It’s been 345 days since Canada took the field due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Canadians’ last match was back on March 10, when the squad battled back and drew 2-2 with Brazil. COVID-19 is continuing to impact the team as a number of players were not released by their French clubs due to mandated quarantines when they return. Among the players were Kadeisha Buchanan (Olympique) and Jordyn Huitema and Ashley Lawrence (both PSG)....

Memphis, which led by as many as 55 points in Game 5, staved off elimination to play another day. That day will come on Friday when the Grizzlies head back to San Francisco to meet the Warriors for Game 6. MORE: Where Grizzlies’ rout of Warriors stands in largest playoff margins of victory After missing the NBA Playoffs in each of the last two years, Golden State has an opportunity to advance back to the Western Conference Finals, a stage on which the franchise is 8-3 since moving to California in 1962, including five straight trips to the NBA Finals from 2015-19....

What Comes After Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker? What We Know There are many announced Star Wars projects ahead, but most of them are coming to TV.

During the Ducks’ 2-1 overtime win over the Coyotes on Jan. 28, a scuffle ensued in the second period after a collision along the wall. Zegras and Stetcher were not the two that initially got into it, but as the scrum ensued, Stetcher became visibly upset at something Zegras said and went after him. Four penalties were handed out as a result of the incident. Coyotes forward Barrett Hayton received a two-minute minor for roughing, Ducks forward Adam Henrique got a two-minute minor for high-sticking and Zegras was handed two minutes for roughing, as well as a 10-minute misconduct penalty....

With this in mind, you can choose from five difficulty modes at the beginning of the game to customize just how easy or hard the game will be for you. It’s the most freedom gamers have had to do so by far since the first God of War entry in the reboot saga. But with different options available, which one is the best for you? We’ve got all the answers and more here....

TikTok is no stranger to birthing out-there slang and trends that can miff even the best of us. We’re still not completely sure what “cheugy” truly means, to be honest. With new language coming and going from the app all the time, it can be hard to keep up. Many users will have seen the phrases “story time?” and “crop?” invading the comments of popular videos, and possibly even their own....

High Cholesterol and Heart Disease People who have high cholesterol have a much higher risk of developing heart disease than people with normal cholesterol levels.

People with high cholesterol—with or without coronary heart disease—are more likely to die from heart disease than those who have a cholesterol level below 200....

For the Buccaneers, a win would mean clinching the NFC South for the first time in over 10 years. At this point that feels like a formality, and the Buccaneers have been rolling since dropping two straight to the Saints and Washington Football Team. At 9-3 and third in the NFC behind the Cardinals and Packers, they’re firmly in the “haves” column after some doubt was cast on that at 6-3....

McGregor (22-4) first met Poirier (26-6-1) in the Octagon in 2014, securing a first-round TKO to improve his record to 16-2 at the time. That said, this will be McGregor’s first fight in over a year after securing a TKO victory over Donald Cerrone on Jan. 18, 2020. Prior to that, his last UFC match came two years earlier: a defeat via submission to Khabib Nurmagomedov in October 2018. Will that relative time off have any effect on the fight?...

The Browns (6-3) are one of five teams tied for three AFC Wild Card spots following their 10-7 win over Houston. It was the second straight Cleveland game marred by a strong wind, limiting Baker Mayfield to just a combined 255 passing yards in the games against Vegas and the Texans. Nick Chubb was a warm welcome back for the offense in Week 10 after missing five weeks due to injury....

It’s not only heartbreaking that the shortened Formula 1 season comes to an end this Sunday, but it’s heartbreaking for George Russell: His brief but magnificent brush with greatness landed him in the points — the first of his F1 career — but away from the podium where he was seemingly destined to be. A tire puncture and chaotic Mercedes pit stop ended Russell’s chance at glory and one of the best sports stories of the year....

Just don’t tell anyone one watching the game from Kyle Field that. While it’s true the Tigers have already secured their berth in the SEC Championship Game against top-ranked Georgia and are likely a non-factor in the College Football Playoff, a loss to the Aggies could be devastating to LSU’s hopes for a quality bowl bid, perhaps even in the New Year’s Day 6. Besides, history suggests Brian Kelly and Co....

As for Saturday night’s Federated Auto Parts 400 at Richmond Raceway, the Cup Series’ second of two visits to the track this year and the second race of the 2019 playoffs, the channel that will broadcast the race is NBCSN.

The Spartans, which finished third in the Big Ten East division, are making their first New Year’s bowl appearance under coach Mel Tucker, who is in his second season with the team. Michigan State ranked as high as No. 3 in the College Football Playoff poll but suffered late-season losses to Purdue and Ohio State, dropping it out of the national championship race. MORE: Why Kenny Pickett, Kenneth Walker aren’t playing in the 2021 Peach Bowl...

The Aggies (8-1) spent much of the final weeks of the regular season hoping and praying that one of the four teams ranked ahead of them would falter, but it was all for nothing as Texas A&M spent each of the five Playoff rankings affixed to the fifth position. The Orange Bowl will likely be Kellen Mond’s final game of his collegiate career in which he finished as the program’s all-time leader in career total offense, passing yards, passing touchdowns, completions and pass attempts....

Oh, yeah, and then there will be 30 people competing on Coney Island to see who can scarf down hot dogs the fastest. The Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest is back in Brooklyn across the street from the iconic Nathan’s Famous restaurant.

Rogan stated that Punk’s lack of athleticism prevented him from being successful in the UFC where the fights were not scripted like they were in WWE. The 55-year-old further elaborated that the pro-wrestler’s UFC 228 foe Mike Jackson could have finished Punk any time if he wanted to: Watch Rogan talk about CM Punk below: The UFC commentator continued his criticism of Punk during episode #1185 of JRE in October 2018....
