Now that the Denver Broncos are reporting for training camp, fans will likely get a more inside looks at the team's new training facility. While some introductory pictures were released by the team in mid-July, the first interior video of the facility has been shared on Instagram by Kayla Jones, wife of Broncos defensive lineman D.J. Jones.
The video captured several never-before-seen areas of the new building. Some of the new areas shown include an in-house barbershop (complete with an orange and blue striped barber chair), a mini indoor field, shaded table seating on the roof of the building, and a revamped locker room ready for the team.
You can check out Kayla's video, as well as a better view of the Broncos' new barbershop, below.
The $175 million facility, and all its bells and whistles, is a visible sign of the past two seasons of work. The facility was first announced in November 2023 and broke ground in late August 2024. The state-of-the-art campus was funded completely by the Walton-Penner ownership group, and is 30 percent bigger than their old headquarters building, according to the team's website.
The building also is a reminder of the Walton-Penner ownership group's commitment to making the team one of the best in the NFL, both on and off the field. The next big investment in the club will be the team's new stadium, on track to be built at the team's preferred site at Denver's historic Burnham Yard. While finalized plans have not been announced quite yet, the team is committing significant time and energy into the beautification of the area, and community inclusivity. You can see all the updates on the team's stadium website. The biggest remaining hurdle will be the relocation of Denver Water, which is located at Burnham Yard.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — The mass confusion was supposed to be gone by now.
The decisions to sell, buy or stand pat should have been finalized with everyone having a clear direction.
And yet, with just six shopping days left before the Aug. 3 MLB trade deadline, we have less clarity now than at the All-Star break.
The Miami Marlins produced their greatest June (20-6) in franchise history, lost a franchise-record 12 games in a row, staged a dramatic comeback against the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday, and are smack-dab in the NL wild-card race.
The Boston Red Sox, who had the American League's worst record (32-46) a month ago, are cruising now at 55-50, and could be the AL favorites to reach the World Series.

Morgan Stanley kept Alibaba (BABA) stock as a "top pick" ahead of late-August earnings. ****** yst Gary Yu made the call over two weeks after cutting his target to $180 from $190.
That target sits roughly 60% above where BABA shares closed on Friday at $112.14. Thus, Wall Street is telling clients the stock is worth far more than buyers are currently willing to pay.
Yu lowered his Alibaba target in early July. He still kept an overweight rating on the stock.
Other banks pivoted in the same direction. HSBC cut its target to $170 from $176 in July. The bank still maintained its buy rating.
Daiwa moved earlier, cutting to $175 from $200 on June 24. The firm pointed to weak sales during China's 618 shopping festival.

Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke, whose company commands a market capitalization near $154 billion, told his social media followers this week that a tax-tiered voting system—one that would strip voting rights from anyone who pays no income tax—would be a "good system."
That two-word endorsement, dropped into a viral thread, has reignited a debate over wealth, power, and democracy that most Americans thought was settled more than a century ago.
The proposal would invert the founding American principle of "no taxation without representation" into something closer to "no representation without taxation"—and specifically, high taxation. Reactions online split sharply: Some framed it as a provocative thought experiment about aligning fiscal responsibility with political voice, while others called it a naked attempt to legitimize plutocracy by giving billionaires and multimillionaires a formal, multiplied vote over the laws that govern everyone else.
But it also revealed that America is grappling with a political economy debate, as a frozen housing market and an entrenched wealthy baby boomer demographic have many, not just Lütke, arguing that something big needs to change.
The exchange began with a provocation from Lütke: Pension recipients should have their financial futures "locked in and guaranteed," but in return would be reclassified as "dependents" and lose the right to vote—the same way minors can't vote. A reply from "Eric Thor," who claimed to be a retired banking executive as well as "armchair economist and policy wonk," proposed a sliding scale: zero votes for anyone who pays no income tax, one vote for those earning $1–100K, two votes for $100–200K, scaling up in that pattern to a hard cap of five votes for anyone earning $500K or more. The pitch was framed as fairness—reward "representation" for those who "foot the bill" through taxation.

CUMBERLAND – What is now a shopping plaza that includes a Stop & Shop and a McDonald's holds a noted place in American auto racing history: It is the site of the first sanctioned stock car race in the United States outside the South.
Not only would the first stock car races in the North be held in ***** berland, but the national championship would be decided there.
On Oct. 26, 1947, Fonty Flock, of Atlanta, won the national championship race on the one-third-mile, high-banked, paved oval track of the Lonsdale Sports Arena off Mendon Road on the bank of the Blackstone River, just downstream from Pratt Dam.
A crowd of 18,000 watched the seven races that Sunday afternoon, part of a program sanctioned by National Stock Car Circuit head Bill France, who, a couple of months later, would become head of the newly formed NASCAR, the governing body of stock car auto racing.
Only days before the history-making auto races, Lonsdale Sports Arena made history in another sport: The bowl-shaped arena hosted 32,000 spectators in what was the largest football crowd ever in Rhode Island at that time, as Cranston High School beat La Salle Academy, 20-2. The huge crowd snarled traffic for hours in the area.

After narrowly missing out on Birmingham four years ago, Wales' men and women are making Commonwealth Games debuts in the wheelchair 3x3 basketball in Glasgow.
The teams received wildcards after finishing second in their respective qualifying finals.
In a tight-knit Wales squad, the men's and women's team are united in more than one way.
Libi Phillips and Will Bishop met playing the sport at under-14s level and have been together for six years.
Their relationship has blossomed along with their basketball ability.

This is the ninth in a 10-part series of questions facing the Buffalo Bills as they head into training camp at St. John Fisher University.
One of the many things the safety tandem of Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde delivered for the Buffalo Bills during their tenure together was their innate ability to make game-altering plays, namely in the area of turnovers.
They played side-by-side in Sean McDermott's defense for seven seasons and during that time they combined for 38 interceptions, 11 forced fumbles and 10 recoveries, and there were another two picks, three forced fumbles and a recovery in the postseason.
This year, with veteran playmaker CJ Gardner-Johnson joining emerging Cole Bishop in the back end of new coordinator Jim Leonhard's defense, the Bills are hoping they can get a few more big plays from the safety position.
Bishop enjoyed a stellar second NFL season, his first as a full-time starter, when he made three interceptions, two sacks, broke up seven passes and was in on a team-high 85 tackles.

Fraternal twins Iman and Jihan Qamhiyeh have their sights set on playing basketball at the highest level, and their talent is already attracting attention from college programs before they begin high school.
The twins, who recently graduated from eighth grade, have received six Division I offers, according to Buchanan High School head coach Adam Wall.
"Yeah, the word's getting out about their game and how they play," Wall said.
Iman and Jihan, both 6-foot-1, have spent years competing in travel basketball, participating in twice-daily workouts and training in high-level practices. Their dedication has translated into success on the court against top competition.
"One time we were shopping and someone was like: 'Oh are you shopping for college?' I was like, 'I'm in eighth grade,' and they were like, ' What the heck," the twins said.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Ryan Blaney faces a high-stakes weekend in Indianapolis.
He's hoping to put Roger Penske back in victory lane at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and he'd like to add a second crown jewel win to his resume. At the same time, he's chasing a $1 million pay day — if he finishes ahead of surprise finalist Todd Gilliland in NASCAR's second In-Season Challenge.
Blaney's solution is to simplify matters by sweeping both ******* les Sunday with one amazing Brickyard 400.
"We obviously understand what we're going for with the In-Season Challenge," Blaney said before Friday's short practice. "But at the same time, you're trying to win the race. That's the big one here — and trying to win for Roger at this place is incredibly important in our race shop and to everyone on this team. So I've looked at it as like, just go try to run the best race you can and focus on that."
Blaney heads into race weekend as the favorite in the final round of the challenge. The 2023 Cup champion has strung together 11 consecutive finishes of 11th or better, a feat he's achieved in 17 of 21 races this season. Two weeks ago in Atlanta he captured his second win of the year.

S&P 500 member United Rentals (URI) soared on stronger-than-forecast Q2 results after Wednesday's close as Google (GOOGL) got a late-day haircut. The divergent reactions to earnings weren't entirely unrelated.
AI data center construction has helped supercharge earnings for URI, which provides a one-stop shop for large construction projects. Google's plan to keep boosting capital spending suggests the demand environment for heavy machinery will keep shining, even as it may slow the pay-off for AI hyperscalers.
URI stock looks set to clear an early entry buy point at Thursday's open. Google raised its capex outlook for the full year to a range of $195 billion to $205 billion, up $15 billion at both ends. The company confirmed that it still expects CapEx to "increase significantly" in 2027.
Futures Fall As Google, Tesla Skid On Earnings
Results: URI posted second-quarter earnings of $12.76 per share, crushing the FactSet consensus forecast by $1.22 a share. Earnings growth accelerated to 21.9% from 9.6% in Q1 and negative growth throughout 2025. Revenue growth accelerated to 11.8% from 7.2%, as sales of $4.41 billion exceeded $4.21 billion estimates.

The Saudi Pro League (SPL) has confirmed the fixture schedule for the 2026-27 Roshn Saudi League season, with the campaign set to begin on August 13, 2026, and conclude on May 29, 2027.
The 34-round season will feature 306 matches, with the fixture list finalised on Friday following a workshop attended by all clubs. During the session, the SPL presented the scheduling methodology and the wider sporting calendar, while clubs were also invited to submit requests regarding match sequencing and scheduling before the fixtures were approved.
The 2026-27 calendar has been developed against the backdrop of an exceptionally demanding season, with eight RSL clubs competing across four international competitions, alongside FIFA international windows, Saudi Arabia national team commitments and the Kingdom's hosting of the 2027 AFC Asian Cup.
As a result of these overlapping commitments, only 102 available matchdays were available to accommodate the league's 306 fixtures.
To ensure a balanced and competitive schedule, the fixture list was created using 10 key scheduling criteria. Among the most significant are that no club will play more than two consecutive home or away matches, while every club will play one home and one away fixture across the opening and closing two rounds of the 2026-27 campaign.

The Tennessee **** ans will officially begin training camp on July 28th when the veterans report to Vanderbilt Health Football Camp in Nashville. We’re concluding our positional preview with the secondary, cornerbacks and safeties. The **** ans have 17 defensive backs on the offseason roster. General manager Mike Borgonzi made various acquisitions across these positions.
In camp (17): Alontae Taylor, Cor’Dale Flott, Amani Hooker, Kevin Winston Jr., Marcus Harris, Tony Adams, Joshua Williams, Jerrick Reed II, Jalen McMurray, Latrell McCutchin, Jeadyn Lukus, Kendell Brooks, Sanoussi Kane, Erick Hallett II, Bishop Fitzgerald, Keydrain Calligan, Micah Robinson.
Biggest storyline: The **** ans totally revamped the cornerback room, signing Alontae Taylor and Cor’Dale Flott to very lucrative contracts in free agency. They’ll be tasked with being Robert Saleh’s starting boundary corners. This position needed a makeover after trading Jarvis Brownlee and Roger McCreary, and cutting L’Jarius Sneed. Expectations are high for Taylor and Flott.
Most to prove: Both Kevin Winston Jr. and Marcus Harris are sophomores entering the year in starting roles. The **** ans cut Xavier Woods during the offseason to make room for Winston in the starting lineup opposite Amani Hooker. Harris doesn’t appear to have any competition for the nickel role either.
Breakout star: Winston Jr. is probably the correct choice. The former Penn State standout flashed an exciting skill set when he was healthy as a rookie. Winston is entering camp fully available and should make a massive impact next to Hooker in the lineup. He possesses every trait to be a breakout defender.

Economic issues have forced another franchisee of the nation's largest fast-food chain, Subway, to file for bankruptcy protection, as the restaurant sector continues to battle rising costs.
Subway Sandwich Shop franchisee Cherry ****** e Company, which operates three North Dakota locations, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy to reorganize its businesses, according to BankruptcyObserver.

Our new home jersey for the 2026/27 season is here – and there's more physics behind it than you might initially think. The inspiration: the Doppler effect, coined by the Salzburg physicist Christian Doppler. Formula 1 driver Isack Hadjar of Red Bull Racing demonstrates how this principle manifests itself in practice in a video featuring his car.
The dynamic elements on the front of our new kit capture the movement of sound waves – the pitch changes you hear, for example, when a Formula 1 car passes by. Our Red Bulls will give the kit its debut this weekend in their cup tie in Oberwart.
You can get your jersey now at our Bullshop and in our official online fan shop!

Ty Lawson shared his reaction on Thursday after reports about his alleged shoplifting arrest made the rounds on social media, and the former NBA guard didn't hold back in his rant.
In his social media posts, the former Denver Nuggets star claims he experienced racism during his encounter with the police officers in Castle Rock, Colorado, over the alleged incident.
"I'm not going to lie. Being black in America is tough… Being lied by a pasty face white woman wild… stay outta castle rock Colorado!!!!" Lawson wrote on X. "This is the wildest and more racist s–t I been thru."
MORE: NBA offseason report card grades for all 30 teams

He is facing one charge of theft of less than $300 and is due in court for a pretrial conference next month.

It's a new era for LSU football as polarizing head coach Lane Kiffin looks to make a big splash in his first year with the Tigers.
It was a tumultuous year for the Tigers as the team went 7-6 and endured the firing of Brian Kelly in late October before eventually hiring Kiffin for the upcoming season.

Despite that, a hefty recruiting job by the team brought in plenty of star power, including former Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt.
Needless to say, every LSU game this year will be must-see as Kiffin attempts to rebuild the Tigers back into a **** le contender.

Our ****** ysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here.
Performance was driven by accelerated demand for large-scale projects across diverse verticals including data centers, LNG terminals, airports, and hospitals.
Specialty rental revenue grew by 25% year-over-year, validated by the 'one-stop shop' strategy where complex projects require higher service levels and diverse ****** et classes.
Record time utilization and 3.4% fleet productivity enabled the company to outpace original growth expectations despite a relatively flat local market environment.
Management attributed margin resilience to proactive cost discipline in labor, R&M, and delivery, successfully offsetting inflationary pressures and fuel cost headwinds.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a competitive necessity across retail. From personalised shopping experiences and demand forecasting to inventory optimisation and customer service automation, AI is changing how retailers operate and engage with customers.
Yet for many businesses, embracing AI presents a difficult challenge. Investing too slowly risks losing market share, while replacing ageing technology and integrating new systems demands significant time, money and expertise.
The result is a growing technology divide. Retailers with modern digital platforms are moving AI projects from pilot programmes into everyday operations.
Those still relying on legacy systems often struggle to unlock the same benefits because their technology was not designed to support today's data-driven applications. Industry research consistently identifies legacy infrastructure, fragmented data and skills shortages as among the biggest barriers to successful AI adoption.
At the same time, retailers continue to increase investment in AI to improve efficiency, customer experience and decision-making.

Rules are to Wimbledon like lipsticks are to a cosmetics shop: There are lots. After the distracting champagne corks that kept popping through the 2025 final match between Jannick Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, with one landing at Sinner's feet before he was about to serve, we expect a possible ban on mid-match cork popping to come into effect one of these days.
Then, of course, there are the rules of the game, but the rules that we find most interesting are the fashion ones. For example, players at Wimbledon have to wear all-white outfits (except for women, who can wear dark undershorts beneath their skirts). While there aren't technically guidelines for guests' outfits other than a ban on bold logos and political slogans, it's well-known that you should look pulled together if you're attending a match.
Ah, but there is an exception, and that's for those sitting in the royal box, who need to adhere to the tennis club's rules of dresses or skirts for women and suits and ties for men. NB: Though it's not fashion protocol, there is also a rule that states children aren't allowed in the royal box on centre court. The exception? The royal offspring, naturally, back during the 2025 final, that meant that Prince George and Princess Charlotte sat alongside their parents, Prince William and Princess Catherine of Wales. Folks immediately noticed something interesting about Charlotte's look, though: her nail polish, which didn't seem to carry on one specific royal tradition.

For some, polished summer dressing can feel like a challenge. Elements that are too simple can lead an outfit to look overly casual, but add too many bells and whistles and the look can seem forced and overdressed. When looking for summer outfit inspiration that threads the needle effortlessly, no one does it quite like Queen Letizia of Spain, who showed off her prowess for the "just enough, not too much" seasonal outfit at an audience at the Zarzuela Palace.
Welcoming the team behind the documentary Los Nietos del Silencio, the queen opted once again to shop her own closet, rewearing a navy and white dress from Antik Batik. The tiered maxi featured a nigh crew neckline to balance the sleeveless style, with wavy embroidery white accents and white embroidery at the shoulders. Letizia previously wore the style last year when she attended a symposium on women in sports.

To complete her look, Letzia paired the dress with one of her go-to shoe styles, the wedge espadrille. In fact, her name was all over this moderate-heeled navy and white pair—the style, by Picon, is actually named the "Letizia." As per her usual style, Letizia wore her hair in loose waves, and capped things off with a pair of understated gold earrings by Spanish jeweler Isabel Guarch.
The Spanish queen is well-known for rewearing some of her favorite looks, as she displayed today. Just last week, she chose a white, patterned Hugo Boss dress for an event for the Princess of Girona Foundation that she had previously worn out and about twice before. She even decided on a rewear for Spain's Wold Cup-winning match over the weekend, donning a bold red Adolfo Dominguez dress that she first wore last fall.

Hot dogs, peanuts, popcorn, and pretzels have long been staples of the ballpark experience. Yet in Seattle, baseball fans have embraced a snack that surprises many first-time visitors: toasted grasshoppers. What began as a specialty dish at a local restaurant quickly evolved into one of the most talked-about concessions at Seattle Mariners games. The unusual offering not only challenged expectations about stadium food but also introduced thousands of people to a traditional ingredient that has been enjoyed in parts of the world for centuries.
The story begins at Poquitos, a Mexican-inspired restaurant in Seattle led by executive chef Manny Arce. When the restaurant first opened, Arce added toasted grasshoppers, known in Mexican cuisine as chapulines, to the menu as a novelty. Chapulines have been eaten for generations, particularly in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, where they are considered a popular street food and a rich source of protein. Seasoned simply with salt, lime, and chili, they offer a crunchy texture and a savory flavor that many diners compare to roasted sunflower seeds with a hint of spice.
Although the snack attracted curious customers at the restaurant, its popularity reached an entirely new level when the Seattle Mariners expressed interest in featuring it at what is now known as T-Mobile Park, formerly Safeco Field. After sampling the product, the organization decided it would make a unique addition to the stadium's food lineup. The response exceeded every expectation. Fans eager to try something different lined up to buy the toasted grasshoppers, and supplies disappeared almost immediately during games.
What initially seemed like a niche offering quickly became a stadium sensation. Chef Arce expected that his first shipment of approximately 50 pounds would last several weeks. Instead, it sold out in a single day. As demand continued to grow, the numbers became astonishing. More than 300,000 individual servings were eventually sold, requiring well over 1,000 pounds of grasshoppers to keep up with fan interest. On many game days, vendors ran out before the first inning had even ended.
The success of the snack reflects changing attitudes toward food and the growing willingness of consumers to explore unfamiliar culinary traditions. Around the world, edible insects are recognized as nutritious, environmentally sustainable sources of protein that require fewer natural resources than conventional livestock. While many people still view the idea with hesitation, others appreciate the opportunity to experience flavors that are common in different cultures.

MercadoLibre (NASDAQ: MELI) has prospered by transforming e-commerce, fintech, and logistics within Latin America. Investors have bid its stock price dramatically higher since its 2007 debut, as the company brought online shopping, digital financial transactions, and improved logistics to the region.
Nonetheless, the market has punished MercadoLibre stock over the past year, and it now trades at a 30% discount to its 52-week high. Investors appeared to sour on the stock because its profit growth was not matching its robust revenue increases. While getting the earnings trajectory back on track will be a challenge, if it can increase its profit growth rate over the next five years, the stock price will likely soar.

Two issues have weighed on MercadoLibre's bottom line: rising e-commerce competition and an alarming increase in non-performing loans.
E-commerce giants like Amazon and Sea Limited, as well as numerous smaller enterprises, have attempted to chip away at the company's regional dominance. MercadoLibre responded by lowering its threshold for free shipping and making other moves that squeezed its margins.

GE's numbers were stellar, but ****** ysts on the call wanted to know if the growth was sustainable or a supply-constrained peak.
After a 32% run over the past year, GE Aerospace (GE) just gave bulls everything they wanted, reporting 24% revenue growth and raising its full-year free cash flow guidance to a range of $8.9 billion to $9.2 billion. Yet on its latest call, nearly every sharp question from ****** ysts circled a single, nagging worry: is this as good as it gets? They pressed management to prove that the explosive first-half growth was not just a pull-forward, and that GE's supply chain could actually deliver on its large backlog without margins getting crushed.
The core tension for GE is the gap between its promises and its parts. The company sits on a large commercial services backlog of roughly $170 billion, a powerful signal of future revenue. The problem is that the checks are being written today, but the revenue depends on shipping physical goods in a strained supply chain. The clearest evidence of this operational bottleneck showed up in the company's own metrics: spare parts delinquencies, which track orders delayed by material shortages, grew 20% sequentially in the second quarter. If demand is so resilient, why are the fulfillment issues getting worse, not better?
Management's response was to frame the growth as structural, not a one-time surge. The CEO argued that the aging of the global fleet creates a natural tailwind for higher-value shop visits, and that the company's focus is squarely on execution. The issue, as management put it, is "much more a supply-side challenge than it is demand." That is a confident read on the market, but it also openly confirms that the primary governor on GE's growth is its own ability to get parts out the door.
Even if GE solves its supply issues, the next question is whether that revenue will be profitable. The company is delivering a wave of new engines, particularly the GE9X, which carry lower margins and act as a drag on overall profitability. ****** ysts pushed on when, exactly, the high-margin services business would translate into higher company-wide margins.
