Trump has called the impeachment efforts by the Democrat-controlled House a “hoax” and “presidential harassment.” Republicans have a majority in the Senate. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, is coordinating with the White House on Trump’s looming trial. Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, admitted that he is not a fair juror and has already made up his mind in favor of Trump. But 62 percent of Americans polled by Langer Research believe Trump will have a fair trial when impeachment reaches the Senate....

The original story is posted below. In a radio interview translated by Lithuanian journalist Simonas Baranauskas, Houston Rockets center Donatas Motiejunas said that both Dwight Howard and James Harden eat separately from the team and are short with other players, only giving “hi” and “bye” greetings with little fraternization. Howard and Harden are the two superstars for the Rockets, and according to teammate Motiejunas, they act every bit of it in the locker room....

Then the Dallas rookie skipped back several feet behind the arc to hit one over Houston center Clint Capela, followed by a floater in the lane for a tie. After faking a drive that sent Capela scrambling toward the basket, the 19-year-old Slovenian settled behind the 3-point line one more time, connecting again for the 26th lead change between the Mavericks and Rockets. So much for a rough shooting night....

Harris plays defensive line, switching from the offensive side of the ball from last season where it was unlikely that any quarterback was able to see over his towering presence. The photos put up of Harris playing against high school competition is all rather futile, and it’s hard to imagine any player pushing him out of the way. He reportedly doesn’t have much attention from college coaches at the moment, but you’ve got to think someone is going to pick him up, even if it’s in a lower division....

Although the first entry is notorious for its mindless violence and lack of in-depth story, the original idea for Doom was a lot more complex. A design document written by Tom Hall, one of the co-creators of Doom alongside John Carmack and John Romero, showed what id had in-store before Doom would come about. Called the “Doom Bible,” it was evident that the game was supposed to have a lot more substance, such as having more than one playable character, all of whom had detailed backstories, as well as different weapons and different monsters, such as scientists....

The striker is out of contract after one season at Nice, where he scored 15 goals in 23 Ligue 1 appearances to help them to an impressive third-place finish and Champions League qualification.

Ravet was sent off just before the half-hour mark at Schwarzwald-Stadion for a lunging tackle on Schmelzer, referee Benjamin Cortus producing a red card, having initially booked the Freiburg debutant, before the Video Assistant Referee intervened. Despite their numerical advantage, Peter Bosz’s men could not find a way through and laboured to a 0-0 draw. Spurs 13/10 to beat Dortmund Schmelzer was making his first appearance of the season after overcoming another ankle injury, and is set to miss Champions League clashes with Tottenham and Real Madrid, as well as domestic fixtures including a home meeting with RB Leipzig....

Bundesliga clubs have reportedly been given the green light for fans to return to stadiums for the start of the 2020-21 season in Germany amid the coronavirus pandemic. The 2019-20 campaign resumed behind closed doors in May due to COVID-19, which forced the league to be postponed in March.

The most prominent revelation on the Double Dragon IV website is a timeline informing players as to where the co-op brawler fits in the series’ canon. Double Dragon isn’t Dark Souls in any sense, with regards to lore and history, but fans learned to appreciate what few story details were there during the NES era. The timeline is now as follows: Double Dragon Double Dragon III: The Rosetta Stones Double Dragon II: The Revenge Double Dragon IV...

An example? News that a short clip of animation from the company surfaced on the internet - leading to an explosion of fan interest. The video appeared via an automatic Tweet on Double Fine’s Twitter account but was quickly removed soon after it was sent; though, not before others were able to repost the Tweet and the video. The video is very short, only thirty seconds in length, and features no audio whatsoever....

According to the Florida Times-Union, the Jaguars have hired the former Buffalo head coach to be their assistant head coach and offensive line coach. It’s an obvious step down from Buffalo, but Marrone will still get his $4 million 2015 salary from the Bills, thanks to a three-day out clause in his contract he exercised Dec. 31, 2014. Marrone will look to improve a horrendous Jaguars offensive line that allowed a NFL-worst 71 sacks, 13 more than the second-worst Redskins....

The 21-year-old midfielder’s move is subject to the provision of a work permit, something that prevented him from making a single competitive appearance for Premier League champions City. Newly promoted Villa, however, are said to be confident authorities will approve their application.

Call of Duty has a lengthy history with Dr Disrespect that first started when he played the popular FPS games during his early days on YouTube. Going beyond simply playing Call of Duty for content, Dr Disrespect was also hired by Sledgehammer Games in 2011 and became a level designer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare in 2013 which resulted in maps like Ascend, Horizon, and Quarantine. Although some of his Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare maps became fan favorites and Dr Disrespect continues to play Call of Duty on YouTube, he feels Call of Duty developers secretly shadow-banned him as a result of the Twitch situation....

Despite several stud pitchers on the mound tonight (Trevor Bauer, Blake Snell, Luis Castillo, Gerrit Cole, Zack Greinke), we didn’t try to squeeze two into our lineup. We paid up for Walker Buehler, then went a bit cheaper with Julio Teheran. None of the bigger values appealed to us, though certainly at least a few will have big games. Watch ChangeUp, a new MLB live whip-around show on DAZN...

Well, not really. You’re winning now, but you’re just one injury away from your season going down the pooper.

So, if you’re kinda hot right now, don’t rest on your laurels and wait for Week 14. Transfer your hotness to a DraftKings one-week league and win real money right now....

If the Eagles offense manages even a decent day against the Vikings, we’re in trouble. If the Jaguars hold a lead by sundown and aren’t forced to chuck it, we’re definitely in trouble. Our cash and GPP lineups averaged 138 and 143 DraftKings points, respectively, through the first two playoff rounds.
