Former UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw agrees with Conor McGregor’s decision to remove himself from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency testing pool. McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC), who broke his leg in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, has not been tested in 2022. The way he looks bulked up right now has raised questions, but Dillashaw thinks McGregor made the right decision for his recovery. McGregor would have to re-enter the pool and complete six months of testing before he’s… Source link

Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg.Justin Sullivan/Getty Images (left), David Ramos/Getty Images (right) Meta’s effort to build the metaverse is a way to wrangle back control of consumer data from Apple, experts say. The attempt to gain a competitive advantage over Apple is reminiscent of Google’s effort to build Android. Google’s effort paid off, but it’s likely that Mark Zuckerberg learned the wrong lessons from recent history. Meta wants to wrangle control away from Apple. The company’s multi-billion… Source link

Investors in Meta stock wanted to hear one thing on the embattled company’s earnings call late Wednesday: an acknowledgement by founder Mark Zuckerberg that leaner spending times were ahead as margins have been squeezed by an ill-timed metaverse build out and a slowing ad market. They heard the opposite. The social media platform outlined about 13% year-over-year expense growth for fiscal year 2023, well above the Street’s forecast of 7%. Meta will clearly continue to spend aggressively —… Source link

Do a little leisure reading about Google’s shiny new Pixel 7 phones, and you’re bound to encounter a handful of common conclusions: The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are mostly meant to be reference devices and demo-like showcases for Google’s software. Google doesn’t expect many people (or businesses!) to buy ’em. Pixel phones in general have been total commercial flops. As someone who’s studied, written about, and personally owned Pixels since the start — and the… Source link

Respect the hustle. Also, try your best not to laugh. Garett Bolles gave it his all on a play gone wrong for the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Unfortunately for the Broncos, it wasn’t quite enough. Running back Melvin Gordon fumbled on a first-down carry against the Las Vegas Raiders in the second quarter. Raiders cornerback Amik Robertson scooped up the loose ball, darted through a crowd at midfield then broke free down the right sideline toward the end zone. He had one Broncos pursuer in tow:… Source link

The NBA announced its discipline of Phoenix Suns and Mercury owner Robert Sarver on Tuesday, fining the billionaire $10 million and suspending him from all league functions for one year. While those are stiff penalties by most standards, many felt the league didn’t go far enough. That group now includes LeBron James. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar tweeted his displeasure that Sarver was allowed to maintain ownership of the Suns despite the 18 years of workplace misconduct and sporadic racial… Source link

ARLINGTON, Texas — With his surgery-bound right hand hanging at his side and his words pointed forward seemingly out of habit, Dak Prescott asked for the one thing that will be in short supply for the Dallas Cowboys. Calm. “This is game one,” Prescott said following a costly 19-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “Let’s not hit the panic as if we just can’t do anything on offense. We have a great coaching staff. They’ll get back in there and they’ll find the things… Source link

I promised I wouldn’t say through gritted teeth, “Carson Wentz is the best quarterback Terry McLaurin has ever played with” and end up green-lighting him in fantasy this year. I’ve lived that life with Allen Robinson and dusty veterans in Chicago many times before. But based on my WR14 ranking of McLaurin, it looks like I’ve done it. We often forget that Taylor Heinicke, God bless him, was a backup quarterback in the XFL before finding himself on Washington’s roster. Whatever you… Source link

For 11 long and emotional minutes, Kyler Murray stood at a podium Thursday and defended himself and his work ethic as an athlete. You couldn’t blame him. Earlier this week, an addendum in his recently agreed upon $230 million contract ($160 million guaranteed) with the Arizona Cardinals was made public. It required Murray complete four hours of “independent study” during the week before each game. This is in addition to studying with coaches and teammates. It required Murray to… Source link
