BMO Stadium (Los Angeles) – Put some respect on his name. Team USA football player Darrell Doucette spoke for the rest of his teammates after manhandling some of the best NFL players in the game, winning the inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Championship on Saturday. An emotional and teary-eyed Doucette, who won MVP of the tournament, was thankful for the opportunity for his team to highlight their skills, letting the world […]

LOS ANGELES – For Tom Brady, throwing the football is like riding a bike – something perfected over time that never leaves your muscle memory. And during practice for Saturday’s inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Classic, it certainly looked like Brady had spent some time working and preparing for his return to competitive play. "I feel great," Brady said, when I asked what kind of shape he was in. "Fortunately, as […]

North Carolina athletic director Bubba Cunningham said Saturday the school is evaluating "all facets" of its tradition-rich men's basketball program after another early exit from the NCAA Tournament under Hubert Davis. Cunningham said in a statement he is working with UNC chancellor Lee Roberts and executive associate athletic director Steve Newmark — who will take over as Cunningham's successor in the coming months — in that review. "Every year at […]

Darrell Green already has a gold jacket as a Pro Football Hall of Famer. He's returning to the field at 66 years old for a chance at a gold medal in flag football. Green, the longtime defensive back for Washington who hasn't played in the NFL since 2002, is taking part in the national team trials this weekend in Chula Vista, California.

One day was madness, the other was mundane. Split across Thursday and Friday, the opening round of this year's NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament became an exercise in polarity. The former dripped with excitement in the form of Ohio State-TCU, Wisconsin-High Point, VCU-North Carolina and an instant classic between Siena and Duke in which the event's No. 1 overall seed was nearly felled. The latter brought an onslaught of predictability as […]

Santa Clara was less than three seconds away from pulling off an upset over No. 7-seeded Kentucky and advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Then, the improbable happened. After Santa Clara forward Allen Graves hit a 3-pointer with 2.4 seconds remaining in the game for No. 10-seeded Santa Clara, Kentucky's Otega Oweh made a near-halfcourt shot off-glass for Kentucky to tie the game at 73-all and force […]

When Alex Karaban decided to return to UConn for another season, his fifth with the program, the clear and obvious goal was to win another national championship. Now a redshirt senior, Karaban entered the 2025-26 campaign having already won two titles with the Huskies. And after the chance for a three-peat fell short last spring, the star forward bypassed the chance to turn pro for one more run alongside head […]

It's quite clear there is nothing timid about Michigan, as the 2026 men's NCAA Tournament is upon us. Not the way head coach Dusty May attacked the transfer portal to construct one of the strongest rosters in the sport. Not the way his players began referring to themselves as "the best team ever assembled" during interviews. And certainly not the way the Wolverines have blasted one opponent after another to […]
