The Patriots are set to play Aaron Rodgers twice this season now that the four-time NFL MVP plays within the AFC on the New York Jets. But it doesn’t sound like Rodgers ever came close to playing 17 games with the Patriots this season.FS1’s Craig Carton reported earlier this offseason that the Patriots pursued Rodgers before the Jets made a deal with the Green Bay Packers for the 10-time Pro Bowl selection. Belichick didn’t seem aware of the report when asked about it by WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” on Monday morning.Related ArticlesNew England Patriots | Bill Belichick honors Tom Brady even before Patriots’ Week 1 tribute New England Patriots | Patriots coach Bill Belichick updates Isaiah Bolden’s injury, explains cancelling joint practices New England Patriots | Patriots-Packers film review: Mac Jones makes subtle progress and 29 more takeaways New England Patriots | Patriots&...Bill Belichick honors Tom Brady even before Patriots’ Week 1 tribute

So we’ll just take it day to day. Just take it day to day. But certainly (he) seems a lot better today than it looked like Saturday night, so that’s a good thing.

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Life in the capital of war-torn Ukraine seems normal on the surface. In the mornings, people rush to work holding cups of coffee. Streets are filled with cars, and in the evenings restaurants are packed. But the details tell another story.Numerous buildings across Kyiv bear the scars of Russian bombardment. Sandbags are stacked around monuments, museums and office buildings to protect from possible attack. At nights, streets are empty after the midnight curfew comes into force. In restaurants, diners chat about life, friends and jobs and discuss whether they liked the Barbie or Oppenheimer movie better, or which concert they might attend. But such conversations can suddenly turn to stories about burying loved ones, or how they hid during the most recent missile attack or how they adjusted their schedule to balance sleepless nights and the need to be productive at work.“Death has become a very routine part of our life,” said Aliona Vyshnytska, 29, who works as a ...WWE’s WrestleMania 40 ticket sales show strength of the brand months before 2-day event

In one day, ticket sales for WrestleMania 40 topped the all-time total gross record of $21.6 million set by this year’s WrestleMania 39.The blockbuster ticket sales come on the heels of this month’s SummerSlam, which had ticket sales of $8.5 million, the largest amount for any non-WrestleMania event ever.WWE’s WrestleMania is the Super Bowl for the sports entertainment company. The company successfully shifted it to a two-day event during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and has kept that model in place. Much like NFL fans with the Super Bowl, wrestling fans will travel from all over to attend a WrestleMania event and make a full weekend of it.
