Former New England Patriots captain Matthew Slater spoke for the first time to Boston 25 on Monday since Boston College High School announced he'd step in as the Eagles' **** istant head coach of leadership and development.
The three-time Super Bowl champion and retired all-pro briefly coached for the Patriots in 2024.
BC High's head coach Paul Zukauskas said he reached out to Slater after his first season at the helm for the Eagles in 2024.
"I texted him cold," Zukauskas said. "I said, 'I'm... a big fan of your career and what you represent in football. So, if you're ever interested in coaching this level, I'd love to talk to you."
After a year of communicating and sharing ideas about the program, Slater agreed to join Zukauskas' staff for the 2026 campaign.

For three rounds at The Inner Circle 25, three-time Glory Kickboxing World Champion Marat Grigorian reminded everyone exactly why he is one of the sport's most dangerous fighters.
The Armenian delivered a striking masterclass against Russian standout Mamuka Usubyan in Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium this past Friday, August 7, officially booking his ticket into the semifinals of the ONE SAMURAI Featherweight Kickboxing Tournament.
Grigorian walked into fight week supremely confident he had the technical tools to get the job done, and that reminder came exactly as advertised on the subscriber-exclusive spectacle on live.onefc.com.
The Hemmers Gym representative relied heavily on his Dutch-style kickboxing throughout the clash, utilizing heavy punch-kick combinations, relentless forward pressure, and masterful footwork that left his foe with very few answers.
Fresh off his 71st professional triumph and a fourth successive win on the global stage, the 35-year-old took a moment to thank the fans for their unwavering support:

Enes Kanter Freedom is a man who says he should be eligible to play in the WNBA.
WNBA rules state simply that "only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA." They do not clarify if transgender women are eligible, but the league's commissioner stated in a memo that leaders will discuss the topic this week.
Freedom, a retired NBA player, declared his intent to enter the 2027 WNBA draft in two social media videos posted on Friday. Another former NBA player, Royce White, followed Freedom's lead.
White is on Tuesday's Republican primary ballot for one of Minnesota's seats in the U.S. Senate. He failed to win a nomination in 2022 for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 2024, he earned the Republican nomination for a U.S. Senate seat, but lost to Amy Klobuchar in the general election, 56.2% to 40.5%.
"I'm transgender," White told Fox News. "I identify, sometimes, as a woman, for purposes of basketball. I think I'd be unstoppable.

Former Raiders coach Jon Gruden wanted his claims against the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell to be resolved in court. Gruden won. And now he has to fully comply with the court's rules.
The presiding judge suggested on Monday that Gruden has not done so sufficiently.
"I remain concerned with Gruden's, Gruden's side's delays and lack of cooperation, lack of compliance with the rules," district judge Joe Hardy said, via **** le Brigham of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The NFL had complained that Gruden was dragging his feet in the discovery process **** ociated with his lawsuit alleging that the NFL deliberately leaked otherwise confidential emails in an effort to force him out as the Raiders' head coach in October 2021.
"No explanation was proffered by Gruden's side that would address the court's concern about the delays, particularly in light of months ago, when I said, in Gruden's favor and against the NFL's position, we're going forward," Judge Hardy said. "Gruden understandably at least represented to me that their side wanted to proceed expeditiously and has done the opposite of that."

The Chaires-Capitola Little League 12U All-Stars returned home Monday to a hero's welcome after making history with the program's first World Series run in the Little League Baseball Southeast Region tournament.
Players, coaches and families were greeted at their home park following a memorable week in the eight-team, double-elimination tournament in Warner Robins, Georgia.
Representing Tallahassee on one of youth baseball's biggest stages, Chaires-Capitola opened the tournament with back-to-back victories before seeing its season come to an end with consecutive losses. The team fell to Alabama in the semifinals on Sunday in a game televised nationally on ESPN, then was eliminated by Tennessee on Monday morning.
"I think it will take a couple of days to really sink in but like I said to them, I'm super proud of them," Chaires' baseball coach Aleck Del Prado told the Tallahassee Democrat.
"They played amazing baseball all summer long, and it was great competition up there in the Southeast, and we couldn't be more proud."

The Ascension Parish Little League 12U baseball team ended its journey with a 4-1 loss to Texas West in The Southwest Region Championship Game in Waco, Texas.
The Texas team jumped out to a four-run lead in the first inning, but the Louisiana team continued to battle until the final out, as noted by an AP Baseball post.
When the team departed from Gonzales to head to Waco, they were already state champions, region finalists and one of the final teams to compete for an opportunity to represent their region in Williamsport.
"These boys took an entire community on an unforgettable ride," the post read. "They represented Ascension Parish and the state of Louisiana on the regional stage with toughness, heart, sportsmanship and pride."

The Oklahoma City Thunder have developed their team over the decades via the usual ways most teams in the NBA have, finding special success through the NBA draft since their founding as the Seattle SuperSonics. Many of the franchise's top players have joined the team either through direct selections in the annual draft or via trades executed on that day.
On top of this, the Thunder have selected not only several star players through the draft but also a number of notable alumni each offseason. A few colleges have been more prominently represented than others in sourcing those prospects, though OKC has always cast a wide net as well. Both prestigious programs and smaller institutions have consistently contributed high-caliber talent to the Thunder's roster over the years.
So without further ado, let's take a look at every player who has been drafted by the Thunder out of Bowling Green.
Draft year and position: 5th round (2nd pick, 52nd overall), 1968 NBA Draft

Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott have reportedly welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, after largely keeping their relationship out of the spotlight.
TMZ reported that sources with direct knowledge said Plaza gave birth during the final week of July. Neither Plaza nor Abbott has publicly announced their daughter's name or exact birth date.
The 42-year-old actress was photographed carrying the newborn in New York City on August 9 after supporting Abbott at the final Broadway performance of Death of a Salesman.
The reported arrival came several months after Plaza's representative confirmed in April that she and Abbott were expecting their first child. At the time, a source told People that the baby was expected in the fall.
Plaza was photographed outside in New York with the baby bundled in a blanket and wearing a beanie. TMZ reported that the sighting came after Plaza attended Abbott's final performance in the Broadway revival of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman.

The eldest son of U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert has been charged with child **** ual exploitation, authorities in Colorado announced Monday, Aug. 10.
Tyler Boebert was arrested Sunday on charges of **** ual exploitation of a child and multiple other charges, the Garfield County Sheriff's Office said in a news release. Tyler Boebert, a New Castle, Colorado, resident, was arrested following an investigation involving the Garfield County Sheriff's Office and the 9th Judicial District Attorney's Office.
The arrest of the Colorado Republican's son comes as the midterms are just months away. Lauren Boebert first joined Congress in 2021 and represents Colorado's 4th Congressional District, an area covering the eastern part of the state that voted heavily for President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
"I love my son," the U.S. representative told USA TODAY in response to a request for comment. "We take these allegations very seriously and pray for everyone affected during this challenging time."
USA TODAY has reached out to Garfield County authorities for further information on the charges.

Josh Allen is asking Bills Mafia to give Buffalo's controversial new uniforms a chance. The quarterback defended the team's gray "Nickel City" alternates after their unveiling received a mixed reaction across social media, with some NFL fans calling for the return of Buffalo's more traditional designs. For Allen, however, the new Buffalo Bills uniforms represent more than a new color scheme. They are part of a broader reset that includes a new stadium, a new head coach, and a different mentality for the upcoming season.
Thanos / MEGA
Allen addressed the backlash, telling reporters, "Stop hating on the jerseys, guys." The "Nickel City" uniform features an all-gray jersey-and-pants combination with blue accents, creating a significant departure from the Bills' familiar red, white and blue looks.
Allen acknowledged that longtime fans may prefer the franchise's older uniforms and helmets, but made it clear that he likes the new design. "I enjoy them. I think it's very symbolic of what we want to do and what we want to be," he said. "I understand people want the old jerseys and the old helmets and all that."
The Bills described the alternate uniform as a "tribute to the strength, grit and authenticity of Western New York's hard-working people throughout history." Its gray color scheme appears designed to evoke Buffalo's industrial heritage, although that explanation did not prevent social media users from having fun with the look.

EAU CLAIRE, Wisconsin, Aug 10 (Reuters) - When she's not trekking across Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District to meet voters, Democratic congressional challenger Rebecca Cooke is still on her feet, waiting tables at two restaurants around Eau Claire, a city of about 73,000 people surrounded by rolling farmland.
"When you're serving people at a restaurant, it's almost like you're knocking doors every time you're waiting a table," said Cooke, who is trying to flip one of ‌a shrinking number of highly competitive seats in the U.S. House of Representatives in November's midterm elections that could end Republican control of Congress.
Cooke doesn't get into deep political conversations as she takes orders, she said, but customers do sometimes ‌recognize her and tell her about issues they care about, occasionally writing notes of support on receipts. She keeps the best ones in a folder on her phone.
Each of those tableside moments could be a difference-maker for Cooke, 38, the Democratic frontrunner in Tuesday's primary. If victorious, she will head to a rematch with Republican incumbent Derrick Van Orden, who was elected in 2022, in what's expected to be a tight race that could turn on how President Donald Trump's policies have affected rural voters.

Robert Irwin is calling out mainstream media for misrepresenting his family.
The conservationist, 22, spoke about navigating his life in the public eye in an interview with the Something to Talk About podcast released Saturday, in which he recalled a moment when paparazzi took pictures of him after the death of his beloved childhood pet chicken, Piggy.
Irwin said that when he was 16, he was getting off a flight when he learned that Piggy had died. The family had adopted the chicken after the death of his father, conservationist Steve Irwin.
"She was so much more than a chicken," he recalled. "She was 13, and I got the text that she passed away. I got off the plane and there was a bunch of cameras taking photos of me."
He continued: "I was absolutely cut up. I looked obviously very sad and then the reports come out: 'Oh, there's a family rift between Robert and his sister,' or 'Robert's mum is doing this.'"

The data, released in a report from the National Retail Federation (NRF) and Hackett ****** ociates, indicates that major US ports handled 2.23 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) in June, reflecting a 13.2% year-on-year increase as importers moved cargo ahead of newly imposed tariffs and in response to international supply chain uncertainties.
However, this figure represents a modest decline of 0.7% from May, which appears to have marked the year's busiest month with 2.24 million TEU processed.
According to the forecast, July import volumes are projected at 2.21 million TEU, a 7.6% decrease from the same month last year.
For August, the report anticipates a further dip to 2.22 million TEU, down 4.2% year-on-year.
Despite these projected decreases, Global Port Tracker expects US ports to maintain higher import levels than in 2025 for the remainder of the year, although volumes are projected to steadily taper off.

Progressive Rep. Jill Tokuda, D-Hawaii, cruised to victory in her primary on Saturday, setting up a showdown with Republican state Sen. Brenton Awa in November.
Tokuda is seeking a third term representing Hawaii's 2nd Congressional District, which includes the entire state outside the island of Oahu, as well as rural and suburban parts of Oahu itself.
The nonpartisan Cook Political Report rates the district D+12. That means it's highly likely that Democrats keep hold of it in this year's midterms.

DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Russian forces in Syria will give up control of two strategic bases on the Mediterranean coast, which will be used as joint Russia-Syrian training centers under a new agreement between the two countries, Syria's Foreign Ministry said Sunday.
Russia was the top political and military ally of ousted President Bashar ****** ad during the country's civil war between 2011 and 2024. ****** ad was ousted in December 2024 by Islamist insurgents led by current interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa and has since fled into exile in Russia.
Throughout the conflict, the Hmeimem air base and the Tartus naval base were key Russian military outposts in the eastern Mediterranean.
Under the new agreement between Damascus and Moscow, Syria will take control of the Hmeimem air base and the commercial berth at Tartus port as part of its civil administration. The military facilities at both sites will become "joint training" centers, the Foreign Ministry said.
The new arrangements represent a "reorganizing of the Russian presence" along Syria's coast, the ministry said.

WASHINGTON, Aug 9 (Reuters) - Some Taylor Swift songs have been removed from social media videos posted by President Donald Trump's campaign and the White House, which has used two of the ‌American superstar's songs over the past week.
The White House and a representative for Swift did not immediately ‌respond to requests for comment.
Swift has not spoken recently about Trump, although she endorsed his Democratic rival, then-Vice President Kamala Harris, in 2024. During the 2020 campaign, Swift posted on social media that Trump was "WELL AWARE we do not want him as our president."
Trump has repeatedly criticized Swift. After she endorsed Harris, the Republican said on social media, "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" Last year he wrote: "Has anyone noticed that, since I said 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,' she's no longer "HOT?"

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Lawyer Kamalpreet Chohan ran her finger down a list of 57 names of people scheduled to appear during a morning of hearings at the immigration court in California's capital and pointed out one glaring absence.
"None of these folks are represented," she said.
Chohan is the coordinator of a program that sends volunteer lawyers to immigration courts to ***** ist people without representation and help them navigate the complicated legal system where the stakes are a future in America or deportation.
Appearing without a lawyer opens up even greater risk under the second Trump administration, with the courts playing a key role in its mass deportation agenda. Courts are increasingly denying asylum, deportation officers have arrested immigrants in court hallways, the administration has packed courtrooms to cut backlogs and reduced lead time on hearings, prompting people to miss them.
Data shows that legal representation can be vital to winning in court but many immigrants, unable to pay for a private lawyer or find a pro bono one, navigate the system without an attorney at their side.

EXCLUSIVE: Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico bragged in a resurfaced interview that his church had stirred controversy by housing a family of illegal immigrants who were set to be deported by ICE, laughing as he said that "Christianity is just another word for causing trouble."
Talarico, a Presbyterian seminarian who serves as a Democratic state representative, is running against Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for a Senate seat that is critical to both parties.
In a resurfaced clip of Talarico speaking on Texas Impact's "Weekly Witness" show in June 2023, he credited his faith for "why I am in politics." Asked how his faith influences his politics, Talarico pointed to examples of his church advancing progressive causes, saying, "Justice is just love out in public."
"Our church was really active in LGBTQ rights in the '90s. We caught some attention by letting an atheist join our church in the 2000s, and then in the 2010s, again stirred some controversy by housing an undocumented family, a mother and son, who were close to being deported by ICE," he said. "That was the tradition that I was brought up in. It's what led me to teach public school students on the west side of San Antonio, led me to run an education nonprofit and then led me to run for office."

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy generally involves liquidation, but it doesn't necessarily mean the end of the businesses or brands connected to the person or business who filed.
Big Lots, for example, filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and was liquidated, but some of its stores and the right to use its name were sold to Variety Wholesalers. That transaction gave Variety Wholesalers the right to reopen between a quarter and half of the chain's roughly 800 stores.
In many cases, however, in a Chapter 7 filing, the brands go away. When it comes to Nick Pihakis, who owns Pihakis Restaurant Group, it's unclear whether any of his company's many restaurants, some of which have already closed, will survive.
The case was filed by Pihakis individually, not by Pihakis Restaurant Group or any affiliated LLCs. Huntsville attorney Kevin Heard of Heard Ary & Dauro is representing Pihakis.
Pihakis has a long list of creditors that has gotten longer since TheStreet last reported on his situation in May.

Jabari Smith Jr. is known as the Houston Rockets' "Swiss Army Knife" for his versatility. He is an elite defender and can guard any position. Whether he is guarding the perimeter or protecting the paint, he consistently disrupts the opposing team's offense.
Last season, he totaled a career-high 71 total blocks. He also had 56 total steals, earning himself a 114.2 defensive rating. These impressive numbers represent how crucial a role he played for Houston's defense, which had the third-best-ranked defense in the entire NBA.
On the offensive end, he is a solid spot-up shooter. Last season, he averaged 15.8 points per game, while shooting 45% from the field and 36.3% from deep. However, his ball handling skills were one of his weak spots.
An important metric to represent this weakness is by looking at his field goal percentage after x amount of dribbles. He shoots at 44.8% when he is in a catch-and-shoot motion (0 dribbles). There is a major dip when he has two dribbles before shooting, as his field goal percentage then drops to 36.5%. His field goal percentage drops even further to 28.9% when he takes three or more dribbles before shooting.Improving in this area would surely elevate his game, and he is committed to doing so.
He recently stated: "I definitely want to get better and more comfortable at handling the ball this year. Being able to handle and relieve that pressure from Fred (VanVleet) and the other guards who have to handle the ball the whole game. I'm trying to improve every aspect (of my game), but I feel like ball-handling is the area where I can take the biggest jump. I'm trying to just get stronger with the ball. Not necessarily doing a million moves, but being strong with it and being able to get to my spots. I think that'll open my game up a lot."

Frankie Grande is making clear that his sister Ariana Grande has his support as she prepares to step back from public-facing work after completing her Eternal Sunshine Tour.

Christopher Lambert canceled his planned return to Steel City Con after collapsing while meeting fans at the Pennsylvania convention one day earlier.
The 69-year-old Highlander star became ill while signing autographs at the Monroeville Convention Center outside Pittsburgh on August 8. A witness told TMZ that Lambert suddenly collapsed before he was transported from the convention by ambulance.
His representative later said Lambert was "perfectly OK" and resting at his hotel, attributing the episode to low blood sugar after the actor had slept poorly and eaten very little. Steel City Con separately said he had become overheated and dehydrated.
Organizers initially announced that Lambert would return on August 9 for photo opportunities and a panel. That plan changed shortly before his scheduled arrival, when the convention said he was still not feeling well and needed additional rest.
Lambert was signing autographs during the second day of Steel City Con when he became ill. According to TMZ, a witness said the actor suddenly collapsed and was then taken from the convention hall by ambulance.
