Mike Vrabel has made it clear to his players that he won’t shy away from calling them out about things they need to correct.He also doesn’t want to miss an opportunity to praise them.“Give them all game balls on me!” Vrabel shouted as he wrapped his postgame speech in the locker room following the Patriots’ 25-19 win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.

Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers drove into the teeth of the Las Vegas Aces defense during the first quarter of her WNBA preseason debut. Launching from the left side, Bueckers connected on a left-handed floater from 5 feet, and then fell hard to the baseline.It was a welcome-to-the-league moment that might have left a bruise.Bueckers, the first overall selection in the 2025 WNBA Draft after leading UConn to a national title a month ago, scored 10 points in 23 minutes on Notre Dame’s home floor as the rebuilding Wings lost 112-78 to the perennially title-contending Aces.Jackie Young scored 28 points…
The escalation of trade tensions will accelerate supply chain reconfiguration and push regional economies towards strategic hedgingUS PRESIDENT Donald Trump’s new 100 per cent tariff on Chinese imports marks a dramatic escalation in US-China trade tensions, with substantial and multifaceted ripple effects across Singapore and the broader Asia-Pacific (Apac) region.Singapore faces a uniquely delicate position in this escalating trade conflict. As a major financial hub and transhipment centre, it is both vulnerable and strategically important. Under current frameworks, the city-state has been subject to a relatively low 10 per cent baseline tariff rate. However, this relative favourability may be misleading. Singapore’s…
PAPER TIGERThe fact that Trump couldn’t wait for just one day of a meaningful market correction in China before reversing himself is interesting.

It can be easy to dismiss Jim Harbaugh’s frequently over-the-top praise for his players.However when it comes to Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, his head coach might be onto something after Herbert dragged Los Angeles’ banged-up offense to a 29-27 win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.“He’s Hercules to me,” Harbaugh said Sunday. “He’s just a mighty man.”The Chargers (4-2) needed all of that strength from Herbert to escape the grasp of outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips and find wide receiver Ladd McConkey for a 42-yard catch-and-run that set up the go-ahead field goal with 5 seconds left.His mix of moxie and…
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California will become the first state in the nation requiring restaurants to list major food allergens on their menus starting in 2026 under a new law.The law Gov.
