On this week’s edition of Sunday Night Football, the Kansas City Chiefs travel to MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Jets. The stadium will be filled with stars, such as Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Garrett Wilson, and of course, Taylor Swift. Kelce’s special guest was in attendence during Kansas City’s thrashing of the Bears in Week 3, and the pop star is expected to attend this primetime game too. So, how does that affect Kelce’s usage in the Chiefs’ offense? I have my idea, and I’ve used it to create my Same Game Parlay for Sunday Night Football at over 7/1 odds. Chiefs alternate spread -13.5 (+158) Travis Kelce to score a touchdown (-150) Travis Kelce under 71.5 receiving yards (-114) Same Game Parlay Odds: +751 Kansas City Chiefs -13.5 (+158) over New York Jets I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again – the New York Jets will not be successful with Zach Wilson at quarterback. This could be his last chance too, considering the ...

If you aren’t interested in a bet that will take 9 innings, one of the shortest-lasting bets you can make in an MLB game is if a run will be scored in the first inning. All it takes is 6 outs to glory, and one swing of the bat can make or break your bet. There is also a lot of value in these bets because the odds are usually very well-priced, and if you’re not a fan of sweating out your bets for 3 hours then this one will take only about 15 minutes to win or lose. But before we dive in, don’t forget to check out our MLB picks for every Game on Saturday. San Diego Padres vs Chicago White Sox: NRFI (-113) Available at FanDuel Sports book at time of publishing.

The United Auto Workers union expanded its strikes against Detroit automakers, ordering 7,000 more workers to walk off the job in Illinois and Michigan DETROIT -- The United Auto Workers union expanded strikes against Detroit automakers Friday, ordering 7,000 more workers to walk off the job in Illinois and Michigan to put more pressure on the companies to improve their offers.

Union President Shawn Fain told workers in a video appearance that the strikes were escalated because Ford and GM refused “to make meaningful progress” in contract talks. Jeep maker Stellantis was spared from the third round of strikes . Ford and GM shot back as a war of words with the union also intensified. Ford accused the UAW of holding up a deal mainly over union representation at electric vehic...

Restrictions on food exports are spilling over from rice and wheat to other essentials How do you cook a meal when a staple ingredient is unaffordable? This question is playing out in households around the world as they face shortages of essential foods like rice, cooking oil and onions. That is because countries have imposed restrictions on the food they export to protect their own supplies from the combined effect of the war in Ukraine, El Nino’s threat to food production and increasing damage from climate change. For Caroline Kyalo, a 28-year-old who works in a salon in Kenya's capital of Nairobi, it was a question of trying to figure out how to cook for her two children without onions. Restrictions on the export of the vegetable by neighboring Tanzania has led prices to triple. Kyalo initially tried to use spring onions instead, but those also got too expensive. As did the prices of other necessities, like cooking oil and corn flour. “I just decided to be cooking once a day,” s...
