Each year, the National Football League gives teams playing in the Super Bowl an allowance of $5,000 for each impeccably crafted, diamond-encrusted champion ring.

For 150 rings, the cost comes to $750,000. The teams foot the bill for going over-budget.

But for the victors, the value of the ring is beyond money.

"It isn't just diamond and gold," Jerry Kramer, a former Green Bay Packer player who won the first Super Bowl in 1966, told ESPN. "It's a collection... Читать дальше...

The United States said Sunday it has not ruled out sanctions on Venezuelan oil as it turns the screw on President Nicolas Maduro, but is wary of hurting the country's people.

Two national sporting bodies walked into 2018.

One looked ahead, beyond this year, and the other revisited the ghosts of 2017 – and maybe even before that – as they tried to make a very public break-up as private as possible.

If you were still unsure about it, South African cricket is already looking ahead to the future.

If the selections for the current one-day series against India were not clear enough, the choice of stand-in captain for the rest of the series has confirmed it. Читать дальше...

ASTORIA, Ore. (AP) — As crabbers crowd the mouth of the Columbia River and jockey for their catch, the Coast Guard soars above, ensuring some order to the fray. On some days during crab season, a four-member Coast Guard crew flies a C-27 plane north from Air Station Sacramento to help patrol crab boats off the Oregon and Washington state coasts. The plane flew along the coast Thursday for more than two hours, as far south as Oceanside and up north to Grays Harbor, a span of over 100 miles. The crew... Читать дальше...

Replay don’t lie. Unsurprisingly, the biggest talking point coming out of Tottenham Hotspur’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool at Anfield was the decision by match official Jonathan Moss to award a penalty kick in the final minute of extra time to Spurs. Tottenham’s Erik Lamela was kicked in the legs and brought down by Liverpool’s Virgil Van Dijk, the infraction was spotted by Moss’s linesman, and after a conversation with his officiating staff Moss pointed to the spot. Harry Kane stepped up and buried the ball with the last kick of the game... Читать дальше...

Villa eye-up automatic promotion, Birmingham surge to safety and Leeds suffer a rout.

"Sex and the City" actress Kim Cattrall has appealed to her fans to help find her younger brother who has been missing from his home in Canada's Alberta province for five days.

"I thought Birmingham were embarrassing for the full 90. I'm sure they have gone home thinking what a great result which of course on paper it was but they're one of the worst teams I've seen this season and we've seen a few but add to that their overall "gamesmanship" and their attitude, then I really hope they do collapse and get relegated - a proper Steve Cotterill team of anti football. You might say I didn't like what I saw and it's not just sour grapes"

That's us sorted then.......!

It’s Super Bowl Sunday, crusaders!

There was a time when this unofficial American holiday was universally on uncontroversially celebrated in all of its athletic, voyeuristic glory. That’s not to say that the tradition is gone, it just comes with a lot more baggage.

Much like just about everything else in life, tonight’s game does not come without its own set of political side plots…and I’m not just talking about the fan battle between Philadelphia and Boston…

Of course, for those of us without a horse in the race... Читать дальше...
