“It’s a daily issue that people are waking up and reading about,” said state Rep. Tom Demmer, the House GOP’s budget point man and a candidate for state treasurer. “People are, themselves, or their loved ones, being directly impacted as (a) victim of a crime. And the governor’s talked about additional money that he’s put into these programs, but what are the results? Why are we not seeing the budget rhetoric from the governor match up with the actual results that people are dealing with every day?”
You all seem to be operating from the assumption that “Jack” is at a loss because he hasn’t ever had a girlfriend – but there are any number of reasons why he hasn’t partnered up, including the idea that he might not be into girls, that he might be unsure of his sexuality, or that he is simply not quite ready or interested in a romantic relationship of any kind.
“I’m blessed to be part of this team, with this group of guys, this coaching staff,” added Stafford, who spent his first 12 NFL seasons in Detroit. “You can’t write the story any better. I’m at a loss for words. I’m just having a blast playing ball with these guys.”

“I take a lot of pride in consistency,” Vučević said. “It’s something that I’ve really been good at my whole career, being a big man that can score and does a good job rebounding.

That’s something I can always control every night no matter what’s going on out there. I can always box out my guy and grab a rebound.”
One week after the Bills’ Josh Allen called tails and it came up heads for the overtime coin toss — giving Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs the ball — Bengals backup quarterback Brandon Allen called heads and the coin came up tails. The Chiefs opened overtime again with the ball, but Vonn Bell intercepted Mahomes on the third play, and Burrow and the Bengals took over.
Larin exchanged passes with Jonathan David on a quick counter, turning around defender Miles Robinson, then beat Turner to the far post with a right-footed shot from 14 yards for his Canada-record 23rd international goal, one more than Dwayne De Rosario. It was the 16th career qualifying goal for Larin, who had an equalizer as Canada tied the U.S. 1-1 in September in a qualifier in Nashville, Tenn.
Now Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady, the proverbial G.OA.T, is set to retire, and the tributes have been flowing since Saturday’s announcement by ESPN. Though the conference title games were on deck Sunday, the focus of ESPN’s “SportsCenter” all morning was on Brady — why he decided to call it quits now, why he will be remembered as the greatest ever, and how he went from a sixth-round draft pick to an NFL legend.
“While it is difficult to fill in for a coach that has a pedigree like Claude Julien, I am honored to be considered as the person to lead Canada’s Men’s Olympic Team as head coach,” Colliton said. “We have a very close-knit, experienced coaching staff that has gained a lot of knowledge from Claude in our short time together, and I know our staff will continue to support each other as we look to achieve our goal of winning an Olympic gold medal.”
