As the USWNT move forward with fresh faces, Smith is firmly in place as a major piece in the American attack
It’s hard to imagine the U.S. women’s national team in this version without Sophia Smith in it.

For the first time in 100 years, the United States has won a rugby medal and it came courtesy of the US Women’s rugby 7s team in jaw-dropping, miraculous fashion, all with Flavor Flav looking on.
Say it with me: USA! USA! USA! 
The US women fell to New Zealand in the semi-finals — their first appearance that deep in the tournament ever — but that still meant a crack at a medal later in the day against Australia.
Now, I don’t think I need to tell you this, but the Americans came in as something of an underdog given that rugby is a much more popular game Down Under.

Vincent Goodwill and Jake Fischer talk about Team USA’s win over Serbia in men’s basketball and preview their upcoming game against South Sudan.

The Americans started strong in Paris, flexing their collective muscle in every event, and looking every bit like the best gymnastics unit on the planet.

Here’s how experts graded the Giants trading Jorge Soler and Luke Jackson to the Braves.

This wouldn’t ordinarily be a big deal because Aaron Rodgers has started 224 games in his 19-year NFL career, so he doesn’t need the experience. But Rodgers missed last season, which means we’re closing in on a year away from game action.
And he might take that year up to its very last days based on the New York Jets’ plans for him this preseason.
Rodgers, you see, might not play at all this preseason. That would be a change from last year when he did play in the Jets’ preseason finale against the New York Giants.

Head coach Matt Eberflus confirmed to media we’ll have to wait just a bit longer to see new-look Chicago.

Training camps are heating up around the NFL and that means football is almost here! It also means that media members and players are becoming reacquainted with one another, and not all of those relationships are on solid ground. 
One such relationship, apparently, exists between Tennessee Titans star defender Jeffery Simmons and Tennessee radio host Buck Reising. 
On Tuesday, Reising hosted his daily radio show live from Titans training camp.

The U.S. women’s basketball team got off to a dominant start in the 2024 Olympics by drilling Japan 102-76, but did so in front of an embarrassingly small crowd in Paris.
Team USA’s decision (mistake) to keep Caitlin Clark off of the Olympic roster created a scenario in which fans – specifically new women’s hoops fans brought into the sport by Clark – would check out and not pay too close attention to the American’s efforts in Paris.
