Earlier this year, Capybara Games announced that the hit Apple Arcade title Grindstone was headed to the Nintendo Switch. Just like the developer’s other games (Below, Super Time Force) Grindstone is a polished title with stylistic art and a great soundtrack. Capybara describes the game as a “puzzle-battle splatter-fest,” and the cartoony enemies and visuals are charming, to say the least.

But it won’t be easy for Sarri’s men. Having been embarrassed by Manchester City earlier on this month with a 6-0 loss, there may be an expectation from their fanbase that they need to get revenge on City. That, as well as Sarri being unable to set his side up defensively, means that Chelsea could be walking into another yet disaster at Wembley. Chelsea’s style of play may get called Sarri ball....

They especially don’t want to give up an eight-time Pro Bowl player in his prime for some “maybes” as general manager Steve Keim put it. Patrick Peterson, who has been with Arizona since the team selected him fifth overall in the 2011 draft, has reportedly garnered interest from multiple NFL teams while he was serving a six-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs. But Keim said Friday that’s not happening. “We are not trading Patrick Peterson,” he said during his weekly appearance on “Doug & Wolf” on Arizona Sports 98....

Zane Gonzalez kicked a 44-yard field goal with 1:41 left, Green Bay’s Mason Crosby missed a 49-yard attempt as time expired and the Cardinals braved wintry conditions to hold on for a 20-17 victory on Sunday. The Packers (4-7-1) announced McCarthy’s dismissal following the postgame availabilities with the media. Team president Mark Murphy made the move after Green Bay took another debilitating hit to its fading playoff hopes. “The 2018 season has not lived up to the expectations and standards of the Green Bay Packers,” Murphy said in a statement....

The National Hurricane Center said Tropical Depression Nine is expected to strengthen into a tropical storm and later a hurricane as it approaches the Gulf of Mexico during the weekend. It also warned that conditions are expected to be favorable for the storm to strengthen into a major hurricane. “Odds are we’re going to have a hurricane by the time we get out of this weekend in the Gulf of Mexico,” AccuWeather meteorologist Bernie Rayno said Wednesday....

He followed up a good year with two great ones in 2017 and 2018 when he posted ERAs of 2.98 and 2.60, respectively, in 131 appearances in 118 1/3 innings. That was then and this is now.

The 34 goals tallied by Vela is tied for third worldwide alongside the reigning Golden Boot winners from both La Liga (Lionel Messi - 36 goals for FC Barcelona) and Ligue 1 (Kylian Mbappé - 33 goals for Paris Saint-Germain). With a goals-per-game average of 1.10, Vela finishes the season above Messi (1.05) and in near reach of Mbappé’s per-match production (1.13). Vela becomes the first player in MLS history to finish a season with a goals-per-game average higher than 1....

Carrick will turn 36 before the start of the 2017-18 campaign and will in June be honoured with a testimonial, having moved to Old Trafford from Tottenham in 2006. But Robson, who won two Premier League titles with United, believes Carrick would still have plenty to offer Jose Mourinho’s side if he is afforded an extended stay. “Michael’s 35 – for me, the way he’s played this season and the influence he’s had on the team has been pretty good,” Robson told Omnisport....

Carson Wentz, who was making his first playoff start against Seattle after missing Philadelphia’s last two postseason runs with injuries, tried to duck down while getting tackled on a scramble late in the first quarter. In the process, he took a helmet-to-helmet hit from Seahawks pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney. There was no flag on the play.

Now, those same kids are being offered athletic training by India’s major sports organization, Sports Authority of India. In a video posted to social media by choreographer Shekhar Rao, the boy and girl, whose names could not be confirmed by Newsweek, were cartwheeling and front flipping while carrying school bags through what appears to be a street in Kolkata.

Cam Newton went full Superman to save an important victory for the Panthers (9-4) with his 62-yard run late in the fourth quarter that set up the tiebreaking touchdown, but there’s no doubt that in a game that was uglier and more defensive-minded than the final score indicates, Keenum was the more efficient quarterback on the field yet again. The individual numbers say that, despite the mistakes, Keenum (27-of-44 passing, 280 yards, two TDs, two INTs, 40 yards rushing, 94....

The clip comes with a caption from the owner that reads, “never change.” According to Senior Cat Wellness blog, cats of all ages can stick their tongues out, and it’s usually nothing to worry about.

No one yet knows whether his plan will ever become reality; many legal and financial obstacles remain. But there’s no question that the success of inner-city parochial schools has long intrigued public educators. Five years ago, in fact, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, Albert Shanker, dared New York’s Catholic schools to open their doors to the least educable 5 percent of the city’s students. Shanker contends that Catholic schools do well only because they cater to the better students and motivated parents....
