Notre Dame's Pat Connaughton dunked all over Duke on Saturday, posterizing superstar freshman Jabari Parker. Connaughton may never play in the NBA, in fact, he'll probably end up in the MLB, but he'll always be able to say he posterized Jabari Parker. The Irish upset the No. 7 Blue Devils in their ACC debut, 79-77.
AMD has released a report stating that some of its processors have been experiencing performance issues with Windows 11. Specifically, running certain (unspecified) applications can see processor speeds drop up to 5%—or up to 15% in some games. This is caused by either the processor’s cache suddenly taking up to three times as long to access or some tasks being mistakenly handed off to a slower processor core. The report goes on to state that any of its Windows 11-compatible processors could be affected....

Game Rant was invited to a prescreening of the recent livestream that announced the new Expedition expansion. This will be the first expansion for Path of Exile since Ultimatum was released. A short Q&A with Grinding Gear Games’ Chris Wilson and other publications revealed a lot of excitement about the new expansion, and a large part of that was how the team at GGG is looking to help shake up the challenge of Path of Exile going into the future of the ARPG....
But when the STP 500 was over, the patience paid off as he finished third and took over the Sprint Cup Series points lead. Earnhardt, who led three times for 25 laps, felt he had to save his left-rear tire in case of long green-flag runs. “You couldn't run any harder with the wear we had on the tires,” Earnhardt said. “You just couldn't afford to. You saw how the 20 car (of Matt Kenseth) and the 18 car (of Kyle Busch), those guys would run real hard at the lead early in the race, and they set an example for the rest of us to watch out and be easy on that left-rear tire, and it just goes away like a snap....
However, coach Ram Meher Singh and other members of the Patna Pirates team management ensured that they signed some big raiders. They signed their former star Monu Goyat and former Gujarat Giants raider Sachin Tanwar. Another star raider to join Patna was Prashanth Kumar Rai. The Pirates have a strong raiding unit, but their defense is not as powerful. They retained Neeraj Kumar before the auction and added the likes of Sunil, Shubham Shinde, Sandeep and Sourav Gulia to their defense....
NFL Network’s James Palmer has reported Mahomes suffered a patella dislocation, no fracture and will need an MRI to determine possible ligament damage. One broadcast angle showed Mahomes having what could only be described as his right knee being popped back into place. Mahomes headed to the in-stadium X-Ray room, according to the broadcast, and was officially ruled out within a couple minutes, based on the timing of a tweet from the Chiefs’ official Twitter account....
The Chiefs quarterback had an impressive first half against the Raiders in Oakland on Sunday. At halftime, he already had four touchdown passes and 313 yards. The breakdown of those stats is even more impressive. Mahomes became the first signal-caller to throw for more than 278 yards in any quarter since Drew Brees did so in 2008. Kansas City went on to beat Oakland, 28-10. Mahomes finished the game 30-of-44 passing for 443 yards and the four scores....
This time, Kansas City and Cincinnati will face in the AFC Championship. The Bengals haven’t reached this game since 1988, but this marks the Chiefs’ fourth consecutive appearance. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes expected to meet the Bengals in the playoffs this year. After Joe Burrow and the Bengals beat the Chiefs a few weeks ago, Mahomes told Burrow after the game that they will “see y’all in the playoffs.” MORE: Patrick Mahomes ran from Chiefs celebration to hug Josh Allen...
He was asked about a comment made by Cardinals coach Chuck Pagano in February. Pagano spoke with ProFootballTalk and said Peterson was battling blood sugar problems. The cornerback admitted it affected him in the early part of the season.

Yes, that's Charlie Brown. We sent a tweet to Peterson about who created these custom kicks and we'll update the post with an answer if we hear back from him. (Because we know you're waiting to buy your pair.) Here's a look at some of his more restrained shoes he's shared in the past. UPDATE: Peterson isn’t divulging the source of his Charlie Brown kicks.

Edelman, who says he did not “identify as Jewish until later in my life,” became aware, like many who follow football, of Jackson’s post to Instagram earlier in the week that included a quote falsely attributed to Adolph Hitler that presents a hate-filled view of Jews. Jackson later apologized for the post.

Sanu told reporters Friday that he turned down a generous offer from Brady regarding his coveted No. 12 jersey. “(Brady) DM’d me when I first got traded. (He) said welcome and everything like that, how he’s excited,” Sanu said. “And then he said if I wanted (No.) 12 I could get it. I was like, ‘Nah, you got that. I’ll change to 14.’” Sanu had worn No. 12 since he was selected in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft....
In fact, according to ESPN, New England has filed tampering charges with the NFL against the Texans for their attempted hire of Nick Caserio. The NFL will now begin investigating, according to the report. Houston has long wanted Caserio to be part of its organization. The team asked for permission to interview the 43-year-old last year after general manager Rick Smith stepped down, but the Patriots declined. Then, after firing Smith’s replacement, Brian Gaine, last week, Houston again asked the Patriots for permission to speak to Caserio....
The Patriots endured a tough end to the 2019 NFL season, falling into the wild card round of the playoffs and then losing to the Tennessee Titans. It has been suggested the poor run could spell the end of an era in New England, with Brady and Bill Belichick potentially parting ways after winning the team’s six Super Bowls together. Brady is set to become a free agent but said after the defeat to the Titans retirement was “pretty unlikely”....
But on current form, the Patriots don’t look like the Patriots. They are gaining fewer yards per play than the Jaguars. They don’t have a single second-half touchdown. They have exceeded 300 yards once in three games entering the Monday-night matchup against the Chiefs (8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN). Still, we’re talking a 2-1 New England team that might just be shaking off some rust while winning games. How resourceful! And look, these are the Patriots, man....

But the 2010-11 season was not a great one for the team. Indiana finished 37-45 and fired head coach Jim O’Brien following a 17-27 start to the season. On Saturday a Twitter user asked George about what his favorite moment from his rookie year was, and the superstar responded with a rather interesting answer. His answer does have some merit. Frank Vogel replaced O’Brien, and the first-time head coach led the team to a 20-18 record to end the season and a berth in the playoffs....
