Simone Souza stood outside Flamengo’s training ground, hoping to be let in. She just wanted to go into the car park, light a candle and say a prayer. A year before, on the night of 8 February 2019, her 15-year-old nephew Jorge Eduardo and nine of his friends were burned to death in that very spot when a fire engulfed the makeshift dormitories the club had used to house their youth team.
On the day of the anniversary, the Flamengo players and coaching staff paid their own tribute to the boys at the training ground. Simone merely wished to do the same. But her request was denied. Security barred her and the relatives of another victim, forcing them to kneel in prayer at the side of the road. This stunningly insensitive decision – “humili…

Patriots QB Tom Brady was asked for his thoughts on former teammate Wes Welker, who's about to start serving a four-game suspension for amphetamine use. (One report claimed Welker took adulterated molly at the Kentucky Derby; Welker has denied it.) "I don't have a lot of thoughts or comments on that. That's Wes' situation, and their team. Obviously, I've got plenty to worry about with this week and this team. As a friend, you always hope the best. But this is not friend time, it's opponent time, and my focus is on the Dolphins." Brady, who was at the Kentucky Derby when Welker supposedly rolled, was asked if he saw Welker take anything that day. That drew a laugh and a no-comment. [ Boston Herald] …
These sides will be hoping to kick on after challenging for Champions League qualification last season. They almost upset the established order – Leicester only missed out on the final day – and both have made winning starts to the new campaign. West Ham mounted a strong comeback at Newcastle after a poor first half and Leicester, who hope to have James Maddison available, beat Wolves thanks to a goal from the evergreen Jamie Vardy. It should be a tight game. Jacob Steinberg

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg says he wishes that Antonio Conte had been more open and “precise” in his communication with the Tottenham squad as he reflected on the manager’s outburst which has made his position untenable and set the wheels in motion for his sacking.
Conte laid into the players after Saturday’s 3-3 draw at Southampton, calling them “selfish” and questioning their mentality, the frustrations that have simmered during an erratic season boiling over in spectacular fashion. Spurs have started to check the market for Conte’s successor and are making plans for his immediate departure. Previously, he had been expected to leave at the end of the season upon the expiry of his contract.

There are places I’ll remember, all my life though some have changed. Some forever, not for better, some have gone and some remain. Sometimes it is difficult to start a new blog, but for some reason the lyrics of Lennon and McCartney sprung to mind when choosing to look back at Aberdeen winning the 1984-85 Scottish Premier Division.
At the time, Aberdeen’s fourth top flight title seemed to be the continuation of a new chapter in Scottish football. Never before had the championship remained out of the clutches of the Old Firm for three consecutive seasons. Between 1983 and 1985, the New Firm of Dundee United and Aberdeen had changed the footballing landscape.

Ancient baseball man Bartolo Colón started the 2017 baseball season with the Atlanta Braves, where he accrued a nightmarish 8.14 ERA in 10 starts before being released on July 4. It looked like the end for the beloved 44-year-old blobfish, even after an offseason spent toning his, umm, frame like a true champion. Minnesota took a flier on Colón on July 7, and he’s made four starts for the Twins since, with a much more workable (but still not real great) 5.18 ERA over 24 innings of work. Last night he took the mound against the Texas Rangers and looked, for one night, like his old, less-old self, surviving a rough first inning to scatter nine hits and a walk and earn himself a complete game. In the doing, he became the oldest pitcher to record a complete game win since oldest-man …
Some people are fans of the Kansas City Chiefs. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Kansas City Chiefs. This 2014 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group.
Your team: Kansas City Chiefs.
Your 2013 record: 11-5. No franchise in football is better at rendering a successful regular season utterly pointless than the Chiefs. Remember: this team was coming off a 2-14 season in which the GM and coach witnessed one of the players commit suicide at the team facility (I believe Roger Goodell retroactively suspended Jovan Belcher for half a game after the fact). So going 11-5 without incident sounds like a fantastic leap forward, right? Well, see … Look, if you're a Chiefs fan, you should emotionally prepare yourself before we rehash all of this:
