Decorated general links Trump Iran strikes to historic bombing blitz that forced Vietnam peace pact
A decorated former general compared President Donald Trump's high-stakes standoff with Iran to the historic military blitz that helped bring North Vietnam back to peace talks and end America's involvement in the Vietnam War.
Speaking on "Hannity," Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg argued Trump’s latest use of "kinetic strikes" and heavy threats brought Iran back to the negotiating table this week.
"The bombing that he took, the kinetic strikes, actually brought the Iranians to the table. It's not the first time we've ever done that," Kellogg said Friday.
He compared Trump’s move to President Richard Nixon’s 1972 "Linebacker II" bombing campaign, which helped break a stalemate in peace negotiations.
TRUMP PIVOTS ON STRIKES WHILE DANGLING IRAN DEAL, TESTING WHETHER TEHRAN BLINKS
"If you go back to 1972, we saw the same thing happen with President Nixon and Kissinger when the North Vietnamese were just delaying the peace talks," Kellogg said. "Well, he unleashed what was called Linebacker II. He put B-52 bombers over Hanoi and Haiphong and basically bombed them back to the table."
The Linebacker II operation was used to force North Vietnam back into serious peace negotiations and lasted for nearly two weeks as B-52s attacked military targets around Christmas.
WHY TRUMP KEEPS FLIPPING ON IRAN: A PRESIDENT WHO SEES THE WORLD AS HE WANTS IT TO BE
Earlier this week, the U.S. carried out a series of attacks inside Iran in retaliation for Iran shooting down an American Apache helicopter. On Thursday, Trump said he canceled plans for further strikes, citing progress toward a potential peace deal.
Kellogg said the strategy unfolding with Iran mirrors the Nixon-era strikes, adding, "You're seeing the same thing here."
Trump is "very, very determined to get a result," he continued.
He also said Trump’s objective is to dismantle Tehran’s nuclear weapons program, noting Iran has been rapidly accelerating uranium enrichment to "60%, 70%, 80%" capacity.
"You're not doing that for domestic purposes," Kellogg warned of Iran's enrichment levels, adding that stopping the nuclear program "will change the dynamics of the Middle East for decades to come."
"I'm just shocked, absolutely shocked, that a lot of Americans don't see this. It's not for our generation. This is a generation of our kids and our grandkids as well. And we've got to ensure that we have peace in the Middle East," he added.
EXPERT WARNS OF 'GENERAL ESCALATION' OF FIGHTING IF HOUTHIS RESUME RED SEA CAMPAIGN
On Saturday, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced that a U.S.-Iran peace deal is likely to be finalized within the next 24 hours, a message Trump later reposted on Truth Social. Pakistan has served as a key mediator in U.S.-Iran negotiations to end the war.
"We are closer to a peace deal than ever before. With finalization likely expected in the next 24 hours, Pakistan is preparing for the electronic signing of the peace deal immediately after, followed by technical-level talks next week," Sharif wrote on X.
"We would like to thank [the] United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran for their ongoing commitment during the negotiations, and we extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in the region for their support," Sharif added.
"We are confident that this historic peace deal will form a strong foundation for lasting peace."

Inside 'Celebrity Row' at NBA Playoffs: Quid pro quo deals, loyalty tests and A-listers who got booted
The NBA playoffs aren't just a showcase for basketball's biggest stars.
They're also one of Hollywood's hottest tickets — where A-list actors, chart-topping musicians and sports icons pack the coveted front-row seats known as "Celebrity Row." Taylor Swift, Ben Stiller, Mariska Hargitay and more celebrities were spotted as the Knicks faced off against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday in New York City.
The New York Knicks made a record comeback from 29 points down and moved to the brink of their first championship since 1973 by beating the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
As the Knicks inched closer to ending a decades-long championship drought, the celebrity-packed courtside section drew almost as much attention as the action on the floor. But while "Celebrity Row" may appear effortless, landing one of the most coveted seats in sports comes with unwritten rules — and even A-listers aren't immune to the consequences when they break them.
"Training Day" star Ethan Hawke revealed he had his front-row experience yanked from him after he made comments about former Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni's abrupt exit in 2012.
"They'd always hook me up," Hawke said during an appearance on "The Bill Simmons Podcast" in 2018. "And then I called up one time, and they said, 'That'll be $7,800.' I was like, 'Why is this the first time you guys are charging me?' And they said, 'You should have thought of that before you went on the Jimmy Fallon show.'"
"And I was like, 'Wow, this is real.'"
Yet, the Knicks organization doesn't have full control over the highly coveted courtside seats.
"The biggest misconception is that [Madison Square] Garden controls all the tickets around the court. They're actually not," Joe Favorito, who led communications for the NYC team from 2001 to 2008, told ABC News. He revealed that agencies, media companies and even brands control and distribute tickets to A-listers behind the scenes.
There's also another way for a small group of stars. Some of the famous faces you see actually own their courtside seats, including Dustin Hoffman and director Spike Lee.
Then there are a handful of seats under the control of Madison Square Garden, but they don't come completely free.
"If you are a celebrity wanting to come and your representatives go through the process of doing that, there is, I don't want to say it's a payback, but there's an understanding," Favorito said. "There's a little bit of an expectation of a quid pro quo for getting those seats."
If the A-lister does come to watch, he or she is unofficially expected to make a charity event contribution or show Knicks pride on the jumbotron during the game. Loyalty can get you to the top of the celebrity list, according to Favorito.
"Loyalty is tremendous," he said.
While some celebrities earn coveted spots on "Celebrity Row" through years of loyalty to the franchise, others arrive as high-profile guests. Here's a look at the stars who packed Madison Square Garden for Game 4.
Swift brought her star power to Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night to cheer on the New York Knicks courtside.
Swift sat with close friends Alana and Este Haim.
The pop star embraced a spirited, game-day-inspired look built around a bright royal blue "STEVIE KNICKS" T-shirt featuring bold orange lettering across the front. Alana and Este each wore matching shirts reading "KNICKOLE KIDMAN" and "KNICKELBACK."
Swift, the Haim sisters and Mariska Hargitay joined hands and danced in a circle as the Knicks erased a 29-point deficit. At one point, Swift and Hargitay jumped up and down while embracing as the "Law and Order: Special Victims Unit" star whipped her hair back and forth.

Swift's appearance at Game 4 sparked widespread discussion about whether she's actually a Knicks fan. While the pop star is best known in sports circles for attending Kansas City Chiefs games to cheer on fiancé Travis Kelce, she has attended Knicks games in the past.

Hargitay is a longtime New York Knicks fan and recently developed a close friendship with basketball star Jalen Brunson.
Hargitay told The Hollywood Reporter she raced nearly 10 blocks after completing her Broadway show, "Every Brilliant Thing," to MSG to catch tip-off of game four. The "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star has emerged as one of the Knicks' most recognizable super-fans during New York's push for its first NBA championship in more than five decades.

Stiller has become one of the defining celebrity faces of the New York Knicks fan base. Stiller has attended most major Knicks home games at Madison Square Garden and often travels to cheer the team on from the road.
For many New Yorkers, Stiller isn't just a Hollywood star who likes basketball — he's one of the Knicks' most recognizable and authentic superfans, a role he's embraced nearly as passionately as any character he's played on screen.
Timothée Chalamet was raised in Manhattan, making his Knicks fandom feel less like a Hollywood attachment and more like a hometown allegiance.
Throughout the Knicks' postseason surge, he became a constant courtside presence at Madison Square Garden alongside girlfriend Kylie Jenner.
As a native New Yorker who wears his fandom on his sleeve, he's become a symbol of the excitement surrounding the franchise's resurgence and one of the celebrity supporters most closely associated with this era of Knicks basketball.
Former wrestler, actor reveals breast cancer diagnosis: 'One in 750 men'
Former professional wrestler and actor Tyler Mane announced he has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Known for his roles in "X-Men" and "Halloween," Mane shared the news publicly to help raise awareness about a condition that is frequently overlooked in men.
"I have some bad news. I start chemo today," Mane stated in a video posted to his social media channels. "One in 750 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, and I'm one of them."
CANCER SURVIVORS SAW MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS IN SLEEP AND WELL-BEING WITH ONE WEEKLY PRACTICE
Because breast cancer is predominantly associated with women, many men are unaware that they are also at risk. However, according to Mayo Clinic, everyone is born with a small amount of breast tissue.
While women go on to develop more of this tissue during puberty, the biological foundation for the disease exists in everyone.
The most common symptom of male breast cancer is a hard, painless lump located directly behind or near the nipple, according to experts. Other signs can include skin dimpling, nipple retraction or discharge.

Male breast cancer is rare, accounting for less than 1% of all cases globally. Because routine screenings like mammograms are not standard practice for men, the disease is often caught much later than it is in women.

Mane highlighted this issue as a primary motivation for speaking out. "Because it's rarely talked about, it's usually found at later stages and has worse outcomes," he said. "I want to change that."
Medical data supports Mane's concerns regarding late-stage detection. While male breast cancer can occur at any age, it is most frequently diagnosed in older men, according to Mayo Clinic.

Men's treatment plans generally mirror those for women, typically involving surgery to remove the breast tissue, followed by chemotherapy, radiation or hormone therapy depending on how far the cancer has progressed.
Mane said he is utilizing his platform to normalize conversations about male health and encourage early detection. He concluded his video by asking his followers to spread the word and help educate others.
"Follow, like and share, and come along for my journey to kick this thing in the ass," Mane said. "Send this to 10 of your friends and have them follow me, because people need to hear this."
Flesh-eating screwworm found in Texas calf as ranchers brace for possible spread
The New World Screwworm (NWS) – a parasitic fly that eats the flesh of livestock and other warm-blooded animals – has arrived in South Texas.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) confirmed on June 3 that NWS larvae had been identified in a three-week-old calf’s umbilical area in Zavala County, Texas. As of June 11, federal officials had confirmed six total cases, Fox7 Austin reported.
According to the USDA, "NWS is a serious pest that affects livestock, pets, wildlife, and less commonly, people and birds. NWS larvae (maggots) burrow into the flesh of living animals, causing serious damage to livestock and economic losses."

Screwworms don’t make meat unsafe to eat, but they do threaten to raise beef prices that are already at a record high.
The USDA is led by U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins. On May 11, 2025, she announced "the suspension of live cattle, horse and bison imports through U.S. ports of entry along the southern border due to the continued and rapid northward spread of NWS in Mexico."
Models projected the NWS would enter the U.S. in 2025, "but thanks to the hard work across the entire Trump administration and our industry, state and local partners, we were able to buy time for this moment," said Dudley Hoskins, USDA Under Secretary for Marketing and Regulatory Programs.
"USDA invested heavily in the tools needed to eliminate NWS ever since cases started increasing in Central America and Mexico," Hoskins said. "The United States has defeated this pest before, and we will do it again."
The USDA announced that "an APHIS strike team is already on-site in Texas." The agency said it has mounted a "rapid, efficient response" that involves releasing sterile male flies and establishing a movement control zone to quarantine livestock.
TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ
Beginning in the 1920s and 1930s, USDA scientists began NWS eradication efforts. Part of the solution was the Screwworm Adult Suppression System (SWASS), which lures flies to a bait mixture that contains insecticides that kill them before they can reproduce. Since female flies only reproduce once, they also released sterile male flies so the females would mate and produce no offspring.
In 1966, Agricultural Research Magazine declared, "The screwworm has been eradicated from the United States."
Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller has been critical of the USDA’s response to the new NWS outbreak.
"For months, the screwworm has advanced rapidly through Mexico in spite of the USDA’s existing gameplan," Miller said in a statement. "Even though billions of sterile flies have been dispersed by USDA, the screwworm has still advanced over 1,100 miles from southern Mexico to Texas, and USDA has missed an important component. Now that it appears the first screwworm has arrived in Texas, the consequences of that decision are now staring us in the face."
Miller said he "personally provided research and the SWASS bait formula to Rollins and her team on three separate occasions while the screwworm continued its northward trek to Texas."
He added, "Instead of using every available tool, USDA moved too slowly and relied solely on a partial solution that takes years to fully implement."

Miller asked President Trump to take control of the NWS response.
"Cut through the bureaucracy, deploy SWASS immediately and throw every available federal resource at this threat before it becomes a full-blown agricultural disaster," he urged the president.
As Texas Land Commissioner, Dawn Buckingham, M.D., oversees more than 13 million acres of state land, including roughly three-quarters of a million acres of grazing and hunting leases managed by the Texas General Land Office. Her office sent a letter to Rollins and Texas governor Greg Abbott offering full access to the lands to support the government’s response to "the active, escalating threat of the New World Screwworm."
"This is a big deal," Buckingham told Fox News Digital. "It's going to be a real problem, and it doesn't just impact our cattle, but it impacts all of the wild animals as well as our dogs and our cats. We want to be sure that we get these insects out of our state."
The Land Commission has offered access to property to house workers, grow sterile flies, set up traps, whatever is needed, Buckingham said.
According to Buckingham, the Land Commission met with South Texas ranchers "many months ago" when they observed screwworm flies marching up through Central America and Mexico. She said the pests have been slowly working their way back after they were pushed down to South America several decades ago.
"[Screwworms] come and go with the world population being so mobile," Buckingham said. "It's very easy for insects to travel, whether they jump on a fruit truck or they come on animals or whether they've infected a person. Diseases move much more quickly these days than they used to."
Buckingham added that, "The good news is we've got medication to treat [screwworms], and we know how to stop the propagation of the insect, so we should be able to get it under pretty good control. It's not reinventing the wheel. We fought them before. We'll fight them successfully again."
Four accused in alleged anti-Israel University of Michigan threat case released on bond
A group of college-aged activists were released on bond after they were charged earlier this week with engaging in a conspiracy to threaten University of Michigan leaders over their refusal to divest from Israel.
Four of the eight defendants — Zainab Hakim, 23; Paige Feyock, 26; Jonathan Zou, 22; and Colin Weger, 24 — appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Anthony Patti on Friday.
This came after FBI Director Kash Patel announced seven arrests in connection with the case.
After Hakim, Feyock, Zou and Weger entered not guilty pleas, Patti ordered them to be released on bond, according to court records reviewed by Fox News Digital.
They will have to surrender their passports, have no contact with any of the alleged victims or co-defendants and submit to GPS monitoring and travel restrictions, CBS News reported.
Throughout the hearing, prosecutors argued that the defendants should stay in jail because they are a flight risk and a danger to the community.
The judge emphasized free speech concerns, given how reliant the case is on social media posts made by the accused, according to CBS News.
Shortly after Hamas launched the Oct. 7 attacks in 2023, the suspects allegedly began coordinating with each other to intimidate university leaders, law enforcement and businesses they believed were financially supporting Israel, according to a federal indictment.
The U.S Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Michigan released a photo showing one such instance of intimidation, when in May 2024, students put fake corpses wrapped in sheets outside the home of University of Michigan Regent Sarah Hubbard.
Hubbard welcomed charges being brought, saying in a statement that she was "very appreciative of the tireless work" of law enforcement, according to The Associated Press.

Prosecutors say the defendants defaced other homes and businesses with messages such as "Free Palestine," "Divest Now," and "Intifada." These phrases were spray painted on the campus’ Jewish Federation Building on the one-year anniversary of the Oct. 7 attacks.
"The defendants also left demand notes containing additional threats, caulked doors shut, bike-locked entryways, broke windows, and threw glass jars filled with butyric acid and dye into the homes. The defendants took photographs of the destruction and posted the photos online," according to the U.S Attorney’s Office.
The indictment alleged that the co-conspirators spent months stalking so-called "targets" and discussing how they could use "poison, bombs and psychological torture" to harm them.
On May 21, 2024, Feyock and Ahmet Korkaya, another defendant in the case, allegedly agreed to kill, torment and terrorize their targets and their families, according to the indictment.
Korkaya allegedly said in text messages that the "entire family" of one target was on his "hit list," prosecutors said.
A medical student at the time, Korkaya allegedly told Feyock that he would be the "dirtiest f------ doctor ever" and slowly "poison" one of the people on his hit list.
SUSPECT IN BOULDER TERROR ATTACK TARGETING PRO-ISRAEL DEMONSTRATORS CHARGED WITH FEDERAL HATE CRIMES
Korkaya appeared in federal court in Wisconsin earlier this week, and he is scheduled to appear for a detention hearing on Tuesday.
The most serious charge in the indictment, witness intimidation, was levied against Hakim and Feyock. The pair allegedly threatened someone in their circle who they believed might have been talking to law enforcement about their activities. If convicted, they face a maximum prison sentence of 20 years and a $250,000 fine.
Also named in the indictment were Jonathan Hongru Zou, 22, and Alexander Sepulveda, 23, who were accused of throwing two glass jars filled with an unknown blue substance through the window of the home of the university’s provost, Laurie McCauley. They also allegedly spray painted the home with inverted red triangles and phrases including "Divest" and "Free Palestine."
According to a report from the Detroit Free Press, this incident occurred in March 2025.
Authorities attempted to execute a search warrant at Sepulveda’s home in April 2025. Sepulveda was warned of this by an unknown individual on an encrypted group chat, prompting him to erase all the data on his phone and laptop, according to the U.S Attorney’s Office.
Sepulveda will appear for a bond hearing on Monday at a federal court in Detroit.
Those named in the indictment charged with conspiracy to transmit a threat or destruction of property to prevent seizure face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Kate Middleton wears Princess Diana's pearl bracelet at Trooping the Colour as Charlotte mirrors her mother
Kate Middleton made a meaningful appearance at the Trooping the Colour ceremony on Saturday, stepping out with her children in coordinated looks.
The Princess of Wales, 44, drew attention in a baby blue Catherine Walker ensemble paired with a coordinating Philip Treacy hat for the annual military parade celebrating King Charles III's official birthday.
But it was her jewelry choice — and Princess Charlotte's matching accessory — that quickly sparked conversation among royal watchers.
KATE MIDDLETON CHANNELS PRINCESS DIANA IN STRIKING BLUE OUTFIT AT TROOPING THE COLOUR
Kate wore Princess Diana's iconic three-strand pearl bracelet, a statement fashion piece that paid tribute to the late royal.
Meanwhile, sitting across from her mother in the royal carriage, 11-year-old Princess Charlotte appeared to wear a remarkably similar bracelet.
The bracelet carries significant royal history.
Designed by jeweler Nigel Milne, Diana famously wore the pearl-and-diamond piece throughout 1989, including at a Birthright charity event, a performance of "The Masked Ball" at the London Coliseum and, most memorably, with her famed "Elvis" gown and the Queen Mary Lover's Knot Tiara at a state banquet in Hong Kong, according to InStyle.
Following Diana's death in 1997, Prince William inherited the bracelet and later gifted it to Kate.

During Trooping the Colour, Princess Charlotte wore a white dress accented with blue details that coordinated with Prince George's baby blue tie as the siblings rode through London alongside their mother.
Prince Louis joined his family in the carriage while Prince William participated in the military procession on horseback.
The carefully coordinated family appearance came as Kate joined King Charles, Queen Camilla and senior royals for Trooping the Colour, one of the most significant events on the royal calendar.
Camilla wore a scarlet ceremonial coat accented with gold detailing and a dark-colored hat topped with a white feather plume, while Charles appeared in full military dress uniform adorned with gold braiding, medals and a blue sash across his chest as he greeted well-wishers during the annual celebration of his official birthday.
Meanwhile, the Princess of Wales' appearance marked another high-profile public engagement as she continues to resume royal duties following her cancer diagnosis and treatment.

As Kate continues her return to the spotlight, royal experts believe that her influence within the monarchy has only strengthened in recent years.
"I think the 'Kate Era' began the moment she and Prince William exchanged vows in 2011," Christopher Andersen, author of "Kate!," recently told Fox News Digital. "No one in recent memory has had a greater impact on the monarchy than Kate."
"Kate was already bringing her own special brand of magic to the monarchy before she was sidetracked by her stunning cancer diagnosis in 2024," Andersen shared.
"From the beginning, comparisons with Princess Diana were inevitable — both were charismatic, compassionate, beautiful, smart, stylish and, most importantly, they could connect with people on a very human level."

Beyond wearing one of Diana's most treasured pieces of jewelry, Kate has previously honored the late Princess of Wales.
For Trooping the Colour last year, she stepped out in a powder-blue look that echoed a memorable outfit worn by Princess Diana during the 1988 celebration.
Diana famously appeared in a similar blue-green ensemble accented with white lapels, creating a visual parallel that royal observers quickly noted.
The annual celebration featured more than 1,500 military personnel, 200 horses and 400 musicians before concluding with the traditional Buckingham Palace balcony appearance and flypast.
'Boy Meets World' star Danielle Fishel credits ditching cardio for her ageless look
NEW YORK CITY - Danielle Fishel is spilling the secret behind looking and feeling her best.
The "Boy Meets World" star revealed she's completely over traditional cardio workouts — and credits one fitness habit with helping her look and feel better than ever.
"Weightlifting," Fishel — who famously portrayed Topanga Lawrence in the beloved 1990s series "Boy Meets World" — told Fox News Digital. "I basically exclusively weight lift now."

The 45-year-old actress has become the latest celebrity to embrace strength training as many people move away from endless cardio sessions and toward lifting heavier weights to build muscle while supporting long-term health.

"There's times I think we were all at one point considering running away from Hollywood," Friedle told Fox News Digital.
"But like anything else, I've always said that true entertainers are the people that can't do anything else. You might do something else, but you're always pulled back. That's where your heart lies."
When asked what ultimately kept him in the business, Friedle's answer was straightforward.
"The love of needing to entertain," he said.
"Boy Meets World" aired on ABC for seven seasons, from 1993 to 2000.
NBA Finals Game 5 preview: Why the Knicks are poised to close out the Spurs after stunning comeback
We could see the end of the 2026 NBA season tonight, and it might come with the New York Knicks hoisting the NBA Finals trophy. Those words mean a lot to many people, but before we get there, we get one last opportunity to make some money after going 2-1 on Game 4 with the lone loss coming by the hook.
Let's take on Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
This paragraph is dedicated to Knicks haters: They should've lost at least three games in this series. It is very possible they could, and should be the team down 3-1. The only reason they are getting this opportunity is because of stupid decisions from the Spurs, and because they had an easy path to the Finals.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
If they played tough teams in the East, they might also be tired and banged up. Instead, they were gifted a surprising, but no-superstar Hawks, hobbled and tired 76ers team, an exhausted Cavs team, and an emotional and tired Spurs team. Your fans also don't deserve to win with the crap they've done to Spurs fans and players.
I only really agree with the first two and last sentence of that paragraph.
For the Knicks lovers: Your team never quits. Being down 29 points and coming back is impressive in the regular season, but doing it in a Finals game to go up 3-1 instead of 2-2? That's marvelous. You have one of the best starting fives in the league. Jalen Brunson continues to show that he is among the best players in the league. He has no fear and a calm presence that is admirable. You all have stolen the heart from San Antonio and now get three chances to close it out.

There will be no differentiating paragraphs for the Spurs fans. Your team blew it. I can't believe I actually need to defend this, but De'Aaron Fox is not the sole reason you lost the game. You had a 29-point lead and didn't cut the head off the snake. You had a chance to take Game 2 — one they led for the majority of the game, and then they settle for the worst shot in basketball with a 7-foot-4 player. This has been a masterclass on how to piss away games.
Let's go back to the play everyone seems to be talking about — Fox steals the ball, in a race, and goes for a layup. He is blocked by OG Anunoby. Then the Knicks shoot a 30-foot three and Anunoby gets a tip-in with about a second left. You were up 15 with 12 minutes left and you lost. You were up 14 with seven minutes left, and you lost. This isn't a meaningless regular season game, this is the NBA Finals.
Fox's play was... not great, but his layup attempt wasn't a terrible decision either. Sure, he could've potentially run out the clock. He could've missed both free throws and they would've had the same amount of time. I'd take the layup and go up 3.
It is hard to take the Spurs here. Have they put up a good fight? Sure, but they are definitely in need of some maturing. That is why I picked up the Thunder to win Game 7. If you want to believe in them, go for it. I just don't. The Knicks shouldn't care about winning on the road or at home.
Based on how the New York fans have acted, they might burn down the entire city if the Knicks win, so it might be better for them to do it on the road. Give me the Knicks +5.5 here. You don't come back from losses like the Spurs took. It's over.
US soccer star Gio Reyna reveals wife is pregnant after stunning trivela goal caps USA's 4-1 World Cup win
U.S. men’s soccer team star Gio Reyna did more than just punctuate the team’s 4-1 win with a sweet goal; he announced his wife’s pregnancy.
Reyna, 23, scored a trivela goal – a goal scored with the outside of a player’s foot – in the 98th minute, and then made his announcement during his celebration. He first covered his ears in celebration and was mobbed by his teammates.
After doing that, he scooped up the ball, and put it under his shirt and sucked on his thumb, something soccer players have done to announce their spouses' pregnancy.
FOX ONE’S NEW WORLD CUP VIEWING EXPERIENCE
"My wife’s pregnant," Reyna said postgame, according to The Athletic.
"I’ve known for a couple months now," Reyna said, "so I was waiting for the perfect time (to announce the pregnancy). And this sort of felt like it."
While Reyna had known, the public found out for the first time during his celebration. He said that his parents, Claudio and Danielle, who were both former U.S. international soccer players, and his wife, Chloe, wanted him to shoot more and "be a bit selfish at times."
WATCH THE WORLD CUP FINAL ON FOX ONE
His selfishness paid off, as his trivela goal was the exclamation point on a triumphant start to the World Cup for the U.S. squad. Reyna said he didn’t make a conscious effort to score with the trivela technique and just did what felt right.
"These questions are always hard for me," Reyna said. "Honestly, when I’m playing, I’m not really thinking. I’m just doing whatever felt natural. I was in a good area, and I got a good pass, and I just saw the angle, far post."
U.S. head coach Mauricio Pochettino was so fired up that he ran off the sideline to join Reyna’s goal celebration.
The U.S. will look to build on its strong start against Australia next Friday at 3 p.m. ET.
