Chile need to regain top gear heading into Confederations Cup semifinals Just more than a year ago, Chile brought their Copa Centenario group phase to a close with a 4-2 win over Panama in Philadelphia, a result that showcased their attacking brio, but also their defensive deficiencies. Of all the teams to make it into the quarterfinals last summer, Chile had conceded the most goals. Ahead of them lie Mexico in Santa Clara -- essentially a home game for El Tri -- followed by a semifinal against the dangerous Colombians, and then Argentina, Lionel Messi and all, in the final. Yet Chile ended up champions without conceding a single goal in those three knockout matches. Now they have ended their Confederations Cup group matches with a second consecutive draw, this one an undistinguished 1-1 against Australia. Might they be capable of kicking on as they did a year ago, finding extra gears when it matters and flying home with the trophy? It is possible, of course, but there are p...

Russell Westbrook  (LM Otero/AP) On Monday night, TNT will broadcast the first annual NBA Awards, celebrating the best performances of the 2016-17 NBA season. The show starts at 9 p.m. and can also be streamed live on the official NBA website. While the league has given out the award for Most Valuable Player since the '50s, the NBA is branding this as something of a new beginning for the award. Hosted by Drake and featuring a live performance from Nicki Minaj, the show is being marketed as something akin to the ESPYs to reward the best performances of the season. After a postseason that lasted for almost two months, the regular season may feel like a distant memory, but you might remember a furious debate regarding triple-doubles and the definition of "value that still needs to be settled. The nominees for each category have been widdled down to three finalists, the most notable omission being LeBron James left off the MVP final ballot of what was always a four-way ra...

"The form of entertainment as depicted on social media was not approved as it was not in line with the Department of Correctional Services' policies and procedures, which are clear in terms of appropriate clothing behaviour when inside a correctional environment" ...
