BRESEE! New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe didn’t miss just one, but two field goal attempts Sunday against the New York Giants. But luckily for him, Saints defensive tackle Bryan Bresee saved him and his team with an unbelievably athletic play while Giants kicker Graham Gano was trying to tie the game up to potentially send things into overtime. (RELATED: Jaguars’ Evan Engram Slapped With $11K Fine After Punishing Dirty-Hitting, Palestinian-Loving Azeez Al-Shaair: REPORT) With just seconds left to go in the contest, Breesee went over the line of scrimmage with a giant hop, blocking Gano’s field goal attempt to lock up the 14-11 victory for New Orleans . The Giants only needed three more points to put the game into OT, and with New York setting themselves up for a 35-yarder after a smooth drive ( 10 plays, 56 yards ), it looked like we were in for some extra football. But my man Bresee had different ideas, showing off his athleticism in the process. WATCH: Kick is no good.

Ruben Amorim has admitted are “going to suffer for a long period” as the players try to adapt to his methods during the season. United got off to a blistering start in Amorim’s first game as the club’s new head coach when Marcus Rashford scored after just 81 seconds . But equalised through the impressive Omari Hutchinson shortly before half-time and United were indebted to goalkeeper André Onana for making two outstanding saves to deny Liam Delap and secure a 1-1 draw. Amorim claimed his players were guilty of “thinking too much” as they wrestled with his new 3-4-2-1 system and fresh information and warned that there will be difficult moments ahead during the transition to a different structure and set-up in mid-season. “I know it’s frustrating for the fans but we are in this moment with a lot of games [to play],” he said. “We are going to suffer for a long period and we will try to win games. This will take time. We have to win games but we could lose if it was not for Onana so I think we have to understand that and think and be pragmatic that these guys had two days to train to change so much. “It’s hard to expect anything now. It’s not a surprise but you have to see it in game. That’s why I was a little bit anxious because you cannot understand what will happen in the game. I felt that. “They were thinking too much during the game and that is normal. We started very well but then we should have more possession with the ball, kept the ball and sometimes we had the ball in defence and the rest of the guys were too stuck because they were thinking: ‘Where should I be?’ “So this is the first point. When we make a new structure and you are so clear on that, they need time to have some fluidity in the game and I felt that. But it’s two sessions and I felt they did OK.” One of the severe drawbacks for United of changing manager during the season is Amorim has little time to work with his squad on the training pitch. If United overcome Spurs in their Carabao Cup quarter-final tie on December 19, Amorim will have one blank midweek – straddling New Year’s Day – until the end of January and not until the end of February if they fail to finish in the top eight of the Europa League and face additional games. Amorim admitted it would be a case of learning on the job and a lot of rotation of players in an effort to get them all to grasp his methods. “We have to find a way,” he said. “I think the only way to do it is we have games and the guys that don’t play have training. Everybody is going to play, everybody is going to be on the bench, so they have the feeling of the game but they need to train. “With this schedule we need to rotate the team so we will try to use that to train, to improve the team and to win matches. Without the time we have to find the time, I think this is the only way some of the guys are going to play. “Some of the guys in the next day will work on our idea and then they will change their position. “What I understood today is they are really trying. They stay in the positions, they receive the information and they try to use it in the game, that is very important. Even in the difficult moments I felt they were doing the things we wanted them to do.” Amorim acknowledged there were players, such as Diogo Dalot, who were now being asked to do the opposite of what they were being instructed to do previously under Erik ten Hag. “They are thinking too much because things are so different,” Amorim said. “Some details – like they used to pass the ball and go forward, even the centre-backs. Now they have to go back. It’s these type of things – they start going forward and they have to think too much. “Dalot used to pass the ball to centre-backs, then go inside, play as a midfielder, now he has to stick to this position [out wide as a wing-back]. It’s hard for the players in three days to cope with everything but if we talk about the structure I think that’s why I was brought here in the middle of the season. “We try to cope with the things they are used to doing. Next year in the same stage we could be here with the same problems. Or we start now, we risk a little bit, we suffer a little bit and in the next year we will be better at this point so we have to risk it a little bit. “They are thinking too much because we are changing so much with two training [sessions]. When we want to listen to a lot of you guys that Manchester United doesn’t have a structure, we will have a situation where you see a structure and you will say that: ‘But, oh, it’s not fluid.’ “This is like steps. We have to put in the heads [of the players] the structure. When they stop [over] thinking about the structure they will play so much better. But we need time to do that and during this time we have to manage to win games. That is very important and I know that.” Kieran McKenna, the Ipswich manager, believes his side are making clear progress and could have won but for Onana. “On another day we could have won it but if you concede an early goal the game could have run away from us, so credit to the players,” he said. “As the half went on we got more aggressive and more brave. It’s pretty clear we are making progress. “We have been pretty consistent across the 12 games. Considering where we have come from to only lose five of the 12 games is pretty good.”
Defence has narrowed down the options for the new general purpose frigates that will be built at Henderson to either a Japanese or German design. Depending on which is chosen, the first three will be built overseas by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries or Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems, while the Henderson precinct is overhauled to allow the rest to be constructed locally. The Government announced on Monday it had whittled its shortlist down from four options to these two shipbuilders in a highly competitive tender process. Mitsubishi is offering one design and Thyssenkrupp has two. The Japanese Mogami design is 133 metres long while the German MEKO-A200 is 121 metres. Both options would carry maritime and land strike missiles, submarine detection technology, air and self-defence systems and be able to operate MH-60R marine combat helicopters. Defence Minister Richard Marles thanked Germany, Japan, South Korea and Spain for their efforts in supporting the bid process, saying Australia saw their commitment as a reflecting of the strong relationships with those countries. “We acknowledge the extraordinary achievement of each of these companies in manufacturing platforms recognised by the independent analysis team as the best of their kind,” he said. The acquisition of new general purpose frigates – smaller than the Hunter and Hobart class ships – is part of a plan to more than double the size of the Navy’s fleet, drawing on the Defence strategic review and surface fleet review. The work building them is expected to cost at least $11 billion and support thousands of skilled jobs in WA. Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy said the program was moving at pace to make sure the Navy got the ships it needed. The first of the new frigates is expected to be delivered in 2029. “The rapid, accelerated work of the general purpose frigate program to date underpins the next stages of the acquisition to ensure this capability is delivered this decade, providing our Navy with enhanced anti-submarine and anti-air warfare capabilities,” Mr Conroy said.

Aussie sevens star crowned world’s best
Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) was once known as a software-as-a-service company that did most of its business with the government. But in recent times, the company, along with increasing its revenue from government contracts, has also seen its commercial business growth explode. How did this long-established player suddenly supercharge its revenue? Well, it's a combination of the platform Palantir built over its 20-year history and its more recent jump into artificial intelligence (AI) . In fact, thanks to Palantir's launch of its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) last year, we could call the company one of the early winners of the AI boom. Demand for AIP has taken off, and earnings have followed, with the company recently reporting its highest quarterly profit ever. So, it's no surprise investors have flocked to the shares, driving them up more than 280% this year. Are You Missing The Morning Scoop? Wake up with Breakfast news in your inbox every market day. Sign Up For Free » After this sort of performance and an increase in valuation, though, you may wonder whether it's too late to get in on this growth story. Should you buy Palantir right now? Let's consider what Wall Street has to say. Using data to make game-changing decisions First, though, let's talk a bit about Palantir's path so far. Through its platform, the company helps customers aggregate their data and use it to make better decisions. The results could be game-changing, helping companies, for example, become more efficient and achieve huge cost savings or even launch new products and services. And AIP, harnessing the power of AI, has become particularly popular among government and commercial customers. This has resulted in double-digit revenue growth for Palantir and impressive trends in the commercial business. Just four years ago, the company had 14 U.S. commercial customers, and today, it has grown that to nearly 300. This is compelling for two reasons. The pace of growth shows Palantir's platform greatly interests these customers, and the number of commercial customers today leaves plenty of room for growth well into the future. What we can see in figures from the recent quarter also supports the idea of growth now and down the road. In the three-month period, Palantir's U.S. commercial revenue soared 54%, and U.S. government revenue rose 40%. This shows the strength of the company's new growth driver -- the commercial business -- as well as the government business it's relied on for years. So, Palantir is firing on all cylinders, and we could expect this to continue since AIP's launch was rather recent. Forecasts show the general AI market has much growth ahead. Analysts expect today's $200 billion AI market to reach $1 trillion by the end of the decade. Palantir's $1 million deals Palantir has also spoken of high demand for AIP, and deal values are increasing. In the recent quarter, the company has closed more than 100 deals with a value greater than $1 million. All of these points are positive and may encourage investors to get in on the stock now. But Wall Street isn't so optimistic about the share performance to come. The average analyst estimate calls for the stock to drop 40% from today's level over the coming 12 months, and most analysts have a hold recommendation on the shares. This isn't necessarily due to a loss of faith in the company -- it's more about valuation. This year's gains have left Palantir trading for 175 times forward earnings estimates, a level that may look pretty steep -- even for a growth stock. So, Wall Street doesn't recommend buying Palantir right now. Now, the big question is: Should you follow Wall Street's advice? No one can predict stock performance with 100% certainty, but the current valuation may limit Palantir's near-term performance -- and the stock might not deliver outsize gains in the weeks and months ahead. Investors who are very cautious or focused on value probably shouldn't pile into Palantir right now. That said, earnings projections used in the above valuation measure don't consider earnings a few years down the road. Palantir's future looks bright, and the company seems to be on the path to long-term revenue and profit growth. This means that even after Palantir's triple-digit gain this year, the stock still has plenty of room to run over the long term, making it a great AI stock for growth investors to buy now.

NEW YORK (AP) — Chuck Woolery, the affable, smooth-talking game show host of “Wheel of Fortune,” “Love Connection” and “Scrabble” who later became a right-wing podcaster, skewering liberals and accusing the government of lying about COVID-19, has died. He was 83. Mark Young, Woolery’s podcast co-host and friend, said in an email early Sunday that Woolery died at his home in Texas with his wife, Kristen, present. “Chuck was a dear friend and brother and a tremendous man of faith, life will not be the same without him,” Young wrote. Woolery, with his matinee idol looks, coiffed hair and ease with witty banter, was inducted into the American TV Game Show Hall of Fame in 2007 and earned a daytime Emmy nomination in 1978. In 1983, Woolery began an 11-year run as host of TV’s “Love Connection,” for which he coined the phrase, “We’ll be back in two minutes and two seconds,” a two-fingered signature dubbed the “2 and 2.” In 1984, he hosted TV’s “Scrabble,” simultaneously hosting two game shows on TV until 1990. “Love Connection,” which aired long before the dawn of dating apps, had a premise that featured either a single man or single woman who would watch audition tapes of three potential mates and then pick one for a date. A couple of weeks after the date, the guest would sit with Woolery in front of a studio audience and tell everybody about the date. The audience would vote on the three contestants, and if the audience agreed with the guest’s choice, “Love Connection” would offer to pay for a second date. Woolery told The Philadelphia Inquirer in 2003 that his favorite set of lovebirds was a man aged 91 and a woman aged 87. “She had so much eye makeup on, she looked like a stolen Corvette. He was so old he said, ‘I remember wagon trains.’ The poor guy. She took him on a balloon ride.” Other career highlights included hosting the shows “Lingo,” “Greed” and “The Chuck Woolery Show,” as well as hosting the short-lived syndicated revival of “The Dating Game” from 1998 to 2000 and an ill-fated 1991 talk show. In 1992, he played himself in two episodes of TV’s “Melrose Place.” Woolery became the subject of the Game Show Network’s first attempt at a reality show, “Chuck Woolery: Naturally Stoned,” which premiered in 2003. It shared the title of the pop song in 1968 by Woolery and his rock group, the Avant-Garde. It lasted six episode and was panned by critics. Woolery began his TV career at a show that has become a mainstay. Although most associated with Pat Sajak and Vanna White, “Wheel of Fortune” debuted Jan. 6, 1975, on NBC with Woolery welcoming contestants and the audience. Woolery, then 33, was trying to make it in Nashville as a singer. “Wheel of Fortune” started life as “Shopper’s Bazaar,” incorporating Hangman-style puzzles and a roulette wheel. After Woolery appeared on “The Merv Griffin Show” singing “Delta Dawn,” Merv Griffin asked him to host the new show with Susan Stafford. “I had an interview that stretched to 15, 20 minutes,” Woolery told The New York Times in 2003. “After the show, when Merv asked if I wanted to do a game show, I thought, ‘Great, a guy with a bad jacket and an equally bad mustache who doesn’t care what you have to say — that’s the guy I want to be.’” NBC initially passed, but they retooled it as “Wheel of Fortune” and got the green light. After a few years, Woolery demanded a raise to $500,000 a year, or what host Peter Marshall was making on “Hollywood Squares.” Griffin balked and replaced Woolery with weather reporter Pat Sajak. “Both Chuck and Susie did a fine job, and ‘Wheel’ did well enough on NBC, although it never approached the kind of ratings success that ‘Jeopardy!’ achieved in its heyday,” Griffin said in “Merv: Making the Good Life Last,” an autobiography from the 2000s co-written by David Bender. Woolery earned an Emmy nod as host. Born in Ashland, Kentucky, Woolery served in the U.S. Navy before attending college. He played double bass in a folk trio, then formed the psychedelic rock duo The Avant-Garde in 1967 while working as a truck driver to support himself as a musician. The Avant-Garde, which tourbed in a refitted Cadillac hearse, had the Top 40 hit “Naturally Stoned,” with Woolery singing, “When I put my mind on you alone/I can get a good sensation/Feel like I’m naturally stoned.” After The Avant-Garde broke up, Woolery released his debut solo single “I’ve Been Wrong” in 1969 and several more singles with Columbia before transitioning to country music by the 1970s. He released two solo singles, “Forgive My Heart” and “Love Me, Love Me.” Woolery wrote or co-wrote songs for himself and everyone from Pat Boone to Tammy Wynette. On Wynette’s 1971 album “We Sure Can Love Each Other,” Woolery wrote “The Joys of Being a Woman” with lyrics including “See our baby on the swing/Hear her laugh, hear her scream.” After his TV career ended, Woolery went into podcasting. In an interview with The New York Times, he called himself a gun-rights activist and described himself as a conservative libertarian and constitutionalist. He said he hadn’t revealed his politics in liberal Hollywood for fear of retribution. He teamed up with Mark Young in 2014 for the podcast “Blunt Force Truth” and soon became a full supporter of Donald Trump while arguing minorities don’t need civil rights and causing a firestorm by tweeting an antisemitic comment linking Soviet Communists to Judaism. “President Obama’s popularity is a fantasy only held by him and his dwindling legion of juice-box-drinking, anxiety-dog-hugging, safe-space-hiding snowflakes,” he said. Woolery also was active online, retweeting articles from Conservative Brief, insisting Democrats were trying to install a system of Marxism and spreading headlines such as “Impeach him! Devastating photo of Joe Biden leaks.” During the early stages of the pandemic, Woolery initially accused medical professionals and Democrats of lying about the virus in an effort to hurt the economy and Trump’s chances for reelection to the presidency. “The most outrageous lies are the ones about COVID-19. Everyone is lying. The CDC, media, Democrats, our doctors, not all but most, that we are told to trust. I think it’s all about the election and keeping the economy from coming back, which is about the election. I’m sick of it,” Woolery wrote in July 2020. Trump retweeted that post to his 83 million followers. By the end of the month, nearly 4.5 million Americans had been infected with COVID-19 and more than 150,000 had died. Just days later, Woolery changed his stance, announcing his son had contracted COVID-19. “To further clarify and add perspective, COVID-19 is real and it is here. My son tested positive for the virus, and I feel for of those suffering and especially for those who have lost loved ones,” Woolery posted before his account was deleted. Woolery later explained on his podcast that he never called COVID-19 “a hoax” or said “it’s not real,” just that “we’ve been lied to.” Woolery also said it was “an honor to have your president retweet what your thoughts are and think it’s important enough to do that.” In addition to his wife, Woolery is survived by his sons Michael and Sean and his daughter Melissa, Young said.
