The league has failed on this front — again. Appearing on SiriusXM NFL Radio, LSU running back Derrius Guice said one team representative at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis last week asked whether he was homosexual. Such a question is prohibited under the league’s Excellence in Workplace Conduct policy and potentially illegal under state law. MOCK DRAFT: Where the NY teams should look “Man, it was pretty crazy, bro,” a laughing Guice said when asked to recall the most unusual question he fielded at the Combine....

Deshaun Watson is still part of the team’s overall roster, but his status is unknown while sexual allegations loom and his desire to leave the team have been publicly known. Taylor, 31, met with media after an offseason workout, saying an opportunity to start in Houston is something he “looks forward to.” “Deshaun has played at a very high level throughout his career. I’m looking forward to just competing with the guys we have in our locker room....

But he might not be fully on board with Fox Sports analyst Marcellus Wiley suggesting the Chiefs don’t need to go get Jalen Ramsey in a trade with the Jaguars in order to knock off the Patriots for the AFC title. Wiley said this on “Speak for Yourself” on Wednesday: Watson saw Fox Sports tweet out video of Wiley saying this and chimed in. He continued: “Rolling the dice and saying, ‘No, let’s poach our team of a first-round pick and a starter to bring in Jalen Ramsey,’ who I remind you, despite the perception and the love for his game he was 24th ranked as a cornerback (by Pro Football Focus) last year coming out of the season....

The hip-hop star took to Instagram as news of Takeoff’s shooting death circulated on social media. “I’m done rap,” Desiigner simply wrote in one Stories post, along with fingers crossed and prayer emojis. The Brooklyn-born rapper also took a heartbreaking video of himself reacting to the news while crying. “I can’t even call [Quavo], I can’t even call Offset,” Desiigner said through tears, referring to Migos’ other founding members....

Ufotable will once again animate the series, with the main cast all returning for the new arc. RELATED: Second Season of Jujutsu Kaisen Announced...

OK, we have one comment. (For those unaware, Rodman is back in North Korea with a number of former NBA players. Another trip of Rodman's was chronicled by Vice in 2013.)

Denver is just days away from surpassing its second and third-longest consecutive streaks without measurable snowfall, local news channel KDVR reported Monday. In 1889, the city recorded 224 days without measurable snow, while in 1888 there were 227 days. Now, the city may be on its way to surpassing both records as meteorologist Chris Tomer told KDVR that there isn’t a snow forecast for at least another week. Only time will tell whether or not Denver could surpass its longest-ever streak without measurable snow, which was recorded at 235 days in 1887, according to the news channel....

The 40-year-old has put his plans for a career in broadcasting on hold to sign for the Eagles, who required additional cover at the position behind starter Carson Wentz. After Nate Sudfeld broke his wrist earlier in preseason against the Tennessee Titans, Cody Kessler suffered a concussion less than three minutes into Thursday’s fixture against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Kessler’s misfortune left Clayton Thorson, a 2019 fifth-round pick from Northwestern, to finish the game....

The first leg between the clubs earlier in December ended with Borussia Dortmund winning 3-2 at the Signal Iduna Park after Bayern twice went ahead with Robert Lewandowski and Marco Reus twice levelling it up for Dortmund before Paco Alcacer came off the bench to score the winner. Much has changed since the last Klassiker with Dortmund this season and dropping points more often while Bayern Munich has had a resurgence with the Bavarian giants going on a rampaging that saw them level on points with Dortmund last week....

Liverpool had dominated the Merseyside derby so thoroughly that the 1-0 scoreline – courtesy of another stunner in Mohamed Salah’s bulging collection – was incredibly kind to Everton at that point in a ridiculously one-sided encounter. Jurgen Klopp’s men had created more than enough to wreck the visitors’ festive period for a second year running, but as Dejan Lovren gave referee Craig Pawson a decision to make after putting his hands on Dominic Calvert-Lewin, it felt like Christmas had been cancelled for the Reds....

The 38-year-old Chisora received a rapturous hometown reception from the crowd but was entering the ring on the back of three consecutive defeats, and he was facing a man who beat him in a European title fight six years ago. All of those more recent losses — one to unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk and two to former WBO ruler Joseph Parker — came over the 12-round distance. On this night, Chisora was left at the mercy of the judges once again after another devilishly close contest....

DeMar DeRozan had 30 points, LaMarcus Aldridge scored 27 and San Antonio defeated the Denver Nuggets 111-103 on Wednesday night. Bryn Forbes added 15 points for the resurgent Spurs (19-16), who have won eight of 10 to move within two percentage points of first-place Houston in the Southwest Division. “It just shows you that we can go out there and compete with the best and why we should look at ourselves as one of the best teams in this league as well,” DeRozan said....

Will he be back before the end of the regular season? “That would be the plan,” Rose told reporters before Wednesday’s shootaround. “But who knows? Whenever I’m ready to come back, that’s when I’m going to come back.’’ MORE: What does Thunder future hold? | Latest Mock Draft | Warriors clinch Rose, who underwent a minor knee procedure Feb. 27, will practice Thursday in full-contact conditions.

“I think that’s the fairest way to do it, to let the parents have the decision. It would not be fair if we told parents who wanted the kids to wear masks they weren’t allowed to do it,” DeSantis said at a press conference in Cape Coral. “But it’s certainly not fair to force parents who don’t believe that masks are good for their kids, to force them to have to send their kids in masks....

Both Republican-controlled chambers of the state legislature are scheduled to consider four bills that will impose tougher penalties on businesses and local governments that require COVID-19 vaccines for their employees, and schools that require students to wear masks. “No cop, no firefighter, no nurse, nobody should be losing their job because of these jabs—we must stand up for people and protect their jobs and livelihoods,” DeSantis said in a news release....

The Republican governor’s remarks come after Associate Justice Stephen Breyer formally announced he would retire from the nation’s highest court this week, giving Biden the opportunity to nominate his successor. DeSantis is widely considered a strong contender for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination—a fact that adds weight to his views about appointments to the Court. “When you’re dealing with picks for the Supreme Court, you want people who are going to be faithful to the law and the Constitution, and understand how our constitutional system was designed to have separate powers,” DeSantis said on Friday....

“Florida is here. We’ve got capacity, and we also have incentive packages to make it worth your while to be able to bring your business to our ports,” DeSantis said. DeSantis made his pitch from Jaxport in Jacksonville. He said a European container ship supplier recently decided to start using Jaxport as its U.S. unloading destination and as a result, the company was able to bring an extra 1,000 containers a week through the port....

France booked their place at next year’s finals before playing on Thursday, as Turkey drew at home to Iceland to ensure the visitors could not catch either their opponents or the world champions. But rather than celebrate in style, France started sloppily in a Group H qualifier packed with decisive errors in Paris. Clement Lenglet handed Moldova’s Vadim Rata the opener, but Raphael Varane profited from Alexei Koselev’s mistake, before Olivier Giroud sealed victory from the penalty spot....

Watson had settled 23 of the 24 civil cases against him—accusations ranging from inappropriate behavior to sexual assault—when Disciplinary Officer Sue L. Robinson issued her ruling. It was the culmination of a 15-month investigation and three-day hearing. Watson, who last played for the Houston Texans, has denied all charges, and two grand juries declined to indict him. Newsweek previously reported on the numerous allegations against Watson, including a pattern of accusations that he had exposed himself to multiple massage therapists without consent and in some cases maneuvered his body so that they would have to touch his penis....
