The Washington Commanders officially placed kicker Austin Seibert on injured reserve Tuesday two days after he missed two extra points in Washington's 34-26 defeat against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 12. Seibert entered Sunday a perfect 22-for-22 on extra points, but his two misses loomed large on the outcome of Sunday's game. His first miss came after a 17-yard touchdown run by quarterback Jayden Daniels that put the Commanders up 9-3 in the third quarter, and his second one occurred after Daniels connected with top target Terry McLaurin for an 86-yard touchdown with 21 seconds left in regulation when Washington was out of timeouts. Had he made the second, the game likely would have gone into overtime tied 27-27. Had he made all of his extra points, Washington would have led, 28-27, with 21 seconds left. The kicker took full accountability for his mistakes postgame. "I just want to play better for my teammates, you know, definitely don't want to do that," Seibert said, via Yahoo Sports, postgame on Sunday. "Just wasn't striking well, but it means a lot me to be here with these guys, so I just want to put my best foot....moving forward." The second missed extra point included a low snap that his holder briefly bobbled before holding the football upright, but Seibert once again fell on the sword and said that didn't matter. "It didn't make a difference at all. It's on me," he said of the low snap on his final extra point.

However, his placement on injured reserve on Tuesday indicates Washington feels otherwise. "I felt fine," he said. "That's why I made the decision to play, and here we are." Cowboys All-Pro wide receiver CeeDee Lamb , who played with Seibert in college at the University of Oklahoma, applauded his former Sooner for his help in Dallas' upset road win. The Cowboys took home the largest upset victory of the 2024 season thus far, emerging as victors as 10.5-point road underdogs thanks to becoming the first team NFL history with two kickoff return touchdowns in the fourth quarter of a game, per CBS Sports Research. "Shoutout (Commanders kicker Austin Seibert ). He went to OU with me. He gave us one," Lamb said .
In addition to Lindelof's potential return, there is uncertainty surrounding the return dates of other injured players, including Jonny Evans. The former Manchester United defender has been sidelined with a calf injury and his timeline for recovery remains unclear. Evans' absence has been felt by Leicester City, as they have struggled defensively in his absence.Colorado hands No. 2 UConn second straight loss in Maui
A publisher as big as Ubisoft always has a lot on the go at once, much of which is known, so it's always interesting to hear about something we weren't expecting. In a new report from Insider Gaming , it seems the company is hard at work on a game called Alterra. Citing anonymous sources, the site claims the game shares much in common with Nintendo's Animal Crossing — each player has a home island inhabited by critters called Matterlings. You'll be able to visit other islands; each will be in a different biome and feature different Matterlings, resources, enemies, and so on. In a Minecraft -like twist, you'll also be able to mould your island to your liking using the materials you gather from various islands. "For example, if a player would like to create something out of snow and ice, they’d have to travel (by means unknown) to an ice world inhabited by snow-ice Matterlings," the report states. The Matterlings are described as similarly proportioned to Funko figures, and take the form of various real and mythical animals. Sources also tell that the game has been in production for about 18 months, led by creative director Patrick Redding at Ubisoft Montreal. By the sound of it, and if we presume this is all accurate, Alterra could still be several years away, depending on the scope of the game. In principle, though, it seems like a neat idea, but obviously much will depend on how it plays and how it looks. Are you interested in this project from Ubisoft?

The 27-year-old finished in the top 30. Denmark dancer-cum model, Victoria KjaEr Theilvig (21) was crowned Miss Universe 2024, becoming the first Dane to win the prestigious crown. Nigerian beauty queen, Chidimma Adetshina, was voted first runner-up while Mexico's Maria Fernanda Beltran came third. Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri and Venezuela's Ileana Marquez made it to the top five after shrugging off stiff competition. With the 2024 edition done and dusted, Zimbabwe's representative at this year's edition, Sakhile, is expected to share her experiences upon her return home today. According to her itinerary, the Miss Universe Zimbabwe will be touching down at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport at 5 pm today. The Bulawayo-bred model is expected to address the media upon arrival. Sakhile has since shared her video appreciating Zimbabweans and her family for the love they showed her. "I would like to thank my family and Zimbabwe for showing me love. "We made it this far because of the unity that we had. "I am super-excited with what the future holds for us and for me being given this opportunity to represent our country, we made it together," she said in the post. Sakhile was confident that Zimbabwe's future representatives would build on her success. "We made the top 30 and I know this is going to pave the way for more girls to come. "I have learnt a lot in boot camp, I met other 128 girls, and I have learnt that there is beauty in diversity." Sakhile, who has previously won several beauty contests including Miss Tourism Zimbabwe 2020, Miss Earth Zimbabwe 2022, Miss Supranational Africa and Supra Top Model in 2023, is also expected to share her plans. Many are tipping her to broaden her portfolio in modelling while others have encouraged her to groom youngsters. Her patriotism for Zimbabwe has also made her a favourite of many as she strutted her stuff effortlessly on the ramp. The talented model, who was accompanied by Miss Universe Zimbabwe Organisation chairperson, Miniyathabo Chiwengwa, national director Tendai Hunda and Zodwa Mkandla among other officials, left an impression in Mexico. She was also the crowd's favourite although she failed to qualify for the pageant's "Voice for Change" competition. The "Voice for Change" competition is a global initiative that encourages Miss Universe delegates to create videos about social causes they care about. Sakhile also won the hearts of many with her national dress titled "The Soaring Eagle" which was designed by Ishmael Tsakatsa of the Zarguesia brand. Social media was full of praise for Sakhile who rocked the stunning dress which told the story of Zimbabwe. Sakhile, who has done her best at the international level after months of hard work and preparations, was also hailed for promoting beauty with brains. As the local modelling industry celebrates Sakhile's fine run in Mexico, her international fans are anxious to learn about her plans after this participation.

Sakhile has nothing to prove back home as she has demonstrated her full potential in every contest she partook. A former fashion model, Sakhile has shown her versatility in pageantry. Hailing from Bulawayo, Sakhile has also managed to unite players in the industry through her professionalism as was shown at Miss Universe Zimbabwe finals early this year. She has also proved to be an inspiration to young models who wish to take pageantry as a profession by pledging to assist them. Modelling enthusiasts, scouts and friends are expected to welcome Sakhile at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport today and cheer her for hoisting high the national flag and leaving a lasting impression in Mexico.
