TOPThe Sarasota Paradise to Host United Soccer League Two Playoffs
The Sarasota Paradise soccer team has won the USL League Two South Florida Division championship for the second consecutive season. They are now preparing to host playoff matches at their home arena, Premier Sports Campus in Lakewood Ranch. Their own Conference Quarterfinal match is against Sporting JAX on Friday night; a victory in this game would mark the organization's first-ever postseason win. The USL League Two playoffs involve 32 out of 144 teams from four conferences. Teams compete in a single-elimination format, with the Southern and Eastern conference winners eventually facing the winner of the Western/Central semi-final for the Championship on August 2nd. Premier Sports Campus will host two Southern Conference Quarterfinals on Friday: Laredo Heat SC vs. Fort Lauderdale United at 4:00 PM, followed by the Paradise vs. Sporting JAX at 7:30 PM. The winners of these matches will play each other on July 21st. Head Coach Mirko Dakovic expressed pride in the team's resiliency, roster depth, and commitment to winning throughout the season, emphasizing that such achievements are not guaranteed despite the back-to-back division titles. Despite losing in the first playoff round in 2024, the team is confident about advancing this year. The Paradise features top collegiate and amateur players. Sarasota native Andres Freire (Stetson University) leads the team with 10 goals this season. Defender Felipe Rojas, a Sarasota native and original team member, strengthens the defense. Rojas stated the team feels stronger and more confident than last season and aims to demonstrate their quality nationally.

TOPGame Recap: Late collapse in 89-85 loss to Wolves makes it 3 straight L’s for the Suns
The Phoenix Suns suffered their third consecutive Summer League loss, falling to the Minnesota Timberwolves 89-85. Despite a strong start with an early 10-4 lead, the Suns couldn't maintain momentum. Boogie Ellis led Phoenix with 23 points, highlighted by 12 first-quarter points, though his offensive impact diminished as the game progressed. Phoenix was without Koby Brea due to a left thumb sprain, leaving him day-to-day. Meanwhile, Minnesota's Robert Dillingham delivered an impressive all-around performance with 23 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists, while Leonard Miller dominated with a 22-point, 11-rebound double-double. The Suns began aggressively, ending the first quarter with a commanding 32-16 lead fueled by Ellis and Khaman Maluach's three-pointers. Defensive efforts and Timberwolves' turnovers aided their early control. Sophomores Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro showcased developing chemistry, with Ighodaro experimenting effectively in a point-forward role. However, the second quarter saw a dramatic reversal: Minnesota opened with a 6-0 run while Phoenix went scoreless for over three minutes. Dunn eventually broke the drought with a free throw. Throughout the half, the Suns tested Maluach's versatility—evaluating his three-point shooting, post play, and lob threat potential—confirming his status as a raw but promising prospect.

The fantasy football running backs to draft – and those to avoid - The Athletic
The article discusses significant drops in running back value for 2025 fantasy football drafts, termed "Draft Chasms of Doom," influencing strategies like "Zero RB" (delaying RB selection) or "Hero RB" (drafting one elite RB early then focusing elsewhere). Value Over Replacement Player (VORP) projections show a distinct early drop-off at RB. Christian McCaffrey is projected for 314.1 fantasy points (over 30 more than Jahmyr Gibbs at #2), though his projection is lower than his 2023 workload. Due to injury risk, McCaffrey is ranked below Bijan Robinson, Gibbs, and Saquon Barkley in Tier 1. Several Tier 2 RBs could rise with increased opportunity or better offenses. Tier 3 in projections is notably larger than in rankings, with RB25 (Kaleb Johnson) ending Tier 4. Many RBs in this range (e.g., RJ Harvey, J.K. Dobbins) are in risky timeshares. Tier 4 consists of backs in committees or high-upside backups who could become RB2+ if the starter is injured. The author recommends drafting an RB from Tier 1 (projections) or Tiers 1-2 (rankings) within the first two rounds, partly because the NFL draft influx has led to half the league likely using shared backfields. A "Hero RB" strategy—securing one elite RB, then loading up on WRs, QBs, or TEs—is advised, as later-round timeshare RBs may offer comparable value to earlier picks. While endorsing Hero RB, the author cautions against waiting too long for RBs if value exists in Rounds 3-6. Deferring multiple rounds risks ending up with near-replacement-level players as RB2, though Hero RB doesn’t require ignoring mid-round opportunities for optimal team construction.

The top 15 NFL wide receivers 25-years-old and under
The article ranks the top 15 NFL wide receivers aged 25 or younger (excluding rookies) heading into training camp, emphasizing pure player skill over fantasy football value or team situation. Ja'Marr Chase validated his top potential by winning the 2025 "Triple Crown," leading the NFL in catches, yards, and touchdowns. While known for explosive playmaking and turning short catches into touchdowns, the article argues Chase is underrated as a route runner and technician. His versatility was demonstrated by taking a career-high 32.2% of his snaps from the slot in 2024. Puka Nacua followed his record-breaking rookie season with elite efficiency in 2025. Despite missing time with a knee injury, he led all qualifying wide receivers in successful targets per route run (23.5%), yards per route run (3.57), and first downs per route run (17.7%), with a significant gap over second place. While acknowledging the benefit of playing with Matthew Stafford in Sean McVay's offense, the article asserts Nacua is not merely a product of his system, citing his exceptional Reception Perception success rates against zone (91st percentile) and press coverage (92nd percentile). His development as a separator and ball-winner in tight coverage, combined with his powerful after-catch ability, propelled him into the elite Tier 1 of NFL wide receivers. Amon-Ra St. Brown is highlighted for his consistent high-level production. Among receivers in this young cohort since 2022, he ranks first in successful target rate (64%) and second in first downs per route run (13.9%). He is described as a hyper-efficient player carrying a large target share within one of the NFL's best offenses.

Here are our favorite picks from the Draft -- one for each team
The 2025 MLB Draft featured 615 selections across 20 rounds in two days, with MLB Pipeline identifying standout picks based on talent value, organizational fit, or exceeding expectations. These selections range from first-round choices to as late as the 12th round. Toronto Blue Jays chose high school shortstop JoJo Parker in the first round, prioritizing a premium-position player over anticipated college pitching. Parker's smooth left-handed swing and increasing power potential project him as an impactful everyday hitter, even if he eventually shifts to second or third base. Baltimore Orioles selected outfielder Slater de Brun with the 37th overall pick (Competitive Balance Round A), leveraging their league-largest bonus pool to acquire a player Washington targeted later. De Brun offers surprising power for his 5-foot-10 frame, plus speed, and Corbin Carroll-esque defensive abilities as a left-handed hitter. Tampa Bay Rays picked Arizona outfielder Brendan Summerhill 42nd overall (Competitive Balance Round A), securing MLB Pipeline's 16th-ranked prospect. Despite concerns about chase rates and power, Summerhill's bat-to-ball skills, above-average speed, and defensive versatility (capable in center or right field) provide significant upside. Boston Red Sox unexpectedly landed Oklahoma right-hander Kyson Witherspoon at 15th overall—the draft's top college pitcher. Witherspoon's arsenal includes a 99-mph fastball, an elite curveball, and potentially plus sliders and cutters, fulfilling Boston's pitching focus. New York Yankees drafted high school shortstop Dax Kilby 39th overall (supplemental first round), considering his arrival a 50-50 gamble. The polished Georgia prep hitter stands out for his mature approach, compact left-handed swing, and consistent gap-to-gap contact ability. Cleveland Guardians selected Texas A&M outfielder Jace LaViolette with the final first-round pick (30th overall), gaining notable value for a player once projected first overall. Despite a .258 average and 25.2% strikeout rate as a junior, LaViolette's raw power, athleticism, and Aggie career records (68 HR, 169 BB) remain elite.

2025 MLB draft recap: Best picks, biggest steals and analysis for all 30 teams
The 2025 MLB draft concluded with significant developments across all 30 teams over 20 rounds. The Washington Nationals initiated proceedings by selecting Oklahoma high school shortstop Eli Willits first overall, in a draft characterized by unexpected twists and compelling selections throughout. For the Arizona Diamondbacks, fifth-round pick Nathan Hall emerged as the best value selection. Despite limited playing time at Clemson before transferring to South Carolina, Hall possesses elite tools including 65-grade speed, raw power, and solid contact rates in the SEC, though his swing requires refinement. Brian Curley (No. 92 overall) is projected as the fastest to reach the majors, potentially becoming the draft class' earliest debutant if deployed as a reliever. His plus four-seam fastball and slider, combined with his electric mound presence and SportsCenter-worthy reactions, make him a standout talent. Multiple sleepers warrant attention: Fourth-rounder Dean Livingston shows 100 mph velocity potential but needs command refinement. Sixth-round selection Sawyer Hawks leverages unique pitch shapes to maximize average stuff, while seventh-rounder Joe Ariola features a 65-grade fastball-curveball combo needing execution polish. Eleventh-round pick Luke Doston projects as a multi-inning reliever with distinctive offerings. The Diamondbacks' draft strategy featured two late-round gambles: Jacob Parker (19th round) offers 25-homer upside regardless of defensive position, and Ethin Bingaman (20th round) presents dual prospect value as a power-hitting outfielder and pitcher. Overall, Arizona targeted athletic pitchers with strong stuff and position players with high contact rates, continuing their established draft philosophy.

Four Potential Destinations for Darwin Nunez After Transfer Collapse
Darwin Núñez's departure from Liverpool appears inevitable after a limited role in Arne Slot's first season, where he started only eight Premier League matches and scored seven goals across all competitions. Liverpool's need to recoup funds makes the Uruguayan striker a prime candidate for sale. A proposed transfer to Serie A champions Napoli collapsed after Liverpool reportedly rejected an offer just under £50 million, leading Napoli to withdraw from negotiations. Despite this setback, Núñez is still expected to leave Liverpool during the current summer transfer window. Four potential destinations have emerged: Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal is now considered the most likely option, possessing the financial resources to meet Liverpool's asking price (evidently over £50 million) and offering Núñez significant wages and playing time, especially after failing to sign Victor Osimhen. AC Milan, needing attacking reinforcements after loan expiries and departures, have reportedly submitted a €60 million (£52 million) offer. Núñez could share minutes with Santiago Giménez if he joins the Rossoneri. Atlético Madrid represents a stylistic fit due to Núñez's counter-attacking ability and personality suiting Diego Simeone. However, a move depends on Atlético selling Julián Alvarez (linked to Barcelona), as they currently have Alvarez and Alexander Sørloth as established options. Galatasaray emerges as a potential destination indirectly linked to Osimhen. If the Turkish club cannot secure Osimhen permanently from Napoli due to the €75 million (£65 million) fee, they might redirect their attention towards Núñez as an alternative target.

Tour de France 2025: Full schedule, all stage results and standings - Daily live updates
Jonas Abrahamsen won Stage 11 of the 2025 Tour de France. The Norwegian rider from Uno-X Mobility secured victory after 156.8km of racing around Toulouse in the Haute-Garonne region. He edged out breakaway companion Mauro Schmid (Jayco–AlUla) at the finish line, with Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin–Deceuninck) finishing third. Abrahamsen attacked from the start and maintained his lead throughout, aided by strong cooperation within the breakaway group. This marks Norway's first Tour stage win since Alexander Kristoff in 2020. Ben Healy (EF Education-EasyPost) retains the yellow jersey as the leader of the General Classification. Despite a crash involving Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates XRG) with 4km remaining in Stage 11, there was no change in the overall standings at the top. Healy leads ahead of Pogačar and Remco Evenepoel. Healy gained the yellow jersey on the previous stage, Stage 10. He was part of a breakaway that gained significant time, allowing him to take the overall lead from Pogačar by 29 seconds.

Pre-Match Analysis: Man United Open Pre-Season Against Newly-Promoted Leeds
Manchester United begin their pre-season with a friendly against Leeds United at Stockholm's Strawberry Arena this Saturday. While a non-competitive match, it offers an early look at both teams preparing for the 2025/26 Premier League season. For Manchester United, entering their first full season under manager Rúben Amorim, the match is a chance to refine their tactical identity after a disappointing 15th-place finish last season. It provides an opportunity to see how Amorim's established principles—focusing on structure, pressing, and fluid transitions—develop following summer signings. Potential debuts are a focus for United. New signings Matheus Cunha (signed from Wolves for £64m) and Diego Leon (from Cerro Porteño) could make their first appearances. However, Andre Onana is ruled out with a hamstring injury, Lisandro Martínez continues knee rehab and hasn't travelled, and a potential move for Bryan Mbeumo won't be completed in time for this match. Amorim is expected to field a competitive team blending established players and new arrivals. Leeds United, back in the Premier League after winning the EFL Championship under Daniel Farke, aim to use the match to lay foundations for survival. They arrive with several new signings likely to feature, including midfielder Sean Longstaff (£13m from Newcastle), defenders Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw, and Gabriel Gudmundsson, creative midfielder Felix Nmecha, and winger Jack Harrison returning from loan. Tactically, the focus for Manchester United under Amorim is the continued evolution of his 3-4-3 system. Pre-season is about refining pressing triggers, defensive transitions, and integrating new signings with the core squad. Cunha's movement as a dynamic striker and the blend of wide attackers with wing-backs and midfield control will be key aspects to watch. The match will test the squad's adaptation to Amorim's structured, technically demanding build-up play.

How to avoid bad fantasy football draft picks and dooming your roster from the start - The Athletic
The article uses a metaphor from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade to illustrate key fantasy football drafting strategy. Just as Indiana Jones had to choose wisely to avoid doom, fantasy managers shouldn't blindly follow player rankings on draft platforms or pundits, as this can lead to poor picks ("The Draft Chasms of Doom™"). Rankings obscure a crucial factor: projected points. Players close in rank (e.g., QB No. 4 and No. 5) can have significant differences in projected points. Focusing solely on rank means managers might bypass players offering a bigger scoring advantage over their positional peers, essentially stepping off a "projected points cliff". The core goal is scoring more points weekly than opponents, achieved by winning positional "mini-battles". Success comes from maximizing the point differential at positions you win and minimizing it at positions you lose. Since drafting the top player at every position is unrealistic, the strategy involves identifying big drops in projected points to secure the largest possible scoring advantage at each starting position. The gap in production between players at a position, especially relative to their average draft position (ADP), defines league-winning potential. Using Lamar Jackson's 2024 season as an example, his 434.4 points provided a massive edge: over 50 points more than the next QB (Josh Allen), and a minimum 146-point advantage (8.6 points per week) over the QB12 in a 12-team league. Creating multiple such weekly positional advantages increases win probability. Therefore, maximizing advantages requires identifying value by weighing projected points against ADP and positional scarcity, avoiding being forced into drafting sub-optimal starters.

2025 Fantasy Football: The top 15 WRs 25-years-old and under
The author acknowledges the challenge of ranking wide receivers but proceeds to rank the top 15 NFL wide receivers aged 25 or younger (excluding rookies) heading into training camp, emphasizing these are evaluations of the players as pure talents, not fantasy football rankings based on situation. Ja'Marr Chase validated the author's previous prediction by dominating the 2025 season, winning the receiving Triple Crown (leading in catches, yards, and touchdowns). While known for his explosiveness and big-play ability after the catch, the author argues Chase is underrated as a route runner and technician. Chase's stated goal of mastering all receiver positions was evident as he played a career-high 32.2% of his snaps from the slot in 2024. Puka Nacua excelled in his second season despite a knee injury, leading all qualifying wide receivers in several key efficiency metrics: successful targets per route run (23.5%), yards per route run (3.57), and first downs per route run (17.7%). While benefiting from playing with Matthew Stafford in Sean McVay's offense, the author contends Nacua's elite Reception Perception success rates (91st percentile vs. zone, 92nd percentile vs. press) prove he is not just a product of his surroundings. Nacua, already a powerful runner after the catch, significantly improved as a separator and ball-winner in tight coverage, solidifying his place among the NFL's Tier 1 elite receivers. Amon-Ra St. Brown's consistent production is highlighted. Among the cohort of young receivers since 2022, he ranks first in successful target rate (64%) and second in first downs per route run (13.9%). He is described as a hyper-efficient player who handles a large target share within one of the league's best offenses.

Beyoncé's Atlanta Concert: Injuries Reported
Multiple injuries occurred at a MARTA subway station in Atlanta, Georgia, shortly after midnight following Beyoncé's "Cowboy Carter Tour" stop. The incident happened as crowds were leaving the concert at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Witnesses described crowds rushing to leave the venue, and MARTA officials reported a "stampede" on an escalator at Vine City Station. A MARTA spokesperson confirmed nine people were injured on the escalator. One person suffered a broken ankle, seven were transported to the hospital with cuts and scrapes, and one declined transport. MARTA Police stated the incident began when a person started screaming and running, causing a stampede on the escalator. This caused the escalator to temporarily speed up and then stop suddenly. The escalator has been barricaded, and investigations by manufacturer Schindler and MARTA Safety are pending. This incident follows separate news of a car break-in involving Beyoncé's choreographer, Christopher Grant, and dancer Diandre Blue in Atlanta. While they were eating, two suitcases were stolen from their 2024 Jeep Wagoneer rental car.

2025 Fantasy Football Mock Draft: Drafting No. 3 Overall
NFL training camps are beginning, and preparation is crucial for both real football and fantasy football success. Mock drafts are essential tools for this preparation, helping fantasy players anticipate who might be available at each draft position. The author plans to conduct mock drafts throughout the summer, starting with the scenario of holding the No. 1 overall pick. These mocks will assume a 12-team league with specific roster requirements: QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, 1 Flex (RB/WR/TE), DEF, K, and 7 bench spots. The draft format is a 16-round snake draft using half-PPR scoring. Variations like 10-team, 16-team, and Superflex drafts will be included later. While the author personally prefers avoiding kickers and defenses to prioritize depth, especially at running back for injury insurance, they will include them in these mocks for completeness. They strongly advise drafting kickers and defenses only with the final two picks. A key recommendation is to be creative during mock drafts and avoid selecting the same players repeatedly, as popular sleepers might be targeted by others. The draft establishes the team foundation, and the goal is to build the deepest roster possible. The draft is just the start; players drafting early should monitor the waiver wire for injuries, and staying informed via NFL insider notifications is crucial. The author then presents the results of their third mock draft for the 2025 season, specifically showing picks from the #3 slot: Round 1, Pick 3: Justin Jefferson (WR, Vikings); Round 2, Pick 10: Ladd McConkey (WR, Chargers); Round 3, Pick 3: Chase Brown (RB, Bengals); Round 4, Pick 10: Chuba Hubbard (RB, Panthers). More fantasy analysis on these picks is promised.

Two Yankees draft picks following MLB fathers’ footsteps: ‘That’s an advantage’
The New York Yankees selected multiple players with Major League Baseball family connections in the recent draft. Infielder Kaeden Kent, son of former NL MVP Jeff Kent, was chosen in the third round (103rd overall) from Texas A&M. Additionally, infielder Bryce Martin-Grudzielanek, whose father Mark played 15 MLB seasons, was picked in the 20th round out of USC. Yankees VP of domestic amateur scouting Damon Oppenheimer noted the advantage of drafting prospects raised in MLB households, citing their inherent understanding of professional demands. He referenced 2023 first-rounder George Lombard Jr.—now the team's top prospect—as another example of this successful pattern. Regarding Kaeden Kent, Oppenheimer revealed limited direct contact with Jeff Kent, relying instead on insights from executive advisor Brian Sabean (who knew Kent's competitive reputation from their Giants tenure). Scouting evaluations confirmed Kaeden's independent identity while acknowledging learned competitiveness from his father. The Yankees' top selection was high school shortstop Dax Kilby (No. 38 overall from Georgia). Oppenheimer expressed excitement about Kilby, disclosing that another team picking in the 20s had planned to draft him. Among 19 total selections, 18 were college players—including 10 pitchers—with Kilby as the sole high school choice. The draft class also included Bronx native Richie Bonomolo Jr., an Alabama outfielder taken in the seventh round.

New video highlights the River City Riverwalk
The City of Mason City, Iowa, has released a video documentary showcasing the new River City Riverwalk project. This video details the planning, design, and overall vision behind the Riverwalk. The documentary features insights from several key figures involved, including artist Serge Beaulieu or HYBYOZO Studios, Kristy Sagdalen King (Principal, Bergland + Cram), Aaron Burnett (City Administrator), Anne Hansen (President of Mason City Parks & Recreation Board), and Mayor Bill Schickel. Mason City describes the Riverwalk as a premier feature within the Prairie Rock Trails system. It serves as a link connecting over 20 miles and 600 acres of trails and parks, including the High Line Trail and the future Prairie Rock Trails Bike Park. The Riverwalk is located just south of the Southbridge Mall parking lot. Its most prominent feature is the cylindrical "Harmony in Light" gateway sculpture. This sculpture is made from laser-cut stainless steel and draws inspiration from classic Prairie School designs while incorporating a modern flair. The project was funded through a $4.5 million Destination Iowa grant, Local Option Sales and Service Tax revenue, and donations. This funding forms part of the city's annual capital improvement budget.

SF Giants avoid disaster after in-game interview issue vs. Dodgers
An in-game interview with San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman during a pivotal matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 8, 2025, sparked renewed criticism of the broadcasting practice. Exclusive broadcaster Roku Sports conducted the interview while Chapman was defensively positioned in the top of the sixth inning, equipping him with an earpiece that disrupted his ability to hear crucial communication from teammates. During the live interview, Roku announcer Stephen Nelson asked Chapman how he anticipates upcoming pitches. Chapman revealed the earpiece impaired his hearing, stating: "I usually get it from Willy. But the fact that I got my left ear with an earpiece in, I'm having a hard time hearing what pitch is coming." He referenced shortstop Willy Adames, who uses PitchCom technology to relay pitch selections—critical information since offspeed pitches more frequently result in ground balls hit toward third base. The PitchCom system, which allows pitchers and catchers to electronically signal fielders about pitch types, was compromised by the interview earpiece. This created a situation where Chapman couldn't adequately prepare for potential plays due to the broadcast interruption. Fortunately, the communication issue did not impact the game's outcome. Giants pitcher Robbie Ray retired the Dodgers in order that inning without any balls hit toward Chapman's position. Nonetheless, the incident highlighted persistent concerns about in-game interviews distracting players during live action.

What to Wear to a Job Interview, According to Hiring Experts
The article discusses appropriate interview attire for 2025, emphasizing that despite relaxed office dress codes and remote work trends, dressing correctly for the interview itself remains crucial and varies significantly by industry. Personal stylist Joshua Davis advises that interviews require a more conservative approach than the actual job, even in casual workplaces. He recommends researching the company culture through LinkedIn and employee social media to gauge expectations. Davis explains that client-facing professionals like lawyers (especially in tech IP), bankers, consultants, and accountants should research their potential clients and dress slightly more conservatively than them. He warns that HR departments often hesitate to recommend candidates due to wardrobe issues, commonly citing attire that is too casual, sloppy, or overly sexy, as clothes signal cultural fit and company representation. The article highlights law firms, particularly long-established ones in cities like New York, as the most formal end of the spectrum. Jessica Chin Somers, a legal recruiter, states that attorney interviewees must wear a suit with leather shoes (e.g., a blue suit with brown shoes or gray suit with black shoes for men), stressing fit as paramount. She firmly states that sneakers are unacceptable for law firm interviews regardless of the firm's perceived "coolness" or the shoes' cost.

Miami 2-1 Nashville (Jul 12, 2025) Game Analysis
Lionel Messi scored twice to lead Inter Miami to a 2-1 home victory against Nashville SC on Saturday, extending his MLS-record scoring streak. The win snapped Nashville's club-record 15-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, marking their first loss since April 19.

Spain 2-1 England (Jul 14, 2024) Game Analysis
Substitute Mikel Oyarzabal scored an 87th-minute winner, securing Spain a dramatic 2-1 victory over England in the European Championship final at Berlin's Olympiastadion. This historic win earned Spain a record fourth European title. After a cautious first half with minimal chances, Spain broke the deadlock just two minutes into the second period. Lamine Yamal crossed to Nico Williams, who slotted home. England equalized in the 73rd minute when substitute Cole Palmer curled in a precise low shot after being set up by Jude Bellingham, seemingly sending the match to extra time. Oyarzabal, who came on in the 67th minute, decided the match by poking in Marc Cucurella's cross past goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. The Real Sociedad forward later stated, "I have done my job," emphasizing the collective effort of Spain's squad. Spain's triumph marked their first major trophy since 2012 and broke Germany's record for most Euro titles. They became the first team to win all seven tournament matches and set a new scoring record with 15 goals. The victory also highlighted emerging talents like 22-year-old Williams and 17-year-old Yamal, who became the youngest player in a World Cup or Euro final. For England, the loss extended their 58-year major trophy drought and made them the first team to lose consecutive European Championship finals. Captain Harry Kane described the defeat as "as tough as it gets," acknowledging England's failure to maintain pressure after equalizing.

LYNX VS SKY PREDICTIONS, PICKS & ODDS FOR TODAY’S WNBA GAME
The article predicts Angel Reese will exceed 12.5 rebounds in the Chicago Sky's game against the Minnesota Lynx. Reese leads the WNBA in rebounds per game (12.8) and total rebounds (244), putting her on pace to break the single-season record. She has been instrumental in the Sky's recent competitive streak, averaging 16.1 rebounds over her last seven games, including at least 13 rebounds in six of those contests. Reese has a strong history against the Lynx, grabbing 17 rebounds in their most recent matchup on July 6. She also recorded 19 and 16 rebounds in two games against Minnesota last season. The Lynx defense, allowing 35.1 total rebounds per game over their last seven (tied for 4th most), is susceptible to offensive rebounds (8.7 per game). Reese averages 4.1 offensive rebounds this season and 6.3 per game in her last three matchups against Minnesota, further supporting the prediction of her exceeding the 12.5 rebound line. Despite the Sky's 6-13 overall record, the article notes they have been playing competitively lately, covering the spread in seven consecutive games heading into this matchup, suggesting the home team could keep the game close.

They are also a 4.5-point favorite against Oregon for the "White Out" game on Sept. 27. For the Oct. 18 trip to Iowa, Penn State is a 10.5-point favorite. However, they are a 3.5-point underdog (FanDuel) or 4.5-point underdog (DraftKings) to Ohio State for their Nov. 1 matchup in Columbus. Penn State is also a 16.5-point favorite over Indiana on Nov. 8. DraftKings also places Penn State fourth nationally at +750 for the national championship (with Ohio State as the +500 favorite) and lists them as a -300 bet to make the playoffs. This optimism stems from Penn State's strong roster entering the 2025 season under head coach James Franklin. The offense returns experienced players including quarterback Drew Allar, running backs Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen, and five offensive linemen with starting experience. The defense features All-Big Ten and All-America candidates at every level, highlighted by tackle Zane Durant, end Dani Dennis-Sutton, cornerback AJ Harris, and safety Zakee Wheatley. Analyst Urban Meyer highlighted Penn State's high roster retention from last year's 13-3 team, stating fans should "watch out for Penn State" and placing them among the nation's top three rosters alongside Texas and Ohio State.

Miami 2-1 Nashville (13 Jul, 2025) Game Analysis
Lionel Messi scored two goals to lead Inter Miami to a 2-1 home victory over Nashville SC on Saturday night in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, extending his MLS-record scoring streak. His performance was decisive in ending Nashville's club-record 15-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, marking their first loss since April 19. Messi achieved his fifth consecutive MLS match with two or more goals, setting a new league record. This win improved Inter Miami's record to 11-3-5 (38 points) and extended their unbeaten run against Nashville to 4-0-1 in their last five meetings. It also marked Miami's fifth straight MLS win overall and their third consecutive victory since being eliminated from the FIFA Club World Cup on June 29. Messi opened the scoring in the 17th minute with a spectacular free-kick that bypassed Nashville's defensive wall and beat goalkeeper Joe Willis. Nashville equalized in the 49th minute when Hany Mukhtar scored his 10th goal of the season with a header off Andy Najar's cross, assisted by Patrick Yazbek. Messi then secured the win in the 62nd minute by capitalizing on a Willis error, intercepting a poor clearance with his left foot, rounding the goalkeeper, and scoring. With these goals, Messi now has 16 MLS goals this season, tying him for the league lead with Nashville's Sam Surridge. Messi has contributed to 23 goals in MLS matches and scored 22 goals across all competitions this season. Both teams return to action on Wednesday, with Inter Miami visiting Cincinnati and Nashville hosting Columbus.

San Diego 2-1 Chicago (Jul 12, 2025) Game Analysis
San Diego FC defeated the Chicago Fire 2-1 in an away match on Saturday, extending their road winning streak to four consecutive games. Anders Dreyer scored both goals for the Western Conference leaders in the first half, netting in the 8th minute and again during stoppage time just before halftime. Dreyer's opening goal came after Luca Bombino delivered a precise pass through traffic to the unmarked forward, who calmly finished from close range. His second goal resulted from a well-timed one-touch finish off a cross from Chucky Lozano, marking his 11th league goal of the season. Chicago dominated statistically with an 18-7 shot advantage but struggled to convert opportunities. Key chances included Brian Gutierrez's point-blank attempt saved in the 4th minute, another blocked shot in the 24th, and Hugo Cuypers' missed header in the 37th. The Fire finally scored in the 87th minute when Cuypers converted a corner kick, but couldn't find an equalizer despite late pressure. San Diego goalkeeper Pablo Sisniega, making his first MLS start since 2023, made three crucial saves including a reactionary two-handed stop against Cuypers' point-blank header in the 84th minute. San Diego's defense also blocked seven Chicago shots throughout the match. With the victory, expansion side San Diego improves to 13-6-3 (42 points), while Chicago falls to 8-9-4 (28 points) and a 2-4-4 home record. San Diego has outscored opponents 14-8 during their four-match road winning streak.

4 Fantasy Football Sleepers to Draft: Tight Ends (2025)
The article promotes fantasy football draft cheat sheets, highlighting expert analysis on draft targets, sleepers, overvalued players, and busts. It specifically details Pat Fitzmaurice’s tight end sleepers for 2025 drafts, featuring four players: Evan Engram (DEN): After an injury-plagued 2024 season (missed 8 games), Engram signed a two-year, $23 million deal with Denver. Head coach Sean Payton plans to utilize him as a versatile "joker" role—previously held by players like Jimmy Graham—emphasizing Engram’s run-after-catch ability. Though duplicating his 2023 career-high stats (114 catches, 963 yards) at age 31 is unlikely, his amplified role makes him a potential value pick. Kyle Pitts (ATL): Despite unmet expectations since his record-setting rookie season (first rookie TE with 1,000+ yards in 60 years), Pitts remains a sleeper at age 24. He recorded 47 catches, 602 yards, and 4 touchdowns in 2024. Factors like adapting to a new offensive coordinator and disappointing QB play (Kirk Cousins) may have hindered him. Optimism exists with increased system familiarity and new QB Michael Penix Jr. Zach Ertz (WAS): The 34-year-old finished as TE8 in half-point PPR scoring last season with 66 catches, 654 yards, and 7 touchdowns. After a slow start (1 TD in first 10 games), he scored 6 TDs in the final 7 regular-season games and added a playoff TD. Re-signing with Washington on a one-year deal, his strong chemistry with QB Jayden Daniels positions him as a sneaky late-round option. Brenton Strange (JAC): With Evan Engram’s departure, Strange ascends to the top of Jacksonville’s TE depth chart. Last season, he posted 40 catches for 411 yards and 2 touchdowns. In 8 games without Engram, he averaged 3.6 receptions and 34.4 yards. At age 24, his expanded role makes him an intriguing sleeper. The article concludes by directing readers to Fitzmaurice’s full cheat sheet and subscription links for further draft preparation.
