The idea of the show was simple: bring people from all walks of American life and culture together—sports, politics and entertainment—and let the guests go at it on the topics of the day.

Disney, it turns out, handed Maher his death sentence for comments he made on his show on September 17, 2001....

This episode continues the story following Kate’s departure to Mike’s side. Read on for a spoiler-free review of the new episode of Billions....
By firing him but keeping Doug Whaley, the general manager they inherited in 2014, they’ve made it clear that they are happy with his job and with the players he’s brought in … and that they need to be coached up better.

After testing positive for the virus on Tuesday, several reports confirmed Beasley was placed on the Bills’ reserve/COVID-19 list.

Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen took their Game of the Year rematch Sunday down the to the wire, with the Bills earning a 24-20 win in the late moments. Allen led a signature drive that was capped by an outstanding touchdown grab from tight end Dawson Knox on a well-thrown ball by the Buffalo QB. Neither team led by multiple scores in the game. In fact, the game played out exactly as CBS’s Tony Romo predicted in the first quarter: a surprisingly low-scoring game where each team repeatedly landed body blows....

As expected, Darrah makes clear that BioWare has no plans to implement cross-play in Anthem. He doesn’t clarify why that is, whether it be due to platform balance disparity or technical obstacles, but there doesn’t seem to be any room for reconsideration at this point. Relatively few games have managed cross-play effectively, beyond Microsoft who has a very specific ability to provide such a service. Moving on to cross-platform saves, Darrah’s answer was much less finalized....
