data-mm-id=”_getbkytxj”>A lot of us on the Wonka message boards — The Factory, r/Slugworth, Gloop's Troops, and Veruca's Alt — have spent a majority of the holiday season bracing for impact in anticipation of Wonka being released wide on Friday. General consensus is that this Timotheé Chalamet vehicle is absolutely not canon and will be an even bigger dropoff than when they traded in Gene Wilder for Johnny Depp in a remake that never should have been green-lit. To be clear, this is simply a stance built on principle and not driven by any animosity or disrespect to Chalamet or his co-stars. And anyway, we're confident he'll be fine. Hugh Grant, who plays an Oompa Loompa, however, may not. Here he is promoting the film for French audiences and informing them, in …

data-mm-id=”_z4w479y47″>Sunday rain has necessitated a Monday finish at the Cognizant Classic. Shane Lowry woke up knowing he needed to do something special and get some help from leader Austin Eckroat to author a come-from-behind victory. He stepped onto the tee box at No. 15 three shots back and a remit to be uber-aggressive on the water-guarded hole. From the title of this blog post you can probably deduce that his tee shot didn't find its mark. After dumping it into the drink he took his third shot from the drop zone and left it 35 feet short, leading to an eventual double bogey. Lowry, who can run hot from time to time, took out all his frustrations on his club and the tee box.Shane Lowry’s destroying clubs and tee boxes… pic.twitter.com/LCmvIqnLVU— Andy Lang Bets (@Bum…

data-mm-id=”_v667ztccd”>Nearly three weeks after winning a second Olympic gold medal, Jayson Tatum has had time to reflect on his experience at the Paris Games.In other words, the Boston Celtics star has had time to decompress and really come to grips with his limited playing time on Team USA and the furor over his omission from head coach Steve Kerr's rotation.“It was a lot. In the age of social media, you see everything,” Tatum told The Athletic's Jared Weiss. “You see all the tweets and the people on the podcasts and people on TV giving their opinion on whether they thought it was a good decision or it was an outrageous decision or whatever."Obviously, I wanted to contribute more, and I’ve never been in (this) situation.

data-mm-id=”_q9oet1x19″>It is clear that the Miami Dolphins have a quarterback issue. Following the injury to Tua Tagovailoa in the third quarter of a 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills, backup quarterback Skylar Thompson came into a game that was already decided and threw for only 80 yards in a little more than a quarter of playing time. After the game, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Thompson would be the next man up but another option will be brought in. A day after Sunday's 24-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks with Thompson starting, another QB has yet to be signed or acquired. Thompson also got hurt in the Dolphins loss, a rib injury that kept him out of the game from midway through the third quarter.
