PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mike Tomlin isn’t getting ahead of himself. And he probably shouldn’t.For all the good vibes — particularly on offense — generated by Sunday’s 16-10 win over Cincinnati, a game in which the Steelers topped 400 yards for the first time in more than three years and moved the ball at will, the reality is there was nowhere to go but up following Matt Canada’s abrupt firing last Tuesday.“I’m not trying to paint with a broad brush and act like: ‘Eureka!’” Tomlin said after Pittsburgh improved to 7-4 and vaulted to the top of the AFC wild-card race. “We did what we needed to do to win today and we’ll keep pushing.”It’s not just coach-speak. Yes, Pittsburgh looked like a competent and occasionally dangerous offense for a full 60 minutes, a rarity for a half-decade. Yet the Steelers also faced the NFL’s 30th-ranked defense and failed to deliver the knockout punch, needing an onside kick recovery at the two-minute warning to ex...Purdue back at No. 1 in AP Top 25, Arizona up to No. 2; ‘Nova, BYU, Colorado State jump into top 20

Purdue is back atop The Associated Press Top 25 men’s college basketball poll, right where it spent so much of last season.The Boilermakers ascended to No. 1 on Monday after an impressive run through a loaded field at the Maui Invitational. They beat Gonzaga, Tennessee and Marquette — three of the top 11 teams in the nation — in consecutive days, and that was enough to earn 60 of 63 first-place votes from the national panel of Top 25 voters.It took the Boilermakers until Dec. 12 to reach No. 1 last year, where they spent seven weeks over two different stints.“Our guys were resilient, I thought they hung in there, and I thought at times we didn’t play our best basketball in the three days, but I thought we played really hard,” Purdue coach Matt Painter said after the Maui Invitational. “We competed, and that is what you got to do. You got to just sometimes hang in there and just keep competing and make one more play.”Purdue replaced preseason No. 1 Kansas, which fell to fifth a...POLL ALERT: Purdue is back at No. 1 in the AP Top 25 men’s poll; Arizona, Marquette, UConn and Kansas round out top five

BRUSSELS — EU countries want the Commission to cut at least 20 percent, or around €13 billion, from its proposed midterm budget increase, according to two EU diplomats.The EU executive had asked in June for €66 billion in additional funds from national capitals to cover unexpected spending, arguing the bloc’s coffers have been depleted by multiple crises, from the pandemic to the war in Ukraine.But member countries have broadly rejected approving that increase in full, agreeing that the Commission must trim the headline figure by at least 20 percent, according to the diplomats, who like the other diplomat quoted in this piece, were granted anonymity to discuss backchannel communications. “You can’t ask only one group of member states (the net contributors) to make a sacrifice, while another group reaps most of the benefits,” a third diplomat said. “That would undermine a sense of fairness and solidarity in the Union.”The clock is ti...Latest news
