Man City 5/1 to win the UCL The Argentina star struck City’s third in a 4-2 Champions League win over Napoli on Wednesday to surpass Eric Brook’s 78-year record of 177 goals for City. Aguero’s achievement cemented his position as a club icon and his landmark was recognised ahead of kick-off against the Gunners, the 29-year-old presented with a replica blue football boot. The former Atletico Madrid striker was also donning snazzy gold footwear to mark his record-breaking goal....

For when the batsmen grew stronger, the boundaries grew shorter, the rules marched towards the willow, the ball was reduced to one corner of stadium, when the might of the winter encompassed every trait, leg spinners dawdled out like the invincible summer, laughed at the façade created and drove home their dominance, again, all over again! Yes, the winter was mighty, but the summer was invincible. Yes, the rules were laughing along with the batsmen, but the leg spinners created their own niche....

Stephen Curry, Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis all put on ugly Christmas sweaters and sang a slow, beat poetry-style rendition with Rashad in a video posted to NBA TV’s Facebook page.

If you’re going to sing a holiday song why not do it like Mike Myers in So I Married An Axe Murderer?...

Red Dead Redemption 2 includes many memorable characters, from Dutch Van Der Linde to John Marsten and, of course, Arthur Morgan. Arthur has become a distinct character despite the fact that he was not present in Red Dead Redemption for reasons that players discover during the epic story of the sequel. RELATED: Red Dead Redemption 2 Clip Is A Reminder Why Players Should Never Underestimate Bears Reddit user TheUncleG_ recently posted an image to the Red Dead Redemption 2 subreddit that shows Arthur Morgan as a Family Guy character....

Amber McCann currently serves as Shirkey’s deputy chief of staff and press secretary but has accepted a role as special projects director at the attorney general’s Office of Public Information and Education. She will begin the new job on March 8. Shirkey, who is Michigan’s Senate majority leader, has faced strong criticism from state Democrats for comments claiming the events of the deadly Capitol riot on January 6 were staged and had nothing to do with supporters of former President Donald Trump....

St. John’s 79-75 win over No. 1 Villanova on Wednesday marks the second top-five opponent the Red Storm have beaten in four days. BRACKET PROJECTION: Big East has two 1 seeds After knocking off then-No. 4 Duke 81-77 on Saturday, the Red Storm (12-13, 1-11 Big East) walked into their conference rivals’ court and beat the Wildcats (22-2, 9-2) for their first win in the Big East this season....

Before Ponsetto was arrested at her home in Piru, California on Thursday, she spoke with Gayle King about the incident, in which she was seen tackling the teenage son of jazz musician Keyon Harrold at a New York City hotel on December 26. Ponsetto falsely accused the teen of stealing her phone before she verbally—then physically—attacked him. Ponsetto was already facing backlash on social media for what some have claimed was the racial profiling of the teen....

Not so much with the 8-1 Rams. What the Saints did to them in the Superdome on Sunday, the 45-35, six-touchdown, 487-yard beatdown that froze football America in its seat … that could not have been fun for anyone who had high expectations for the Rams’ defense. And in retrospect, it’s odd to think that the defensive power moves the Rams made in the offseason were universally considered the final pieces of the puzzle....

FIFPro says a 14-month ban barring the 34-year-old Guerrero from his World Cup debut is “unfair and disproportionate.” The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling on Monday “defies common sense” to damage Guerrero’s career, FIFPro says. CAS judges accepted Guerrero did not intend to consume cocaine metabolites, nor enhanced his performance in a World Cup qualifier last October. Still, the judges applied anti-doping rules requiring a ban of at least one year even when an athlete is not significantly at fault....

“We cannot let those killed in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, die in vain. Likewise for those so seriously wounded,” Trump said in a tweet early Monday morning in the wake of the two attacks. “We can never forget them, and those many who came before them. Republicans and Democrats must come together and get strong background checks,” said the president, before suggesting that lawmakers consider “perhaps marrying…this legislation with desperately needed immigration reform....

RELATED Games To Play If You Like Breath Of The Wild The expansion includes patches and fixes to make the game run a little more smoothly, but the biggest chunks of the DLC are content-related. Nintendo kept some of these a secret, but there were certain additions that players already knew about. Regardless, all of it is worth checking out for fans of the Legend of Zelda series. Warning: spoilers ahead!...

RELATED: Things We Loved About Age Of Empires 4 And Things We Don’t Each faction in Age of Empires 4 has its own needs on resources. For example, Delhi Sultanate can easily play without spending much Gold. But for most Civilizations, Gold is the most crucial commodity for their growth. Inability to manage and farm Gold can lead to easy loss. Players can adopt multiple methods to build their Golden Empire....

Little was revealed about Age of Empires 4 beyond its developer and its reveal trailer, which lacked gameplay. The trailer features a narrator giving a semi-profound speech about time and civilization’s path through history. Several cultures and societies were briefly shown, from the Japanese shogunate to the Roman empire, implying a wide range of time-frames and civilizations to be included in the game. The trailer’s description describes Age of Empires 4 as a “battle through history,” a theme well known to Age of Empires fans....

Age of Mythology’s unique gameplay feature is its inclusion of important deities. All the deities offer unique units, technologies, bonuses, and a one-time special ability called “God power” that helps the player out by either benefiting them or being a detriment to their enemies. Each culture has its own set of gods, and its own unique way to gather “favor” from said gods. Favor is needed to research myth technology, build certain Wonders, and train myth units....

And if a trade happens, it’ll be on the Pelicans’ schedule. The five-time All-Star has told the Pelicans that he wants to be traded to a championship-contending team and will not sign an extension with New Orleans, agent Rich Paul told The Associated Press on Monday. ESPN first reported Davis’ demand to be traded to a contender, a request he made last week. It is a move that will resonate around the league, one that will have teams trying to see how they can put together a package good enough to land Davis....

Aguero said last month that he has three months to show what he can do before City “decide if I have a place here or not”. The Blues moved quickly to stress that there was no intention of selling Aguero, and Pep Guardiola has always pointed out that the striker is key to his plans. Pep hails ‘best ever’ Aguero And when questioned about why the Argentine would feel he may be moved on, Guardiola said the striker knows the club want him to stay....

Aguero underwent keyhole surgery on his right knee in Barcelona earlier this week after he failed to fully recover from a heavy challenge by Ashley Young in City’s 3-2 derby defeat against Manchester United. United’s shock 1-0 loss to West Brom last weekend meant City wrapped up the Premier League title with five matches to spare and Aguero, who was named in the PFA Team of the Year, will not feature again at the Etihad Stadium until 2018-19....

“Freedom of speech” is a foreign phrase on the territory of the Russian Federation, and so the concept that different opinions can exist in a healthy, democratic society seems fantastic to most Russians. Thanks to the article’s authors, Russian propagandists are drinking champagne and rejoicing that the U.S. has finally changed its mind about its support for Ukraine. Thankfully, these Russian propagandists, just like the authors themselves, have a mistaken understanding of the current situation....
