    The NFL Finally Weighs In on the Condition of the Field in Rio
    The NFL is preparing to host its first game in Rio de Janeiro, but the condition of the field at the legendary Maracanã Stadium has recently raised concerns.
    Despite criticism from some soccer players, the league now says it has no concerns about the field that will host the Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
    The field has been the subject of much discussion in recent days. Flamengo goalkeeper Agustín Rossi, in particular, described a surface with several bumps and

    Here’s why Kreider didn’t “steal” Slaf’s spot on the first line
    Chris Kreider didn’t steal Juraj Slafkovsky’s spot on the Canadiens’ top line.
    Because, in reality… the Habs had planned to move Slaf down to the second line. The problem?
    Before acquiring Kreider, Martin St-Louis didn't necessarily have the luxury of keeping the tall Slovak alongside Ivan Demidov.
    The goal, in fact, is to allow Slaf to control the puck more—something he excels at on the ice. Playing with Suzuki and Caufield, his role is different: he's expected to

    The Philadelphia Eagles have decided to bring Zach Ertz back into the organization as Dallas Goedert is set to miss time due to a knee injury.
    The 35-year-old veteran will initially join the practice squad, with the possibility of quickly moving up to the active roster.
    This decision comes on the heels of Philadelphia's victory over the Tennessee Titans. Goedert injured his knee during the game, and reports indicate he is expected to miss several weeks due to a sprained medial collateral ligamen

    And, of course, his comments made waves in Montreal. That was to be expected, let's face it…

    Will Cole Caufield score 50 goals again? Will Nick Suzuki reach the 100-point mark again? Will the Canadiens earn more points than last season? Will they have a better playoff run? I'm not ready to bet $1,000 on any of those possibilities. So I'm tempted to say &

    Peralta had a rough first half of the season, and so did the Mets. That's why, as a rental player, he was sent to the Rays.

    But everyone knows the situation: Kent Hughes doesn't want a three-way race to start the season, and one of them will have to be cut from the 23-man roster next week.
    And unless an injury changes the situation, it won't be Jakub Dobes who gets the boot.
