Why Peyton Barber Cost The Raiders 38 Yards With Failed Attempt At Exploiting Nfl Kickoff Rules

The Raiders running back and special teamer pulled off something of a boneheaded play on a kickoff during the opening wild-card playoff matchup between the Raiders and Bengals. Back to receive after a Bengals touchdown, Barber grabbed the ball in bounds and then proceeded to step out. While that isn’t wise in and of itself, what Barber was likely trying to do was draw a penalty for a kickoff out of bounds, which would have given the Raiders really good field position to start their next drive....

Why Revenge Isn T The Right Answer

By a twist of fate, the ancestral village where my family had lived and farmed for five centuries, Kanjrur-Duttan, was located seven miles west of the Ravi River, where the Boundary Commission had drawn an invisible border line. Suddenly my family members were minority Hindus living in an Islamic nation, caught in the middle of a holocaust. Scores of uncles and granduncles were butchered by Muslim mobs. My aunts were raped and abducted....

Why Right Now Is A Terrible Time To Buy A Graphics Card

But now is just about the worst time in history to buy a new GPU. A combination of scalpers, crypto miners, stock issues and general pandemic chaos means what you’ll find is a whole list of cards that are out of stock along with much higher prices than you were expecting. Scalping & cryptomining Let’s start with the hot topic over recent months: scalpers. The idea of scalping – essentially buying up as much stock as possible at launch to resell at higher value – isn’t a new concept, but the shift to online sales over the pandemic has meant it’s easier than ever for those looking to make a bit of money....

Why Robin Van Persie Should Get The Pfa Award Ahead Of Luis Suarez

Just before the start of the 2012-13 campaign for Manchester United, Sir Alex had signed his most important player in that transfer window. It was Robin van Persie, the man arriving from Arsenal for 24 million pounds. He arrived during the peak of his career and at the right time for Manchester United. Robin van Persie started his sparkling career at the club in his first game at Old Trafford versus Fulham, with an amazing volley from Evra’s cross....

Why Ronaldo S Ban Can Be A Good Thing For Real Madrid

Ronaldo returned to training later than his team-mates after appearing for Portugal in the Confederations Cup earlier this summer. The 32-year-old is, therefore, behind in terms of fitness and started on the bench as Real retained the UEFA Super Cup with victory over Manchester United in Skopje last Tuesday. On Sunday, he was left out of the team again, coming on in the second half to score a wonder goal before being sent off minutes later after he was adjudged to have dived in the area....

Why Sarfraz Ahmed Should Not Be Relieved Of Test Captaincy

Everytime he is seen walking back to the pavilion, comes the tsunami of thought-provoking queries in the CPUs of many, and fumes start to blacken the bright side of him. Things go wonted as the vibe of overall conquest takes over. In very less span, it subsists, not elucidating enough. Is he different than other captains? Well, a lot. He has his unique ways of having his army marshaled. Neither does he copy Imran Khan nor is he Misbah-like....

Why Seahawks Drew Lock Not Geno Smith Is Expected To Be Seattle S Starting Qb

As such, it was expected that Seattle would target a quarterback during the 2022 NFL Draft. Instead, the Seahawks didn’t select a single passer and notably passed on Malik Willis four separate times. When that happened, it was presumed that they would be in the running for Baker Mayfield should the Browns trade him. However, ESPN’s Dianna Russini reported on May 3 that the Seahawks have “no interest” in Mayfield and are comfortable “riding” a quarterback who is already on their roster....

Why Shawn Michaels Should Wrestle Again

The Undertaker, Goldberg, and Brock Lesnar are all currently advertised for the card. One notable legendary name that is currently absent from that list is two time WWE Hall of Famer, “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels. Michaels competed on the last Saudi Arabia card on November 2, 2018, his first WWE match in almost a decade, in a much-maligned main event partnering Triple H versus Undertaker and Kane. While Michaels looked decent in the bout, his partner and opponents looked like they would be best served in a wrestling retirement home....

Why Skull And Bones Could Be Anthem With Ships

Initially unveiled back at E3 2017, it’s been a long while since there’s been any significant update or reveal for Ubisoft’s dedicated naval game. Fans were initially very excited for Skull and Bones, and the prospect of a standalone pirate game being devoid of any necessary ties to the Assassin’s Creed formula. However, like several other Ubisoft games slated for release in the 2019/2020 window, Skull and Bones was delayed into Ubisoft’s next fiscal year....

Why Some People From Ireland India Are Celebrating Queen S Death

People in countries formerly controlled by Britain, such as India, Ireland, Australia and Nigeria, were quick to point out the monarchy’s role in the subjugation of their countries. Queen Elizabeth II died on Thursday at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, with her oldest son Charles immediately becoming King Charles III. While the Queen reigned during a period of much change for the British Empire and the subsequently formed Commonwealth of Nations, many in former colonies consider her a figurehead for the brutality their people suffered....

Why Taylor Swift S Name Is Suddenly Popping Up In Virginia Governor S Race

McAuliffe, a Democrat, alleged in his campaign ads that Youngkin “helped buy Taylor Swift’s masters out from under her” during his time as the co-CEO of the Carlyle Group. The ads debuted Tuesday on Instagram, Facebook and Google, according to Axios. The controversy dates back to talent manager Scooter Braun’s Ithaca Holdings LLC purchase of Swift’s former label, Big Machine, in 2019. Swift’s fight for the rights to her music escalated in the months that followed, with her posting pleas for her fans’ help and support on Tumblr in November 2019....

Why Telecom Wants To Kill Net Neutrality

The report, released by the New York attorney general this week, shows that millions of comments submitted to the FCC in favor of repealing net neutrality in 2017 were not only fake, but were created through a secret campaign funded by major broadband companies that lured consumers through promises of free gifts and rewards. Experts say this isn’t the only time that big telecom companies have abused their power, and it serves as more evidence that proper net neutrality laws are needed to protect the American people....

Why The Elder Scrolls 6 Is Better Off Exploring Aetherius Rather Than Oblivion

Skyrim players who have freely avoided the primary campaign in favor of exploring Bleak Falls Barrow or joining the College of Winterhold might be unaware that the Last Dragonborn travels to the planes of Aetherius at the end of the game. The climactic battle between the Last Dragonborn and the “world-eater” Alduin took place in Skyrim’s Sovngarde, the mythological Nord afterlife that was never reachable until that moment. Now that Bethesda has given players access to Aetherius in two different games, there is no reason why The Elder Scrolls 6 shouldn’t feature more from the location....

Why The Nba All Star Game Has Become Unwatchable In 2017

The team that lost by 23 in this contest topped the previous scoring record in an All-Star Game by 10 points. Let that sink in for a second. There were 286 shots taken, which averages out to one every 10 seconds. Yet an incredibly low number of those shots were contested, as we saw only four trips to the free throw line and two blocked shots all game. That includes zero blocks from the West, who actually haven’t had a single one in three straight years....

Why The Pittsburgh Penguins Shouldn T Dare To Trade Phil Kessel

Kessel was the most consistent Pittsburgh Penguins player during the 2017-2018 season. He scored 34 goals and recorded 58 assists during the regular season and his plus/minus was -4. Kessel also had 42 power-play points and he was on the first power-play unit all season. They also shouldn’t trade him because he played with an injury during the playoffs and Kessel should be fine at the start of the 2018-2019 season....

Why The War Was Right

Let me be honest: I thought that we would have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq by now. We might still, but the United States has had hundreds of people looking through hundreds of suspected sites for six months. This lack of evidence should surprise the Bush administration, and should lead to a serious examination of prewar intelligence. After all, President Bush claimed that Iraq “possesses and produces chemical and biological weapons....
