5 d. ago Why are members of the Super Bowl champion Eagles promoting a right

Saquon Barkley and other Philadelphia stars lent their names to Life Surge, a controversial faith-based financial seminar. What were they doing there?The thousands who gathered on Saturday at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia weren’t there for a basketball or hockey game. Instead, the 21,000-seat arena played host to a very different spectacle. The stage was bathed in lights, Christian pop thundered from the speakers and the congregation filed in to hear not just sermons, but also strategies: how to get right with God and get rich doing so.The headliners were five current and former members of the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. Head coach Nick Sirianni, star running back Saquon Barkley, second-year cornerback Cooper DeJean, and longtime fan favorites Brandon Graham and Brian Dawkins all appeared on promotional materials for Life Surge, a touring Christian financial seminar that promises attendees a blueprint “to grow and use wealth for Kingdom impact”.

1 week ago Maresca tells Chelsea players European trophy can build ‘winner mentality’

Manager sets sights on further success after comebackPalmer: ‘It is a good feeling for us and the fans’Enzo Maresca said Chelsea can use winning the Uefa Conference League as a springboard for future success after Cole Palmer fired his team to a 4-1 victory over Real Betis in Wednesday night’s final at Stadion Wroclaw.Palmer, who was named player of the match after a stunning performance in the second half, was at the heart of an inspired comeback from Maresca’s young side. The 23-year-old produced gorgeous assists for Enzo Fernández and Nicolas Jackson as Chelsea, who were already on a high after qualifying for the Champions League last weekend, fought back from 1-0 down and claimed their first trophy since being bought by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital three years ago.

1 week ago Chelsea and Cole Palmer storm back at Real Betis to win Conference League

There were 65 minutes on the clock when a chill spread around Stadion Wroclaw and Real Betis’s flame fizzled out. That was the moment when Cold Palmer finally emerged, decided that enough was enough and took an icy hold on a final that was in danger of running away from Chelsea. That was the moment when disaster was averted, Betis’s hopes of winning the Uefa Conference League faded and it became clear that Todd Boehly, Behdad Eghbali and the rest of Chelsea’s leadership team would be on the pitch at full time, drinking it all in after claiming their first piece of silverware in the men’s game since their takeover in 2022.The predictability of the outcome did not make the feeling any less sweet for Boehly and Eghbali after a season that began with their differences getting a very public airing. Really, though, this was all about one very special individual. There have been countless signings under this Chelsea ownership but none as smart as the £40m spent on buying Palmer from Manche...

1 week ago Pellegrini and Betis familiar pawns in Maresca’s search for winning move

Chelsea can become the first English team to win all four European trophies – and much of their manager’s strategy is rooted in chessNow for the bonus prize. After the joy of achieving their main goal for the season by securing a return to the Champions League with victory against Nottingham Forest on Sunday, a triumph that led Enzo Maresca to narrow his eyes, dial down the charm and tell critics of his young side to “eff off”, there is little pressure on Chelsea’s men before they attempt to lift the first piece of silverware of the BlueCo era by beating Real Betis in the Uefa Conference League final on Wednesday night.The stakes are low. The opponents look awkward but vulnerable. For Chelsea, the sense is that this is one to tick off before they rejoin Europe’s elite. After all, they are aware they have been a strange presence in the Conference League. This is not a place for a squad built at a cost of over £1bn. The financial reward is minimal an...
