Jurgen Klopp does not want Liverpool fans singing too early
- September 14, 2016
I didn't speak about the goal we conceded, I spoke about the reaction we showed after the goal - that made no sense. We were waiting for this type of football, very aggressive. "When I speak about this, I have to say (to the fans). please don't sing my name before the game is decided", Klopp said on Saturday. The home side might have lifted the growing anxiety on 56 minutes when Firmino played in Sturridge, but the striker attempted to lift the ball over the advancing Schmeichel and ... (more...)

Minnesota Vikings starting QB will likely be Sam Bradford, says Titans coach
- September 14, 2016
You opt for the more talented, (slightly) more mobile quarterback with less experience and half the playbook -OR- you opt to go with the full breadth of the playbook and start Shaun Hill . It's possible Hill gets that nod, but Bradford gets put in if the offense is struggling. Bridgewater suffered a season-ending knee injury August 30 in practice and reportedly will undergo surgery today to fix a torn anterior cruciate ligament and other structural damage. (more...)

San Francisco rout LA Rams in season opener
- September 14, 2016
The Rams made 49ers quarterback Blaine Gabbert look somewhat competent, and that alone is a feat worthy of day-after scorn. The 49ers played as if they were told what the Rams were going to do on each drive. Rams & 49ers last night, in the night cap of the MNF double header on ESPN , it clearly didn't live up to the hype. The reason for optimism is the Rams had the No. (more...)

- September 14, 2016
The Marlins are 4-0 in Koehler's last four with four day's rest, and 4-1 in Koehler's last five Tuesday starts.

Oakland Raiders: Two-point conversion call shows growth
- September 14, 2016
That'll never measure up to the 1980 Raiders' Super Bowl triumph in the Big Easy, but it's the kind of victory that can give a young squad a psychological edge.
