In an account cited by the newspaper Izvestia, Russian channel REN TV reported on Tuesday that Russian Su-30SM fighters had been monitoring the vessel, which it said had “appeared near Crimea.” It said that planes had escorted the U....
Team USA plays for a chance at knockout stage revenge vs. Japan — and an opportunity at their second baseball gold medal in the Olympics — vs. the Republic of Korea on Thursday, Aug. 5. Maybe the odds are in their favor: The United States knocked off Korea in a group-stage matchup 4-2, and Korea is coming off a potentially demoralizing, late-game loss to Japan on Wednesday morning. The good news: Team USA is almost guaranteed to walk away from the Olympics with a medal of some sort....

Bruce Arena has left many of his biggest stars at home - at least until the knockout stage - and selected a group of mostly young, MLS-based players looking to stake their claim for a more permanent place in his lineup. Gold Cup: Everything you need to know Panama proved to be a tough opponent for the Americans in their World Cup qualifying match in March, securing a 1-1 draw, but Arena will hope to show he has now completely lifted his country out of the slump they were mired in towards the end of Jurgen Klinsmann’s reign at this tournament....
After Costa Rica’s Keysher Fuller bounced a cross into the back of the net inside the first minute, the USA recovered to equalize on a stunning goal by Sergino Dest. That served to ease the team’s nerves and the USA proceeded to dictate the match with the game-winner coming on a shot by Tim Weah that went off the post and the Costa Rican ‘keeper before crossing the line. The Americans caught a break that the Costa Rican goalkeeper in question wasn’t Keylor Navas of Paris Saint-Germain, who departed at halftime with an adductor injury, making way for backup Leonel Moreira....
More: Odds to win Gold Cup | Schedule Their opponents Honduras were CONCACAF representatives at last year’s World Cup and in recent months have shown themselves to be a tough side, with recent draws against Mexico and Paraguay. The Central Americas should in theory provide more of a challenge than the other sides in the group, Haiti and Panama.

USC’s 34-27 defeat, before an announced crowd of 57,116, dropped the Trojans to 5-6 on the season and put the team in danger of being ineligible for a bowl game. But that wasn’t important to surly fans who yelled at Helton and hung a sign that read, “HELTON OUT TIME FOR CHANGE” above the tunnel to USC’s locker room. As usual, Helton pretended not to be concerned. But those aren’t the only signs he could be in trouble in Los Angeles....
Olson, a lifelong USC fan, has been blind since the age of 12 because of a rare form of retinal cancer but has been around the Trojans program since 2009, when then coach Pete Carroll heard about his story and his love for the team. And Olson, who lost his left eye before his first birthday, got his shot in the fourth quarter of USC’s 49-31 win over Western Michigan....
For reasons that are somewhat unclear, Thomas and Friends has become a favorite among children (and some adults) with autism. There are theories about its popularity. Some believe that it’s all about the fact that trains line up on a track (and most people with autism enjoy lining objects up). Others think it’s all about the simplicity and repetitive nature of the stories. Whatever the reasons, however, it’s hard to have a child with autism and avoid knowing a great deal about the various types of engines once used to move people and freight around the United Kingdom....

“My sense is that we’re going to have good support,” Arena said on Monday. “I think when we played Honduras in San Jose there was concern that there was going to be a big Honduran population attending the game and that wasn’t the case. We had a favorable crowd in Denver. I would anticipate it’s going to be favorable to us. We’re well aware of the fact that there are many Costa Ricans in the greater New York area, but that’s all part of the exercise....
On Monday, U.S. Soccer released the results of a year-long investigation by former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates into player abuse within women’s professional soccer. Among the teams cited in the report were the Portland Thorns, where Sauerbrunn has played since 2020, and by the end of her Tuesday session with the media, she all but called for the team to be sold by owner Merritt Paulson.

While the Axes are not in the top tier, they are certainly viable in PVE....
During a recent stream, Valkyrae accidentally leaked her YouTube revenue for the past month. Apparently, Valkyrae made $172,908.21 in the last month, with analytics indicating that this significant number is actually somewhat less than she earned in the previous month. And this is only taking into account the money she is making from her YouTube channel views. It doesn’t include money Valkyrae makes from sponsorships and other deals she has, so it’s safe to say that she’s one of the world’s top-earning streamers....
