The Justice Department faces an uphill legal battle in its bid to overturn a federal judge's dismissal of its Alaska Senate election lawsuit, according to legal experts who questioned whether the government can secure meaningful relief before voting ends Tuesday — even as a separate criminal investigation continues.DOJ filed a notice of appeal after Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Sharon Gleason dismissed its lawsuit Sunday over the presence of two candidates named Dan Sullivan on Alaska's Senate ballot. The judge ruled that federal officials lacked standing because they had not demonstrated how its proposed remedy could address potential voter confusion without

The Milwaukee Brewers’ celebration continues, and it likely won’t be stopping for quite a while.After all, the organization and its fan base have never celebrated a World Series title, and the entire state, let alone the city itself, is still on cloud nine after the five-game victory over the Tampa Bay Rays.Christian Yelich has been waiting for this moment since he landed in Milwaukee in 2018, and since that last out was made at Tropicana Field, he understood immediately how much it means to the loyal fan base as well as his teammates.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE"It’s been

Dallas Mavericks forward Cooper Flagg is 19 years old and already one of the best basketball players in the world.Last week, ESPN analyst Jeremy Lin called him "generational" and said he and Victor Wembanyama could become the NBA’s next great rivalry.Flagg has also drawn favorable comparisons to LeBron James at the same age, including from Brian Windhorst."In my view, Cooper is better at defense than LeBron was at the same age. I don’t even think it’s debatable," Windhorst said."There were defensive plays LeBron made at that age. He certainly would get into passing lanes, he certainly would block shots, he

This year's Mexico Open did not deliver the same incredible level of drama we witnessed at Vidanta Vallarta a year ago, thanks to Andrew Novak transforming into prime Tiger Woods, but you can't complain about a guy going on an absolute heater en route to his first individual title on the PGA Tour.Blades Brown was in the field in Mexico and finished a respectable T-19, and during the event, an unsubstantiated yet absolutely hysterical rumor about the teenage phenom made the rounds in the golf world. It involves actual swords, knighting, and meetings around a round table.In New Zealand, our

The painful but seemingly inexorable march toward head coach unemployment took another significant step in the careers of Brian Schottenheimer and Shane Steichen on Sunday.Both coaches are headed to similar dismissals which are deserved and the only reason it hasn't happened already is because the owners of the Indianapolis Colts and Dallas Cowboys are eccentric and perhaps arrogant enough to believe what is an obvious lost cause can still be redeemed.Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said after Sunday's come-from-in-front overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals that Schottenheimer remains the Cowboys' coach and firing him is not a looming move.MIKE TOMLIN'S COACH
