The #Packers have spent a lot of money to put up additional walls around their practice field and this year hired additional ushers to prevent fans (or scouts/spies) taking video of practice. Here’s why.
Haaland bought a rare manuscript that tells the story of Norway and their eventual conversion to Catholicism.
He bought the Heimskringla saga for 1.3 million Norwegian kroner (around £100,000 / $134,000) and donated it to his hometown library.
Written by the medieval Icelandic scholar Snorri Sturluson, the manuscript is a foundational text detailing the history and legends of Norway’s early Norse kings.
It includes the reign of King Olav Haraldsson (St. Olav), the monarch who historically solidified Norway’s conversion to Christianity
“Best quarterback” debate naturally brings team accomplishments and accolades into the comparison convos
However
“Best thrower” I’ve ever seen — distance, velocity, touch, ball placement, timing, on the run, under pressure, etc — is Aaron Rodgers
Felix Nmecha found the net for Germany… but his celebration said even more than the goal.
After scoring, he symbolically laid down his crown, a reminder that every gift, every victory and every moment of glory ultimately belongs to Jesus.

Portugal's team jersey in the Fifa World Cup is Christian. It features:
>The Cross of the Order of Christ, the same cross Portugal used in the age of discovery.
>The five small blue shields in the center represent the five Moorish kings defeated in the Reconquista
>Inside each of the blue shields are five white dots, which symbolize the Five Holy Wounds of Christ and the 30 pieces of silver used to pay for our salvation.
Portugal is a deeply Catholic country 🇵🇹✝️
It's unreal to believe Micah Parsons would play 14 games without ever being held.
Seeing stuff like this reminds how ludicrous the officiating really is.
David waited 12 years. Abraham waited for 25 years. Joseph waited 13 years. Noah waited 120 years. Amen if you are waiting for something right now, God’s time is the best.
When I was Muslim, I used to ask Christians:
“If Jesus was really God, why did He eat, sleep, and bleed like us?”
And honestly, I used to ask it with pride like it was some unbeatable argument.
But later I realized something:
That question was not exposing Christianity.
It was exposing my misunderstanding of what kind of God Jesus claimed to be.
Because the real question is not:
“Why would God become weak?”
The real question is:
“What kind of God would willingly step into human suffering at all?”
Islam taught me about a God who was distant and untouchable.
But Christianity introduced me to a God who stepped into hunger, exhaustion, grief, pain, betrayal, blood, and suffering with us.
And suddenly His humanity stopped feeling like weakness to me.
It became proof of love.
If Jesus ate, it means He came close enough to experience hunger beside us.
If He slept, it means He embraced the exhaustion we carry.
If He bled, it means He did not stand above suffering watching us from a distance.
He entered it Himself.
Philippians 2 says Christ emptied Himself and took on flesh.
Not because He stopped being God, but because He wanted humanity to finally see what God is actually like.
And it turns out God is willing to suffer for the people He loves.
That changed everything for me.
Because every other religion demanded sacrifice from humanity.
Jesus became the sacrifice Himself.
And no prophet in history ever claimed that.
