(NewsNation) — A Colorado woman said she saw a massive Bigfoot "gliding" through the woods in late July, according to a post on the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization's sightings database.
Lori Bowing said she was in the car with her husband, looking for wildlife near Lake City in Hinsdale County, when she saw what she described as a Bigfoot near the edge of the woods. She estimated the figure was between 7 feet and 9 feet tall based on the size of the surrounding trees.
"I saw this critter take 4-5 big gliding steps before it left my view due to the road curve," Bowing said. "Trust me when I say I am not a bigfoot believer, but after what I saw I sure in the ******* am now!"

She added that the figure was dark, blackish brown, with long, hairy arms, and a head that was "kind of molded into the shoulders."

The Philadelphia Eagles took a massive step back last season. From winning the Super Bowl to bowing out in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs, the letdown was massive for the entire team. Given the state of the offense, a lot of the blame fell directly on Jalen Hurts.
Despite his resume, the dual-threat quarterback has been the subject of a ton of criticism. With some obvious flaws in his game, many believe this could be a make-or-break year for him. However, a franchise icon still remains one of his staunchest supporters.
Hurts' resume is hard to match. A three-time Pro Bowler, who finished in the top two in MVP once, the Eagles star has a lot of upsides to his game. Since he became the season-long starter in 2021, the team has never missed the playoffs.
But this past year, the negatives were more ****** ounced than ever. With wide receiver A.J. Brown shouting from the rooftops about the state of the offense, the blame fell squarely on Hurts as they ranked near the bottom of the league in three-and-out possessions.
LeSean McCoy, though, still believes Hurts can be the answer for the Eagles. During the latest episode of "Speakeasy," he offered a comprehensive defense of the three-time Pro Bowler, even comparing him to another elite quarterback, Joe Burrow.

It was a difficult night for the United States men's national team, bowing out of the 2026 World Cup in the round of 16. While the expanded tournament allowed the U.S. to pick up a first knockout win since 2002, it goes out of this tournament in the same round it was eliminated in during the 2022 competition.
U.S. manager Mauricio Pochettino had hoped to become the first manager to lead the U.S. to a quarterfinal since Bruce Arena did it in 2002 but instead oversaw a 4-1 defeat with Belgium comfortably sending the Stars and Stripes out of the tournament they were hosting.
There were still some bright spots Monday, but there also were some players whose stock took a hit. Here are the winners and losers from the elimination game:

Caleb Williams turns doubters Into fuel ahead of Bears' brutal 2026 schedule originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Completion percentage has followed Caleb Williams like a shadow since he entered the NFL, but the Chicago Bears quarterback is not running from that conversation. Rather than deflecting, Williams acknowledged the knock directly while framing it as collateral damage from the unconventional ways he extends plays and creates off-script.
His 2025 numbers back up the noise to a degree: 330 completions on 568 attempts for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns and seven interceptions, numbers that helped Chicago finish 11-6 and capture the NFC North ****** le before bowing out in the Divisional Round.
For a second-year starter on a franchise that had suffered through years of quarterback uncertainty, that turnaround was substantial. Williams won the Heisman Trophy and earned unanimous All-American recognition at USC before skeptics questioned whether his college brilliance would transfer to Sundays. He answered that, too.
What separates Williams from similarly gifted young quarterbacks is not arm talent alone but the psychological architecture underneath it. He told the "Pardon My Take" podcast:

World football shows no mercy on this 1 July 2026. International front pages are bowing to France’s masterclass at the World Cup, while on the domestic front, the Spanish national team fine-tunes its machinery and Barça grabs all the headlines with a historic day of boardroom moves and departures.
The Spanish national team is in the spotlight after the close of the group stage. With Cucurella taking center stage in As under the slogan "We can be unstoppable," the 'La Roja' dressing room is channeling the criticism it has received to arrive fired up and ready for its decisive clash against Austria, according to Sport.
A day of major movement at Camp Nou. Joan Laporta officially begins his third presidential term, facing colossal challenges for the future, such as the completion of Spotify Camp Nou.
On the sporting side, Sport confirms the definitive "Goodbye Ansu": the academy graduate brings his Barça spell to an end and heads to Monaco for 11 million euros.
The World Cup day crowns the big favorites. France swept aside Sweden with a commanding 3-0 win in the round of 32 thanks to a stellar brace from Kylian Mbappé and the magic of Olise, a result that leads the front pages of L'Équipe and Olé and ends the Swedish dream in Sportbladet. Les Bleus now await Paraguay in the next round.

Iran has entered the World Cup under the shadow of war in the Middle East but images shared online purportedly showing Iranian players praying on the football pitch are AI-generated. The pictures contain visual inconsistencies indicative of synthetic content and were flagged as made with OpenAI tools. An AFP photographer who covered Iran's recent matches also confirmed the scene of worship did not happen at the pitch.
"On the World Cup stage, the Iranian football team demonstrated not only their love for football but also deep love and respect for the Quran," reads part of a Bengali-language Facebook post shared on June 15, 2026.
The post includes an image that appear to show Iranian players bowing down to touch the ground to pray -- known as sujud -- before the Quran.
Another image posted on Facebook on June 16 with a similar caption shows what appear to be Iranian players prostrate in a circle with the Quran at the centre.
Similar posts surfaced elsewhere on Facebook as Iran's first game ended in a 2-2 draw against New Zealand on June 15 (archived link).

COLUMBIA, S.C (AP) — A South Carolina jury on Monday found a store owner not guilty of murder in the 2023 shooting of a Black 14-year-old.
The jury returned the verdict for Chikei Rick Chow. Chow, 61, who is Asian, shot Cyrus Carmack-Belton in the back after chasing him from his convenience store in Columbia. He maintained he acted to defend his son.
The killing sent waves of anguish and grief through the African American community in Richland County, where nearly half the population is Black.
After the verdict was read, sobs and cries of distress could be heard coming from Carmack-Belton’s family seated in the gallery. Chow sat silently frozen before slowly bowing his head onto his interlocked hands.
Defense lawyer Jack Swerling said they're very pleased with the verdict but also feel for Carmack-Belton's family.
