Day 6 notes - OLB Tuli Tuipulotu participated in... one 7-on-7 rep but did not take part in the remainder of team drills, marking his sixth straight practice with limited participation as his contract situation remains unresolved. - LT Rashawn Slater left practice and spent time in the medical tent before not returning. After practice, Justin Herbert said Slater wanted to get back on the field and was in good spirits afterward. - The offense came out sharp, with Herbert completing his first eight passes before S RJ Mickens broke up a pass.

#Steelers QB Justin Fields on his offensive reps. “It... was kinda tough keeping the legs warm throughout the whole game, not really knowing when you’re gonna get in, but I’m glad I was able to get in for a few plays and help my team out.”show more

🚨 JUST IN: Justin Baldoni breaks his silence for... the first time since the bombshell lawsuit against Blake Lively. This interview was recorded in November 2024, after the It Ends With Us movie premiere and promotional events, but before the lawsuit was filed and The New York Times hit piece dropped. It goes live Monday, February 10, 2025, and I have a feeling it’ll give us a glimpse into what Justin was going through at the time. And knowing what came next, things likely got even worse after Blake Lively’s bombshell allegations went public. Behind the scenes, during this period, tensions were high. Justin was pressured by Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively to release a public statement he didn’t agree with, forcing him to take full accountability for the bad press and production issues. At his own movie premiere, Justin, his family, friends, and team were sent to the basement. Then, during the movie promotion, he was snubbed and separated from the cast. Watch the episode on YouTube: Watch the promo clip, his words hit differently now. ⬇️ #JustinSpeaks #BlakeLively #JusticeForJustinshow more

Oh, since we wanna talk about Selena all the... time I wanna share this story this video is actually my live I was at Church for Wednesday service and Judah was being so funny and in the front row was Justin BIEBER and Selena Gomez making out not caring at all that they were in church and it was so funny because Judah acknowledge that they were making out in the front row. He told them to get a room. Everybody laughed. You would think that would stop them from kissing each other but it didn’t. They were so funny. This wasn’t the only time I also saw them the last time they were ever together April 2018 my sister who has lupus who died in 2023 we were at the service we were right behind Selena we were in the second row. Justin was in the middle row and Haley was all the way on the right sitting with Josh. I wanted to talk to Selena so I could introduce her to my sister cause my sister wanted to thank her for all the research for lupus but Justin and Selena before mass ended left together out the side door. 🚪show more

Notes on today's #Bengals practice, the most competitive and... game-like conditions we've seen so far. - Great back-and-forth with big plays from both sides. Logged six drives for ones-vs-ones and two touchdowns. Burrow connects with Andrei Iosivas and Tee Higgins for scores. - The Higgins TD was a classic back-shoulder high-point in the corner against DJ Ivey. Unguardable stuff. Jay Morrison had a perfect angle on the video. - Tanner Hudson with the play of the day for the 2nd-team offense with a fourth-down TD against a double team from Flacco. - Blitz was working forcing stops with Demetrius Knight and Barrett Carter both coming up with nice plays. 📽️ Another day, another flash play for Colbie Young, although he also dropped a contested catch in the end zone. -Jonathan Allen with a sack. - No Bryan Cook, no Dax Hill, no Jalen Davis (in team) left the DBs a little shorthanded. - Honestly, just a high-level practice for both sides. Starting to see things come together. - Check back for more analysis and plays in The Athletic and on the Growler Podcast camp recap.show more

🚨MURDER AT SPIDER MAN: BRAND NEW DAY 2026 ON... PREMIERE DAY! Group of friends went to the cinema excited to watch the newly released Spider-Man: Brand New Day. A guy sitting next to them had already seen the movie and was watching it again with his female friend. Throughout the movie, he kept telling her what was about to happen and spoiling scenes before they appeared. The group could hear everything, and it completely ruined the experience for them. Eventually, they confronted him. An argument started inside the theater and quickly turned into a fight. People began hitting each other and the whole theater descended into chaos. If you’ve already seen a movie, don’t ruin it for everyone else. Keep the spoilers to yourself.show more

This group of soldiers was jumping out of a... military aircraft with the door wide open high above the ground. They were stepping off the ramp one by one into freefall with their parachutes ready while the rest of the team watched from inside. They look completely calm and professional as they leap out over the clouds and countryside below. I give them props for making it look so easy up there, would you ever jump out of a plane like that?show more

jimin was literally facing the threat of being cut... from the group every week, sleeping 2 hours a night, and bleeding out in the practice room just to keep up with members who trained for years. his hardships were about corporate survival, perfectionism, and the fear of failure as a 17 years old. to look at a kid working himself to exhaustion and label it 'toxic masculinity' just shows you don't know his story at all.show more

Sunggyu really does SO much to support the group... and the members 😭 And he's never one to brag about it; we only find out when the members thank him in public. There must be so much more that he does without us knowing 1. Dongwoo thanking CEO Kim Sunggyu for helping him with his upcoming solo activities 2. Sungjong thanking Sunggyu for helping him with his lawsuit 3. Sungyeol thanking Sunggyu for making it possible for INFINITE to perform together despite difficulties And when it comes to his own stuff, like leaving the group chat when the members were fighting, he played it off on-screen in a funny way, while Dongwoo revealed he was actually quite stressed at the time 🥹 김성규 사랑해 💛 A real leader 🫡 #인피니트 #성규 #김성규show more

The IDF confirms killing two Hezbollah operatives in separate... drone strikes in Lebanon earlier today. The first strike, near the southern Lebanon town of Naqoura, killed Abd a-Sayed, who the military says served as Hezbollah's local representative in the nearby village of Ras al-Bayada, and as part of his role, he was responsible for liaising between the terror group and the residents "on economic and military matters." The IDF says a-Sayed was also involved in efforts to restore Hezbollah military capabilities in the village. The second strike near the village of Nabi Chit in the eastern Beqaa Valley killed Ali Hussein al-Mousawi, who the IDF says was a weapons smuggler for the terror group. The IDF says that as part of his role, "he handled the purchasing and transfer of weapons from Syria to Lebanon," and he also "played a significant role in the reestablishment and strengthening of Hezbollah." "Throughout the past year, the terrorist has continuously smuggled weapons for Hezbollah," the military says.show more

JUST IN: Group of people TIED and BEAT the... 25-year-old Ecuadorean illegal accused of the brutal r*pe of a 13-year-old girl at Kissena Park in Queens The man says he waited all day for him at a store. When he finally arrived at night, he waited for him outside, and other people helped him The group smacked him around and tied him up with a belt “I seen him a few times — he comes to this store to buy stuff,” The man said “I waited for him. I waited the whole day to see if he would come up. He came at night “He came in, we went to buy something, I saw what he was trying to do, he looked back at me. I waited for him to come out the store and dragged him to the floor. A couple people helped me.”show more

So a group of youths gathered for a selfie... to denounce British-backed war criminal and mass murderer and the preferred presidential candidate for the generation of old useless bastards (Boomers and Gen X), William Ruto. In a moment of pure revolutionary brilliance (or terminal stupidity), one of them shouted “Two-Term!” The consequences arrived with biblical efficiency. He was clobbered on the spot. His girlfriend instantly revoked conjugal rights, dumped him via text, and blocked him for good measure. The “sherehe” WhatsApp group ejected him faster than Ruto extrajudicially kills critics and dissenters. He is now reportedly in therapy, staring at the wall and processing the deep depression that comes from having opinions in public. Stay safe out here, legends.show more

Today seemed, IMO, to be a significant statement practice... for Jacob Cowing. He grabbed one of Brock Purdy's numerous (perfect) deep passes but it goes deeper than that. HIGHLIGHTS: 🏈A few minutes earlier, Cowing and Marques Sigle collided on a deep corner attempt. Cowing was down for a while and limped off — it even looked like his day might be over. But Cowing returned and made the best catch I've seen from him in a 49ers uniform on a 40-yard laser over the middle. The resilience there definitely counts for something, especially considering Cowing's early-career availability issues 🏈Nick Bosa sighting! Did some running on the field while the 49ers were practicing for the first time in a couple weeks. Looked good. CMC (tightness) later watched team drills in person 🏈Keion White (adductor) popped the sled during practice, a good sign of progress 🏈Purdy's top-notch camp continues. He's driving the ball, he's layering the ball, he's hitting deep shots, he's been money on the gimmes, and he's escaping when needed. Many crisp connections between Purdy and the Mike Evans/De'Zhaun Stribling duo — #15 caught a TD vs Deommodore Lenoir 🏈Will Cowing be the 49ers' top punt returner? He caught several reps today. Notably, Jordan Watkins — coming off a very good showing in the preseason opener at WR — muffed one and was upset about it 🏈D-linemen CJ West and Titus Leo both left practice early with injuries 🏈Best 1-on-1 work of rookie OT Enrique Cruz Jr.'s young career came today. Held up well vs Ogbo Okoronkwo and Xavier Thomas. Progress! 🏈Rookie WR Will Pauling catch a nice red-zone TD from Jones, beating Jack Jones in coverage 🏈Rookie DT James Thompson Jr. remains an active presence. Good run stop today. Also had rookie LB Jaden Dugger with a run stop. Tall young LBs, including Larry Worth, continue getting good shine 🏈George Kittle said he's hitting top speeds and has a chance to play Week 1. He praised TE Luke Farrell's growth within the offense in Year 2 — thinks he'll have a big year (Farrell caught a couple more passes today) 🏈Klay Kubiak doesn't believe QB Kurtis Rourke's rib injury will keep him out for a long time. Kubiak said the 49ers deemed Rourke to be better than a 7th-round talent but think he was still available there because of the ACL tear he played through in 2024 🏈This was Malik Turner's most productive offensive practice. Caught a deep one from Purdy vs Upton Stout and also a TD from Mac Jones on a play fake earlier 🏈Jones to Deebo on a rainbow deep pass: Nice play 🏈Final play of practice — the last camp session with fans at the 49ers' facility this year — went to the defense. Very nice Upton Stout PBU against Stribling in the end zone The 49ers will travel to LA tomorrow and conduct a joint practice with the Chargers Tuesday. Brock Purdy … Justin Herbert Mac Jones … Trey Lance Kyle Shanahan … Jim Harbaugh Klay Kubiak … Mike McDaniel Good work coming!show more

Crazy day. Forward Hospitality Group holiday party tonight (hospitality... groups can’t have holiday parties when everybody else is booking their venues for their own so have to do later). Anyway, every year we book a surprise performer for the party. Today I woke up to a call that the guy we booked for tonight, not naming names, Soulja Boy, was having a bad day and missed his flight. (For context, last year we booked Sean Kingston and like a week later he got indicted) anyway again, he then missed another flight and I knew it was gonna be a cancellation. Had to pivot. Couldn’t disappoint our staff that flew in from all over the country only to freeze their asses off in coldest Floridas been in 30 years. So we phoned in every favor and I somehow pulled a horseshoe out of my ass and convinced Rick Ross to fly in, perform, and fly out. He’s the fuckin man. Crushed it, so much funshow more

NEW: Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker fires back after Serena... Williams called him out during the ESPYS. Williams said on stage during the event that "we don't need you," singling out Butker for his pro-Catholic speech. Butker has since responded. "I thought Mrs. Williams was a great host and applaud her for using her platform to express her beliefs on a variety of topics. Sports are supposed to be the great unifier." "And at an event dedicated to celebrating a diverse group of men and women who have accomplished great feats, she used it as an opportunity to disinvite those with whom she disagrees with from supporting fellow athletes."show more

YoungBoy Never Broke Again has pledged to pay for... the funeral of a Louisiana girl who was killed in an accidental shooting earlier this month. Kimani Thomas, 10, was accidentally shot by a younger relative in Baton Rouge, La., on March 10 and later died from her injuries. Thomas' mother has revealed that YB has offered to cover the cost of the young girl's funeral. "I know Baton Rouge love to say all the bad things people do.
