His contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers expired at the conclusion of the NFL season, so his future had been a big question of the offseason. Many speculated on what he would do next as all options appeared to be on the table. Apparently, continuing to play football is not in his plans. Brady made the announcement himself by posting a video to his social media accounts. It understandably received a ton of reactions from many around the NFL, including fans, players and coaches....

Two of those players are also freshmen forwards in Kentucky's Julius Randle and Duke's Jabari Parker, with both being projected by DraftExpress.com as top-seven lottery picks. Randle is the No. 2 pick, Parker No. 7. Multiple scouts corroborate Randle's position right behind Wiggins. Playing at Prestonwood Christian Academy in Plano, Texas, Randle, who committed to Big Blue Nation in March, led his squad to three 5A state titles in four seasons....

[Update: Pokemon White 2 & Pokemon Black 2 have been officially announced!] Even after all these years, Pokemon is still very much alive and kicking. The last big adventure games, Pokemon Black and White, are just under a year old here in North America but I think it’s safe to say that we’re ready for another installment. It looks like fans are going to get their wish too - because a big Pokemon announcement is set to hit this weekend....

Jurassic World: Evolution 2 is much like the first, in that it’s a management simulator title that gives fans of the classic movies the chance to run their own park. Players’ decisions are deciding factors between making it a success or releasing their own chaos upon parkgoers. With titles like these, it’s easy to fall into the hole of simply being Jurassic Park in name while being more of the same in the genre, but the Jurassic World: Evolution management games set themselves apart with dynamic dinosaur behaviors and features such as the rangers and the ACU....

Liverpool won 1-0 against Wolves in the FA Cup on Tuesday thanks to Harvey Elliot’s first-half goal, securing a place in the fourth round of the tournament. The Merseyside outfit’s performance was a sight for sore eyes for Reds fans as Liverpool are ninth in the Premier League table amid poor form. Following the encounter, Klopp said (via This is Anfield): Speaking on the reported Reds’ targets, he added:...

It is too perfect. Chief Seattle did give a speech in 1854, but he never said “The earth is our mother.” He never said “I have seen a thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairie, left by the white man who shot them from a passing train.” The chief lived in the Pacific Northwest. He never saw a buffalo. Those oh-so-quotable quotes were written by a screenwriter named Ted Perry for “Home,” a 1972 film about ecology....

In the memo to law enforcement agencies and U.S. attorneys this week, Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen said authorities may encounter criminal activity related to the coronavirus pandemic ranging from “malicious hoaxes to threats targeting specific individual or the general public.” Because the coronavirus appears to meet the statutory definition of a ‘biological agent,’ the “purposeful exposure and infection of others with COVID-19” could implicate the country’s terrorism-related statutes, Rosen said in the memo....

We filed a case against the holding company TGS ASA , responsible for bringing the 2,750 metric tons of highly explosive ammonium nitrate aboard the Rhosus, to the Port of Beirut in 2013. It was the stockpile that would detonate some nearly seven years later, a colossal explosion that would take the lives of over 220 people, including my 2-year-old son. It’s been almost two years since I was sitting with Isaac as he was eating dinner in his high chair....

How, then, to explain the influence that even his most ardent conservative critics conceded was of unparalleled proportions? Frankly, the tale of Justice Brennan is far less exciting than the mythical image which survived right up to his death last week at the age of 91. His influence came from his ability to articulate a consistent, forceful approach to the Constitution for a sustained period of time - 34 years, making him the sixth longest-tenured justice in history....

The significance of the issue–and the enormity of the shift in expert opinion–was underscored a day later. The U.S. Sentencing Commission took the unprecedented step of announcing, unanimously, that nearly 20,000 federal inmates convicted of crack possession could apply for (relatively small) reductions in sentences. “In this business, you don’t get too many good days … Now, two in a row,” said Marc Mauer of the Sentencing Project, a Washington-based organization that tracks criminal-justice trends....

The 82-year-old, who is considered a member of the Supreme Court’s liberal wing, gave an interview to CNN on Wednesday and appeared to dispel the idea that he would leave soon. Asked whether he had decided when he would retire, he simply answered: “No.” However, he did highlight the issues that would factor into his eventual decision. “Primarily, of course, health,” Breyer said. “Second, the court.” The justice’s remarks are expected to come as a blow to the progressives who have urged him to step down amid concerns that if he were to die during a future Republican administration, the court’s conservative majority would be strengthened....

The “freakishly good looking” 30-year-old was a seventh-round pick of the Seahawks in 2008. The Ravens were his fifth team in nine years, but he was a Pro Bowler in 2014 — his first season in Baltimore. Forsett ran for 1,266 yards and eight touchdowns that season, nearly doubling the highest production he has had in any of his other NFL seasons.

Trump suggested that the four progressive women, all American citizens and three of whom were born in the country, should return to the homes of their ancestors. He has since denied that the tweet is racist and accused the four women of hating America, attempting to recast his attack as about their support of socialism, not race. “I think Canadians, and indeed people around the world, know exactly what I think of those comments,” Trudeau told reporters, according to The Globe and Mail....

Only after the Dodgers clinched their first World Series title since 1988 with a 3-1 win over the Rays did Fox break the news: Turner had received a positive test result for COVID-19 during the game and was immediately removed. That came after his test from the day before had returned an inconclusive result. While Turner was supposed to remain in isolation after his removal from the game, he eventually returned to the field for postgame celebrations, where he took part in photographs, both with his mask on and off....

With the No. 4 pick in hand, they may miss out on the chance to select one of the 2015 NBA Draft’s three transcendent talents: Jahlil Okafor, Karl-Anthony Towns and D’Angelo Russell. But even if none of those three fall into their lap June 25, the Knicks will still be in a position to draft a young star on the rise. And they should choose Justise Winslow.
