- January 16, 2018
The American had been suffering from a severe flu in the lead up to the Australian Open, and unsuccessfully attempted to have a delayed start to the tournament. "The second one I believe was an insult against me". I don't have to make myself uncomfortable because it's ill prepared. It was a stunning turn-around from last year's US Open when the host nation provided all four women's semifinalists -, and Vandeweghe - the first time that had happened in 36 years. (more...)

Conte says "everything is possible" when asked about future
- January 16, 2018
The champions struggled for much of the game against the team that won the title a year before them, with Leicester creating a string of chances in the first half, thanks in large part to winger Riyad Mahrez. "There is something odd that after the first game we lost against Burnley the press pushed quickly to sack me", Conte continued. "This guy is not 100 per cent ready but I think he can start to help us for the rest of this season". (more...)

Former Vikings on the Saints ready for first trip back to Minnesota
- January 16, 2018
Cameron was born in Minneapolis in 1989. A group calling themselves Take a Knee Nation Twin Cities, has planned to stage a protest against police violence outside the Vikings stadium on Sunday. They didn't rest starters, which surprised me. While pretty much all Vikings fans can agree they are a tortured population (a few too many even take pride in this suffering, if you ask me), you'll get some disagreement in which is worse.
