Four Mistakes the Bears Can't Afford to Make in the 2026 NFL Draft

In this story:
The annual NFL draft is usually a glorified guessing game for the league's general managers, especially beyond the first few picks. They have to hope that their scouting departments did a good job of evaluating players, then trust that these players will live up to expectations. For the Chicago Bears, general manager Ryan Poles struggled to find impact starters early in his career, but that changed with the Bears' 2025 NFL draft class.
The Bears are going to need a similarily dominant draft class from Poles

Oil futures tumbled on Tuesday after President Donald Trump announced a two‑week ceasefire with Iran, offering a rare moment of relief for energy markets rattled by weeks of war and threats around the Strait of Hormuz, but the administration will have to tread carefully if they want those benefits to trickle down to American consumers.
The Trump administration has been plagued by an economy that's falling well short of Americans' expectations for the president. It's contributing to the drop his approval

From rockets to cancer research, here's how the number pi is embedded in our lives

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Math nerds and dessert enthusiasts unite to celebrate Pi Day every March 14, the date that represents the first three digits of the mathematical constant pi.
Representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, pi is approximately equal to 3.14159 — but its digits go on forever. In school, you might have used it to calculate the area of a circle or the volume of a cylinder. But the applications of pi are endless and part of every corner of our world.
