The Bears’ wide receiver corps is remade from its pretty bad 2021 state. With No. 1 receiver Allen Robinson heading west to the Rams, Chicago had work to do this offseason to give potential franchise passer Justin Fields more weapons. Well, the group was given a facelift, for sure. Whether it will be helpful this season is a total unknown. New general manager Ryan Poles has been busy bringing in wideouts to join Darnell Mooney: rookie Velus Jones Jr....

MORE: The 50 best players in MLB postseason Police released a photo Wednesday. It is indeed Pagan, who was at the game and has deleted his Twitter account — and while he can’t say much about the issue, he turned himself in Wednesday and spoke to the Toronto Sun, which is owned (naturally) by Postmedia. He implied, heavily, that he was misidentified — so this isn’t going to end anytime soon....

This, you already know. Their gut-wrenching loss at home to Miami on Tuesday night — three two-out runs by the Marlins off Brewers closer Francisco Rodriguez in the top of the ninth inning led to a 6-3 defeat — was their 16th loss in the past 19 games. (Note: All stats through Tuesday). Think about that for a moment. When manager Ron Roenicke’s team capped a five-game winning streak — which included three in a row on the road against a Dodgers team most consider the NL favorite — with a home victory against the Blue Jays on Aug....

While some members of the European Union have suggested that Russia is involved in the campaign, Mandiant’s report is the first time that Belarus has been accused.

The move is likely in retaliation for Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko’s alleged attempts to destabilize the EU by pushing large influxes of migrants to Belarus’ shared borders with nations in the bloc.

Poland declared a state of emergency, deployed troops to its border with Belarus and started erecting razor-wire fences to combat the flow....

The Belarusian opposition abroad has rallied to Ukraine’s defense. Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, hundreds of Belarusian citizens have taken up arms on the Ukrainian side. Most of them are part of the Kastuś Kalinoŭski Regiment, a unit of the Ukrainian military comprised entirely of Belarusians. At least 16 have been killed in the fighting. “After I finished my mandatory stint in the Belarusian army, I decided that I would never do military service again,” Max, a soldier in the Kalinoŭski Regiment, told Newsweek....
The 24-year-old sprinter said she hopes there will be an investigation and possible “sanctions against the head coach who approached me and who deprived me of the right to compete,” according to the Associated Press.

In recent weeks he hasn’t seemed so bulletproof, and one has to wonder why. The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal have put him on their front pages in not wholly flattering lights: the former for helping push a tax break for clergy through Congress, the latter for selling a church-revitalization strategy that some pastors say doesn’t work. In her blog, syndicated Christian-radio talk-show host and producer Ingrid Schlueter has devoted herself to critiquing megachurches in general and Warren in particular; she is irate about lots of things, including his “hula ministry....
