Man Utd: Romano reveals two ‘cheaper options’ in midfield with ‘top target’ costing ‘crazy money’

data-mm-id=”_wx42uyp7c”>Jalen Ramsey forced his way out of Jacksonville and promised to play nice in La La Land. But like the good actor he is, it was all a farce and he's back to his old ways again– which is ultimately going to cost him at the contract negotiating table. Ramsey got into a verbal confrontation with Ravens cornerback Marcus Peters on the field following the Rams beatdown loss against Baltimore on Monday night and then had to be restrained from going after Peters in the tunnel following the on-field skirmish. After the game, Rams CB Jalen Ramsey was being restrained by Rams personnel in the tunnel while shouting at Ravens players and staff going into their locker room. @NBCLA pic.twitter.com/UD7j9R1ycF— Kenny Holmes (@KHOLMESlive) November 26, 2019This follows a…

data-mm-id=”_sysnd0xw2″>The Carolina Panthers seem to have made a decision about their quarterback situation. According to Ian Rapoport, new coach Matt Rhule and his coaching staff like the way Cam Newton's rehab is going and they are content waiting for him to return. #Panthers coach Matt Rhule and his staff have been encouraged with how Cam Newton has treated his rehab and how intent he is to get back to top form. He’s spent plenty of time in town. With so much to rebuild in other areas, having a legit starter in place eases the transition. https://t.co/LIvqQDj5b5— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 25, 2020This could be sincere. It's tough to find a legitimate high-level quarterback in the NFL and the Panthers have one under contract this season. If Newton will be healt…

With UFC 249 going down this weekend and the interim version of McGregor's old lightweight title on the line, it got us thinking about McGregor's future. The Irishman is keen to fight again and before the coronavirus pandemic he had planned for three fights in 2020. After a brilliant 40-second destruction of Donald Cerrone, McGregor's options looked wide-open. The 31-year-old the most interesting man in MMA and easily the biggest draw in the sport. Here's a look at five potential opponents for McGregor as the UFC ramps back up.Jorge MasvidalMasvidal appeared ticketed for a bout with UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman just a few months ago. That fight failed to materialize and…

data-mm-id=”_pkdx543qf”>At 11:54 p.m. ET Sunday night, Donald Trump took a break from whatever else he had going on to take a shot at NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Twitter. Trump is clearly perturbed after Goodell essentially approved of his league's players protesting during the national anthem in a video the commissioner released on Friday.Here's the tweet:Could it be even remotely possible that in Roger Goodell’s rather interesting statement of peace and reconciliation, he was intimating that it would now be O.K. for the players to KNEEL, or not to stand, for the National Anthem, thereby disrespecting our Country & our Flag?— Donald J.

data-mm-id=”_35hsv539w”>The social justice movement permeating the sports world over the last week means that everybody and anybody will be asked for their thoughts on the current state of the country. This extends to even horse trainers. Barclay Tagg, trainer for 2020 Belmont Stakes winner and Kentucky Derby hopeful Tiz the Law, was asked about the protests currently taking place across the country following the shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Tagg didn't have much to offer on the subject, except to say that, to him, it seems like rioters can shoot at anybody but can't be shot at. Barclay Tagg, trainer of Ky Derby favorite, asked about concerns over protests, just said: "I don’t know what these guys are going to do, these rioters, Who knows? All I know …

data-mm-id=”_uq4yz8b7u”>Rumors have been circulating for a few days connecting the New York Knicks to a trade centered around Chris Paul. Giving up anything to build around a 35-year-old point guard due to make $85.5 million over the next two seasons would be a foolish move by the Knicks. While Paul was great this season, he's not worth the money he'll be paid and New York isn't close to contention. In the scenarios being discussed, the Knicks could move multiple young players and draft picks to secure Paul. While R.J. Barrett has not been mentioned, Kevin Knox, Frank Ntilikina and others have been. Plus, the Thunder would almost certainly want at least one first round pick added in, which could hinder any building New York wants to do.Paul revived his career during the…

data-mm-id=”_0zy037p4p”>Editor's Note: This piece originally ran on Jan. 26, 2020Kobe Bryant seemed more alive than the average person. He approached every day and every task with a white-hot intensity that sparked all in his orbit. With a lifetime of achievement behind him, he had so much life left to live. His second act was just beginning, with real potential to become more impactful than his first.At 41, he's gone far too soon. Bryant was larger than life but constrained by its inevitable reality. We are haunted today by the reality that all lives, no matter great or small, come to the same conclusion. And that conclusion can come any time, for anyone. When the most invincible among us cease to be, our own vulnerability is deafening. Paralyzing. It stops us cold in our tr…

data-mm-id=”_9p1yz0738″>On Monday, Dan Le Batard ignited a debate that raged across NBA circles by expressing his firmly-held belief that Tyler Herro is better than Tyrese Maxey. The pair of Kentucky guards are currently linked through Damian Lillard trade talks as the Miami Heat have reportedly offered up Herro and boatload of draft picks in exchange for the All-NBA guard. The Philadelphia 76ers, on the other hand, have refused to include Maxey in any trade discussions.Thus the question is posed– who is better? Maxey or Herro? Liam McKeone and Ryan Phillips found themselves on opposite sides of the argument in The Big Lead's Slack chat and, at the urging of their coworkers, took things public.Ryan Phillips: Would you like to fire the opening salvo, Liam?Liam McKeone: Sure, Ryan.…

data-mm-id=”_g7mr87xry”>The Washington Commanders lost an extremely ugly game on Sunday, a sentence that has been written many times over the last few years and will continue to be written many times until there are major changes within the organization. And there appears to be nobody more sick of it than star defensive lineman Jonathan Allen. Speaking to reporters after losing 14-7 to the New York Giants, Allen's frustration bubbled over and he told the media that he's "f—-ing tired of this bullsh-t" and that it's been the same thing for all of his seven-year career with the team. He's not wrong, but still — not a great thing to hear!Jonathan Allen is not happy after Commanders loss. "They whupped our ass, plain and simple." pic.twitter.com/7…
