So for him to say that Iowa State’s Hilton Coliseum is “louder than any building in the ACC, I’ll tell you that” is saying something. Take a gander at the video. Louder than the Dean Dome. Louder than Cameron Indoor Stadium. O'Brien's 11 words said a lot. Such a strong statement makes one wonder if O'Brien even realized he was being recorded. But the creator of the video, Andrew Schmitz, told SN, "He knew exactly what he was saying....

A group of demonstrators calling for justice for Breonna Taylor were marching along Imperial Highway in Yorba Linda when they were confronted by counter-protesters, according to local news. During the incident, a white sedan drove through the crowd of counter-protesters, which included individuals waving Trump flags....
Soon enough, in director John Favreau’s updating of the Marvel Comics tale, Stark will have a mighty change of heart, both physically and morally. Captured by a power-crazed Afghan warlord (in the comic’s origin tale, created in the ’60s, he was abducted by communists in Vietnam), the badly wounded tycoon is held in a cave, tortured and forced to create his missile for the warlord. Instead, he cobbles together the prototype of his Iron Man suit (how he does this without his captors noticing on their video surveillance screens is a plot point one doesn’t want to ponder too closely) and bursts free....

Antetokounmpo has a case to be the best player left in the NBA playoffs and has already left the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons in his wake, helping the Bucks win their first two playoff series in a total of nine games while averaging 27.4 points.

According to Taylor, Anthem’s Legendary Contracts are quests that will be given by an individual “Agent” from each of the game’s three different factions of Freelancers, Sentinels, and Arcanists. These quests have been designed to give players a chance to learn more about the character who assigned the mission and the faction they represent. Also, Legendary Contracts consist of different quest steps that get changed up each time, include much tougher enemies than usual, and as a result, yield higher-end rewards....
Reportedly, this has resulted in a Javelin with 10 HP bars just to have 2-4, with it varying from mission to mission. Many believe this is somehow connected to a bug with a component, resulting in many overlapping layers with this particularly nasty Anthem bug. This has made playing on GM1 or higher incredibly difficult, as players are legitimately one shot due to their reduced HP. It’s worth mentioning that BioWare has been aware of the issue for some time, but at first believed it to be a UI issue....
In order to farm legendary and masterwork gear, Anthem players will first want to complete the Anthem story and get their gear level up into the 400s. By itself, that process will take a while but players won’t want legendary and masterwork gear until they are in the endgame anyway. Once prepared gear level-wise, load up the mission called Mysterious Beginnings on Grandmaster 1 difficulty. Anthem offers three different Grandmaster difficulty levels and each carries a higher chance of dropping legendary and masterwork gear....
While BioWare did not explain what Anthem’s post-launch story content might look like (new missions?), the emphasis on story content suggests that their will also be some paid DLC for the game. But rather than separate the player base between those that paid for more content and those that did not, BioWare decided to make it all free. Our first hint that BioWare might head in this direction was when the studio announced it would not offer a Season Pass....
Sporting News: There was a time, a long time ago, that people looked at Anthony Crolla and said ‘Maybe he’ll get a shot at the British title and no more than that and he probably wouldn’t win that title either.’ Does that seem like a totally different person compared to how you are now? Crolla: It seems a lifetime ago, but some of that I never forget. I’ve used it as motivation to get me where I am today — challenging for world titles, winning a world title....
Los Angeles reportedly agreed to terms on a blockbuster deal with New Orleans this weekend. It secured Anthony Davis by sending the Pelicans Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart and three first-round draft picks, including the No. 4 selection in this year’s draft. However, the deal could limit their ability to add another star. Acquiring Davis could leave the Lakers with just $23 million in cap space next year if he declines to waive his $4 million trade kicker, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times....
