ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Saints were holding a workout for the wide receiver, with the chance of signing him to an actual contract. Despite the fact that he has only played in one game this entire NFL season, Brown has been one of the most popular names throughout. This past March, the Pittsburgh Steelers traded him to the Oakland Raiders. But after a number of different issues, Brown was released by the Raiders and was shortly picked up by the New England Patriots....

Fair enough. The Bills have had just three winning seasons in this millennium. Even though Brown has suggested he does not need to continue his NFL career, and even though it seems clear his primary motivation in his trade request is related to money and not championship contention, it is his right to push back against any deal, even though the Steelers ultimately control his short-term destiny.

But the modified income thresholds make it so that individuals earning more than $80,000 and couples generating over $160,000 annually will no longer be eligible for any payments....

From very early on, despite the company’s wholesome, mainstream image, AOL’s killer app has been, ahem… sex chats (and, more recently, sex Instant Messaging). Sure, AOL offers news features and e-mail delivery. But what sets it apart from sites with similar services? Its huge chat-room population of people who need people. Log on anytime, midday or midnight, and you’ll find someone who wants to chat. About sex. No matter the putative topic (TV, movies, Limp Bizkit), most AOL chat rooms inevitably devolve from banal small talk into cheesy pickup lines, and from there into paired-off Instant Message tete-a-tetes and exchanges of lewd digital photos....

Spurs face APOEL in their second Champions League group game on Tuesday night in Cyprus, after beating Borussia Dortmund in their opening fixture at Wembley earlier this month.

Our advice for the Turkish forward, however, is that he should probably stick to football. While clearly blessed with decent basketball skills, Arda nevertheless struggled during a surprise cameo in the Turkish All-Star game following his goal for Barca on Saturday. He squandered a number of lay-up chances and missed three consecutive free throws, although he took it all in good sport. It was only at the end of his hilarious stint on court that Turan’s real speciality became clear, as he sank a beautiful long-range bucket to rack up three points and leave the game on a high....

Everything went so smoothly for the Cavs in their 120-90 Game 3 win Wednesday night — the magnificent ball movement, the elite play of Kyrie Irving and LeBron James, the rebounding and defense and perimeter shooting — it was easy to shrug off the fact this all happened with Love elsewhere. But in the aftermath, the lingering subplot of Love’s absence as the Cavs thrived is impossible to ignore....
