Borussia Dortmund have not been at their best in the Bundesliga this season and face an uphill battle to finish in the top four of the league table. The Ruhr Valley outfit suffered a 2-1 defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt over the weekend and have plenty of work to do ahead of this match. Manchester City, on the other hand, have been impressive in the Premier League and are the favourites to win the title this season....

It was a total team effort in Game 4 but Utah’s defense was a key factor in their victory. For most of the series, the Jazz have looked essentially lost on defense. The Mavs’ small ball lineups would just routinely cook the perimeter defenders of the Jazz, getting buckets at the rim on drive after drive. That wasn’t the case in Game 4.

Green Bay is looking to get off of a mini slide in which they’ve lost two of their last three games, a 13-7 loss to the Chiefs and 34-31 loss in a shootout with the Vikings. While Aaron Rodgers looked much more like himself last week against the Vikings than he did in the Packers’ win against the Seahawks, it was a rare showing for the defense, which looked utterly hapless against Kirk Cousins and the Vikings....

The Packers (5-1) recovered from their Week 6 blowout to Tampa Bay by beating Houston handedly last Week. After throwing his first two interceptions of the season, Aaron Rodgers hopped right back on the MVP train with a 283-yard, four-touchdown performance against the Texans. Green Bay has played clean and scored a lot of points this season, scoring at least 30 points in five of their six games. The Packers are the first team in NFL history to have at least 180 points and two or fewer turnovers through a team’s first six games....

Fourth-seeded Tennessee hosts fifth-seeded Baltimore at 1:05 p.m. ET on ESPN, ABC and more in an ESPN Megacast on Sunday. It’s a rematch of last year’s divisional game between the squads in which the Titans upset top-seeded Baltimore. As it was last year, it’ll again shape up as a matchup between Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and Titans running back Derrick Henry. Henry just became the eighth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season, while Jackson has looked like his 2019 MVP self down the stretch....

That is also true of the SEC, a conference that features six teams ranked in the latest College Football Playoff rankings in No. 1 Georgia, No. 2 Alabama, No. 11 Texas A&M, No. 15 Ole Miss, No. 17 Auburn and No. 25 Arkansas. While the SEC East division is already wrapped up (the Bulldogs clinched the division in Week 9), the West is still up for grabs should the Aggies win out and Alabama drop one of its two remaining conference games to the Razorbacks or Tigers....

Much has been made of the improvement of the Chiefs defense, but last Thursday the offense showed it can still hang in a high-scoring affair. Kansas City managed to win 34-28 in an overtime thriller over the Los Angeles Chargers that saw Patrick Mahomes hang over 400 yards on the Chargers defense. The win put the Chiefs in the driver’s seat of the AFC and was their seventh in a row, making the “has the league figured out Mahomes” talk feel like a distant memory....

The Steelers appear to be putting something together, having won their last four games. They’re a half-game behind the Ravens in a tightly knotted AFC North. Najee Harris has emerged as a player teams have to account for, even if his consistency as an every-down back isn’t there just yet. However, the offense will be running with a new quarterback after Ben Roethlisberger was added to the COVID-19 list late Saturday night and ruled out for the game....

The bad news — and it’s only bad news for those who don’t get NFL Network — is only one channel will show the workouts. NFL Network (and NFL Digital Media) will present multi-platform coverage of the NFL Combine for the 16th year in a row. For the first time ever, though, the NFL Combine schedule will push the on-field workouts into and through prime time, a change that was made to satisfy the league’s perpetual thirst for TV viewers and ratings....

Defending heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic (19-3, 15 KOs) and former champion Daniel Cormier (22-1-2, 10 KOs) will determine once and for all at UFC 252 who is the better fighter between them. If their trilogy match is anything like their previous bouts, both of which ended in knockouts, then fight fans are in for quite a spectacle on Saturday. Will Miocic finally defend his title against Cormier after winning his belt back at UFC 241, or will the challenger once again wrest control of the heavyweight belt?...

Emmett turned pro in 2011. After competing for West Coast FC, Emmett joined the UFC in 2016....

Given the district’s pattern of electing Democratic local officials, some Republican lawmakers have pushed back against legislation that would allow the District of Columbia to become a state, noting that statehood would likely mean additional Democrats in the House and Senate. Although the 23rd Amendment gives the district three Electoral College representatives—equivalent to those allocated to seven states with the country’s smallest populations—to vote on its behalf during presidential elections, D....

“If you’ve got even a five percent chance to win the title — and that group includes a very small number of teams every year — you’ve gotta be focused all on winning the title,” Morey told Lowe. The Five Percent rule lays at the heart of the current Ben Simmons trade debate. Does Morey waste a year of Joel Embiid’s prime and hold onto Simmons if a great deal isn’t out there, or does he prioritize the now and get whatever he can?...

Season of the Seraph has primarily focused on rebuilding Rasputin - the Warmind believed to be made to protect humanity from all possible threats. Within the Season, the forces of the Hive God of War, Xivu Arath, along with Eramis, Kell of Darkness, have been attempting to possess the subminds of Rasputin for its knowledge and technological power.

The TikTok video, which was shared by user @lcxvy on Monday, features a compilation of undated clips of the star, where she appears to use the word “c***k”—a slur against people of Chinese descent. Eilish, 19, is also seen appearing to use a mock Asian accent, while a caption purports that her musician brother Finneas “calls her out for using a blaccent”—or speaking African-American Vernacular English. No other context was added to the brief video, which has already been viewed thousands of times on the video-sharing platform, as well as shared on Twitter....

Fox News reported that authorities recovered the assault rifle from 23-year-old Khalid Mehdiyev, who was initially pulled over in his car by the police for ignoring a stop sign. Authorities allege that Khalid Mehdiyev may be an operative of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which regards Masih Alinejad as a dissident, as she has accused the Iranian government of harassment. She garnered controversy for her journalism and protest campaigns....

What Does CC Mean? CC stands for Carbon Copy. This acronym is a leftover one from back when people used to more frequently send physical mail. When somebody wanted to send multiple copies of the same letter to more than one person, they would add carbon paper between a stack of letters in order to copy what they had written onto the pieces of paper beneath. This process was known as carbon copying, as the carbon paper copied what was written onto the papers below....

The state’s new election laws will include stricter voter ID requirements for voting by mail, create limits on who can pick up and return a voter’s ballot at drop boxes and ban election officials from using private funding to pay for elections. “Me signing this bill says: Florida, your vote counts, your vote is going to be cast with integrity and transparency and this is a great place for democracy,” DeSantis said as he signed the bill during an appearance on Fox & Friends....
