CNN —There was some serious star power in Green Bay on Sunday afternoon. Twelve-time Grammy award-winning artist Taylor Swift was in attendance for the Kansas City Chiefs’ 27-19 road defeat against the Green Bay Packers. It was her first appearance at a Chiefs game since October 7, when the reigning Super Bowl champions took down the Los Angeles Chargers, 31-17. Lambeau featured another celebrity power couple in the stadium on Sunday: seven time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles was in attendance to support her husband, Green Bay safety Jonathan Owens.

Two years later, Saigon fell to the communists, leaving a bitter taste among former U.S. allies who blamed Nixon, Kissinger and Congress for abandoning them. “The emigration of Jews from the Soviet Union is not an objective of American foreign policy,” Kissinger tells Nixon.

Despite the luxurious lifestyle that National Football League players can often afford, New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito is happy to live with his parents. "It was a no-brainer for me," said DeVito, 25, in a recent interview with ESPN. Although he's a rookie, the New Jersey native has taken over as starting quarterback since the team's starting quarterback Daniel Jones and backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor were sidelined with injuries. "The decision was made since this level of football is stressful for a rookie, especially from the quarterback position. So everything outside of football is handled by my family."

CNN —New York Giants rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito will make his first career start in the NFL on Sunday, but there seems to be little chance of the success going to his head. DeVito, a New Jersey native, called the decision to continue living with his parents a “no-brainer.”“Everything that I need is there at the house,” the 25-year-old told ESPN. “The decision was made since this level of football is stressful for a rookie, especially from the quarterback position. “Your mom helping with your wash, making sure you’re up on time, no distractions, unbelievable.”DeVito will start his first game for the Giants on Sunday. “Gets to be starting quarterback for the New York Football Giants.

Nov 12 (Reuters) - New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick blamed "missed opportunities" after a dispiriting 10-6 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday as the once mighty NFL franchise cratered to their worst record through 10 games in more than two decades. "Obviously a disappointing game - similar theme that we've had other games this year: just too many missed opportunities," Belichick told reporters. "Just got to play better situational football and do a better job taking advantage of the opportunities we have." "When people (are) talking about 'Should Bill Belichick be fired mid-season?' Belichick and the team will have an extended period to regroup as the Patriots are on a bye week before facing the New York Giants on the road.

A recent poll of 1,005 US adults found the average American spends 26 minutes a day reading and responding to group chats. For us to survive and thrive as humans, it's time to agree on the Definitive Etiquette of the Group Chat. The ultimate appeal of group chats — their necessity, really — is that they've become the only social media that's actually social. Group chats can become overwhelming, of course, especially as they creep into other apps and especially as they often duplicate participants. Don't talk about the group chat outside the group chat.

___The generational shift at quarterback in the NFL reached a new milestone last week. This was the first time since Week 6 of the 2002 season that no quarterback born in the 1980s took the field. That raised the total of rookie starting QBs this season to nine, tying the non-replacement record set in 2019. The youth movement at quarterback has played a role in the struggles on offense across the league in the first half of the season, with scoring at its lowest mark through nine weeks since 2007. NEW YUCK, NEW YUCKThe performance so far this season for the New York teams has been rather offensive.

The Minnesota Vikings and the Las Vegas Raiders are proof that major midseason upheaval doesn't necessarily mean it's time to start aiming for the draft instead of the playoffs. I know what it was like to learn this in three weeks and have to get on the field," Risner said. “I know a lot of nicknames per se, but name names, that’s for this week, that’s the assignment for this week," he said. The Raiders became the first team since 2009 to score fewer than 20 points on offense in each of the first eight games of the season. “So if that’s the case," Gronkowski said, "I think Josh McDaniels comes back as offensive coordinator in New England, that’s for sure.”There'd be no Brady waiting for him this time.
