After Lampard proved himself with the Hammers, many Chelsea fans regarded him as a waste of money after the Blues signed him for £11 million in 2001. However, the criticism never stuck and the son of West Ham’s legendary Frank Lampard Snr went on to prove everyone wrong....

The Colts addressed a need with the Gilmore signing, after trading cornerback Rock Ya-Sin to the Las Vegas Raiders for Yannick Ngakoue. Xavier Rhodes, another starter from last year, is still a free agent. With Gilmore off the board, the pool of top NFL free agents gets a little shallower. On top of that, there aren’t many teams with the money to make the short-term offers teams often make at this stage of free agency....

The newly appointed Ole Miss coach complained about the way the Trojans treated him in a recent episode of “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd.

He was famously fired at 3:14 a.m. on the LAX tarmac the next year. “The thing that bothered me the most is that I wasn’t graded on a fair scale,” Kiffin said....

Lara revealed that Sammy was one of the last two players he decided to select in a 14-man squad after ignoring suggestions to pick two other players whom he claimed were ill disciplined. “I remember picking Darren Sammy; not for his cricketing ability, but for the way he carried about himself,” said Lara, the former West Indies captain. “We were going to play in a tournament in England and we had 14 players to pick and after 12, the two players they were asking for I didn’t want on the team, because they weren’t going to play, but I knew they were going to be very destructive....

He also refuted a journalist that said that this season was a failure. “I can’t see why people see Atleti winning the European Super Cup and is fighting for second place in La Liga and people consider it a failure”. In the overall picture, the team known for having their knife between their teeth suffered a death from the assassin that vanquishes all comers with a thousand paper cuts. The overall performance of Los Colchoneros will be overshadowed by the result and how it virtually locked up the league for the Blaugrana....
