There is one way to bring back that old “MNF” magic — by making it Manning Night Football. Not one Manning. Not two. Three. That’s right. Getting Peyton Manning into the broadcast booth, where he is destined to be, is not enough. We need to wait for Eli to retire, and we and need more of Cooper, too. In recent years, before the 2018 season trio of Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten and Anthony “Booger” McFarland and that same combination without Witten in 2019, there have been some strong pairings — including Al Michaels and John Madden; Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden — in an attempt to recapture what the classic trio of Howard Cosell, Frank Gifford and Don Meredith did to make “Monday Night Football” a sports fixture....

Manny Machado twisted the knee in the second inning while hitting a broken-bat grounder to shortstop.

The shorthanded scoring action started early on; shortly after Boone Jenner was called for hooking 2:15 into the opening frame, the Jackets cleared the puck down into the Toronto zone, where Mitch Marner went to collect. However, Riley Nash picked off his pass and got the puck across to Nick Foligno, who sent it back to Nash for the one-time goal. Nash’s tally was his first of the season and the second shorthanded goal of his career, his first coming in 2016-17 when he was still with the Boston Bruins....

The rescue of East Timor is delicately called a “peacekeeping mission.” But make no mistake. This is really a peacemaking mission. According to the mandate of the U.N. Security Council, the international force can use “all necessary measures” to “restore peace and security” and help deliver food and other supplies to the wounded, sick and starving. U.S. President Bill Clinton, who has pledged some 200 soldiers to help with logistics, communications and perhaps intelligence, last week warned that International Force for East Timor (Interfet) will “face some stiff challenges....
