Packers vs Eagles SNF Prop Bets: Rodgers and Co. Get Dismantled

The Philadelphia Eagles got back to their winning ways last week and get a great matchup Sunday night vs. a very injured Green Bay Packers team. Philly has been getting hit hard on the ground of late but with the injuries to Aaron Jones and the Green Bay offensive line, can the Cheeseheads even take advantage as 6.5-point road dogs?

Eagles vs Seahawks MNF Prop Bets: Tyler, the Creator

The Seattle Seahawks’ four-game losing streak has turned this Monday Night Football odds showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles into a must-win game for the hosts — but key injuries and illnesses are making it trickier than usual to navigate the NFL player props market.

The latest NFL odds have this pegged as a high-scoring battle, and that should mean plenty of red zone trips. But, with Geno Smith and Jalen Hurts both listed as questionable, this Week 15 battle could yet come down to a clash of backup quarterbacks.

The plot thickens further with both teams in a rut and looking to rebound after disappointing Week 14 losses. Despite the uncertainty in the air, I’ve picked out three tasty props for our NFL picks ahead of a big night at Lumen …

Antonio Conte talks up Tottenham ambitions after checking in as manager

Antonio Conte said he was determined to turn Tottenham back into contenders for trophies after being confirmed as the club’s new manager on a £15m-a-year contract to June 2023, with an option to extend. The Italian, who won the Premier League with Chelsea in 2017, replaces Nuno Espírito Santo, who was sacked on Monday.

The Spurs chairman, Daniel Levy, felt that he had to act after Saturday’s 3-0 home loss to Manchester United and he rekindled his interest in Conte, who he had tried to hire in June as the permanent successor to José Mourinho.

Yoenis Céspedes Smacked This One To Mars

The Mets jumped out to a hot start to the year, but they didn’t have much help there from Yoenis Céspedes, who entered today hitting .195/.258/.354 after striking out in more than 40 percent of his plate appearances. But forget all that for now, and just enjoy this towering dinger that he delivered in the fifth inning of tonight’s game against the Cardinals: A moment of silence for that poor baseball, please. …

Grierson & Leitch's Best Films Of 2014, Part 2 (Nos. 5-1)

It's the final week of 2014, so we're wrapping the year up the usual way: with lists! Friday, we each gave you our five worst movies of 2014. Yesterday, we counted down the bottom halves of our Top 10s. Today: both our Top 5s.
Here goes: Leitch
5. Birdman (directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu). Annoying, obnoxious, and almost suffocatingly self-satisfied … and still just about as much giddy cinema-dork fun as you can possibly imagine. I tend to dismiss most of the tortured-artist themes here and embrace the overwhelming fear and insecurity, but your mileage may vary. But this is such a riotous, virtuoso piece of filmmaking—a pulsating ode to just freaking going for it, man—that it doesn't really matter. Michael Keaton and Edward Norton are both fantastic,…
