Gerardo “Tata” Martino’s side stumbled through CONCACAF World Cup qualification, but eventually finished second in the final standings to clinch an automatic berth in November’s tournament. The rocky road to Qatar has continued into the summer window, beating Nigeria on an own goal before a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Uruguay. On June 5, a 0-0 draw with Ecuador highlighted El Tri’s struggles in the attack. It would take a failure of epic proportions to see Martino fired this close to a World Cup, but a loss to minnows Suriname would qualify as just that....

Now, Flynn’s appeals court request comes a week after U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Gael Sullivan slowed down DOJ attempts to drop the case against Flynn by pledging to schedule a period for soliciting amicus curiae (friend-of-the-court) briefs from outside parties who wish to comment on the federal government’s desire to dismiss its charges against Flynn....
