Things are getting hairy in the US military. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth was stunned to find during a recent visit to a US Navy ship that American forces had been flouting a new Pentagon grooming policy, CNN reported Friday. Hegseth issued a memo this past September restricting most service members from having beards — but several sailors who greeted the secretary weren’t bare-faced, as expected. That prompted meetings at the Pentagon to discuss the implementation of Hegseth’s war on what he had called “rampant and ridiculous shaving profiles.” “Want to bring to your attention that the SecWar is paying…

Pittsburgh acquired infielder Jacob Gonzalez and reliever Brandon Eisert from the White Sox in exchange for left-handed pitching prospect Jaden Woods and the No. 34 overall pick in the 2026 draft, ESPN’s Jeff Passan first reported. While Gonzalez and Eisert strengthen Pittsburgh’s…

Former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is divorcing her cross-dressing husband Bryon, the ex-South Dakota governor’s mother claimed in a new interview. “It has been difficult, but we knew this was coming, that they were going to get divorced,” Corinne Arnold told the Daily Mail at her home next door to the ranch where the Noems lived and raised three children.

And with several big teams already going out at the dreaded penalties stage, it’s surprising so many feel they could hold their nerves.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Despite nominally playing the same position, and despite both being high-end goalscorers, England striker Harry Kane said his game is so different from Erling Haaland’s that it’s impossible to compare the two.  “I know we’re both seen as strikers, but two totally different positions, if I’m being honest,” Kane said, asked about Norway’s leading man the day before the two countries face off in a World Cup quarterfinal. “Erling’s been incredible.
