Irvin likely would have seen the field again if it wasn’t for sophomore Liam O’Hagan doing his best Fitzpatrick imitation. Directing the same shotgun offense in which his predecessor thrived, O’Hagan scrambled, darted, and passed his way to 258 yards in the air, 63 on the ground, three touchdowns, and one interception...
...Wednesday, National Guardsmen went door to door, banging on mansions on historic St. Charles Street and shotgun shacks in Uptown, rousting the holdouts. TIME went along with a Louisiana narcotics officer as he led a team of Texas National Guardsmen and Michigan cops on a search-and-evacuate mission through postbellum homes gussied up by modern-day gentrifiers.

...stood sixth overall through 14 stages (out of 21) in this year's Tour. He grew up without a television or radio in a Mennonite household in Pennsylvania, and he needed permission from a pastor to wear racing tights in public. Landis still won't conform. After riding shotgun for Armstrong on the U.S. Postal team for the past three Tours, he jumped to the Swiss Phonack squad this season for more money and a spot as team leader. (Nonleaders can earn a few hundred thousand annually; Lance, millions.) "They want you to give 100% and make sure Lance does...
