THE FERGIE FISTBUMP

Few things scream “magic of the FA Cup” louder than a fifth-round tie between Burnley and Bournemouth that kicks off at 5.30pm on a freezing Tuesday evening in February at an empty Turf Moor. Once the stuff of schoolboy daydreams, scoring the winner in an FA Cup final has long been eclipsed by more romantic football fantasies, but if you’re already out of the Milk Cup and it is beyond the capabilities of your team to qualify for Big Vase or sweep all before them in a transfer window, then the oldest national football competition in the world is still worth winning.

Eintracht Frankfurt’s goalkeeper Kevin Trapp has rejected an offer from Manchester United, prompting the Premier League club to turn their attention to Newcastle’s Martin Dubravka.

Trapp, who started 46 games for Eintracht last season and won his sixth Germany cap, had been targeted to compete with David de Gea. The 32-year-old former Paris Saint-Germain player explained his decision in a message to his club’s fans on Instagram.

Etihad draw leaves title in balance

In their last two league games Manchester City have played their two title rivals and achieved the same result in wildly different styles. Unless Arsenal and City meet in the semi-finals of the Champions League – a rather less enticing prospect now – the next time any two of the current top three will face each other will be in Philadelphia on 31 July, when Liverpool and Arsenal are due to play a friendly. So the title will now be decided by results against the rest of the division and the good news for fans of fair fights is that the fixtures are remarkably balanced – taking the results of their opponents and adding any points deducted back on. The a…

It’s not a full slate of college football, but the appetizer version is better than none. Something beats nothing after eight long months, and it’s time for Saturday college football.With only four games on the slate in Week 0, finding value takes a closer look, but it’s there. Here’s a look at every game on the Saturday slate.Florida State Seminoles vs. Georgia Tech Yellow JacketsGeorgia Tech went 7-6 last season and has experience back at key skill positions and along the offensive line. The Yellow Jackers are showing signs of improvement but have a long way to go to reach the ACC’s upper echelon. They’re facing what should be a motivated Florida State, a program with 73 players back from last year’s team out to prove the CFP snub was a mistake.The Seminoles were unbeate…

As french fries rained down upon the head of Wyoming head football coach Craig Bohl against the bright blue background of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl yesterday in place of the usual victory Gatorade bath, I thought to myself as I (and many others) do every year — why don’t all bowl games do something like this? Bowls have already become such corporate gimmicks that at this point that the best way to advertise the product to the public is to have the bowls embrace their own ridiculousness. Now of course, you can’t pour, say, a Playstation Fiesta Bowl-themed Gatorade replacement on someone, so our options are limited. With that in mind, here are the rankings for semi-realistic Gatorade substitutes based on bowl names, a la Idaho Potato Bowl fry shower. 5. Armed Forces Bowl/Military …
