Pogacar rode to glory in the 2020 and 2021 editions and he he would have joined Louison Bobet, Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx and Miguel Indurain in a select group by standing on top of the podium on the Champs-Elysees this time around. Ultimately, he will have to settle for second. Lance Armstrong was once among that exclusive club before being stripped of his seven consecutive Tours de France between 1999 and 2005 for doping offences....

The prolific Gabon striker opened the scoring in the Revierderby, which finished 1-1, but his celebration angered Dortmund’s kit sponsor Puma. CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke vowed to hold a “difficult” conversation with Aubameyang over the incident and Schmelzer also warned his team-mate about his responsibilities. “We already thought he would come up with something for the derby,” Schmelzer told Sky. “But what he did was stupid. None of the players knew that was coming....

A 30-year study of 100,000 people found the lowest mortality rates were among those who exercised 150 to 600 minutes a week. The findings were published in the American Heart Association’s (AHA) journal Circulation. Reductions were highest for those who performed two to four times the current advised amount—up to 23 and 31 percent for vigorous and moderate physical activity. Dr. Dong Hoon Lee of Harvard’s School of Public Health said: “The potential impact of physical activity on health is great, yet it remains unclear whether engaging in high levels of prolonged, vigorous or moderate intensity physical activity above the recommended levels provides any additional benefits or harmful effects on cardiovascular health....

The move comes a day after Fister, 31, allowed seven earned runs in just two innings against the Padres. He is 2-2 with a 4.31 ERA in seven starts and 39 2/3 innings this season.

Other national media figures aren’t going to let the Fox Sports Radio host skate on that. At the heart of Gottlieb’s suspicion is Beltre’s late-career production, which included career hit No. 3,000 on Sunday. Armed with little more than the Clay Travis-esque “I’m just asking the question,” Gottlieb on Tuesday loosely tied Beltre to the dozens of failed PED tests by players from the Dominican Republic, in the majors and the minors (Beltre, 38, is the first Dominican player in baseball history to reach 3,000 hits)....

The 40-year-old quarterback came out of retirement and inked a one-year deal with Philadelphia this weekend after backups Nate Sudfeld and Cody Kessler suffered injuries in the preseason. Pederson discussed the team’s decision to add the 16-year veteran when he met with reporters Sunday. “It kind of falls in line with not only the injury situation, but also the fact that when we have an opportunity to add a little value, add a little depth, add a little competition to that spot, a veteran guy who has been around the league,” Pederson said....

Well, it wasn’t to be, was it? In a soap opera where the ending was not a question of if, but when, Jose Mourinho has been sacked by Chelsea’s hierarchy. And he won’t be tugging the heartstrings of anybody, this time around. Gone are the days when his proteges swore by the man. Gone are the days when his arrogance was more swagger and less denial. The Premier League’s very own Colonel Kurtz had been crawling on the razor’s edge for far too long, and now, he’s fallen....

A total of 56 Children’s Hospital Los Angeles patients, including those treated for cancer, were affected when a temperature sensor in a freezer failed according to a statement. The institution admitted safeguards in place “were insufficient.” The situation worsened when the letters alerting families were mistakenly sent to the children rather than their parents. Children’s Hospital Los Angeles apologized for “any distress or confusion that this has caused our patients and their families....

The unusual incident happened at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas during UFC 269. Among the attendees was none other than star streamer Dr. Disrespect. During a break in the action, the streamer took the opportunity to grab a drink. However, he wasn’t prepared for what happened next.

It’s one thing to have ideas, but people seem to value what Dr Disrespect has to say. Shortly after leveling complaints at YouTube over its lack of features, YouTube brought Dr Disrespect in to talk about improving the site. The opinions and critiques Dr Disrespect shares to his 3 million followers about Call of Duty have undoubtedly had an impact too. After all, before becoming the wraparound sunglasses-sporting internet celebrity he is today, Herschel “Guy” Beahm IV was a multiplayer level designer on Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare....

“I would agree that he was a sleeper to start this season, maybe,” one league scout told SN. “He is not a sleeper anymore.” MORE: Big men dominate 2015 mock draft | Kobe on college basketball | 30 photo for LeBron’s 30th That is, in part, because the Huskies got off to an 11-0 start before dropping their last three, including a shocker at home against Stony Brook.

Every week audiences tuned in to WandaVision hoping to learn more about the mysteries behind the time-jumping sitcom premise. One of the series highlights was manipulative Salem witch Agatha Harkness, played brilliantly by Kathryn Hahn. The character instantly became a fan favorite, sparking WandaVision fan theories, memes, re-edits, and renditions of her now-famous musical number. Amongst those fans is the famed Drag Queen and RuPaul’s Drag Race contestant Jackie Cox, who has gone through the efforts of recreating Agatha’s different looks throughout the show....

To Republican Missouri State Representative Ben Baker, the Parental Oversight of Public Libraries Act is a matter of safety. “The main thing is, I want to be able to take my kids to a library and make sure they’re in a safe environment, and that they’re not gonna be exposed to something that is objectionable material,” said Baker to KOAM-TV. “Unfortunately, there are some libraries in the state of Missouri that have done this....

Do you like swords? Do you like to fight Dragons and Demons? Do you like to hear people talk throughout the duration of these things? Alright fantasy nerds, strap in, it’s going to be a nice long ride! Bioware is back to grace us with another fine example of rich storytelling, deep adventure and a good helping of fairly strong gameplay to go along with it. Continue after the jump to read Game Rant’s review of Dragon Age: Origins....

To be clear, this isn’t happening as Gaider calls it the “hypothetical of hypotheticals.” However, the development complexities are well-known, and cut ideas from Dragon Age 2 always prove to be really interesting to learn about. That’s exactly what Gaider discusses in his “Snyder Cut” of the game, with many of these ideas simply sounding like the best version of the game possible. It should be noted that Gaider has since left BioWare, so while Dragon Age 4 is mentioned several times here, Gaider is not involved....

It seems very likely that Dragon Age 4 will follow both the Dread Wolf plotline and a renewed war between the human kingdoms of Thedas and the Qunari of Par Vollen. Tensions with the Qunari have escalated over the games so far, but Dragon Age: Inquisition and lore from BioWare make it seem very likely that the stalemate between the Qunari and both the southern and northern nations of Thedas is all but over....
