PARIS (AP) — France’s sports minister says her country is not currently thinking about boycotting the soccer World Cup in the United States amid growing tensions related to Donald Trump’s quest to control Greenland. “At the moment we are speaking, there is no desire from the ministry to boycott this major, much-anticipated competition,” sports minister Marina Ferrari told reporters on Tuesday evening. “That said, I am not prejudging what might happen.” Ferrari added that she wants to keep sports separate from politics. “The 2026 World Cup is an extremely important moment for all sports lovers,” she said. With the tournament kicking off…

The good news for the Bruins on Tuesday in Dallas was that their leading goal scorer Morgan Geekie finally snapped his 12-game goal-less streak. The bad news? Everything else that happened. The B’s had their six-game win streak snapped on Tuesday in Dallas — and they left no doubt about it. In one of their worst performances of the season,  the B’s — outshot 37-18 — were dominated by the Stars in every meaningful category and dropped a 6-2 blowout. The B’s took three first-period penalties and were gashed on two of them in the final four minutes of the…

The New England Patriots are one win away from playing in the Super Bowl, and their draft class has played a major role in their success. Second-round pick TreVeyon Henderson and sixth-round pick Andy Borregales were named to the Professional Football Writers of America All-Rookie Team after their stellar rookie campaigns. The team was announced on Tuesday. Henderson and Ashton Jeanty were the two running backs named to the team, while Borregales was the lone kicker. Henderson was a standout in college and fell to the Patriots in the draft. Henderson played in 17 regular-season games, but made just four…

For the third time in the last 13 years, the Denver Broncos will host the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game. But unlike the previous two AFC title game matchups, neither team was expected to be here. The Broncos made the playoffs last season but weren’t expected to be a top contender for the conference crown. The Patriots were expected to be better after back-to-back 4-13 seasons, but no one could have predicted a 14-3 campaign and a potential trip to the Super Bowl. Let’s dive into some of the most interesting storylines surrounding the Patriots-Broncos showdown, which…

Not all heroes wear capes. Tuesday night at TD Garden, it was a Crimson No. 1 and No. 14 instead. Largely fueled by another exceptional showing in net from Duxbury native Ainsley Tuffy (46 saves), Harvard returned to Women’s Beanpot supremacy by beating Boston University in overtime, 2-1, in the tournament final. Freshman Carla McSweeney scored the game-winning goal 1:17 into the extra period, lifting the Crimson (11-10-1) to their first Beanpot title since 2022 and their 16th overall. Northeastern, which was denied a fourth straight title by the Terriers (7-13-3) in a stunning semifinal loss last week, is tied…

Earlier this offseason, we were all a little surprised to hear that the Red Sox were rumored to be interested in catcher J.T. Realmuto. He’s since resigned with the Phillies, but the Sox are reportedly still interested in upgrading at catcher. While the catching position doesn’t feel like a priority given Carlos Narvaez’s successful rookie campaign, the team may simply see upgrading from Connor Wong as low-hanging fruit. Admittedly, though, there isn’t much catching talent out there right now. (Sean McAdam, MassLive)But the catching spot should take a backseat to upgrading the infield. As of today, it looks like Marcelo…
