By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Egypt and Iran, two Middle East nations that target gays and lesbians, have complained to FIFA over a World Cup soccer match in Seattle that is planned to celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride. Leaders in the nation’s soccer federations publicly rebuked the idea of playing the match June 26 at Seattle Stadium, which local organizers say will include a “once-in-a-lifetime moment to showcase and celebrate LGBTQIA+ communities in Washington.” In Egypt, the soccer federation issued a statement late Tuesday saying it sent a letter to FIFA “categorically rejecting any activities related…

Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow went down swinging in his attempt to sign Phillies designated hitter Kyle Schwarber, who returned to Philadelphia for five years and $150 million. But Breslow still has a chance to knock the ball out of the park. The Boston Globe’s Pete Abraham reports it’s possible the Red Sox will re-sign third baseman Alex Bregman AND land New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso in free agency. “The Sox are focused on bringing back free agent third baseman Alex Bregman. That’s their priority according to sources in and out of the organization,” Abraham…

If, like me, you’re a long-time Cranmore skier who hasn’t been there in a minute, the new arrival experience can be somewhat of a shock and – at first – a concern. After all, the base area has changed in just about every way. Where smaller, older buildings once stood and the mountain scene stretched out before you in an old-school kind of way, you now arrive at beautiful, tall and spiffy new buildings with housing, some retail and a big new base lodge, but with less view of the hill itself. You wonder: Has my lovely little mountain taken…
Could Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum return sooner than expected from his devastating Achilles injury? On Tuesday, Tatum posted videos to his Instagram story of himself looking spry on the court. His Achilles didn’t seem to bother him while he played 1-on-1 at the Auerbach Center. You can watch the video below: Extended clips of Jayson Tatum playing 1v1. There is still 10 weeks until the Celtics play their first game out of the all star break. pic.twitter.com/GFtJWPq7m3— Jake Issenberg (@jakeissenberg) December 9, 2025 Tatum was expected to miss most — if not all — of the 2025-26 NBA season…

There was a chance the Celtics were going to have a tough season with Jayson Tatum recovering from a torn Achilles. However, Boston is on a five-game winning streak and is currently in third place in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics are likely to be out of the running for the top picks in the 2026 NBA Draft due to their strong performance. However, Boston could still land a solid player in the later stages of the first round. Bleacher Report’s Jonathan Wasserman released an early mock draft on Tuesday, predicting Boston would select Duke Center Patrick Ngongba II with…
The Bruins got one of their stars back on Tuesday, but the team’s grinders delivered them their third straight victory. After the B’s shook off a messy first period, Mark Kastelic and Fraser Minten each scored a pair of goals to lead the B’s to their second win over former coach Jim Montgomery’s Blues, 5-2, in St. Louis. Jeremy Swayman made 24 saves for the win and Sean Kuraly had a pair of helpers. The B’s lost a one-goal lead early in the third period but then scored the next three goals to earn the two points to start their…
Back in January 2024, I said — roughly 218 times to anyone who would listen, up to and including strangers in line at CVS — that there was nothing Chris Sale could do with the Atlanta Braves that would make me think the trade that sent him to Atlanta for Vaughn Grissom was a bad deal. Sale was a black cloud hovering over the entire organization, I said. The Red Sox needed to stop planning their rotation around him, I said. He was almost certainly done as an effective starting pitcher and the Red Sox were lucky to not only…
ORLANDO, Fla. – Kyle Schwarber’s decision to return to the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday morning may have stunned many, but not Alex Cora. “I had a pretty good idea that was going to be the route,” the Boston Red Sox manager said during his MLB Winter Meetings media availability, barely two hours after the first reports of Schwarber’s new five-year, $150 million deal. “Talking to Dave (Dombrowski) throughout the season, I don’t know if (the deal’s) official or not, but he knew that he was a huge part of what they were trying to accomplish, and moving forward,” Cora continued.…
