- October 25, 2016
That's the second-longest streak in National Football League history. The Houston offense is led by Brock Osweiler , who has struggled in his first year as full-time starter. Then Osweiler provided the big throw - a 36-yard laser strike to Jaelen Strong - that set up Novak's winning kick. But a replay review showed the pass hit the turf before Hilton controlled it, and the completion was overturned. (more...)

Cubs fan, 90, to celebrate with Jagermeister

Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade wasn't necessarily a Cubs fan growing up, but that doesn't mean he isn't going to have some fun with the team being in the World Series for the first time in over 70 years. Hendricks pitched two-hit ball for 7 1/3 innings. "We got four more big ones to go, but we're going to enjoy this". A Cubs team that won a major league-leading 103 regular-season games chased Kershaw after five innings. (more...)

Johnson Wagner leads US PGA event by one
- October 25, 2016
Kizzire, who took the 54-hole lead on Sunday morning, held the lead for much of the final round while fighting nerves and his swing on the back nine, but did not make a birdie after the 11th hole in a round of two-under 70. He rolled in an 18-footer for birdie on the 17th. Steele's victory came on the same course where he held the 54-hole lead a year ago but could not close the deal, eventually finishing equal 17th.

J.T. Barrett almost single-handily kept Ohio State's chances at a national title alive Saturday night in a hostile environment against No. 8 Wisconsin . Barrett needs three more touchdowns, rushing or passing, to break QB Braxton Miller's career school record (88). It wouldn't be long before OSU finally got a touchdown, though. (more...)

No. 7 Huskers see Wisconsin stadium as their proving ground

That's not to say that there's anything wrong with being 7-0; past year proved that Husker fans should appreciate each and every win. "We are extremely happy to win the game", Riley said in the postgame press conference. The Huskers lost 55-45 at Purdue a year ago and the home crowd sat in stunned silence as the Boilermakers pulled out to a 14-10 lead on David Blough's two touchdown passes to DeAngelo Yancey, the second one an 88-yard catch-and-run.

The Cubs are making their first appearance since 1945 and chasing their first title since 1908.
