Everything you need to know about a battle between NFC playoff hopefuls by Jared Dubin @jadubin5 49s ago • 9 min read This week's edition of Monday Night Football is the second-consecutive night game between playoff contenders from the NFC West and NFC North. This time, the team from the West is hosting, and hoping for a better result than the Rams had against the Bears on Sunday night. The Seahawks, current holders of the No. 5 seed with their 7-5 record and owners of a three-game winning streak, host the Vikings, currently occupying the No. 6 slot with their 6-5-1 record. This game could hold massive importance to the playoff picture, especially if the Vikes can't come away with a win. Both squads are likely playing only for wild-card spots right now given how far behind their respective division leaders they sit, but owning the tiebreaker here could be huge in determining not only who plays in Chicago or Dallas or New Orleans or … [Read more...] about Seahawks vs. Vikings: Preview, prediction, statistics to know for ‘Monday Night Football’

Australia vs India 2018-19: 3 areas where India should improve
Top 5 / Top 10 10 Dec 2018, 12:52 IST SHARE It was the 53rd over for Ravichandran Ashwin who had been unlucky at times but had dried runs totally by bowling at one end relentlessly. It was the last over before tea, a break where every Indian would have cleared out their bladder. It was the tension of epic proportions out there for 11 Indian men where even front foot defence was starting to haunt them.And as it turned out Hazlewood, the Aussie no. 11, was going to block six cherries once again before handing his wicket to KL Rahul and with that, the Bharath army and 1.25 Billion people back home erupted with joy. It was a neck to neck game where Aussie's lower order had started to pick the bones out of Indian seamers, but before they ran out of bones the Indian bowlers showed then the pavilion all the time.It felt though that the history would remain intact looking at Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon batting in the middle. Even though they couldn't take Australia home … [Read more...] about Australia vs India 2018-19: 3 areas where India should improve

Andrew McCutchen goes clean-shaven for Yankees debut
Arthur Weinstein Updated at 8:52 a.m. ET Updated at 8:52 a.m. ET Andrew McCutchen will be at Yankee Stadium for Saturday's game against the Tigers, sporting a new look for his new team. The outfielder, acquired from the Giants Friday in a trade for two prospects and cash, posted a picture of himself Friday on social media, showing a freshly shaven face. It's not quite as big a deal as when he shaved off his trademark dreadlocks a few years back, but the veteran is clearly excited to be joining a championship contender. “Just gonna take me a sec to get used to my freshly shaved face. Other than that ... let’s go!” the outfielder tweeted. Who is he? pic.twitter.com/F8XbhaVSf5— Cut4 (@Cut4) August 31, 2018 Yankees manager Aaron Boone is likewise revved to add the outfielder into the Yankees' mix. While not the elite player he was in winning the 2013 NL MVP award with the … [Read more...] about Andrew McCutchen goes clean-shaven for Yankees debut

He showed off his new clean-shaven look in an Instagram story Friday afternoon. Check it out:Woah! It has been a very, very, very long time since McCutchen rocked a clean-shaven look. He's always had a goatee or beard as a big-leaguer. You probably have to go back to his days as a minor-leaguer for the last time McCutchen was clean-shaven, and that was probably because he couldn't grow facial hair yet!The Yankees have had a … [Read more...] about Andrew McCutchen reveals new clean-shaven look following trade to Yankees
