2025 Gold Cup Quarterfinals, Matchday 2: Match thread and discussion
Canada won Group B, but they needed all 270 minutes of group stage play to confirm the group win after a draw against Curaçao in their second match made things uneasy. Still, they're one of the strongest teams left in the tournament and a real threat to win if they play their A game.

Watch: Rams players find our their teammate's Madden ratings
The "Madden NFL" player ratings are here for the newest iteration of EA Sports' popular video game, and Los Angeles Rams players aren't too happy with some of the numbers. The team interviewed a few of the players about their teammates' ratings, including Davante Adams' overall rating, Jared Verse's speed rating, Kyren Williams' trucking ability and Tutu Atwell's speed. Adams got a 91 overall score, which both Jordan Whittington and Puka Nacua said is at least nine points too low. Verse and fellow edge rusher Young debated who has the higher speed rating, too, and the answer may surprise you. Williams, meanwhile, was pleasantly surprised by his trucking score. Check out the full video: In other "Madden" related news, Matthew Stafford earned a player rating of 88, while the Rams' rookies fell between an 68 and a 72.

Tyrol Pickleball Expands U.S. Distribution with Kittridge & Associates, Strengthens Market Leadership with Life Time and Dan Patrick Partnerships
NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Tyrol Pickleball, the industry's first and only footwear brand purpose-built for the fast-growing sport of pickleball, has announced a major step forward in its U.S. expansion: a new sales and distribution partnership with Kittridge & Associates, a nationally recognized sales agency with a 21-person team credited for building brands like OOFOS across the U.S. Founded by performance footwear veteran Kevin Huckle in 2018, Tyrol has built its brand on specialization: footwear only, for pickleball only. With countless hours spent playing on the hot courts at the National Pickleball Center in Naples, Huckle and his wife Sharon, simply could not find a shoe that was built specifically for, and would accommodate, the unique and rigorous kinetic movements of pickleball. It simply didn't exist. Huckle found this unacceptable and got to work to create Tyrol. The brand's four foundational pillars — comfort, stability, breathability, and injury prevention — are the result of years of research into the sport's unique biomechanics. Unlike tennis shoes, Tyrol's shoes are engineered from the ground up for lateral movement, torque resistance, moisture drainage and unprecedented durability. Tyrol's credibility in performance design recently caught the attention of Vibram, the world's premier outsole maker. Vibram selected Tyrol as its pickleball footwear partner, a testament to the durability and innovation behind the brand. "Our partnership with Vibram says it all," says Huckle. "They're the best outsole company in the world, and they chose us — the only footwear brand built exclusively for pickleball — to carry their name in this category." Key commercial milestones in 2025 include: Exclusive footwear sponsor of The Life Time Open, a newly launched elite tournament backed by PPA and MLP. The October event features an unprecedented $250,000 in total prize money, including $50,000 to both men's and women's champions, attracting the best pickleball players from around the world. Media partnership with The Dan Patrick Show via iHeartRadio, positioning Tyrol at the center of sports culture and fandom. Patrick, a devoted pickleball player himself, personally sought out the brand due to its unmatched focus and performance and launched this partnership at the recent NFL Draft in Green Bay, WI, where players, coaches and media were introduced to the Tyrol difference. "As the sport of pickleball explodes in both recreational and competitive circles, we're seeing footwear become a true performance differentiator," says Huckle. "Our partnership with Kittridge gives us extensive reach in the U.S. and ensures retailers can tap into this fast-growing, equipment-hungry customer base." With a centrally located warehouse in Indianapolis, and operations in both the U.S. and Canada, Tyrol is poised to become the dominant name in pickleball footwear. Retailers, event sponsors, and media partners looking to ride the sport's explosive wave now have a dedicated, proven brand to turn to.

Davante Adams is a top-10 WR in Madden 26, but Puka Nacua is not
On paper, the Los Angeles Rams appear to have one of the best wide receiver tandems in the NFL. Davante Adams joins Puka Nacua in Los Angeles as a top weapon for Matthew Stafford, looking to continue his reign as a premier wideout in football. The ratings gurus at EA Sports still view Adams as a star receiver because he has one of the highest overall ratings for a wideout in the game. Adams is a 90 overall in 'Madden NFL 26', which is the 10th-highest at his position, just behind Drake London (91). EA only revealed the top 10 players at each position on Thursday and Puka Nacua's name was noticeably absent from the list of receivers. While we don't yet know his initial rating, he isn't one of the 10 best wideouts. ESPN polled NFL executives, coaches and scouts from around the league this offseason and asked them to rank the top receivers for 2025. Nacua and Adams both fell outside the top 10, only earning recognition as honorable mentions. It seems both players are on the fringe of being top-10 receivers in the eyes of personnel evaluators around the NFL, as well as EA Sports' ratings experts. Nacua probably doesn't get as much praise as he deserves because he was injured last season, but he was third in the NFL in receiving yards per game (90.0) and nearly eclipsed 1,000 yards despite only playing 11 games. Adams is an established star at wide receiver but you could make the case that Nacua is in for a better season in 2025 if healthy. Whatever his initial Madden rating is, it should be on the rise throughout the year. This article originally appeared on Rams Wire: Madden 26 ratings: Davante Adams is a top-10 WR, Puka Nacua is not
