Washington Commanders - English
One of the biggest surprises of 2024 was, without a doubt, the Washington Commanders, who made it all the way to the NFC Championship Game-largely thanks to their wise decision in the Draft to select Jayden Daniels. He had a spectacular year and won the Offensive Rookie of the Year award.
Now, the Commanders, along with the Philadelphia Eagles, are set to engage in a fierce battle for the NFC East. Although the Eagles crushed the Commanders in the playoffs, the team from the U.S. capital has taken a step forward and is now a true contender aiming for big things in 2025.

In 2025, Daniels completed 69% of his passes for 3,568 yards, with 25 touchdowns and nine interceptions during his rookie season. In the playoffs, he threw five touchdown passes and only one interception-falling just short of reaching the Super Bowl.
Kliff Kingsbury Praised Jayden Daniels
Kingsbury, a known offensive specialist and now the offensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders, is living a dream leading a true NFL star like Jayden Daniels.

“You can see that he already feels comfortable this year,” Kingsbury said in his press conference. “I mean, just watching him move around, he’s not thinking as much anymore, he’s playing fast and letting his natural gifts take over-and that’s exactly what we want to see.”
On the other hand, Kingsbury hopes that, with help from the entire team, Daniels will continue to thrive in the same offense, even taking on decision-making responsibilities on certain plays.
“Yeah, it’s huge,” Kingsbury said about that factor. “Being able to take ownership of the system and understand it inside and out-to the point where he’s correcting others, doesn’t even need the coaches. And he’s getting to that point.”
So, it’s expected that Jayden Daniels will take another leap and confirm what we saw from him last season. The Commanders’ fan base is truly excited and hopes this doesn’t turn out like a little over a decade ago, when Robert Griffin III was also Rookie of the Year but gradually faded away-mostly due to injuries.

Novo campeão argentino: Platense vence Huracán após ‘ceifar’ gigantes; conheça time que nasceu de aposta em cavalo
Era esperado que a final da primeira fase do campeonato argentino neste domingo seria de emoções. De um lado, o Huracán, que havia vencido a competição pela última vez há 52 anos. Enquanto, do outro, o Platense, que buscava o título inédito — agora conquistado — em sua história. Para isso, os dois times precisaram viajar mais de mil quilômetros até Santiago del Estelo, no Norte da Argentina, onde se enfrentaram no Estádio Único Madre de Ciudades, casa do Central Córdoba. O que se viu em campo foi um duelo equilibrado, com poucas chances de gol, mas o suficiente para dar o primeiro título argentino na história do Platense, que ofuscou o adversário após marcar seu gol. O campeonato mudou seu formato neste ano. Os pontos corridos foram substituídos pelo mata-mata. Os rebaixamentos em 2024 foram cancelados, para que a […]
Bill Belichick’s UNC contract buyout dramatically reduced. What does it mean?
<!--> When Bill Belichick agreed to become North Carolina's next head football coach in December 2024, many were surprised for a variety of reasons. There was one thing in particular that stood out about his five-year, $50 million contract that called into question Belichick's long-term fit with the program. The buyout on his contract would dramatically decrease on June 1, falling from $10 million to $1 million. As that detail became known, many speculated just how invested Belichick, 73, was in remaining in Chapel Hill for the long haul.However, the curiosity surrounding that date in Belichick's contract gained further attention for a different reason over the past month. Belichick's relationship with his girlfriend, 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, has drawn national headlines, leading some to speculate whether UNC would be willing to cut ties with him at some point this offseason.That said, June […]
Neymar contesta primeiro cartão amarelo após expulsão contra o Botafogo: ‘Como tem juiz ruim’
Neymar levou o primeiro cartão no fim do primeiro tempo, por falta dura em Jair. Já na segunda etapa, tentou marcar gol usando a mão, levou o segundo e acabou expulso.

Em postagem pouco antes, Neymar pediu desculpas aos torcedores e companheiros pelo toque de mão, que atribuiu ao "desespero de fazer gol", parabenizou os companheiros e assumiu a responsabilidade pelo resultado. O Botafogo marcou poucos minutos depois de sua expulsão, com Artur.
Liberty Strikes Back: New York’s WNBA champs clap back at trolls dismissing their title
Fresh off a WNBA championship and riding high with a booming fan base, the New York Liberty didn't hold back this weekend when a Boston-based account tried to drag New York sports. After the Knicks were eliminated from the NBA Eastern Conference Finals by the Indiana Pacers, the account posted: "New York hasn't won a major sports championship since 2011."Cue the Liberty's clapback-just a single yawning emoji, but the message was crystal clear: don't erase women's accomplishments.The post ignored not only the Liberty's 2024 WNBA title but also NYCFC's 2022MLSCup victory. The phrase "major championship" was doing some heavy gatekeeping-implying that women's basketball and soccer don't count. But the Liberty and their growing fanbase are proving that kind of thinking is long outdated.Pinterest reinforced Liberty's pointAs if to punctuate their rising influence, the Liberty just inked a landmark partnership with […]
