United great Giggs broke into the team at Old Trafford as a teenager in the 1990s and Rashford’s emergence on the Premier League scene has been similarly impressive.

But off the court, Arenas is just wild, and in a fun, entertaining way. He’s a wild man with no real understanding of consequences or public discourse. MORE: NBA’s most overpaid players | Kobe’s retirement tour On Wednesday, seemingly out of the blue, Arenas posted a ridiculous Instagram message ridiculing the WNBA for not focusing on the sexuality of women.

The X-Files star will next appear in Showtime’s The First Lady as Eleanor Roosevelt. During her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night, all the talk of first ladies and presidents brought the pair onto the topic of meetings with real life figures. As it turns out, Anderson had a memorable experience with Clinton—or at least it was memorable for her. While Anderson admitted she has never met a first lady, she has met one president in her career....

Marco Silva’s remarkable Hull turnaround The Uruguay international has been forced to sit out the last two training sessions and is undergoing a course of antibiotic treatment. The 22-year-old is therefore a major doubt for Sunday’s La Liga clash with Celta Vigo at the Vicente Calderon. “Jose Maria Gimenez could not train with his team-mates in the last two sessions due to ‘an infection in the subcutaneous cellular tissue of the right leg, which does not affect joints nor other structures’,” Atletico said in a statement....

The flyers were distributed across Greensboro, North Carolina, as well as in Pasadena and Beverley Hills, California, late Saturday night and into Sunday morning.

Flying over Lebanon felt unreal this time. From my window seat, I gazed out at the mountains, the cedar forests, the coastal plain and finally Beirut. Admiring the beauty of my home country from the sky has never ceased to capture my imagination of how a great country Lebanon could be. As I exited the airplane and entered Beirut airport, reality quickly caught up with me. Very few people were entering Lebanon....

Now take a look at the de facto College Football Playoff quarterfinal at Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday. Iowa (12-0) and Michigan State (11-1) will meet in the Big Ten championship game, perhaps in large part because of the stability on the sideline. Michigan State’s Mark Dantonio and Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz prove that building a stable college football program can happen in the social media age.

Why do so many restaurant chefs even write cookbooks? To hawk them on their television shows? Or provide souvenirs for their clients? Just attempting most chefs’ recipes is like hearing a pianist at Carnegie Hall and thinking: “Oh, I have a piano at home, I can play that.” Restaurant chefs cook to dazzle, their recipes are complex, they presuppose mastery of a scary number of professional-level skills: that’s why we pay them the big bucks....

You surely know some food snobs. You may even be one. (I am.) We food snobs buy dried Italian pasta rather than Mueller macaroni, artisanal fizzy lemonade from France, not Hi-C. And then we prattle on about it, ad nauseam. Of course, our organic, imported, steel-cut, Meyer-lemon products taste better than their domestic, industrially-processed analogues. But they’re also important cultural markers. The foods we buy signal to others that we don’t just subscribe to Gourmet, we ingest its message of seeking out the finest ingredients....

So What Is Gluten-Free, Anyway? In August 2013, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) finalized regulations that would define the term “gluten-free” so that food product manufacturers could use the term when their products contained less than 20 parts per million of gluten, or ppm. The FDA chose 20 parts per million of gluten as the standard based on research showing that many celiacs, but not all, could consume foods with less than 20 ppm of gluten as part of a standard diet without having major symptoms or incurring the intestinal damage known as villous atrophy....

Kennedy, a former U.S. Marine, made a habit of walking to the 50-yard line after each game to bend a knee and offer a prayer of gratitude. As more players gathered with Kennedy for his prayer over time, some of them and families said they felt “compelled to participate” out of fear they would lose playing time. Eventually, the Bremerton School District began battling Kennedy over his practices involving his faith and his work and he lost his job....

Baseball fans tend to have a love-hate relationship with these six weeks in Florida and Arizona. That’s because there are good things and bad things about spring training. The good: Baseball is back! The bad: It seems to last as long as four offseasons. Then again, some of the bad things are actually entertaining in a way that makes them good — good enough to love, even. So I’ve compiled a list of both....
