Speed kills regardless of the sport. During Tuesday’s Champions League match, Dortmund’s new wonder-boy Erling Håland showcased his blistering speed during a box-to-box sprint. How fast is Erling Håland compared to Tyreek Hill from the NFL?
Håland has some scary speed, that much we learned from this insane burst from the Norwegian teen on Tuesday.
The 2019-20 NWSL offseason has been loaded with weddings, but the latest one may have upstaged them all based on the Kealia Ohai wedding pics plastered all over social media.
Orlando Pride teammates Ali Krieger and Ashlyn Harris were married at a lovely Miami wedding with many of their USWNT colleagues in attendance on Dec. 28. A week before that, Portland Thorns keeper Adrianna Franch married her partner, Emily Boscacci.
The life of a kicker in the NFL is rough. Apparently, it’s even worse for XFL kickers.
And we here at The18 are all for it.
Admittedly, we’re not paying much attention to the latest iteration of the XFL. More American football? Really? We’ll tune in for Gerard Pique’s girlfriend during the Super Bowl halftime show, but when it’s the D.C. Defenders and Seattle Dragons? Hard pass.
A championship for a professional team, no matter the sport, isn’t complete without the victory parade that follows. Recently, the Kansas City Chiefs had an underwhelming turnout for their Super Bowl party, but how did it compare with other victory parades? The only way to find out is to compare Super Bowl vs. Champions League celebrations.
On Wednesday, the Chiefs celebrated their Super Bowl 54 title in front of, well, some fans.
On Sunday, America’s most-watched sporting event will take place. This year viewers will have to tune in to FOX to watch Super Bowl 54 between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers. This means our ears will be graced with the absolute beauty of the NFL on Fox theme song.
There are those who believe that kickers have no place in the game of American football. In fact, the revamped XFL is doing away entirely with the tedious extra-point process. But take one look at the last two Super Bowls and it’s obvious that the sport’s showpiece event often comes down to which placekicker sucks less.
When Patrick Mahomes attended Whitehouse High School in East Texas, he was more than just the most popular kid in school. He was without a doubt the most popular kid in the entire region of the Piney Woods.
Sure, his dad, Pat, a former MLB pitcher from nearby Lindale, was famous, but it quickly became clear that Patrick would soon surpass him.
The Super Bowl is around the corner, a time when all Americans gather around a TV to shovel nachos into their mouths while drinking copious amounts of beer, all under the guise of watching that abating sport called American football. Of course, all anyone really cares about, besides the food and beer, is the commercials, and we got our nacho-covered hands on the latest 2020 Budweiser Super Bowl ad on Thursday.
Major League Soccer is trying to become a big player in the world of eSports. The Philadelphia Union aren’t helping much right now.
Wolverhampton forward Adama Traoré is one of the fastest soccer players in the world. The 23-year-old Spaniard has clocked in at a blistering 23.61 mph in training and has reached speeds of 22 mph in games.
Traoré’s physique is what separates him from other speedsters like Kylian Mbappé and Mohamed Salah. The Wolves forward stands at 5-10, but weighs 159 pounds, the majority of which is muscle.
