The newly-minted starting quarterback for the Cowboys has a self-imposed Twitter ban so he doesn’t have to deal with the unnecessary criticism and nonsense from the outside world.

Chicago right-hander Jeff Samardzija hit Upton with a pitch in the sixth inning. Upton ran to first base but left the game, walking slowly off the field in apparent pain, after being checked by a Braves trainer. PHOTOS: Wrigley Field 100th birthday The Braves say Upton, who was replaced by Jordan Schafer, is day to day. Upton appeared to hurt his lower back in the fourth inning when he tagged Anthony Rizzo at the end of a long run-down between first and second....
The Braves may have lost to the Phillies 7-6 on Sunday night, but the Atlanta outfielder is playing out of his mind to start the 2021 MLB season. First, Acuña dazzled fans in the first inning of the Braves-Phillies matchup, beating out a routine ground ball, exhibiting elite sprint speed to first base. There are many things about Acuña beating out the ground ball that make it impressive: It was a hard-hit ball to Didi Gregorius, at just a hair under 109 mph; Gregorius fielded the ball cleanly; Gregorius made a strong throw over to first base....
The AJC reported last week that in February, Cobb County officials, at the request of the Braves, “quietly passed an ordinance that outlaws property owners within a half-mile of the stadium from charging for parking during games and other special events at the stadium.” That means only the team can profit from parking, and since no public transportation will reach SunTrust Park, driving is really the only option.

Brazil might well say “Amen.” Lucas do Rio Verde arose from the dust 25 years ago when the government dispatched legions of farmers from the overcrowded south to the empty western outback. The settlers hacked down the scrubby forests, or cerrado, only to find weak and acidic soil. The heat was hellish, and the rains came in deluges. Malaria was rampant. One by one the farmers failed, some swapping their lots for nothing but a ride back home....
An investigation into the Brazilian government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was launched by its Senate on Tuesday and could potentially lead to charges and impact Bolsonaro’s chances of re-election in October 2022. “This inquiry will not punish anyone criminally; that’s for the attorney general. But the negative exposure will be strong, every day,” said political scientist Beatriz Ray, who specializes in Brazil, according to AP. UOL reported that an internal investigation document anticipated 23 potential avenues of investigation....
After losing 1-0 to Switzerland in their opening game, Cameroon came from two goals down to salvage a 3-3 draw with Serbia in their last match. That leaves the African side with a chance of advancing if they beat Brazil and Switzerland fail to defeat Serbia. The Selecao have won both of their games in Qatar to date without conceding, but are already through to the knockout stages so may take things slightly easier in this clash....
Things are so bad, President Jair Bolsonaro has resorted to pleading for assistance, asking on September 23 for Brazilians to stop using elevators when possible and to take “much healthier” cold showers. “Help us,” Bolsonaro begged on his weekly Facebook broadcast. The drought is the worst the country has seen in 91 years, necessitating the return of power rationing.

There are powerful motives at play. Men claim it makes oral sex more sensual, says Lidia Tivichi of New York’s Kimara Ahnert salon. “Without the hair, everything down there looks bigger,” she says. “I know they like that, too.” When the pain is unbearable, men use anesthetic cream before appointments. Still, Cynthia Esser-Thorin, who owns Pink Cheeks in Sherman Oaks, Calif., says that at times “we have to pull a man off the ceiling....
The way one watches game won’t change — antenna, cable, satellite, streaming — but three of the major networks that airs the games have changes in the booth and the studio. While NBC rolls with the same “Sunday Night Football” talent, ESPN is breaking in a new main “Monday Night Football” trio. Fox will remain the same for “Thursday Night Football” and the simulcasts on NFL Network, but is undergoing some changes for Sunday afternoon coverage....
Vegas may consider the game a pick’em, but how do the two teams stack up in Madden? Using the latest roster, which was updated following the conference championship games, the evaluation by positional group ratings favors the Patriots. Of course the result will be about more than just individual attributes, and that’s something the Madden video game struggles to portray. Last year’s Super Bowl between the Broncos and Seahawks appeared to be a fair fight until the first snap showed something completely different....
While Turkey could still use the IMF’s approval to reassure investors, a more interesting question may be how much the IMF needs Turkey. Its remaining debt to the Fund (about $7 billion) dwarfs that of the next largest borrower, Liberia ($500 million). But $7 billion is not what it used to be in the developing world, which underscores the IMF’s struggle now that its target market has plenty of access to capital....

The musician, 33, took to Twitter on Wednesday and demanded President Donald Trump stop using his songs at his events. Trump walked onto the stage at a campaign rally in Phoenix, Arizona to one of Urie’s bands’ hit single, “High Hopes.” Urie was unequivocally in his tweet, telling the President he was “not invited” to use the track. He wrote: “Dear Trump Campaign, F*** you. You’re not invited. Stop playing my song....

The Pro Football Hall of Famer said as much Sunday during an interview on “The Andy Klavan Show,” whose namesake host is a conservative commentator and author. Favre said the mixing of sports and politics has hurt the former inasmuch fans don’t want it bogged down with outside political or social commentary. “I know when I turn on a game, I want to watch a game,” Favre said. “I want to watch players play and teams win, lose, come from behind....
