Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s home was broken into Monday night while he played against the Cowboys, the latest in a series of thefts committed during games. Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce had their homes broken into the day before a game and then the day of a game in October. Bears players said they plan on being cautious when the team plays on “Monday Night Football.” “It was happening before, but now it’s happening to big names and it’s a big matter,” receiver DJ Moore said Friday. “So, I’m taking it serious. ...You definitely have to worry about it.” Tight end Cole Kmet, the team’s NFLPA representative, said that the Bears security staff offers services to their players, be it actual guards or technology, when they’re on the road. The union also offers discounts for home security systems, he said. “Things are very accessible nowadays in terms of being able to look things up, where people live ...” Kmet said. “[It’s] definitely something that as a player you’ve gotta be aware of, because I would say at this point everyone kinda knows your schedule. They know when the house is occupied and when it’s not. It’s unfortunate, but it’s part of the deal.” Moore warned that he has a premium security system. “My house is wired like the Bat-cave,” he said. “You ain’t getting in. If you touch the house, the alarm goes off.” Hoke on Tyrique One day after cornerback Tyrique Stevenson said he didn’t want his Fail Mary gaffe to define him, cornerbacks coach Jon Hoke said he had a lot to deal with in the aftermath of the Commanders’ game-winning touchdown. “Let’s be honest: It’s a tough one, especially in this city where football matters,” Hoke said. “He gets introduced the next game and he gets booed and all that. It’s tough.” Hoke acknowledged the effect of the gaffe— “We had some tough games after that,” he said — but said sensed that Stevenson’s teammates remained supportive. “Players are truly forgiving of teammates, they really are,” he said. “That’s what make it unique about sport, is they do protect each other.” Swift still out Running back D’Andre Swift missed his second consecutive practice because of a groin injury but offensive coordinator Chris Beatty expects him to practice Saturday. “It’s one of those things where we are just trying to be prudent with it and also be able to be prepared for however the game presents itself,” he said. “I think he will be able to do what he does, but we are also prepared whatever way that may go.” Other Bears players who missed practice were guard Ryan Bates (concussion), defensive tackle Gervon Dexter (knee), running back Roschon Johnson (concussion) and tight end Marcedes Lewis (veteran rest). Cornerback Josh Blackwell (shoulder) was upgraded to limited. Safety Elijah Hicks (ankle) was limited, too. Notes • Special teams coordinator Richard Hightower called former Bears kicker Robbie Gould, who was named the head coach at St. Viator this week, “as detailed as a person I have ever been around.” Kmet, who went to St. Viator, said he was excited by the development. “It’ll be cool to see,” he said. “I’ll be rooting Robbie on heavily here.” • Kmet declared U.S. Bank Stadium his favorite, saying it “feels like you’re in a ‘Game of Thrones’ set.” Reminded that Bears president/CEO Kevin Warren helped build it, Kmet said he’d like one of his own. “That one’s pretty beautiful,” he said. “So yeah, hopefully something like that.” • The Vikings had one player not practice Friday: cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who has a hamstring problem.Disinformation, fake news powerful enough to disrupt society: Amit ShahArchitecting The Future Of Digital Healthcare: Rohan Viswanatha Prasad's Vision Transforms Cerebral's Core Platform

By JOHN ZENOR AP Sports Writer Oregon and Ohio State have already produced one heck of a game this season. Now, the top-seeded Ducks (13-0) and eighth-seeded Buckeyes (11-2) are gearing up for a rematch more than 10 weeks later in a College Football Playoff quarterfinal game at the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day. Of course, both teams have had ample time for evolution since that 32-31 Oregon win on Oct. 12 in Eugene. But they also have that game and players’ familiarity with each other, not to mention common opponents in the Big Ten. “Sometimes when you’re playing against a team maybe from another conference in the playoffs, there’s a little bit of an unknown, how can you expect this guy to play?” Buckeyes coach Ryan Day said Monday. “What am I really looking at when I look at the teams they’re playing? “This team’s not that way because we played them already and they played in the conference. So there’s again a reference point as we move into this one. So our guys know what they’re up against, but they also know that they’ve evolved and we’ve evolved, and so two very different teams heading into this game. And the team who prepares the best is going to win.” Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who went on to become a Heisman Trophy finalist, passed for 341 yards and ran for a 27-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter of the first meeting. Then, Atticus Sappington made the game-winning 19-yard field goal in the final two minutes. The then-No. 2 Buckeyes were the highest-ranked opponent that Oregon has beaten during the regular season. After the Oregon fans’ field-storming celebration, Ducks coach Dan Lanning quipped: “Anyone have a heart-rate monitor?” Now, the questions include will they need one for this game? Or will it fail to provide the same thrills? Ohio State opened the playoffs with a 42-17 rout of Tennessee on Saturday night . “You could probably argue that Ohio State’s best game was the game they just played,” Lanning said. “So it’s important at this point in the year that you’re playing really good football. Sometimes you don’t know that until you step on the field. “That’s your job as a coach to get you ready for those moments, get our players ready for those moments, but certainly hope that we put our best foot forward when we play in this Rose Bowl.” Lanning and the Ducks also played Washington twice last season, losing both by a field goal – 36-33 on Oct. 14 and 34-31 in the Pac-12 championship game on Dec. 1 in Las Vegas. Lanning isn’t about to tip his hand about what adjustments the Ducks might make or prepare for, but joked: “Yeah, we’re going to do the exact same thing, right, every play, first call.” “I won’t really get into the differences, but they’re a really good team,” Lanning said. “I don’t know if there’s a more talented team in the nation.” And by the time these two teams play again, 81 days will have passed from Round 1. Gameplans figure to change, with plenty of tweaks on offense and defense along the way. “They’ve changed and they’re much more multiple in what they do,” Day said of the Ducks. “So you combine all those things together and you put the game plan in. And then you throw some things out. You add some things that you think might fit. “At the end of the day, you only have to pack what you need and you’ve got to make sure that it’s clean and it’s a plan that the guys can go execute with a lot of confidence. That’s what we’re in the middle of right now.”Hand-drawn cat railway game Short Trip is coming to Steam

KILLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — American skier Mikaela Shiffrin said she suffered an abrasion on her left hip and that something “stabbed” her when she crashed during her second run of a World Cup giant slalom race Saturday, doing a flip and sliding into the protective fencing. Shiffrin stayed down on the edge of the course for quite some time as the ski patrol attended to her. She was taken off the hill on a sled and waved to the cheering crowd before going to a clinic for evaluation. “Not really too much cause for concern at this point, I just can’t move,” she said later in a video posted on social media . “I have a pretty good abrasion and something stabbed me. ... I’m so sorry to scare everybody. It looks like all scans so far are clear.” She plans to skip the slalom race Sunday, writing on Instagram she will be “cheering from the sideline.” The 29-year-old was leading after the first run of the GS and charging for her 100th World Cup win. She was within sight of the finish line, five gates onto Killington’s steep finish pitch, when she an outside edge. She hit a gate and did a somersault before sliding into another gate. The fencing slowed her momentum as she came to an abrupt stop. Reigning Olympic GS champion Sara Hector of Sweden won in a combined time of 1 minute, 53.08 seconds. Zrinka Ljutic of Croatia was second and Swiss racer Camille Rast took third. The Americans saw Paula Moltzan and Nina O’Brien finish fifth and sixth. “It’s just so sad, of course, to see Mikaela crash like that and skiing so well,” Hector said on the broadcast after her win. “It breaks my heart and everybody else here.” The crash was a surprise for everyone. Shiffrin rarely DNFs — ski racing parlance for “did not finish.” In 274 World Cup starts, she DNF'd only 18 times. The last time she DNF'd in GS was January 2018. Shiffrin also has not suffered any devastating injuries. In her 14-year career, she has rehabbed only two on-hill injuries: a torn medial collateral ligament and bone bruising in her right knee in December 2015 and a sprained MCL and tibiofibular ligament in her left knee after a downhill crash in January 2024. Neither knee injury required surgery, and both times, Shiffrin was back to racing within two months. Saturday was shaping up to be a banner day for Shiffrin, who skied flawlessly in the first run and held a 0.32-second lead as she chased after her 100th World Cup win. Shiffrin, who grew up in both New Hampshire and Colorado and sharpened her skills at nearby Burke Mountain Academy, has long been a fan favorite. Shiffrin is driven not so much by wins but by arcing the perfect run. She has shattered so many records along the way. She passed Lindsey Vonn’s women’s mark of 82 World Cup victories on Jan. 24, 2023, during a giant slalom in Kronplatz, Italy. That March, Shiffrin broke Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark’s Alpine mark for most World Cup wins when she captured her 87th career race. To date, she has earned five overall World Cup titles, two Olympic gold medals — along with a silver — and seven world championships. In other FIS Alpine World Cup news, the Tremblant World Cup — two women’s giant slaloms at Quebec’s Mont-Tremblant scheduled for next weekend — were canceled. Killington got 21 inches of snow on Thanksgiving Day, but Tremblant — five hours north of Killington — had to cancel its races because of a lack of snow.

As the world watches the situation in Syria with a mixture of concern and cautious optimism, it is clear that the impact of any potential collapse of the Assad regime would extend far beyond the borders of Syria. The risk of escalation and the potential for conflict spreading to neighboring countries is a sobering reminder of the fragility of the regional order.Skip the Dyson Airwrap this Black Friday – this option is £200 cheaper
