If you’re wondering why Jermaine Kearse, a member of the Seahawks in real life, is on the Cardinals’ roster, don’t overthink it. Packers running back Eddie Lacy is in the backfield for the Cardinals with Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. split out wide right and Seahawks tight end Luke Willson on the left side of the Arizona line. If a Cardinals fan wanted to stack his roster to avoid another Panthers victory, like last season’s playoff game in Charlotte, N....

Madden NFL’s ultimate team mode has come under fire before. The chances of pulling a high tier are low, and some view attempting it as a waste of money. It is possible, however, to upgrade the more average players in order to compete. All the player needs are training points.

Among these are “deep state” theories, essentially arguing that elite powers within the the government are covertly directing the action against the former President. One of the more esoteric interpretations came from North Carolina Republican Congressman Madison Cawthorn, who reached deep into Ancient Roman history for an analogy that has proven to be strained at best. In a tweet sent on August 9, 2022, Cawthorn claimed that the raid echoed the actions of Roman dictator Sulla, who led and won the first full-scale civil war in Roman history....

The Republican representative, from the southeastern state, told the crowd in Selma: “We have so many in the national party of our country that believe the key to saving our nation is weakening, cheapening our platform and going after these non-existent middle-ground voters.” Trump-endorsed Cawthorn has come under fire within the GOP in recent weeks after he claimed without evidence that some colleagues in D.C. had asked him to “come to an orgy” and that he had witnessed others “do a key bump of cocaine....

A shot by substitute Vinicius took a deflection off defender Kiko Olivas in the 83rd minute and caught goalkeeper Jordi Masip out of position. Masip touched the ball but couldn’t keep it from going in. The league credited the 18-year-old Vinicius with the goal. Sergio Ramos added a second goal from the penalty spot in the 88th after Karim Benzema was fouled by Fernando Calero. Until then, Valladolid threatened to extend Madrid’s winless run....

Deckbuilding is obviously a big part of the fun for many Magic: The Gathering players, but that’s not the case for everyone. Jumpstart aims to offer a new way to quickly build decks by smashing two thematic boosters together. This varies from the usual pre-constructed deck products because there is a ton of room for variation and customization thanks to the different themes included in each booster.

How do you feel this story is relevant today? What do you hope modern audiences take from it? Unfortunately, I don’t think there’s ever a time when it’s not relevant. The fact that Tim and Stephen and all the guys in that prison were able to see the system that they had been raised in from the outside for the immoral, oppressive tyranny that it was. Why do you feel it was important for the film to play like a thriller?...

The flight which carried 267 passengers landed at the Stansted Airport in London on Saturday due to security threat. Jayawardene tweeted about the incident and credited the police for their efforts. “Thanks all for concern. What an experience! Due to security threat got diverted to Stansted.

Mahesh Bhupathi has been in the public eye for a long time now. Whether it’s his exploits on the doubles court (Bhupathi has won 4 men’s doubles and 8 mixed doubles grand slam titles) or off the court (Bhupathi has been married twice, has often taken an anti-establishment stance in Indian tennis and has a business venture Globosport that has is one of the leading players in the Indian sports and entertainment space)....

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes did the dazzling on Sunday when he threw for six touchdowns in his team’s 42-37 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. What’s more impressive than his stat line, 23-of-28 passing with 326 yards and zero interceptions, is the fact that the second-year QB is the only gunslinger to tally 10 touchdowns through two games — and he is just getting started. Another QB razzled both on and off the field....

Vietnam Revisited As one who served in Vietnam (1970-71, as a Red Cross hospital worker stationed at the 24th Evacuation Hospital in Long Binh) and later served as a commissioner with the Illinois Agent Orange Study Commission, I found your article on Vietnam of great interest (“The Vietnam Question,” April 19). One of the main differences between the two wars is the nation’s attitude toward those who serve in combat....

Despite recognizing the “fading” presence of the region’s Christians, mainstream media has largely been complicit in reinforcing the systematic erasure of these ancient communities. The Christians of the “Muslim world” take little solace in being portrayed as outsiders in the region they’ve inhabited since before the time of Christianity. Nor are they particularly delighted at their portrayal as a homogenous entity of “Iraqi Christians”—a reductionist mischaracterization of a diverse community that was propounded by Ba’athist and later Kurdish authorities to enforce the assimilation and disappearance of their distinct ethnic and cultural identities....

While Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is now out in the wild for everyone to pick up, the campaign was available a week early for anyone who pre-ordered the game and wanted to rejoin Task Force 141. Capt. Price, Gaz, Laswell, and Farah all returned from the 2019 reboot, while original series staples Ghost and Soap made their debut in the reboot series alongside the returning General Shepherd. It wasn’t without its share of new characters, either, with Mexican Special Forces Colonel Alejandro Vargas front-and-center among the newcomers....

The state-backed Global Times newspaper—in which the ruling Communist Party often airs its more hawkish sentiments—said Monday that the military exercises could be connected to the proposed $2.2 billion U.S.-Taiwan arms deal approved by the State Department last week. Global Times cited China’s defense ministry which said the drills may have involved all five military branches, in what it called “a large scale joint exercise.” The newspaper cited anonymous “military insiders” who suggested the drills “might be tailored as a warning to Taiwan secessionists....

The Fair Play Alliance will use research and lessons learnt from the online gaming community to try and create a set of online behavior standards that are deemed as acceptable. Furthermore, its aim is to identify and come to an understanding of the fundamental issues that cause poor online behavior. Deciding what is acceptable and what is not will be a difficult task though, according to Kimberly Voll, who is Riot’s senior technical designer: “There are a lot of challenges when you’re trying to determine what good behavior looks like—or at least what bad looks like—on a global scale,” Voll says....

A survey published by Navigator on Tuesday found that 57 percent of registered voters think the president is “erratic” in his response to the outbreak of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new strain of coronavirus. But 38 percent said the word did not apply to Trump’s handling of the pandemic and a further 5 percent told pollsters they were unsure. Navigator surveyed 1,014 registered voters across the country between April 29 and May 4....

Soccer fan named Darren Holland has started a petition on Change.org asking EA to put Rapinoe on the cover of FIFA 20. Holland says that the petition came to be after IGN posted a mockup of Rapinoe as the FIFA 20 cover star on its official Twitter account, where it has nearly 400 retweets and more than 2,000 likes. “EA has already done more than FIFA in terms of support” for the women’s game, says the petition maker, as women’s international teams have been in the series since FIFA 16....
