However, gamer displeasure typically only goes so far, and is usually regulated to comment sections and Twitter replies. But in Oculus’ case, the vehement backlash has extended well beyond the impersonal realm and into the very personal one. According to Oculus Co-Founder Palmer Luckey, the negative comments from gamers prior to the Facebook news were not wholly unexpected, if a bit harsh. Given how people tend to react in such a kneejerk way to almost any news, even the kind that ultimately turns out to be a good thing, Luckey figured that gamers would voice their displeasure as loudly as possible....

The free agent wide receiver is set to the return to the field this week as he finishes his rehab from an ACL injury suffered in Super Bowl 56, and he can be yours — if the price is right. Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reports that there are several teams in the mix for Beckham, including the Cowboys and 49ers, as well as the team he finished the 2022 season with, the Rams....

The county’s final count, which was announced on Sunday, found another 45 votes for President Donald Trump. However, between Dane County’s recount and that of another in Milwaukee County, President-elect Joe Biden still won the state with a net gain of 87 votes—further increasing his margin in Wisconsin to approximately 20,600 votes, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “What this recount shows was there was absolutely no evidence of voter fraud,” Dane County Clerk Scott McDonell told the Wisconsin State Journal....

But the Seminoles’ 45-38 victory over Florida wasn’t without controversy. Indeed, on the Gators’ final offensive play from scrimmage, the SEC officiating crew missed what appeared to be an obvious facemask penalty by Jammie Robinson on Anthony Richardson: The penalty, had it been called, would have resulted in an automatic first down, placing Florida halfway to the goal line (at the 13-yard line). As it stood, Richardson’s last-gasp heave toward the end zone fell incomplete, resulting in a turnover on downs and giving FSU the ball at its 26....

“The governor is right. The governor is spot on,” DeWine, who is also a Republican, told NBC’s Meet the Press of Burgum’s comments, which urged North Dakota residents to put political affiliations aside and regard face coverings as a necessary contribution to public health. “I’ve watched that clip a couple times, and this is not about politics. This is not about whether you’re liberal or conservative, left or right, Republican, Democrat,” DeWine continued....

University Hospitals of Cleveland said in a statement that two caregivers are on administrative leave after an error led to one patient receiving a kidney intended for another. The incident occurred on July 2. The patient is recovering as expected as the kidney was compatible, while the other’s transplant has been delayed, according to the health care system. For a kidney transplant to go ahead, the donor must be matched according to factors including their blood type....

Ohio State beat Oregon’s Marcus Mariota, Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon, and Alabama’s Amari Cooper en route to a national championship. True to form, some of the Buckeyes wanted to make it known their team faced and beat the three finalists. Linebacker Darron Lee and defensive back Tyvis Powell had a little fun on Twitter, game show-style, trolling the three. Powell is a bit of a jokester by nature, tweeting about roommate Cardale Jones when he was announcing whether he would stay in school or enter the NFL draft....

While defensive end Chase Young riffed on how the No. 4 Buckeyes came together in the aftermath of their loss to Purdue on Oct. 20, Meyer looked at his quarterback and smiled. Haskins tried not to laugh. Call this the moment where coach and quarterback could finally relax after a turbulent season that ended with the program in its standard spot. After Young and Haskins exited the podium, Meyer was asked what this team — a 12-1 team that won the program’s third Big Ten championship in seven years but will likely have to settle for the Rose Bowl instead of the College Football Playoff — means to him....

This might be a problem somewhere else, yet Ohio State coach Urban Meyer showed calm — if not confidence — in this year’s team at Big Ten Media Days on Tuesday. “The issue would be if it was a non-talented young team,” Meyer said. “That’s not the case at all. So it’s a very young team, but talented. Probably the most critical coaching month that our staff will — I’m speaking for myself — that I’ve ever been through....

The Wild sure could use some of that same urgency. Darnell Nurse gave Edmonton an early boost by scoring 2:15 into the first period, and the Oilers stopped a six-game losing streak with a 4-1 victory Thursday night that sent the Wild to their fourth straight loss. “We just were hungry,” Oilers coach Ken Hitchcock said. Ty Rattie, Leon Draisaitl and Zack Kassian also scored, Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins each had two assists, and Cam Talbot bounced back from an early exit with 35 saves for the Oilers, who were just 5-13-2 in their previous 20 games....

The Oilers’ superstar picked up right where he left off with a goal and two assists in a 4-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday night. The goal, his 31st of the year, was a beauty. McDavid picked up the loose puck in his own zone, skated all the way down the length of the ice on a 2-on-1 and tucked a slick backhand past Kings goalie Cal Petersen — who was totally fooled....

Luckey did have a few positive things to say about Sony however, stating that the overall struggle wasn’t Oculus versus Sony, instead that both companies shared the same goals of trying to convince the public that putting something on your head in order to experience virtual reality is worth adopting. Oculus had even invited Sony in to see the Rift prior to their Kickstarter campaign, so Luckey is confident that Sony won’t release a product that may damage the market for everyone....
