FIFA’s top spokesman left his job Thursday, hours after Sepp Blatter was urged to do the same by the European Parliament. FIFA communications director Walter De Gregorio, closely tied to the embattled FIFA president since 2011, went three days after telling a joke about soccer’s governing body on a TV talk show. ”FIFA is going through difficult times,” Blatter wrote Thursday.
A power surge and an unexpected pitching gem lifted the streaking Toronto Blue Jays their eighth straight win. Justin Smoak hit one of four Blue Jays homers, Scott Copeland won in his first major league start and Toronto beat the Miami Marlins 7-2 Wednesday to extend its winning streak to eight. ”I don’t see how you can do it better than that,” Gibbons said.

Brandon Saad drove the net and had the puck poked away by Andrei Vasilevskiy. When he somehow found it again, Saad gave it a desperate backhand whack that just happened to send it right between Vasilevskiy’s moving pads. Saad refused much credit for his tiebreaking goal in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.
