Alabama’s new coordinators Steele and Rees join Saban’s staff

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 16:48:18 GMT

Kevin Steele has been coaching for nearly a decade longer than Tommy Rees has been alive.Now Steele is embarking on his second stint as Alabama’s defensive coordinator and the 31-year-old Rees is approaching his first season as the Crimson Tide’s offensive coordinator. They’re at very different stages of their careers, but with the same mission: Help Nick Saban and Alabama get back to national championship form.Both made it clear Sunday they’re putting their imprint on Saban’s system, not the other way around. Steele, who was defensive coordinator on Saban’s first Tide team 17 years ago, wasn’t biting on a question about returning the defense to “the Alabama standard.”“That’s kind of a loaded question in some regards,” said the 65-year-old Steele, who is beginning his 40th year of coaching. “This process is built — and it started in ’07, I was here. It hasn’t gone anywhere, it really hasn’t. Obviously, offensive football has changed. It’s harder on defense right now at this present ...

Arsenal beats Man City in penalty shootout to win Community Shield after stoppage-time equalizer

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 16:48:18 GMT

LONDON (AP) — Arsenal has started the English season how the team hopes to end it — by getting the better of Manchester City.Arsenal beat City 4-1 in a penalty shootout, after equalizing in the 101st minute in regulation time to draw 1-1, to win the Community Shield at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.The match serves as a traditional curtain-raiser to the season and is typically played between the winners of last season’s Premier League and FA Cup. Because City won both as part of the title treble also containing the Champions League for the first time, Arsenal took part as the runner-up in the league and might have gained a psychological edge heading into the new campaign that starts on Friday.“For us, it’s a statement,” Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale said. “It’s a marker to know we can go and beat Man City in a big game when it matters.”Cole Palmer curled in a 78th-minute goal after coming off the bench to give City the lead, only for Leandro Trossard to score with a deflected shot i...

(AP) — Bryson DeChambeau became the fourth player on a top-level tour to shoot 58 on Sunday, making birdie on his last four holes to finally capture his first LIV Golf title at the rain-softened Greenbrier.DeChambeau holed a 35-foot putt on the par-3 18th and leapt in the air with both arms extended to celebrate his lowest score ever and first LIV victory.Jim Furyk had a 58 in the Travelers Championship on the PGA Tour in 2016, while Ryo Ishikawa at The Crowns in 2010 and S.H. Kim at the 2021 Golf Partner Pro-Am each shot 58 on the Japan Golf Tour.What made DeChambeau’s round stand out was he shot 58 with a bogey.“Oh my God. Do you believe that?” DeChambeau said after his big putt as a steady rain fell on the Old White course at Greenbrier Resort.DeChambeau finished at 23-under 187 for a six-shot victory over Mito Pereira, earning the $4 million payoff for the individual competition.The Greenbrier previously hosted a PGA Tour event for nine years. ...

(CNN) — Mike Pence, exvicepresidente de Estados Unidos, dijo que cumplirá la ley si debe testificar en el juicio contra el expresidente Donald Trump por el caso de las elecciones de 2020.“No tengo planes de testificar, pero, siempre cumpliremos con la ley.

Confío en que su abogado y él litigarán todas esas cosas”, continuó.A Pence lo citó el fiscal especial Jack Smith en febrero pasado para que declarara ante el jurado investigador y, tras algunas idas y venidas legales, testificó en abril.Trump se declaró inocente este jueves en ...

KYIV ­— Representatives of some 40 countries that took part in Saudi-hosted Ukraine peace talks this weekend agreed that any kind of peace treaty aimed to end Russia’s war against Ukraine must be based on respect for the territorial integrity of Ukraine and the U.N.

FOXBORO — Outside linebacker Matthew Judon was suddenly a lot more present on the practice field two days after the team agreed to give him a well-earned pay raise for the 2023 season.Judon joked, “I haven’t been sad yet” since he agreed to terms on an amended contract that will guarantee him $14 million with a chance to earn up to $18 million if he hits all of his incentives.

Musk says cage fight with Zuckerberg will stream on X

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 16:48:18 GMT

NEW YORK — Elon Musk says his potential in-person fight with Mark Zuckerberg would be streamed on his social media site X, formerly known as Twitter.The two tech billionaires seemingly agreed to a “cage match” face-off in late June. Zuckerberg is actually trained in mixed martial arts, and the CEO of Facebook’s parent company Meta posted about completing his first jiu jitsu tournament earlier this year.“Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on X,” Musk wrote in a post Sunday on the platform. “All proceeds will go to charity for veterans.”Musk said earlier Sunday he was training for the fight by lifting weights.“Don’t have time to work out, so I just bring them to work,” Musk wrote.Whether or not Musk and Zuckerberg actually make it to the ring in Las Vegas has yet to be seen — especially as Musk often tweets about action prematurely or without following through. But even if their cage match agreement is all a joke, the ba...
