When you think back to Ronaldinho, the outstanding dribbles are, of course, the first thing that comes to mind. Anyone who thinks that this skill was only part of Ronaldinho's repertoire in the past is greatly mistaken.
The Brazilian is still skillfully making his way around today. And watching it is still a lot of fun.

Titans embrace Callahan's competition hoping to boost performance, accountability and wins

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Drop a ball, lose points. A red zone touchdown catch isn't worth six but still nets points. Jump offside earns a deduction. Lose a wide receiver in coverage also hurts. The Tennessee Titans don't kick off coach Brian Callahan's second season until Sept. 7 at Denver. With the Titans going 3-14 and losing the final six games, Callahan made some changes all designed to help Tennessee win more in 2025. The biggest new offseason feature is an internal competition. Callahan broke up the Titans into eight teams with a captain and assistant with rankings updated daily. Teams earn — or lose — points for what they do particularly on the field. For pro athletes, that's all they needed to hear. Outside linebacker Dre'Mont Jones, an offseason free agent signee going into his seventh NFL season, said Wednesday that the Titans are '100%' bought into Callahan's offseason competition. Jones said everything they do is a competition, keeping energy high. 'We need that competition,' Jones said. 'We have a young football team. We need to keep that edge and that competitive (approach) throughout the whole entire offseason leading into the season.' Tennessee lost six games in Callahan's debut season by eight points or fewer. Combined with a roster stocked with 48 new players, this competition is designed to have the Titans hold each other accountable for mistakes including turnovers, penalties and mental errors that prove so costly in an NFL season. Callahan knows this won't show results that matter until September and October at the earliest. This is all part of his focus on doing everything possible for the Titans to be better. 'A lot of it was kind of through this offseason program that we developed and how do we best win football games? And how do I best put our team in position to do that? How do I coach that better? And how do I do a better job from a leadership perspective for our players and our staff?' Callahan said. Jones is on a team captained by running back Tony Pollard who likes how Callahan also mixed up assignments in the locker room. No longer are position groups sitting together. Wide receiver Calvin Ridley is next to rookie quarterback Cam Ward. 'You got to talk to different guys, get to know people throughout the locker room,' said Pollard, who now has cornerback L'Jarius Sneed and defensive lineman Keondre Coburn to the right. 'So it's just, it's a great thing just connecting with the whole team.' That talking isn't done just inside the locker room. Part of the schedule includes time for each group to get to know each other better by discussing four H's: history, heroes, hopes and heartbreaks. 'That's just a great thing just learning backstories, what guys have been through and what they've had to overcome to be where they are now,' Pollard said. Callahan hasn't shared what the rewards will be for the winners. It doesn't matter. Linebacker Cody Barton, who signed a three-year deal in March, joked that he heard winners got a car and asked for that to be confirmed. A pat on the back also works. Right guard Kevin Zeitler is another newcomer going into his 14th NFL season. He said every NFL team has its own approach to the offseason program with some business-like, others 'super competitive and fiery' with others making it fun. 'Having an extra competition throughout the day to be more on your details. ... it makes it more fun,' Zeitler said. Treylon Burks working Callahan said Treylon Burks, the Titans' 18th pick overall in 2022 as part of the A.J. Brown trade, is doing more in his rehab from a partially torn ACL that limited him to five games and four catches last season. Burks is doing more than Callahan expected at the beginning of the offseason program. Burks is doing more individual drills and routes. Callahan said the hope is Burks will be cleared by the start of training camp. ___ AP NFL:

‘I didn't like the attitude': Thomas Tuchel lays into England squad after drab 1-0 win over Andorra

Thomas Tuchel had some choice words for his side after a listless win over Andorra (AFP via Getty Images) England manager Thomas Tuchel made his displeasure clear after his side laboured to a dull and dispiriting 1-0 win over Andorra, the world's 173rd-ranked side. England had several chances, particularly in the first half, but failed to break down a dogged Andorran defence, only making a breakthrough as Noni Madueke - a rare bright spark - teed up Harry Kane in the 50th minute. Advertisement The captain's 72nd international goal spared England's blushes but they could not build on their lead, with jeers accompanying their exit at half-time and a smattering of boos at the final whistle. A visibly cross Tuchel told ITV after the game, 'We're not happy with the performance, of course. We started quite well in the first 20 or 25 minutes, but that was the only time it felt like it was only a matter of time. 'We created a lot of chances, half-chances and set pieces. But we completely lost our momentum and couldn't get it back from the whole of the first half. 'There was a lack of urgency, quality and energy.' Advertisement The game was held at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona, with Andorra's home ground not deemed ready to host, and England appeared sluggish in the heat as the match wore on. Asked about his debrief to the squad, Tuchel replied, 'It's what I've said to you just now. I told them I was most worried in the last 20 minutes because I did not like the attitude with which we ended this game. It felt almost like [he shrugged dismissively], 'We have to play it until the 93rd minute.' 'It's still a World Cup qualifier away from home. I didn't like it at all. The players know all this because I said it in the dressing-room. 'It's also necessary to have a look in detail, watch the match again, and we will let them know tomorrow what we want from them. Advertisement 'We can just admit it that it's not what we expect from us,' Tuchel continued. 'We need to look at it in detail and do better on Tuesday.' England face Senegal in a friendly next Tuesday, a significantly tougher test against potential opposition at next summer's World Cup. He offered some praise for Madueke, who had the chance to double England's lead late on, but his back-line pass drifted across the front of goal and was then not turned in by substitute Anthony Gordon. Asked whether the Chelsea player had advanced his cause to feature in next summer's squad, the German said, 'He was maybe over the course of the match the most dangerous, the most active. I could feel his hunger and desire to [follow the plan]. Yeah, he was one of the few [to follow it].'

Noah Brown carted off field at Commanders minicamp. Jeremy Reaves gets extended, AP source says

Reporters in attendance reported Brown walked off slowly after making a catch, threw his helmet in frustration when he reached the sideline and was carted up the hill to the practice facility.
