Steelers’ Calvin Austin III Excited To Destroy The Browns: 'We Gotta Beat Them'
The Pittsburgh Steelers compete in one of the most intense divisions in football, the AFC North. Among their rivals—the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, and Cincinnati Bengals—the Steelers have a strong dislike for all three. While they respect the Ravens, they still hold a grudge. The Bengals, though less respected, are still regarded more highly than the Browns. For years, the Browns were seen as the underdogs of the AFC North. However, they’ve recently turned things around and become a formidable opponent in the division. Some experts even believe the Browns could win the AFC North in 2024. Despite their improvement, the Steelers...

Dozens of Local Police Officers Were at Trump’s Rally. Very Few Were Watching a Critical Area.
A key question after an assassination attempt on former President Donald J. Trump a week ago is why the Secret Service excluded from its secured zone a nearby warehouse the gunman used for his assault. But another possible flaw in the Secret Service’s plans for the campaign rally at the...
