That’s all you can say after seeing that UCLA reeled in Chip Kelly as its head coach, according to multiple reports Saturday. That helps ease the transition from the Jim Mora era, which produced success with back-to-back 10-win seasons, but also failure – or at best mediocrity – through the last three seasons of the Josh Rosen era.

He might as well have been, though. Because unlike in January, when Franco caused a scary devaluation of Brazil’s currency by stopping payment on his state’s massive debt, the financial folks just weren’t paying attention. Perhaps they were too busy buying Brazilian stocks; the Bovespa index has soared 65 percent since the dark days of January. Or enjoying the resilience of the real, which has risen 22 percent against the dollar since bottoming out in the January devaluation....

Favre, however, made it clear Monday he’s not afraid at all about the potential of being Lam-booed. “I’ve heard that was a concern of mine, and I’m here to tell you I’m not,” Favre said as a guest of the ‘Carmen and Jurko’ show on Chicago’s WMVP-AM (ESPN 1000). “I’m not worried about that.

Brewers pitcher Jimmy Nelson hadn’t pitched a competitive inning against a batter wearing another team’s uniform since September 8, 2017. Nelson injured his shoulder diving back into the first-base bag in the sixth inning of that game against the Cubs and had shoulder surgery a few weeks later. The rehab process was laborious, as rehab processes tend to be. So when Nelson walked in from the Milwaukee bullpen down the third-base line to start the sixth inning of the Brewers’ game against the White Sox on Monday, his teammates — dozens and dozens of them still packed into the dugout just to see the moment — jumped up and lined the rails, hands over their heads cheering for the right-hander, who was a rotation stalwart from 2015-17....
