Soccer is one of those sports that reminds us to never say never. And on Saturday, August 17, 2024, that lesson hit home once again. The Colorado Rapids didn’t just face off against the top-ranked, reigning Liga MX champions, Club América—they silenced the Mexican giant in a showdown that had all the makings of a classic “David versus Goliath.” What started as an ordinary night turned into a legend in the making, with the once-dismissed Rapids muscling their way into the tournament’s final four.

CHICAGO (AP) — The United States will play an exhibition against Mexico on Oct. 15 at Guadalajara in what could be the second match for Mauricio Pochettino, who is negotiating to become the Americans’ coach. The U.S. plays Canada on Sept. 7 at Kansas City, Kansas, and New Zealand three days later at Cincinnati in its first matches since a first-round exit at the Copa America led the U.S. Soccer Federation to fire coach Gregg Berhalter. Mikey Varas, a Berhalter assistant, is likely to be in charge of the team for the September games. If a deal with Pochettino is finalized, his first match behind the bench could be at Oct. 12 friendly against Panama at Austin, Texas. The U.S. has not played a friendly in Mexico since 2012. The Americans have a seven-game unbeaten streak against El Tri.

The Green Bay Packers were utterly embarrassed on national TV Sunday night, dropping their second preseason game, 27-2, to the Denver Broncos. It couldn't have gone much worse for the cheeseheads, who saw both their backup QB options falter as the defense gave up quality drive after quality drive to Bo Nix.

In addition to collecting more than 8,000 used needles in the past year from Denver drug users, the Harm Reduction Action Center passed out 10,000 meth pipes and “snort kits,” according to a newsletter sent to its supporters Thursday. They also connected about 1,700 people to medical, mental health and substance abuse treatment.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter.

Unironically, a World Series victory for the Yankees really is right in front of them in 2024. The rest of MLB has fallen back to the very same pack that New York's roster has demoted them to. Even a brief surge could be the differentiator here, and could encompass an October heater that gets the troubled Yankees back to the promised land. It really is possible.
