3 d. ago From cage to screen: The Smashing Machine and Mark Kerr’s second act with The Rock

Mark Kerr’s rise and fall was captured in a cult MMA documentary. Now Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has brought his story to Hollywood with A24’s The Smashing MachineIt started with an affirming nod of heads between two tough guys at a Santa Monica Gold’s Gym in the summer of 1997. One-time Olympic wrestling contender Mark Kerr was training for his first Ultimate Fighting Championship fight, having dominated in a three-fight, one-night tournament in Brazil two months earlier. Dwayne “Rocky Maivia” Johnson, a former NFL prospect sidelined with a knee injury suffered during his second year with the WWE, approached him.“Can I take you to lunch?” Johnson asked Kerr, who obliged him at the Firehouse restaurant in Santa Monica.

8 d. ago The usually excellent Ravens are in a hole. And it could get a lot deeper

While Kansas City got their season back on track with an excellent offensive performance, their AFC rivals are 1-3 and lost one of the finest players in the NFLThe Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens came into Sunday’s slate in very unusual circumstances – two of the best teams of the last few years were struggling. Both were 1-2, and after the Chiefs’ 37-20 blowout win on Sunday, the Ravens are in the kind of real trouble one doesn’t usually expect from such a normally stable franchise.First, the Chiefs. This offense has been a problem transcended by Patrick Mahomes for a long time, for all sorts of reasons, but there was at least a one-week reprieve from such worries. Mahomes was dynamite, completing 25 of 37 passes for 270 yards, four touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 124.8.
