An attempted robbery of a Tennessee home Wednesday night turned deadly when the homeowner fatally shot one of the alleged robbers, who was a convicted felon.

Terry Adams, Jr., 27, died Wednesday night in Nashville during a home invasion, the Metro Nashville Police Department said in a news release.

Adams, along with another robber who remains at large, allegedly entered the home of 43-year-old Brent Bishop through a back door and hit his wife in the face.

Bishop, according to police, saw the rear door was open and went to the kitchen, before then being "struck on the head with a blunt object." The man was ordered to hand over "three long guns and a pistol" from a safe, which the robbers left with.

Looking for his wife -- who had fled to a neighbor's house -- Bishop got a pistol from another room and went outside to look for her when he once again met Adams and his partner.

Police said that Bishop fired shots at the two, "fatally wounding Adams." The second robber "dropped the long guns and the pistol that had been taken from the safe and ran away."

Adams, who's had convictions of auto burglary, attempted burglary, felony theft and aggravated assault, is a suspect in a Feb. 6 burglary at Bishop's home, in which a flat screen TV was stolen.

The now-deceased robber had been arrested in July 2017 for felony meth possession for resale and unlawful gun possession by a convicted felon and was being sought by authorities for two probation violation warrants.

Bishop was hospitalized with a skull fracture from the incident. The second robber who fled the scene remains at large.

RAYTOWN, Mo. -- "In 20 seconds, ten years of comfort can be ripped away from you," said Adam Sommer, a father of three.

After more than a decade living in a Raytown neighborhood, one metro family is scared for their safety.

Police said Sommer reported seeing a suspicious man approach his five-year-old daughter, and then quickly get into a nearby car driven by another person and speed away when the stranger saw that the father was watching.

Sommer spoke with FOX4's Melissa Stern about the "stranger danger" incident that left him extremely concerned.

The incident happened on Friday around 5:45 p.m. right outside their home near 73rd and Hedges Avenue.

Adam said that he was in the garage with his 6-year-old son while his two daughters, ages 4 and 5, were riding scooters on the sidewalk near the edge of the driveway. Adam said he heard a man's voice offering to show the 5-year-old girl something.

"My son was in the garage with me, and my two girls were out front riding their scooters on the sidewalk," Sommer said.

Sommer, his wife and three kids live in Raytown near 73rd and Hedges. Friday just before 6 p.m. something happened that made his heart skip a beat.

"I stepped outside to see what was going on, take a look, and a tall, skinny, white, male was walking away from me at a pretty good pace," Sommer recalled.

Sommer said the man was wearing a hoodie and sunglasses and crossed the street to a silver Volvo where a woman was in the driver's seat.

"I made it down to the end of the driveway, about that time he climbed into that silver Volvo, lots of dents along the driver's side, and I had never seen the car before, so when they drove by I was trying to get the license plate number, but it did not have a license plate," Sommer explained.

That's when he got nervous.

"The way he was walking, the way he was acting, the way they drove away. Red flags," Sommer said.

He followed the car to the end of the street, and tried to get as much information on it as he could.

"My middle daughter, the five-year-old, said, 'yeah, he talked to me. He had a shiny rock in his hand,'" Sommer recalled his daughter saying. "That's when I really kind of lost it."

He ran his kids inside, told his wife what happened, then hopped in his truck to drive around the neighborhood and look for them, but he couldn't find them. He then called police and filed a report.

"Once she said, 'yeah, he talked to me,' I went into dad mode. I wanted to talk to him, and tell him how disgruntled I was with him approaching my daughter," Sommer said.

While they've had the stranger danger conversation in the past, he said this has reinforced the message, so he and his wife sat their kids down and discussed it.

"We've touched on it in the past. You don't have a situation like this to use as a learning tool, you don't want a situation like this to use as a learning tool," Sommer added. "She said he was just trying to be nice, and you have to explain to a five-year-old that there's evil out there in the world."

A spokesman for Raytown police said they questioned the female believed to be the one driving the car, and she provided them with information. The spokesman said they are trying to locate him now.

The Sommer family is asking everyone to keep an eye out.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call the TIPS hotline (816) 474-TIPS.

Senior writer for ESPN The Magazine and FlemFile columnist for ESPN.com.

Has written more than 30 cover stories for SI and ESPN.

Author of "Noah's Rainbow" (a father's memoir) and "Breaker Boys" (stolen 1925 NFL title).

THERE IS ALWAYS a story to be told in the crowded, chaotic rhythms of the stadium corridors just moments after the conclusion of a Super Bowl. At 9:45 Sunday night in Minneapolis, with Tom Petty's Eagles anthem "I Won't Back Down" still echoing from the field, Tom Brady strolled back to the Patriots locker room in quiet solitude behind a thin black curtain that offered little protection from the bitterly frigid air. At that exact moment, headed in the opposite direction and passing within feet of Brady, was Eagles quarterback Nick Foles, surrounded by a sea of family and friends, adoring fans, cheerleaders, team officials, a dozen TV cameras and a full security detail that ordered everyone to MAKE ROOM for the NFL's newest, and most unlikely, quarterback king.

Late Sunday, after Foles and the Eagles had completed the greatest underdog run in NFL history, I wandered down into the concrete hallways below U.S. Bank Stadium in search of the ubiquitous dog masks that had become the unofficial symbol of the Eagles' inconceivable run from NFC mutts to Super Bowl champions. But while I found plenty of Eagles hats and Eagles wings, some fur coats, lots of bear hugs, a Union Jack cape and even a Browns jersey, I didn't see a single dog mask.

And as I continued my search over the next hour inside the Eagles' epic post-Super Bowl locker room celebration, I watched firsthand as this team -- and, perhaps, the entire city of Philadelphia -- transformed before our very eyes from the greatest underdog act in the NFL to the top dogs of the sports world.

AT 10:14 INSIDE the Eagles' expansive, plush locker room, with Foles still in demand and surrounded by a mob that, at times, runs 10 deep, a softly smiling Carson Wentz quietly shuffles past his celebrating teammates underneath a cockeyed championship hat. There's just the tiniest hobble caused by his surgically repaired knee and just the tiniest hint of bittersweet joy in his countenance. How could the Eagles' franchise quarterback not be feeling conflicted? After Foles threw a 22-yard touchdown to undrafted rookie free agent Corey Clement to make it 29-19 halfway through the third quarter, fans in Minnesota sounded like they were doing the "SKOL!" chant. But they were actually yelling for the greatest, truest Philly underdog of them all: Foles.

Eagles second-year coach Doug Pederson just produced an all-out, nothing-to-lose strategic masterpiece, starting with a fourth-down touchdown pass to his quarterback. His players weren't surprised, though.

The greatest quarterback of all time threw for a record-setting 505 yards, but somehow it wasn't enough to save the Patriots. He's feeling broken now -- but he'll be back.

In a moment, though, whatever is on Wentz's mind is drowned out when someone mercifully dumps Queen's "We Are the Champions" and, instead, cranks up a full-team, full-blast, full-bounce, 15-minute rendition of Kap G's now-fitting "Rings." This is followed by samples from Cardi B and Meek Mill, which means it's safe to say the Eagles have both the best football team and the best NC-17 postgame playlist on the planet. (In my mind, Post Malone kinda set the tone for this crazy game the night before when he ended his set at the ridiculously awesome Maxim party by imploring everyone to "make some mistakes, make some babies and have a Super Bowl!")

At 10:19 the first tsunami of champagne misses Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, who is dancing (if that's what we're calling it) in the middle of his players, and instead soaks my entire notebook while I just happen to be noting the immense difference between this locker room and the Patriots' after Super Bowl LI. Of course, there are many different ways to conduct yourself after winning the Super Bowl, and there is absolutely nothing wrong if an organization like the Patriots chooses to take a businesslike approach to victory, even if it borders on joyless.

But I gotta say, and I think most of America agrees with me on this one: Just like quarterback catches and trick plays, the Eagles do Super Bowl celebrating so much better than New England. And it's kinda nice to be reminded that this is all actually supposed to be fun.

Watching from just outside the dance circle is a beaming Jim Schwartz, a pupil of Bill Belichick's years ago in Cleveland and now the Eagles' defensive coordinator. Schwartz and I go back a bit -- when he was in Tennessee we once spent an entire interview talking about blackjack strategy as a way of understanding how defenses try to minimize the odds of playcallers -- and even though he didn't want to talk, it was obvious he understood just how rare it is for a former Belichick assistant coach to get the better of his mentor, especially in the Super Bowl. And if Schwartz's smile didn't give it away, his four-figure, crystal-ensconced, custom-made, sparkling loafers did the trick. That's how confident Schwartz is, I guess: He already has the shoes to match his new Super Bowl ring.

A moment later, when head coach Doug Pederson calls the team together for a chat, it is Schwartz who passes him the Lombardi trophy so he can hold the hardware while he talks to the team. (I have to be honest here: I missed most of Pederson's speech while listening to members of the Eagles organization speculate about how fans in Philadelphia would react to the win. "There might not be anything left by the time we get home," is how one team member put it. There were some arrests, at least one overturned car and a collapsed hotel awning on Broad Street, but, for the record, Philly is still standing.)

But I do manage to catch Pederson's most poignant moment, near the end when he hoists the trophy into the air and shouts, "An individual can make a difference ..." and the locker room finishes his sentence by yelling back to him, "... but a team can make a miracle!"

By this point, I have all but given up my search for dog masks when Mr. Underdog himself, Chris Long, enters the locker room. The top-seeded Eagles, presumed doomed after Wentz blew out his knee in December, joined the 1980 Raiders and the 2007 Giants as the only teams in NFL history to capture a title after winning every playoff game as an underdog. The whole dogface thing started when the Eagles sneaked past the favored Falcons in the divisional playoffs. Afterward, Long donned a kinda creepy German shepherd mask as a way of mockingly celebrating the Eagles' status as the greatest underdog in sports since, I guess, Rocky, or, perhaps, the science of basketball analytics.

Just like that, a Super Bowl fad was born.

And, just as quickly, dog masks seem to have mercifully gone the way of the Discount Double-Check, Cam's Dab, the Dirty Bird and, god willing, Dilly Dilly.

Because except for the wolf tattoo on his left biceps, Long and the rest of the Eagles seem to have moved on rather quickly from the whole underdog shtick. And, quite frankly, after destroying a dynasty like New England, it doesn't really fit them anymore anyway. "The way this whole year has been for us, how could this team and this city and this game go any other way?" Long laughs. "For us, it was perfect. I'm sure the whole world at home was watching and going 'Oh, here we go, here's where the Eagles panic.'"

It's a legitimate concern, I tell Long, after checking his locker thoroughly for dog masks. (Nothing.) Because by my count, three teams have basically handed Super Bowls to New England, all because they got spooked by the big, bad, zombie Patriots and tried to "over-kill" them late in the game with, oh, I don't know, stupid pass plays at the goal line.

"But there was no panic, not from this team," Long says. "I know what the whole world was thinking late in the game, but we've been proving the whole world pretty wrong for most of this season."

While this Super Bowl, with a record 1,151 yards and 74 points, featured less defense than the Pro Bowl, it did feel inside the stadium like Long or one of his defensive line mates would need to step up and become a Philly legend. That guy was defensive end Brandon Graham, whose strip sack on Brady would seal the win for Philly.

If you're worried the play might have gone to Graham's head, don't. At 10:44 p.m. inside the Eagles locker room, Graham, still dressed in a game uniform streaked with Patriots red and blue across the front, is on FaceTime at his locker, doing the E-A-G-L-E-S chant with his family back in Michigan. Having seen the Falcons run out of gas late in last year's Super Bowl, the Eagles' defensive line made a point of trying to stay fresh for the Patriots' inevitable fourth-quarter surge.

"Shoot, I'm still fresh, I could go play some more right now," Graham jokes. "We just knew we had to keep coming, keep pushing the pocket and make that play when we got the chance. So we stayed aggressive and we kept coming and we matched their intensity." On his game-winning play, Graham got leverage by feigning a stunt. When the blocker overpursued, Graham used that momentum to throw him off balance and clear a path to Brady.

"Brady only had to hold the ball on one play and it ended up costing him the game," Graham says. "And now we're legends for life in Philly!"

Now, as the red digital clock inside the Philadelphia locker room clicks toward 11, the Eagles coax players toward the team buses with a makeshift dinner buffet set up near the exit that gives the area the thick, rich smell of a steakhouse. (Underdogs eat hot dogs. Champions eat prime rib.) But while most teammates leave the locker room with carryout boxes full of steak, 310-pound defensive tackle Fletcher Cox's hands are already full.

In the hallway, tackle Beau Allen is already talking about "getting back to Philly, man, that will be a sight to see. We started this thing as underdogs and ended up making history." Next to him, a few feet away from broadcaster Tony Dungy and Brian Dawkins, the Eagles' newest Hall of Famer, Lurie speaks softly about his parents and especially his dad, who taught him football. Asked to sum up this year in one word, he chooses "ethereal." Ah, a thing of delicate beauty that seems too perfect for this world.

One might also use that word to describe the silver Tiffany keepsake cradled safely in Cox's right arm as he exits the locker room. As the cornerstone of the franchise, the Eagles couldn't find a more perfect guy to safeguard Philly's most important artifact since the Liberty Bell. And this scene, with Cox, chomping on a stogie, wearing his new Super Bowl champ T-shirt and carrying that trophy home to Pennsylvania, feels like the perfect final moment to this incredible season.

Several hours earlier, while warming up before the game, Cox began the day, like all of Philadelphia, wearing a mask labeled: underdog.

He ended it by trading in his dog mask for the Lombardi trophy and a much better moniker: world champion.

As fewer coalition airstrikes are being conducted in Iraq the Air Force is establishing small training teams teams designed to support the Iraqi Air Force as it assumes the bulk of air missions in Iraq.

With ISIS nearly defeated on the battlefield, the U.S.-led anti-ISIS coalition has shifted its focus in Iraq from enabling the Iraqi military's combat operations to maintaining those gains as ISIS becomes an insurgency. The move will lead to a realignment of some of the 5,600 U.S. forces in Iraq as they become an "enduring presence" in that country.

Interested in Iraq?

Add Iraq as an interest to stay up to date on the latest Iraq news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

"The Coalition will tailor our forces in consultation with our Iraqi partners in order to ensure the lasting defeat of Daesh," said Brig. Gen. Jonathan Braga, the coalition's director of operations, referring to the Arabic acronym for ISIS.

The coalition estimates that ISIS has lost 98 percent of the territory in Iraq and Syria it once controlled as part of its self-declared caliphate. A few thousand ISIS fighters remain in the eastern desert of Syria, where they continue fighting against U.S.-backed Kurdish and Arab forces.

The Associated Press

While defeated on the battlefield, U.S. military planners have expected ISIS to switch to insurgent tactics, carrying out high-profile terror attacks in Iraq.

"We're clear the enemy is still capable of offensive action and retains the ability to plan and inspire attacks worldwide," said Braga.

He added that although the coalition's "force composition may change over time to ensure we have the best forces on hand for the task, we will retain an appropriate amount of capabilities as well as an advisory presence to continue training, advising and equipping our partners in the continued fight against Daesh, all with the approval of the Government of Iraq."

"Our enduring presence as invited guests in Iraq will shift to focus more on policing, border control and military capacity building. We will sustain the successful momentum and enhance the capacities of the Iraqi Security Forces in pursuing Daesh, now and in the future," said Braga.

According to a coalition press release, the enduring U.S. military presence in Iraq will be conditions-based and "proportional to the need and in coordination with the government of Iraq."

The Associated Press

The statement did not disclose if the realignment of U.S. personnel might lead to a future troop reduction though an Iraqi official told The Associated Press that U.S. troop levels could be reduced by 60 percent.

U.S. military personnel records made public last fall indicated that there may have been as many as 9,000 American troops in Iraq assisting with the advise-and-assist mission with the Iraqi military.

Despite that information, the U.S. military cites the official number of U.S. troops in Iraq as approximately 5,262.

One example of how the U.S. mission in Iraq is already transitioning is the changing role of how the U.S. Air Force is helping the Iraqi military. As fewer coalition airstrikes are being conducted in Iraq the Air Force is establishing small training teams designed to support the Iraqi Air Force as it assumes the bulk of air missions in Iraq.

To pull off their Super Bowl upset Sunday night, the Philadelphia Eagles out-Patriots-ed the New England Patriots. The stories we all know by heart about the Patriots are the ones we're telling about the Eagles this morning. How they're never out of any game, even if they're missing a star player. How they come up with critical plays at the exact moment when they need one. How they leverage a coaching advantage by taking risks the other team is afraid to take.

The Eagles won a shootout Sunday night by slipping off their underdog masks and playing like they had nothing to lose.

The Eagles upset the Patriots to secure their first Super Bowl victory.

* Tom Brady was brilliant, left broken "
* Did officials get all the calls right? "
* All the records in high-scoring game "
* The biggest moments from the game "
* What should Philly do with Foles? "

The Patriots weren't out-schemed. They weren't overwhelmed by a dominant defensive line, as they were during their Super Bowl defeats against the New York Giants. They were out-executed. Bill Belichick's team made sloppy mistakes throughout the game and left the door open just wide enough for the Eagles to fly on in. For a team whose mantra is famously "Do Your Job" -- for a team that relies on a nearly mechanical emphasis and focus upon getting the little things right -- the Patriots were napping at work far too frequently to win.

Doug Pederson's team didn't win the Super Bowl as a result of the Patriots' mistakes; the Eagles won because they executed in many of the exact ways in which the Patriots specifically struggled. Philadelphia didn't play a perfect game, but it was far more consistent and made critical plays far more frequently than the Patriots.

More Patriots than Patriots

Where did the Eagles outdo the Patriots? Let's run through some of the ways the Eagles stood out -- and the Patriots fell short -- in Super Bowl LII:

Third down. We'll get to Nick Foles' game later, but the biggest question about Philadelphia's quarterback heading into the contest was whether he would be able to keep up his stunning performance on third down after posting a perfect passer rating and converting nine of his 11 third-down tries against the best third-down defense in recent league history during the NFC Championship Game.

Foles and the Eagles' offense delivered in spades. The Patriots weren't expected to be as stout as the Vikings, but the same offense that went 1-of-14 on third down on a Christmas night struggle against the Raiders went 10-of-16 (62.5 percent) on third downs against the Patriots. Philly converted a pair of third downs to start its first drive, including a third-and-12 to Torrey Smith, and went on its way from there.

The Eagles went 5-for-8 on third down in the first half, but despite the Patriots' much-ballyhooed reputation for halftime adjustments, coordinator Matt Patricia never stumbled upon anything which seemed to get the Patriots' defense off the field. The Eagles were also 5-for-8 after halftime, and that includes their third-down run at the end of the game in which they were trying to run clock in advance of a field goal try.

The Patriots weren't exactly awful on third down, going 5-of-10 with a sixth conversion via penalty, but they left several big plays on the field. On their second drive, a pressured Tom Brady scrambled and found a wide-open Danny Amendola streaking down the sideline on a wheel route against a blown coverage, but Brady wasn't able to get enough on the football. A 50-yard completion isn't a negative play, but a cleaner pocket and a stronger throw would have produced a touchdown.

Later on the same drive, the Patriots lined up on a third-and-1 and dialed up a jet sweep to Brandin Cooks. It was the perfect playcall: the Patriots had two blockers on the edge and just needed Cooks to beat Eagles safety Rodney McLeod one-on-one with momentum coming off the edge and a full third of the field to work with. A speedy, agile receiver like Cooks should probably turn this play into a touchdown, let alone a first down. Instead, Cooks bizarrely decided to run at McLeod and hurdle him, resulting in no gain on a drive in which the Patriots did not score.

- Bill Barnwell (@billbarnwell) February 5, 2018

On the next series, the Patriots dialed up a trick play nobody was expecting: a reverse with the option to throw a wheel route to Tom Brady. The Eagles, who could not possibly have fathomed a play in which a receiver might take the ball and throw a wheel route to a quarterback, let Brady slink out into the flat uncovered, but the 40-year-old failed to bring in what would have been his third career reception. It was, indeed, Brady's first professional drop, and it cost the Patriots what would have likely been a red-zone opportunity.

You might argue that the Patriots shouldn't have thrown a pass to a quarterback who was coming off of a hand injury and didn't appear to have a consistently great grip on the ball at his normal position, and I wouldn't disagree. From offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels' perspective, though, all those third-down playcalls got somebody open for a would-be touchdown or a significant gain.

Fourth down and Pederson's game management. When the Patriots did come up with stops, the Eagles simply converted on fourth down. Philadelphia converted two critical fourth-down plays, most notably a carbon copy of that reverse pass to free up Foles for a touchdown catch on what has to be the gutsiest decision in Super Bowl history since Sean Payton's unexpected onside kick against the Colts.

You can only imagine the tweets and expletives that were being readied as we saw the Eagles pass up a field goal nobody would have faulted them for taking and attempt the same cutesy play the Patriots failed on earlier, only for a play the Eagles have been saving all postseason. (You can also imagine the chill that must have run down Pederson's spine when the Patriots ran a virtually identical version of their money play earlier in the half!)

Later, the Eagles would respond to a rare third-down stuff by the Patriots on a blown-up swing pass by going for it again on fourth-and-1, this time down a point on their own 45-yard line with 5:39 to go. In a situation in which teams almost always punt -- 42 of 47 times in roughly similar situations going back through 2007, by my count -- Pederson lined up to go for it, called timeout, then resisted the urge to give the ball back to Brady and called for mesh, a Chip Kelly crossing-route staple the Eagles repeatedly went to throughout the game. Foles found Zach Ertz for a key first down.

Pederson has been doing this all season. The Eagles are among the most analytically inclined teams in the league and have been for more than a decade, going back to the days of Andy Reid and Joe Banner. They converted 17 fourth downs during the regular season, which was tops in the league and the most of any team since the 2008 Patriots. Their successful fourth-and-goal try from the 1-yard line against the Falcons in the divisional round ended up as the margin of victory in a 15-10 win.

Indeed, ESPN's win expectancy metrics loved Pederson's aggressiveness. The fourth-down call on the goal line was worth 3.4 percentage points of win expectancy, while the less conventional fourth-and-1 in the fourth quarter was far more valuable and worth 7.3 percentage points of win expectancy even before the Eagles converted. Given that Philly came into the game with a 42 percent chance of winning, those two play calls alone might have swung the game Philadelphia's way.

It will be interesting to see if Pederson's success will change the way the league thinks about fourth-down opportunities. Ron Rivera helped turn around both his career and the Panthers in 2013 by adopting his Riverboat Ron persona, but there weren't any coaches at the time who drastically upped their aggressiveness on fourth down as a result, and Rivera hasn't been particularly risky on fourth down since. Coaches who spend countless hours in the film room desperately looking for an edge are leaving pieces of wins on the table.

On the other hand, the Patriots weren't as effective on fourth down and didn't manage the game as well as you might expect a team led by Belichick. They failed on an early fourth-down try after the Brady drop, with their Hall of Fame quarterback unable to hit Rob Gronkowski on a contested fade pattern down the sidelines. Belichick chose to attempt a field goal on fourth-and-1 inside the Philadelphia 10-yard line after the Cooks stuff, a suboptimal call that went disastrously when a poor hold from Ryan Allen threw off Stephen Gostkowski's timing and resulted in a 26-yarder bouncing off the uprights. Belichick also failed to take a timeout after a 55-yard Corey Clement catch (again out of mesh/wheel) set up the Eagles with first-and-goal just before halftime, which allowed 30 seconds to bleed off the clock and prevented the Patriots from launching a meaningful drive once they got the ball back.

Special teams. New England came into the game with the league's third-best special teams and a reputation, going back to Adam Vinatieri, as a team that presses its advantages on special teams during the postseason. When the Eagles failed to convert an extra point after their first touchdown of the game, everyone (myself included) made a verbal note about making a mental note of that lost point down the line.

It didn't matter, because the Patriots weren't good on special teams themselves. They failed on a 26-yard field goal and later on an extra-point try, marking the second Super Bowl in a row in which Gostkowski has missed an extra point. Late in the game, the Pats tried to dial up a miracle on a kick return reverse, only for the gambit to fail miserably and force New England to start the final drive of its season from the 9-yard line. For a team that routinely controls games with field position, the average Patriots drive started six yards farther from the end zone than that of Philadelphia's on Sunday.

Tackling. After a pair of impressive tackles on the opening drive from Kyle Van Noy, the Patriots whiffed on far too many arm tackles and got turned around too easily by Philadelphia's skill-position players. The Patriots allowed an average of 2.45 yards after contact per pass play and 3.41 yards after contact per run play. Both of those were the highest averages the Pats allowed in any game this season.

One tackle that stands out in hindsight came on third-and-6 in the third quarter, when the Eagles ran mesh/wheel yet again and Foles hit Nelson Agholor two yards short of the sticks. What should have been an easy, drive-ending tackle from substitute defensive back Johnson Bademosi turned into an adventure and a 19-yard gain for Philadelphia's impressive slot receiver. Two third-down conversions later, Foles hit Clement streaking past Marquis Flowers with a perfect throw for a 22-yard touchdown.

The Butler didn't do it

While Flowers is a special-teamer who was on the field as a situational linebacker to presumably take advantage of his speed, he's only really in the lineup because of the early-season injury suffered by Donta' Hightower. While Hightower was playing as an edge rusher early in the season, it's likely that one of the most impactful postseason defenders in recent memory would have been playing in a more familiar role at inside linebacker against this Eagles team.

Bademosi's case for being in the lineup wasn't quite as clear. The former Browns player had some success earlier in the season as a replacement for an injured Stephon Gilmore, but Bademosi mostly stuck to special teams once Gilmore returned to the fold. He took just 29 defensive snaps over the second half of the season and then didn't play a single defensive snap during the postseason before Sunday.

Nominally, Bademosi was on the field because Belichick didn't want to play Malcolm Butler, which forced Eric Rowe into the starting lineup and Bademosi onto the field as the Patriots' third cornerback. Neither had an impressive game. Rowe was beat badly early in the game by Alshon Jeffery for a touchdown before the Patriots moved Gilmore to cover his former college roommate on a more regular basis, which led the Eagles to pick on Rowe, Bademosi, and Patrick Chung with other receivers throughout the game.

The talk during and after the game was that Belichick chose to keep Butler on the sideline for football-related reasons as opposed to disciplinary concerns. Butler struggled with the flu this week, but Belichick insisted after the game that Butler was healthy and he chose to play other cornerbacks because they would be better. Butler, in contrast, was brought to tears during the national anthem and said after the game that the team "gave up on [him]," while his teammates on the defense deferred to Belichick's decision.

Something here doesn't add up. Butler certainly had a down season, but it's difficult to believe that Belichick thought Butler was worth playing as a starter all throughout the regular season and playoffs and only suddenly realized that he was their fourth-best cornerback in time for the Super Bowl. At the very least, given how his corners were struggling to keep up, it's impossible to imagine that Belichick wouldn't have given at least one defensive snap or series to the guy who played nearly 98 percent of New England's defensive snaps this season.

If Belichick wanted to discipline Butler, though, why was he active? Butler hadn't taken a single special teams snap since 2015. The Pats didn't have another cornerback on the roster, but if Butler wasn't going to play, New England could have opened up a roster spot for Alan Branch or Kenny Britt. And if he was available, what was Belichick waiting to see before he inserted Butler back into the game? Does he really need evidence of what Butler can do in the Super Bowl coming off the bench? Will Belichick really be able to make it through this offseason without wondering whether Butler might have been able to make some difference?

The truth is that the Patriots' defense wasn't good enough to overcome injuries to contributors like Hightower and the selective benching of Butler. As I mentioned in the Super Bowl preview, the Patriots' fifth-ranked scoring defense belies a unit that ranked 31st in DVOA. In addition to Bademosi, the Patriots gave significant snaps during the postseason to 39-year-old James Harrison, who had been cut by the Steelers, and waiver-wire acquisition Eric Lee, who went from the Bills' practice squad without having played an NFL game to starting for the Patriots within two weeks.

Eagles second-year coach Doug Pederson just produced an all-out, nothing-to-lose strategic masterpiece, starting with a fourth-down touchdown pass to his quarterback. His players weren't surprised, though.

The greatest quarterback of all time threw for a record-setting 505 yards, but somehow it wasn't enough to save the Patriots. He's feeling broken now -- but he'll be back.

The Eagles just won Super Bowl LII with a backup quarterback who's signed for only one more season. So what now for Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles? Our NFL insiders weigh in.

Last year, Hightower came up with the strip sack of Matt Ryan that gave the Patriots a crucial short field during their comeback. Against Seattle, Butler came up with the most famous interception in recent league history. This year, with the Patriots about to launch their own would-be comeback drive late in the fourth quarter, it was the Eagles who came up with a critical turnover exactly when they needed a big play when they shifted Brandon Graham inside for a strip sack of Brady.

New England simply didn't have the bodies. Hightower was playing out of position and got hurt. Trey Flowers had a great postseason but was erased from existence on Sunday night by Halapoulivaati Vaitai and the Eagles' offensive line, which went with six offensive linemen for several plays with some success, including the 21-yard touchdown from LeGarrette Blount. The Eagles have a great offense, and the Patriots' defense couldn't keep up. Gilmore had a great game, but the Patriots will need to address their front seven this offseason.

Brady's bunch

With even a little bit of resistance from their defense, the Patriots probably would have won this game. That's how incredible their offense performed. Given that the Eagles came into the game ranked fourth in scoring defense and fifth in defensive DVOA, I think you can make a reasonable case that this was the best offensive performance in any loss in NFL history, let alone Super Bowl history.

The big number here is 600: The Patriots became the first team in league history to rack up 600 yards in a game and lose, finishing the game with 613 yards from scrimmage. The 600 Club had previously gone a combined 38-0-1 before Sunday, with the previous record for most yards in a defeat coming when the 49ers racked up 598 yards in a 34-31 loss to the Bills in September 1992.

Yardage isn't the best statistic, though, and a better measure might be that the Patriots never had to punt on Sunday. They scored six times, missed a field goal, had a drive end on downs, fumbled away the ball, and had a possession end at the conclusion of each half. Teams occasionally lose without punting, but it's usually because they turn the ball over a bunch. The Pats turned the ball over only once.

You won't be surprised to hear that teams that don't have to punt and don't turn the ball over usually win, too. No team has ever lost a game in which it didn't have to punt and didn't turn the ball over. Only one team in modern league history before Sunday had lost with no punts and one turnover, a list that now includes the Patriots and the 2003 Chiefs, who fell 38-31 to the Colts at home in the divisional round. Those teams were previously a combined 39-1-0 since the merger.

An even better measure is points scored, and while teams have certainly scored more than 33 points while losing, no team has scored more points and lost in a Super Bowl than New England just did. Teams that had gotten to 33 points in the Super Bowl were previously 19-0. Teams that have dropped exactly 33 points in any game over the past decade had gone 67-12 (.848). The Pats' offense did enough to win.

It was even more impressive that New England did it without Cooks, who left the game in the first half after being seemingly concussed by a legal hit from Malcolm Jenkins. Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz never really had an answer for Brady, who threw for 505 yards and three touchdowns. Schwartz pulled the tactical gambit of sticking Jenkins on James White and New England's running backs instead of Gronkowski, and while White mustered only 21 yards receiving (and Lewis failed to catch a pass), Gronkowski feasted on cornerbacks and nickel safety Corey Graham for 116 yards and two touchdowns.

McDaniels borrowed judiciously from the Giants' success against Philadelphia and went with heavy doses of the no-huddle, which kept Philadelphia from substituting as frequently on defense as it might like. The Giants abused Jalen Mills with a sluggo route for a touchdown, and the Pats went at Philadelphia's young corner with double moves, including the sluggo for a 43-yard completion to Chris Hogan. Brady became the first quarterback in league history to throw for 500 yards in a playoff game, which naturally made him the first passer to lose a 500-yard playoff game.

The 40-year-old finished the game with a Total QBR of 88.3, which was his third-best game of the season. It was the fourth-best QBR posted by a quarterback in a playoff loss in the history of the statistic, which goes back through the 2006 season. Two of the three other losses were Patriots wins: David Garrard's performance against the Patriots during the 2007 playoffs, and Russell Wilson's Super Bowl XLIX performance against New England three years ago. Both of those quarterbacks were unfortunate to go up against a superstar on the opposite sideline those days. On Sunday, so was Brady.

Chip off the Foles block

The biggest surprise of the Super Bowl for me -- and the reason the Eagles won this game -- was that we saw something much closer to the Nick Foles who dominated the Vikings than the one who was inconsistent and mediocre heading into the Minnesota game. The two-week layoff didn't faze Foles, who picked apart the Patriots on shorter throws and then delivered on enough of his shots down the field.

Early in the game, Foles wasn't quite as good as the numbers might suggest. He was getting loads of help from his receivers. That third-and-12 dig route was thrown well behind Smith, who had to go back against his momentum to bring the ball in. The 34-yard bomb to Jeffery for the game's opening touchdown hung in the air and forced the former Bears wideout to drift around in the end zone to track it down. Foles sailed a crossing route to a wide-open Jeffery, perhaps out of jitters. The 22-yard fade out of the slot to Jeffery later in the first half was a better throw but required an incredible catch from Jeffery.

Much like the Vikings game, though, Foles got better as the game went along. His interception -- Foles' first of the postseason -- was on a reasonably thrown ball that Jeffery unfortunately tipped in the air to Duron Harmon. Foles hit Clement on a wheel route for the 55-yard completion that set up the quarterback's first NFL reception -- and receiving touchdown -- just before halftime.

And after the half, Foles went drive-for-drive with Brady and lived to tell the tale. Brady posted a 95.6 Total QBR ... and got outplayed by Foles, who racked up a 97.6 Total QBR while going 15-of-21 for 158 yards with two scores. Foles' big plays after halftime were a thing of beauty. The touchdown pass to Clement on another wheel route was a perfect throw, one in which Foles identified his mismatch and delivered a pinpoint pass. Unlike the mesh/wheel combo from the previous drive, Clement wasn't Foles' first read on this play. The catch arguably should have been ruled incomplete by the letter of the law given this postseason's calls, but thankfully, common sense and the definition of clear evidence required for an overturn prevailed.

Foles kept on. He hit Agholor on a fade out of the slot for 24 yards, a staple of the Pats' playbook from Super Bowl LI. On the next drive, Foles went with a near-sidearm throw to convert a third down to Ertz, then kept his head against rare Patriots pressure to hit Ertz on mesh/wheel to keep the drive alive on fourth-and-1. Foles scrambled to hit Agholor for another first down at the sticks and then beat Cover 2 with an inch-perfect throw to Agholor to get in what would have been range for a lead-taking field goal. Turning the ball over to Brady there with a two-point lead would have been dangerous, so Foles responded by hitting Ertz on slant versus Devin McCourty (who spent most of the day against Ertz as opposed to Chung) for a touchdown.

I mentioned in my preview how most quarterbacks who played as well as Foles did during the conference championships fail to keep that level of play up in the next game. Foles dropped off too, but by far less than most other passers. Here's every quarterback who posted a passer rating of 130 or higher in a win during one of the first three rounds of the postseason since 2001 and what they did in the following game. Foles finished with the fifth-best follow-up passer rating from these 22 previous games, which includes just about every Hall of Fame quarterback from the past 20 years:

Pederson will be given credit for preparing Foles, and he certainly deserves some. Offensive coordinator Frank Reich and quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo, who were fired as offensive coordinators after the 2015 season by the Chargers and Browns, respectively, also are in that conversation. Andy Reid drafted Foles and helped convince him to stay in football when Foles thought about quitting in 2016. And Chip Kelly, with whom Foles had massive success in 2013, originally installed many of the RPOs -- notably mesh/wheel -- with which Foles ripped teams apart during the playoffs.

Kirk Cousins. Jimmy Garoppolo. Le'Veon Bell. This class could get wild. Here's everything to know heading into free agency, which begins March 12.

* Ranking top 50 potential free agents "
* Looming FA decisions for all 32 teams "
* Destination Cousins: Where QB could play "

At the same time, though, Foles isn't a creation of his coaches. The 29-year-old deserves a ton of credit and was counted out by a ton of people after his ugly end to the regular season, myself included. When I wrote that the Eagles still had a chance to win the NFC after Carson Wentz's injury, that argument was predicated upon home-field advantage, a great defense and Foles doing just enough to win games.

Maybe the Eagles won the Atlanta game that way, and maybe this all breaks differently if the duck Foles tossed up just before halftime is picked off by Keanu Neal as opposed to dropping into Torrey Smith's hands to help set up a field goal. Over the past two games, though, Foles has been a bona fide superstar. He finished with the second-best QBR over the conference championship and Super Bowl in the past 10 years, second to Matt Ryan's performance from last season. On Sunday, he won a game on a neutral field where his defense allowed one of the best quarterbacks in league history to rack up 600 yards of offense. The story used to be that the Eagles might be able to win despite Nick Foles. It was wrong. They just won a Super Bowl because they had Nick Foles.

What to do with the spare Super Bowl MVP you have lying around

Now, the Eagles find themselves in a funny predicament that just about every team in the league would love to worry about. While I joked about it during the game, there's no quarterback controversy in Philadelphia. Wentz was the favorite to win league MVP before he went down with a torn ACL. Foles pieced together an incredible postseason, but Wentz is going to be Philly's quarterback for the next decade.

The rest of the league just watched Philadelphia's backup tear apart the NFC's best defense and outduel Tom Brady in a shootout to win the Super Bowl. Foles is under contract for one more year at a cap hit of $7.6 million, with his contract set to void in April 2019. That's big money for a backup (money the Eagles will never regret spending), but it's well below market value for a starter, even as a stopgap or a bridge to a younger quarterback.

Given that the Eagles will likely lose Foles in 2019 to another team, should they at least be willing to listen to trade offers for their Super Bowl MVP?

The argument against the idea is clear. Wentz tore up his knee in mid-December, and while initial reports suggested it was a clean ACL tear, it also now seems likely that Wentz suffered damage to additional ligaments in his knee as part of the injury, which complicates his recovery period. There's no guarantee Wentz is ready for Week 1 of the 2018 season, let alone prepared to play at a similar level to the MVP-caliber form we saw from him this past season. Foles is a hedge against any setbacks to Wentz. Eagles fans can sleep comfortably all spring and summer knowing the floor for their quarterback spot is Super Bowl MVP.

At the same time, though, trading Foles doesn't preclude the Eagles from investing in another backup to replace Wentz. While Foles does deserve the credit I mentioned, the same infrastructure that helped raise both Foles and Wentz up during the 2017 season is set to return for 2018, with the Eagles likely to run this back with all three of their key offensive coaches, every one of their major receiving weapons, and all of their offensive linemen pending what Philadelphia does with left tackle Jason Peters, who is coming off of a torn ACL and MCL.

Philadelphia would save $5.2 million on its cap by trading Foles, which would be plenty of money to target a replacement. The Eagles are missing second- and third-round picks in this year's draft as a result of the trades for Wentz and Ronald Darby, although they have an extra fourth-rounder from the Pats as a result of the Rowe trade. Howie Roseman is the most aggressive general manager in the league when it comes to swapping veterans, so I wouldn't put the idea past him, even if the trade doesn't actually happen.

Like anything, I think it depends on the compensation. Some team is going to have to give up a lot to make the Eagles think about it. Roseman probably would look toward the top half of the second round, where the Jets (37), Broncos (40) and even the Dolphins (42) could theoretically look Foles' way. The Cardinals (47) have no apparent options at quarterback and the sort of cap stress that would make Foles' relatively low salary palatable. The Bills have two back-end second-rounders at 53 and 56, and you wonder if they might call about Foles if they cut Tyrod Taylor. Or maybe the Eagles look to acquire a young downfield threat at wide receiver (assuming they plan on declining Smith's option) or a tight end to replace free agent Trey Burton as part of the deal.

In the end, I doubt anything happens. The Eagles can't really justify dealing Foles given Wentz's injury unless a team blows them away with a trade offer, and given that we just saw Jimmy Garoppolo go for a second-rounder and Alex Smith join Washington for a third-rounder and Kendall Fuller, it's difficult to see a team dealing a more valuable pick for Foles. The Eagles return virtually all of their core for 2018. At this point, even though he's a backup, Foles is part of that core.

He probably deserves to have a shot at starting somewhere, but after he lived through the horror of a Jeff Fisher season, you can imagine Foles might appreciate his situation in Philadelphia. After he saved their season and helped lead the Eagles to their first Super Bowl trophy, he might be the only backup quarterback in football with his own statue in town. Covered in Crisco, of course.

Last week President Trump’s tax cuts started to get personal as people across the country logged into their bank accounts and began to find increases in their paychecks.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Last week President Trump's tax cuts started to get personal as people across the country logged into their bank accounts and began to find increases in their paychecks. The doom and gloom tax cut scenario the Democrats tried to sell the American people started to become exposed as nothing more than highly charged rhetoric. This from a party desperate to justify why not a single one of them voted in favor of letting people keep more of their money.

As people's wallets began expanding this week it just got real. More money back in the hands of people of every income level - brought to you by President Trump and the Republicans in Congress.

Last week was just the beginning. Even more people will see their paychecks rise by mid-February, as employers have until February 15 to enact the IRS withholding changes. According to Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, about 90 percent of people in the workforce will see extra money in their paychecks.

In an interview with the Washington Post, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., was asked what keeps her up at night. Her answer: the tax cuts. Specifically, she calls them a "dark cloud."

Pelosi is worth $29.35 million, but what keeps her tossing and turning on her high thread-count sheets all night is letting the American people keep more of their hard-earned money. Let that sink in.

Mrs. Pelosi is worth $29.35 million and ranked the 15th richest member of Congress out of 541 rankings, but what keeps her tossing and turning on her high thread-count sheets all night is letting the American people keep more of their hard-earned money. Let that sink in.

According to Americans for Tax Reform, to date 317 companies have announced they're giving their employees raises, bonuses or increases to their 401-K accounts. This list seems to grow almost every day.

It's worth pausing for a moment to remember how far we've come since President Obama's promises of hope and change, which proved to be nothing more than a clever campaign slogan. He left office with our country needing the hope and change he promised more than ever.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, President Obama inherited over 28 million people on food stamps when he took office. That number skyrocketed to over 47 million people during his presidency.

For four straight years - 2012-2015 - the number of people on food stamps didn't drop below 45 million; one out of every seven people in the United States. In President Trump's first year in office, before the tax cuts even took effect, that number was down to 42.2 million.

January of this year showed wages increasing faster than they have in the last eight years.

Unemployment for women is at an 18 year low, and the overall unemployment rate is the lowest its been since 2000.

This is real hope and change.

It's becoming clear that Democrats have a messaging problem, as they continue to tell people that getting back more of their money is bad, even as people across the country are starting to see more of their money in the paychecks. But damn the cognitive dissonance, full speed ahead.

Rep. Joe Kennedy, D-Mass., gave the Democrats' response to the president's State of the Union address, in which he said: "We can cut taxes for corporations today if we raise them for families tomorrow." Families seeing just the opposite happening would disagree, as would his grand-uncle John F. Kennedy, who pushed and signed an across-the-board tax cut into law.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., is also on message, having dismissed $1,000 in bonuses as not going "very far" for most people.

In Boston last week, Nancy Pelosi doubled down on her "crumb campaign," as she continued to remind people at a town hall in Cambridge that she considers the benefits they're getting from the tax cuts to be nothing more than crumbs. She's used that term so often to dismiss extra money back in the hands of hard working Americans that it's become a household word. She even went a step further saying, "It's a total rip-off on the American people."

Perhaps Republicans should be thanking Mrs. Pelosi and the Democrats for doing their job for them, and revealing how they really feel about giving people their money back. Every time those roughly 90 percent of Americans deposit their paychecks - whether it's once a week, once a month, or every other week - they'll be reminded the extra money is just crumbs and a rip-off to Fancy Nancy.

The Trump tax cuts are a reversal of the Obama years and are taking undue burdens off of families and giving them more financial freedom to pay off debt, save for a special trip, or finally start saving for retirement or college. Now, when Americans look toward the future they have every reason to be hopeful, that's a welcome change.

Lauren DeBellis Appell was deputy press secretary for then-Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa., in his successful 2000 re-election campaign, as well as assistant communications director for the Senate Republican Policy Committee (2001-2003).

University of Massachusetts Amherst police are pursuing criminal charges after a rowdy post-Super Bowl gathering of 2,000 people ended with six arrests and a number of injuries Sunday night, officials said. The university will also initiate a review of the incident based on its student conduct process.

People began arriving at the university's Southwest Residential Area shortly after the New England Patriots' 41-33 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles at 10:17 p.m., university spokesman Ed Blaguszewski said in a statement.

Fights quickly broke out, and the crowd began throwing objects and setting off smoke bombs and firecrackers, prompting police to use pepper spray to clear the area, Blaguszewski said. By 11:30 p.m., the scene was cleared.

Medical calls included head injuries, lacerations, and alcohol intoxication, and the Amherst Fire Department's ambulances took 12 people for treatment, Blaguszewski said.

One video tweeted by The Massachusetts Daily Collegian, the school's independent student newspaper, showed dozens of chanting students gathered around what appeared to be a fire as officers tried to disperse the crowd.

Officials could be heard telling those gathered, "You are all subject to arrest," in between ordering students to go indoors.

More than a dozen State Police officers in riot gear and at least three officers atop police horses could be seen in the video.

In other photos posted on Twitter, UMass police could be seen putting handcuffs on at least one male.

All six people who were arrested will be arraigned Tuesday at Eastern Hampshire District Court in Belchertown. The charges against them have not been released.

Warning: Some videos may contain graphic language.

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson and another man were struck and killed in a suspected drunken driving accident early Sunday morning.Indiana State Police say the man they believe hit them is an undocumented immigrant who has been deported twice.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Indiana State Police say the man they believe hit them is an undocumented immigrant who has been deported twice.

The accident took place around 4 a.m. Sunday. Authorities said Jackson was the passenger for a ride-sharing operator, identified as 54-year-old Jeffrey Monroe of Avon, Indiana. Monroe had pulled his 2018 Lincoln to the side of Interstate 70 in Indianapolis because Jackson had become ill, according to state police, who said both men were standing outside the car.

The car and the men were struck by a Ford F-150. One of the men was thrown into the center lane and was spotted, along with wreckage from the damaged vehicle, by a passing state trooper. As he slowed to stop for the crash, he struck the body in the center lane, officials said.

Police identified the driver of the F-150 as Manuel Orrego-Savala. Police said he gave them an alias at the scene -- Alex Cabrera Gonsales -- and attempted to flee on foot. He was taken to the Marion County Jail, accused of driving without a license and on suspicion of intoxicated driving.

Detectives said Orrego-Savala is a citizen of Guatemala who is in the United States illegally and was deported twice, in 2007 and 2009. They're working with US immigration officials, who have placed a hold on Orrego-Savala.

Jackson, 26, was from Atlanta but made a home for himself with the Colts. "Edwin was loved by all in the Colts organization," the team said. "We admired his outgoing personality, competitive spirit and hardworking mentality. He was well-respected among all with whom he crossed paths, and he will be greatly missed in our locker room and throughout our entire organization."

Jackson was an undrafted free agent out of Georgia Southern in 2015. The team's head football coach, Chad Lunsford, said in a statement that Jackson represented "how a young man should live his life. He earned everything that he was given and left this world way too soon."

CNN's Chuck Johnston contributed to this report.

Winter storm watches and warnings are in effect for the interior Northeast, where over 1 foot of snow is possible in some spots.

Some snow is already falling in parts of Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri this afternoon and showers and thunderstorms are expected from Texas to Tennessee today.

By the evening, icy spots will develop in northern Texas, northern Arkansas and southern Oklahoma.

Later tonight is when the brunt of the storm will begin, bringing snow, ice and rain from Chicago to Louisiana.

The greatest impacts are expected overnight and throughout Wednesday.

Overnight, 1 to 3 inches of snow will fall from St. Louis, to Chicago, to Indianapolis and through Ohio.

Ice could accumulate on Missouri, Kentucky and West Virginia roadways overnight, leading to a dangerous Wednesday morning commute.

A line of very heavy rain and isolated severe thunderstorms will be ongoing across the South during the morning commute. Louisiana, Alabama, Atlanta, the Carolinas and even as far north as Roanoke, Virginia, could be impacted.

By 9 a.m. Wednesday, the storm will be leaving the Midwest and bearing down on the Northeast.

The heaviest snow will fall in the interior Northeast, including central Pennsylvania, upstate New York, Vermont and New Hampshire. In Maine, over 1 foot is possible.

Three to 6 inches of snow is expected in Northwest New Jersey, the Hudson Valley, Connecticut and eastern Massachusetts.

The southern Ohio Valley, the Mid-Atlantic and parts of the Northeast could see ice accumulation.

Throughout the day the snow will change to ice and then heavy rain across Philadelphia, New York City and Boston.

The storm will wrap up by Wednesday night, leaving behind some colder temperatures across the east on Thursday morning.

The Government gives us careful instructions on how to deal with the "dow drop"
1. Don't panic
Theres nothing we can do about this
2.  play the long game
Plan out your priorities
3. Don't try to time the market
look at the big picture and the selling opportunities

The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 1,175 points, as the market bet on more interest rate hikes, the same day that a new Federal Reserve chairman was sworn in.

The Dow recovered after briefly dropping 1,500 points, the largest intraday drop in the index's history, to break below the psychologically important level of 25,000.

But the overall pullback was only 4.6 percent, not record-setting on a percentage-wise basis. The S&P 500 would have to drop 7 percent or more to trigger a halt in trading, and it would have to drop 10 percent or more to be considered a "correction."

Still the plunge had markets heading to their lowest close of the year, and it followed a dip on Friday, which itself was the sixth-largest point drop in the Dow's history.

Monday's selling spree also occurred the same day that Jerome Powell was sworn in as chairman of the Fed, which is in charge of setting the potentially higher interest rates that are driving the sell-off.

On Sunday the central bank's departing leader sounded a note of caution on stock prices.

"It is a source of some concern that asset valuations are so high," outgoing Fed chair Janet Yellen told CBS News on Sunday, highlighting price-earnings ratios in equities.

Now, as Powell takes the reins, he and the rest of the Fed Board of Governors will have to determine if that long-running trend is starting to reverse - and how to respond. The market continued its wild Friday dive into Monday with a roller-coaster ride that saw the Dow plunge 600 points by mid-afternoon.

"Everybody knew this was coming - stocks are close to record valuations and it was a matter of when it was going to happen, not if," said Dan North, chief economist at Euler Hermes North America. "I would expect that at this point, it's probably sentiment-driven and we'll get a rebound," he said.

Market observers debated whether this was reflective of a short-term breather for a meteorically rising market, or the harbinger of a more broad-based correction. The appearance of higher wage growth in Friday's jobs report was good news from a Main Street economic growth standpoint, but it spooked Wall Street as investors pondered whether this would give the Fed more incentive to raise interest rates at a quicker pace.

Under Yellen, the Fed had set a course for three interest rate hikes in 2018. Economists debated whether this would be too much, or too little - a question with higher stakes in light of the market's dramatic movements over the last two days.

"There's a lingering fear of inflation at the Fed that may cause the Fed to tighten in anticipation of further improvement we might never see," said Lindsey Piegza, chief economist and managing director at Stifel Fixed Income.

Piegza said an overly aggressive Fed risked blowing out rather than stoking the nation's economy. "You've got a lot of volatility in the equities market. The big question is, 'Why rush?'"

While Powell has a similar outlook as Yellen, Piegza said the other members - and the three vacancies that President Donald Trump's administration has yet to fill - make monetary policy movements hard to predict. "There is no consensus among Fed officials," she said. "We don't know where the Fed is going from here. ... That certainly adds some increased volatility for market participants."

"For stocks, two or three hikes - the market has been fine with that for a long time. It's once you get north of there that I think is a headwind," said Scott Wren, senior global equity strategist at the Wells Fargo Investment Institute.

Wren said he believed the chance for a fourth rate hike this year is slim, but pointed to Friday and Monday's falloff as evidence that some consider it more likely. "I think the market is concerned and that's part of the sell-off - that they would do more than three," he said.

One worry is the psychological impact a protracted market slide could have on consumer confidence. In reality, market fluctuations have little to do with Americans' day-to-day finances - the majority don't own stocks - but the halo effect of that growing wealth is very real, and a market rout could throw cold water on the consumer spending the economy needs.

"Yes, investors should be mentally prepared for more downside," said Mitchell Goldberg, president of ClientFirst Strategy, although he added that he didn't expect the major indices to fall more than another 1 to 3 percent in the near term.

Other experts said that the long bull market could leave stocks open for a more sizable setback. "Corrections of around 10 percent or so are really quite common," said Martin Baily, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. "It wouldn't be a surprise ... particularly when the market has grown as strong as it has for as long as it has."

Survivors of the USS Pueblo are suing North Korea, after the American spy ship was Seized off the Korean Peninsula and its crew held hostage  and tortured for 11 months. The crew members filed a lawsuit this month in a federal court. But North Korea will almost certainly not respond to the lawsuit. Their lawyers said in a statement, "Even though they can't get back that nearly entire year of their lives, they hope this case will finally bring closure to that horrible chapter."

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
More than 100 crew members and relatives have joined a lawsuit, filed this month in a federal court under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, which allows victims to sue state sponsors of terrorism for torture, hostage-taking, personal injury or death.

North Korea will almost certainly not respond to the lawsuit, and plaintiffs are unlikely to be able to recover funds directly from Pyongyang, but if successful they will be eligible for relief from a US government fund set up to support victims of terrorism.

US President Donald Trump named North Korea a state sponsor of terrorism in November, after it was removed from the list in 2008 by President George W Bush, re-opening the window to litigation against Pyongyang under the 1976 Act.

"Our clients are seeking to hold North Korea accountable for the unspeakable acts committed against the crew of the USS Pueblo more than 50 years ago and the impact it has had on them and their families since then," the plaintiffs' lawyers said in a statement.

"Even though they can't get back that nearly entire year of their lives, they hope this case will finally bring closure to that horrible chapter."

Seizure and abuse

The Pueblo was seized by North Korea while it was in international waters off the coast of the Korean Peninsula on January 23, 1968.

After a tense standoff in which they desperately radioed for assistance that never came, the 83 crew members were transported to the North Korean port of Wonsan and later to a detention center near Pyongyang.

There they remained for 11 months as tensions on the peninsula ratcheted up to the extent that US generals drew up a potential nuclear strike plan, eventually opening negotiations with the North Koreans at the so-called Panmunjom "peace village," on the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea.

After months of talks, the US agreed to sign a North Korean-drafted apology and the men were released across the DMZ.

Speaking to CNN last month, USS Pueblo crew member Stu Russell described their eventual release as the "greatest day" of his life, but he said many of the others were "completely out of it, almost completely devoid of emotion after suppressing our feelings and thoughts for months."

"We were beaten down so far, and trying to come up," said Russell, who is a party to the lawsuit.

According to the lawsuit, the experience of their captivity -- which included regular beatings and torture, malnourishment and general ill treatment -- left many of the men with "severe and lasting or permanent physical injuries and disfigurement and psychological harm."

It also details the "mental anguish, pain and suffering" caused to the families of the crew, as they waited anxiously for news of their loved ones for 11 months and dealt with the after effects of North Korean abuse.

The 104 plaintiffs in the new case are seeking at least $600 million in damages, or around $5.7 million each. Many of the crew are now advanced in age, and still dealing with health problems as a result of their capture and the resulting medical expenses.

Recovering damages

The new case, "John Doe A-1 et al. v. Democratic People's Republic of Korea," follows a successful lawsuit in 2008 brought by three members of the crew, William Thomas Massie, Dunnie Richard Tuck and Donald Raymond McClarren, and Rose Bucher, wife of the Pueblo's late commander, Lloyd Bucher.

In that case, the court awarded the three surviving crew members $16.75 million each, and Bucher's estate $12.5 million for the abuse suffered during capture and the "physical and mental harm that (they) likely will continue to endure throughout the rest of their lives."

North Korea did not respond to that lawsuit, and while it had been initially hoped the plaintiffs could recover damages from North Korean funds seized or frozen under international sanctions, this proved impossible.

However, last year the four were successful in arguing their eligibility for a relief under a $1.1 billion dollar fund established by the Justice for United States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Act, which can be awarded to people who have "secured final judgments in a United States district court against a state sponsor of terrorism."

The fund was originally designed to compensate the 53 Americans held hostage in Iran for 444 days between November 1979 and January 1981. They received $4.4 million each in 2015.

According to their lawyers, the four Pueblo plaintiffs were awarded $9 million collectively from the fund in October 2017.

A Florida couple have been accused of convincing a 13-year-old boy that he had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in order to raise money for themselves. A Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office has said in a Facebook post about the case, "The 13-year-old has spent the last eight months believing he is going to die from brain cancer."  The teen boy had told people at his school that he had cancer and that he was told that he wasn't going to live very long.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A Florida couple have been accused of convincing a 13-year-old boy that he had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in order to raise money for themselves.

Ginny Irovando Long, 34, and Robert Edward Long, 47, were taken into custody by the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office on Thursday and charged with one count of child abuse and nine counts of fraud, according to a statement from the sheriff's office.

"The 13-year-old has spent the last eight months believing he is going to die from brain cancer," the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post about the case.

Because of Florida state law, the 13-year-old victim will not be publicly identified by law enforcement and neither will his relationship to the couple. Irovando Long's Facebook page indicates she is the boy's mother, however.

Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office

The first report of possible wrongdoing came in November, according to the arrest report from the sheriff's office. That's when a school resource officer called the sheriff's office about what he believed to be possible exploitation after Irovando Long had arranged a fundraiser selling T-shirts in support of the victim's battle with cancer, the arrest report states.

An investigator then reached out to Irovando Long, who said that a doctor had told her that the 13-year-old had seven brain tumors, according to the arrest report.

Irovando Long told the sheriff's office investigator that she had been told that "if the victim were to receive surgery then he would turn out to be a 'vegetable' so she opted out of the victim having surgery," the arrest report states.

The teen boy repeatedly told people at school, including teachers and the school nurse, that he had cancer and that he was told he "was not going to live very long," the arrest report states.

When the boy spoke to the investigator in December, he said that he had cancer but did not like to talk about it.

"The victim then put his head down and state[d] it did make him scared sometimes," according to the arrest report.

Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office

No medical paperwork has been found suggesting that the boy ever had cancer.

The couple reportedly sold nine T-shirts as part of the fundraiser, which the arrest report totaled as $140, which was the source of their misdemeanor charge of fraud. A spokesperson for the sheriff's office said that a GoFundMe fundraiser and other alleged fundraisers elsewhere were not included in their charges.

Local ABC affiliate WEAR reported that the GoFundMe page for the boy had accumulated almost $1,000 in donations.

A spokesperson for the Department of Children and Families told WEAR that the 13-year-old boy and his sibling have been taken into the agency's custody and are in foster care pending the investigation.

GoFundMe spokesperson Bobby Whithorne shared a statement with ABC News, saying that the company "has taken action, banned the individuals, and is proactively refunding the donors."

"Campaigns with misuse make up less than one-tenth of 1 percent of all campaigns. With that said, there are instances where individuals fabricated a diagnosis and committed fraud," the statement reads.

A Utah police officer who was being attacked on Friday was saved by a passerby with a concealed pistol, officials said.

The unidentified police officer confronted the attacker, identified as Paul Douglas Anderson, after spotting feet dangling from a donation bin in Springville, FOX13 Salt Lake City reported on Saturday. Anderson got out of the bin, but refused to remove his hands from his pocket.

The officer ordered Anderson to remove his hands out of his pockets. Anderson eventually took his hands out of his pants' pockets and began repeatedly punching the officer in the face.

Derek Meyer told FOX13 he was driving by the area when he spotted the police lights and saw Anderson attacking the cop. Meyer turned around and pulled out his pistol.

"I carry a gun to protect me and those around me, but primarily I carry a gun to protect my family first and foremost," Meyer, who has a concealed-carry permit, told FOX13. "Outside of that, if I were to use my gun to protect anyone it would be law enforcement or military personnel."
DRAMATIC DASH CAM VIDEO CAPTURES DEADLY OFFICER-INVOLVED SHOOTING
Meyer aimed the pistol at Anderson and yelled at him to stop attacking the officer. Anderson bolted from the scene as responding officers arrived. The attacker, who was found hiding under a flatbed trailer, was arrested and faces several charges, according to FOX13.

The officer suffered a fractured eye socket and lacerations around his eye.

Cpl. Cory Waters of Springville Police told FOX13 Meyer's quick action helped save the officer's life.

"Had he not been in the right place at the right time, who knows what would have happened," Waters said. "But he definitely stopped the attack from continuing and becoming much worse. He might have even saved either one of their lives. It could have gone really bad, even for the suspect."

Meyer said he stepped in because it was in his nature. He added

"[I didn't do it] to get any extra attention or to have people talk about me or anything I did," he told the news station.

Meyer added that he's sharing his story because there aren't enough "good stories from responsible, gun-owning people."

The officer was released from the hospital and is expected to be ok.

Baltimore Sun 17 hrs ago Justin Fenton

BALTIMORE - A convicted Baltimore police detective testified Monday in the Gun Trace Task Force trial that he used to steal money with Detective Sean Suiter, the city homicide detective whose fatal shooting in November - one day before he was to testify before a federal grand jury in the case - remains unsolved.

The claim came on cross-examination of Detective Momodu Gondo, who has admitted to stealing from people dating back to 2008. Defense attorney Christopher Nieto asked Gondo if he had told the FBI that he stole money when he worked with Suiter and a squad of several other people.

"You'd take money, split it among yourselves?" Nieto asked. Gondo agreed.

Gondo is one of six gun task force officers to plead guilty in the case, and one of four who are testifying for the government in the federal racketeering trial of Detectives Daniel Hersl and Marcus Taylor.

Suiter was investigating a triple homicide in November when he was shot in the head with his own gun in a vacant lot, police have said. His death was ruled a homicide, but remains unsolved despite a $215,000 reward.

Suiter was shot one day before he was to testify before a federal grand jury that was continuing to investigate claims involving the Gun Trace Task Force. Police have said that they do not believe there is a connection between Suiter's killing and his scheduled testimony.

Sgt. Wayne Jenkins, the supervisor of the gun unit, was later indicted on a superseding indictment charging that he and Suiter had been involved in a 2010 incident in which drugs were planted on a man who fled and got into a serious crash. The indictment said Suiter was oblivious that the drugs had been planted, but had been the one who found them.

Umar Burley, who was sent to federal prison based on the case, said after his conviction was overturned in December that he fled because he believed he was being robbed by masked men.

Colleagues have said Suiter was an honest and beloved cop.

An assistant professor at Yale was supposedly "unaware" of his surroundings when someone took a selfie with him, other graduate students, and two severed heads. Dr. Flavio claims when they took the photo he wasn't sure of surrounding scenery. It is still unclear how the heads were obtained.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An assistant professor at Yale said he was unaware of his surroundings last summer when someone took a selfie with him, graduate students and two severed heads on a table facing up.

Dr Flavio Uribe, an assistant professor and orthodontics program director at UConn Health and a visiting associate professor at the Yale School of Medicine, was teaching students how to place screws in the cadavers' heads. At one point, he said, someone took a photo.

Several graduate students are seen looking at the camera, while others continue to work. All are wearing surgical masks in the photo taken last June.

"Somebody unfortunately took a photo," Uribe said. "It was so quick. I wasn't sure of the surroundings or scenery at that point."

Officials at Yale and UConn Health said the universities have taken steps to ensure it doesn't happen again. Yale officials said they are improving oversight at such training events and making participants agree in writing to ethical standards of conduct.

The selfie was taken in June at the Yale School of Medicine during the 2017 DePuy Synthes Future Leaders Workshop, which focused on dental-related facial deformities.

The Associated Press obtained a copy of the photo from a person who received it through a private group chat. That person, who demanded anonymity because of potential harm to their career, said the person who took the selfie would not give the AP permission to publish it for fear of being expelled.

Christopher Hyers, UConn Health's chief communications officer, said in a statement: "UConn Health was made aware of the matter at the time it happened and took appropriate internal steps."

Uribe said he has never been disciplined by UConn for any reason.

Yale spokesman Thomas Conroy said the School of Medicine took the matter very seriously. He said there was clear signage forbidding photography at each entrance to the laboratory. He also said the symposium was not part of Yale's anatomy program, and the heads in the selfie were not donated to Yale.

"The photograph taken at a symposium at Yale was disturbing and an inexcusable deviation from anything Yale would expect to occur," Conroy said in a statement.

"The faculty member who was involved in the training at which the photograph was taken has been informed of Yale's expectations in this regard."

It was not clear how the heads were obtained.

Lawrence Rizzolo, a surgery professor and director of medical studies at the Yale School of Medicine, called the selfie "an egregious violation of Yale policy" in an email, obtained by the AP, responding to a person who made a complaint about the photo.

a craigslist selleer is selling a spacex rocket

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A "gently used" SpaceX rocket could apparently be yours.

An advertisement appeared on Craigslist last week for what looks to be the rocket. A picture listed with the advertisement shows the "orbital launch vehicle" floating in water.

"Fully loaded with onboard flight computer, launch and landing hardware," the ad states. "Take off and land anywhere! 9X Merlin engines each capable of producing 200k lb.ft of thrust. Just fuel it up and it's ready to go. Says Falcon 9 on the body, slight burnt paint can be buffed out."

The advertiser does caution any potential buyers that they must bring their own tug boat because there is no shipping.

How much is the going rate for the rocket? A mere $9.9 million or "best offer."

The advertiser will also accept Bitcoin.
