Venom is one of the most beloved villains in the Spider-Man universe. He made his film debut in Sam Raimi’s underdog sequel Spider-Man 3, but the role was miscast with Topher Grace and he shared the plot with two other villains. Since then, fans have been wondering whether or not they’d ever see the two together onscreen again, and most evidence has pointed to a big, disappointing ’no.’ Now Kevin Feige, Marvel Studios President, is here to give fans hope with five simple words: “I wouldn’t rule anything out....
Garnett: two years, $16 million. Duncan: two years, $10.4 million. Both 39-year-olds have player options next summer.

Harvick, who started from the pole and led a race-high 63 laps, questioned his team’s strategy for when he pitted and the number of tires he took. MORE: Johnson strategy wins | Michigan results | Season finale not moving | He was catching Jimmie Johnson when the checkered flag flew, not having enough laps to make up the difference in what wasn’t his desired strategy at Michigan International Speedway.

NXT growing and their live event during WrestleMania 31 Week: “It was pretty amazing. To see 4,500 people come out just for NXT without even knowing the matches, was amazing.

In case you didn’t know… Johnson and Pietersen had multiple run-ins on the cricket pitch, most notably during the 2013-14 Ashes, when Johnson was spewing venom with the ball. The left-arm pacer was in the form of his life during that series, picking up 37 wickets and troubling most of the English batsmen during Australia’s 5-0 drubbing of the visitors. It was the last series Pietersen played for England, after which his squabble with the England Cricket Board (ECB) put paid to his hopes of making a comeback....

Word the league was postponing its fall sports season — perhaps to the spring, perhaps to never — had leaked out all over Twitter during the half-hour before he was interviewed by host Dave Revsine.

Baines, Barkley and Lennon to be assessed. Romelu Lukaku is also a doubt,” Martinez told reporters on Friday. When asked if any of the injuries were long-term, the Spaniard added: “It’s a matter of hours and not weeks....
He considered not accepting–formally, in so many words–his party’s nomination at its Boston convention. Here is why he considered doing that, and why it is too bad he flinched. From the moment each candidate accepts his nomination, until Election Day, he can spend only the $75 million in public funds he is allotted. But the Democrats’ convention is five weeks earlier than the Republicans’, so Bush has five extra weeks to hoard his $75 million and spend his privately raised contributions....

The 30-year-old Warriors forward is expected to become a free agent after the season and he has widely been linked to the Knicks. But Durant’s friend and former teammate Kendrick Perkins thinks Los Angeles is a contender to add the star. “Don’t be surprised if KD signs with the Clippers,” Perkins told FS1. “Everybody keeps screaming New York but do not be surprised if KD signs (with Los Angeles).”...
“I’m from Washington, D.C. I went to Oklahoma City for eight years. Out of nowhere, I went to the Bay for three years,” Durant told The Athletic. “I’ve been roaming my whole life.
