During a postgame press conference in Cincinnati, Joe Burrow said that Mitchell Tinsley deserved his place with actual plays, not just in training.

His one-handed catch in the end zone brought one of his marks. Wide receivers coach Troy Walters said during an interview on August 19, 2025 that Mitchell Tinsley has learned every position and 'never makes mental errors.'

NASCAR to revive racing tradition at Joliet's Chicagoland Speedway in July 2026
NASCAR (Image Source: Getty) NASCAR will return to Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois, within the next couple of weeks during Independence Day weekend. The NASCAR Cup Series will race at the 1.5-mile oval on Sunday, July 5, 2026, after a seven-year absence from the track, followed by the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series on Saturday, July 4. Things are now getting underway with the ARCA Menards Series on Friday, July 3. From a broad perspective, the revival signals a significant strategic shift, with NASCAR swapping out its downtown Chicago street race that it tried a year ago for a Joliet return that's meant to revive mid-season excitement and serve as a nod to the sport's historic footprint in suburbs outside Chicago. Why NASCAR is returning to Chicagoland Speedway Having sat dormant during the pandemic and well beyond due to new priorities towards urban street racing in Chicago, Chicagoland Speedway last morphed into a NASCAR Cup event in 2019. NASCAR, however, is welcoming a return to its more oval-centric traditions in 2026: a model that aligns better with an efficient business operation, consumer demand, and logistical convenience. An anticipated weekend of racing will find Chicagoland at the center of the action: the ARCA on July 3, the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series on July 4, and the Cup Series headlining on July 5, a perfect marquee weekend for race fans celebrating the birth of their Nation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 15 Most Beautiful Women Ever Today's NYC Undo While NASCAR executives assert that intermediate-length oval tracks.

Organizers cited logistical as well as resident feedback factors and other needs for operational flexibility behind the decision to pause the Chicago Street Race, which was scheduled to run from 2023 through 2025. After renegotiations with city officials, the street event will return to downtown Chicago in 2027. At the same time, NASCAR makes another nod toward its evolving footprint and willingness to experiment with new, non-traditional racing venues with a new street-course event in San Diego at Naval Base Coronado joining the 2026 schedule.

"If you got ambition" - Paul Pierce advises men to value loyalty over pretty girls (Image Source: Getty Images) Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce has always been called The Truth, and now he is proving why. On his podcast this week, with co-host Azar Farideh beside him, he gave men advice that made people stop and think. He did not talk about basketball. He discussed relationships, choices, and life. His comments about women, ambition, and loyalty immediately became much discussed online and became one of the most discussed events of the day. Paul Pierce shares life advice with co-host Azar Farideh on podcast On Tuesday, August 19, Paul Pierce joined his co-host Azar Farideh on the new episode of Truth After Dark. The show streamed online, and fans everywhere could tune in. At the 21:19 mark, Pierce paused and spoke with a serious face. 'This is what I got to say today, and this has been on my mind,' Pierce said. He told men to stand tall, stay focused, and avoid being distracted. His tone was sharp. His message was simple. 'Chest up, chin out, men. If you got ambition, if you are really grinding, leave these little pretty girls alone.' The clip quickly spread across social media. Fans cut short videos from the podcast and shared them on Instagram and X. Some laughed, some agreed, and some questioned the way he framed women by numbers. Paul Pierce tells how men should value loyalty over looks By the 22:57 mark of the podcast, Paul Pierce gave more details. He told men not to chase women only for looks. He said many look at Instagram and call a woman a nine or a ten. But, in his words, those ratings do not matter in real life. 'Get you a five or a six,' Pierce said. 'Maybe a seven. Someone who is going to put elbow into it. Someone who will be down for you 100 percent. Someone who will fight tooth and nail with you.' The 47-year-old Celtics champion explained that true value comes from women who stay when life gets hard. He said men should not just chase after beauty, but should also seek loyalty, effort, and heart. His honesty, as always, carried the same energy he showed on the court. The comments sparked fast reactions. One fan said: He Right Don't Let These B******Fade You…2 Pac ..Can't Fade Me Other one said: Old niggas tryna gatekeep the pretty women ain't crazy ??

LeBron James' wife, Savannah James opened up about how they dealt with their teenage pregnancy A few years ago, LeBron James' wife, Savannah James opened up about how the star couple dealt with their pregnancy when they became pregnant at just sixteen years old. At that point, LeBron James had just graduated from high school while Savannah James had just started her senior year of high school. According to Harper's Bazaar, Savannah James was extremely scared when she found out she was pregnant at sixteen. She also feared how it would affect their relationship and how she would reveal it to her family. But it seems it was LeBron James' words that kept her opening. According to Savannah James, at that time, LeBron James reassured her that they would be fine even if they raise their child together. LeBron James said, ''It's not going to slow me down, and it's not going to slow you down. We're going to keep doing what we have to do,'' LeBron James being drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers changed things for him The NBA icon stood up to his promise and was quickly drafted to the Cleveland Cavaliers later and the two soon expanded their family and are now parents to three children. Last year, in September, Savannah James opened up how when things went right in their lives mostly because LeBron James was drafted at the right time. Savannah James said, 'Obviously, LeBron got drafted to Cleveland when we was younger…If I had to ask him, if he was sittin' here…I think that he would say the same in like, 'I don't know what would have happened.' So, thanks Cleveland Cavaliers." The two later got married in 2013 and are now busy raising their three children.
