    Treasure hoard found near Jesus' Galilee site tied to forgotten Jewish uprising, archaeologists say
    Archaeologists in Israel recently found an ancient treasure hoard dating back more than 1,600 years not far from where Jesus carried out much of His ministry.The coins were found at Hukok, a kibbutz in northern Israel, according to the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA). Hukok is roughly three miles west of Capernaum, an ancient fishing town where Jesus preached and performed miracles.Hukok and Capernaum are part of the Galilee region, which stretches from Israel's Jezreel Valley to the border of Lebanon.HOBBYISTS SEARCHING FOR ROCKETS ACCIDENTALLY UNEARTH 'INCREDIBLE' ANCIENT TREASURES BURIED DEEP UNDERGROUNDThe coins, however, were not contemporary to Jesus. The IAA said that they date back to the 4th century A.D., over 1,600 years ago.They were left by Jews during the Gallus Revolt, the last Jewish uprising under Roman rule, between 351 and 352 AD.The hoard consists of 22 bronze coins found "in a small crevice prepared deep in an underground hiding complex," the IAA noted.IAA researcher Uri Berger said the hoard's location suggests it was "carefully planned its hiding place, [with its owners] hoping to return to it when the threatening troubles were over."ELITE ROMAN FAMILY'S ANCIENT TREASURE UNEARTHED IN RUINS OF FIRE-SCORCHED DWELLINGThe coins were found in a pit at the end of a narrow, winding tunnel.Interestingly, the hiding complex also dates back to earlier revolts, such as the Great Revolt in the first century A.D. and the Bar-Kochba Revolt, between 132 and 136 A.D."This shows that hundreds of years after these tunnels were dug out, they were reused," the IAA noted.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER"The hoard provides, in all probability, unique evidence that this hiding complex was used in one way or another during another crisis during the Gallus Revolt a rebellion for which we have only scant historical evidence of its existence."Researchers were "great[ly] surprised" by the discovery, which was found by volunteers excavating the complex for tourism development.For more Lifestyle articles, visit foxnews.com/lifestyle"Fortunately, it was the many volunteers excavating the hiding complex who actually uncovered this important treasure, and they enjoyed this great moment of the joy and excitement of discovery," the IAA's Einat Ambar-Armon said."The excavation thus became not only an important scientific event, but also a significant communal educational experience one that brings the public closer to its heritage, and strengthens the sense of belonging and the connection to the past."In a statement, IAA director Eli Escusido said he hopes the Hukok site will "be a magnet for tourists from Israel and the world."He added, "We are working together so that the entire public can enjoy the hidden treasures of this site."

    Princess Diana found unexpected political ally during marriage crisis: book
    Princess Diana had an unexpected political ally during the public breakdown of her marriage.Royal author Valentine Low has written a new book, "Power and the Palace," which details the relationship between the British royal family and the government over the years.In the book, Low describes how former Prime Minister Sir John Major quietly served as a mediator between the "warring Waleses" while also being a "sympathetic listener to Diana at a time when she felt at her most alone."KING CHARLES CRIED THE NIGHT BEFORE MARRYING PRINCESS DIANA, KNOWING HE LOVED CAMILLA: EXPERTFox News Digital reached out to Major, 82, for comment."People dont realize this about John Major, but he is a very warm, empathetic man," Low told Fox News Digital. "He did his best to talk to both Charles and Diana at that time. He wasnt going to try and bring them back together again, but he was trying to make sure that the whole crisis passed off without too much unnecessary drama, unnecessary unpleasantness, and that afterward, Diana would find some kind of role.""I think it was very important in John Majors eyes that Diana found a role after separating from Charles," Low added.WATCH: PRINCESS DIANA FOUND AN UNEXPECTED ALLY DURING MARRIAGE CRISIS: BOOKAccording to the book, Alex Allan, Majors private secretary, said the prime minister had "a number of sessions with both Charles and Diana." When one royal had a meeting with him, the other would quickly ask if they could have a sit-down too.Allan noted that while Major was not trying to stop the separation, he was "quite concerned" about Diana, in particular. Lord Butler, who was cabinet secretary at the time, felt that Major offered Diana "a shoulder to cry on.""Diana tragically relied on numerous mystics, astrologers and spiritualists as she was so desperately lonely," royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams told Fox News Digital. "Major was soft-spoken and had a personable manner. His approach as broker endeared him to both Charles and Diana, winning the trust of the warring parties, in itself a monumental feat.""Diana talked to people when she felt relaxed in their company," British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard told Fox News Digital. "I imagine Major offered Diana a safe space. However, he would have also been concerned about Dianas future position. He wanted to ensure a smooth separation process."Dianas private secretary, Patrick Jephson, told Low in his book that Major kept in regular contact with Diana, who yearned for a friend during a dark period in her life."Major would come and visit Diana quite frequently in the run-up to the separation and afterward," said Jephson.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"They would have tea, just the two of them. It was great, because always afterward, she was encouraged, she was buoyed up. She would refer to him fondly as the Hon. John. I got the very clear message that he enjoyed those meetings. He was there to be an honest broker, to be a source of practical help if she needed it, and to help her find happiness. Or at least contentment in what she was doing."Low told Fox News Digital that Major has always been fiercely protective of his private conversations with Diana. Major never wanted to exploit Dianas trust, Low pointed out."Id like to say something about what John Majors private conversations with Diana revealed, because Im sure they revealed all sorts of absolutely fascinating things," said Low. "But John Major is one of the most discreet people known to man and has given away no details whatsoever about his conversations with any member of the royal family and never will."Royal expert Ian Pelham Turner told Fox News Digital he believed that Majors concerns for Diana were the real deal."I worked behind the scenes with the John Major government," he explained."I played a very small part in him becoming prime minister and then was asked to take his official inaugural photographs The reality is, John Major understood loneliness. When he saw the emotions in Diana, he reached out to help her. He saw it as his constitutional duty, but also, Major came from a middle-class background, unlike his contemporaries, who came from wealthy backgrounds."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"Diana was The Peoples Princess," Turner pointed out. "Major was very much a man for the people. So intuitively, he offered support. It was in his power to help, but also in his heart too."Still, Fitzwilliams believed Major "undoubtedly misled Parliament" when he announced in 1992 that Charles and Diana had decided to separate but had "no plans to divorce.""That was hardly practical," said Fitzwilliams.For four more years, Charles and Diana continued to tear each other apart in public, Esquire reported. Each gave televised tell-alls about their crumbling union. In 1995, Diana famously sat down with the BBCs "Panorama" and declared, "There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded." She was referring to her estranged husband's mistress and longtime love, Camilla Parker Bowles.The outlet noted that this was the last straw for Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, who were still hoping the pair could work out their differences. The queen finally allowed them to get an official divorce.The divorce was finalized in 1996."Diana essentially reinvented herself," said Chard. "She recognized her superpower as The Peoples Princess and threw herself into charity work and connecting with people."This led her to being known and loved as the Queen of Peoples Hearts. She felt free and independent away from the institution and realized how the media helped her tell her story and sway public opinion. She used the press strategically."A former royal aide also told Low that Major did his best to make Prince William and Prince Harry feel they were cared for as their parents breakup played out on the world stage."He was an important, sympathetic, helpful mentoring figure," said the aide."He is a very genuine person, very natural," Sir Malcolm Rifkind said, as quoted in Lows book. "He is a very warm but also very astute person. He is the sort of person that, if you did have something very personal that you wanted to discuss in private, you would feel comfortable doing that."Dianas claim of independence was brief. In 1997, the Princess of Wales died from injuries sustained in a Paris car crash. She was 36.Major was in office from 1990 to 1997. Town & Country reported that following Dianas death, Major was appointed special guardian to her sons, a role suggested by Charles. This made Major responsible for the legal and administrative matters relating to the princes.PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLES WEDDING DAY SPARKED PROFANE REACTION FROM PRINCE PHILIP: BOOKIn 2005, the queen appointed Major a Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter. Then in 2012, he became chairman of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust.His relationship with the royal family remained close. Over the years, he appeared at events supporting the Trust, often alongside the queen or other members of the royal family, the outlet shared.Major attended both Prince Williams wedding to Kate Middleton in 2011, and Prince Harry's marriage to Meghan Markle in 2018. He also attended the queens funeral in 2022 and the more private service afterward.

    Pastors hail Erika Kirks forgiveness of husband's accused killer as powerful testimony to Christian faith
    Jesus Christs 2,000-year-old call to believers to love their enemies was vividly demonstrated Sunday when Erika Kirk publicly forgave her husbands alleged killer before an audience of millions.Charlie Kirk, 31, was gunned down Sept. 10 while speaking at a Utah campus. Prosecutors filed murder charges against suspect Tyler Robinson, who admitted to shooting Kirk in a text message to his roommate and transgender partner, saying that he "had enough of [Kirk's] hatred."After losing her husband and as some fringe figures celebrated his killing Erika Kirk delivered a tearful message of forgiveness at his memorial service."My husband, Charlie. He wanted to save young men, just like the one who took his life. On the cross, Our Savior said, 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.' That young man I forgive him," Kirk said. "I forgive him because it was what Christ did, and it's what Charlie would do."PASTOR RECALLS LAST MOMENTS WITH CHARLIE KIRK: AMERICAN MARTYR"The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the Gospel is love always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us," she continued.Faith leaders across the country praised her words as one of the most powerful public acts of Christian witness in years.Bishop Robert Barron, founder of Word on Fire Ministries and bishop of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, attended the memorial. He called it "one of the most impressive and moving displays of the Gospel I have ever experienced.""Jesus speaks of loving and forgiving our enemies, but this is one of the very hardest of his teachings to realize in practice. That Erika Kirk was able to pronounce a word of forgiveness to her husbands assassin, even as her heart must have been breaking, was breathtaking," he told Fox News Digital.LEADERS AND INFLUENCERS FLOOD SOCIAL MEDIA WITH TRIBUTES TO CHARLIE KIRK AS THOUSANDS PACK ARIZONA MEMORIALHer remarks, broadcast to millions, were "extraordinarily significant," Barron added. "She became in that moment a brilliant evangelist, not so much through the intellectual articulation of the faith but the enactment of it."The comments drove international headlines and praise from across the political spectrum.Rev. Franklin Graham, president and CEO of Samaritans Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said countless people around the world witnessed the power of God through Kirk's testimony."The world just witnessed something incredible. Erika Kirk while grieving the death of her husband and the father of their two young children forgave his killer. Erika did it so well, straight from her heart," Graham told Fox News Digital. "To forgive like this is very difficult to do. It is possible only through the grace of God."Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills said her message showed that Gods grace is stronger than evil."When she said, I forgive that young man, she could only do that from the strength of God because Erika knows what its like to be forgiven," Hibbs told Fox News Digital. "And by doing that, she set herself free from that mans act of horrific violence At the same time, she sends a message to this young man that her act of goodness and grace is greater and much more powerful than his act of evil."ERIKA KIRK'S FORGIVENESS OF HUSBAND'S ALLEGED KILLER SPARKS WIDESPREAD ADMIRATIONThe Christian leaders noted that Kirk's message and the peaceful mourning of believers stood in stark contrast to people online celebrating Kirks death."There was no bitterness. There were no protests, no hatred, no violence," Graham said. "There have been very few times when I have seen the name of Jesus Christ lifted up for the world to see quite like this, and I am grateful to Erika for showing millions of people around the world what it looks like to live and forgive like Christ."Barron called the celebrations over Kirk's death evidence of "a deep rot in our culture" that Christians are meant to confront."Christians are called upon by Christ to be light in the darkness," he said. "They have to go into the dysfunctional parts of our culture and bring the spirit of Jesus.And so we reach out, especially to those in greatest moral peril, with love, forgiveness, and an invitation to repent."Hibbs pointed to Jesus' warning to believers that the world would hate them, but said Christians have hope in the midst of hostility."And we are actually seeing that [play out today]," he said. "But the Christian rejoices. We know that heaven is for real and that this life is short. And so we want to make sure that others know that they too can be forgiven like we have been forgiven and that Christ died for that very reason. That's what the whole story of the Bible is about. And so we find great comfort even in the hostility. There's a message of comfort to us because we understand."The Christian leaders were hopeful that Kirk's act of forgiveness would embolden Christians to fearlessly live out their faith and could spark revival worldwide."I believe there are many people harboring hatred and unforgiveness in their hearts today. It is my prayer that God will use Erikas message and example to move people to forgive. This could result in countless changed lives across our nation and around the world," Graham said.Christian singer Chris Tomlin, who led worship at the service, also said Kirk's words could plant the seeds for a spiritual awakening."That kind of forgiveness can only come from somebody who really walks with God," Tomlin told The Christian Post. "And for people to see that and witness that what a moment around the world. I think so many people came to faith yesterday, thousands and thousands of people. And I pray its an awakening in this nation."

    Buccaneers bring back 464-pound defensive lineman Desmond Watson
    The Tampa Bay Buccaneers re-signed defensive tackle Desmond Watson and added him to the practice squad as the team prepares to take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4.Watson, the 464-pound rookie defensive lineman out of Florida, failed to make the 53-man roster in the preseason. He was forced to the sideline as he failed to meet the conditioning requirements to take the field. He was considered to be the heaviest player in NFL history.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMBuccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said on Monday that Watson had a "good workout when the team brought him in last week.The Buccaneers will look to try to find a way to stop the Eagles tush push, which has come under the spotlight in the last few weeks as it appeared some players had been jumping before the ball was snapped to Jalen Hurts.Bowles said Watson wasnt just being brought in as the answer to the tush push."Well never bring him in just to stop a tush push. If weve got to bring in a guy to stop one play and the tush push never comes up, youre wasting your time," Bowles said. "If we bring him in, we think he can play, not just for a Philadelphia thing.SUPER BOWL CHAMPION NICK FOLES SAYS HE IS 'PRO TUSH PUSH' AS CRITICISM OF THE PLAY MOUNTS"Its very unlikely hed be ready to play, once we bring him in, for Philadelphia right now anyway. Its just a matter of us making room and seeing if we have a place for him, and then what we see for him in the future."The 6-foot-6 defensive tackle was working with a nutritionist during the summer. The team didnt say what an ideal weight for him would be.Watson spoke about his weight gain to reporters earlier this year. He said he would consistently stop off to get food while at Florida."Stopping while driving," Watson said when asked about bad habits he's tried to shed at his pro day. "My biggest thing is keep going, get to where I need to get. There are stores and a lot of temptations. That's helped me immensely."Don't go inside the gas station. Pay at the pump. Because inside it's snacks and all types of things like that. Don't pull over. If you're on the highway, stay on the highway until you get where you've got to go."The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    North Carolina lawmakers pass 'Iryna's Law' to eliminate cashless bail after Charlotte train stabbing
    North Carolina lawmakerspassed a bill named "Irynas Law" in their effort to eliminate cashless bail in the wake of the fatal stabbing of a Ukrainian refugee in Charlotte last month.Iryna Zarutska was allegedly killed by suspect Decarlos Dejuan Brown Jr. on a light rail train on Aug. 22 in what investigators describedas a random act of violence. He hasbeen charged with first-degree murder."Irynas Law" calls to "eliminate the condition to release a defendant on a written promise to appear," to "provide for a new procedure to have defendants with suspected mental health issues to be evaluated for involuntary commitment," and to "modify the laws related to pretrial release to provide stricter guidelines for defendants charged with violent offenses and defendants with extensive criminal histories," among other measures.The bill was passed by an 82-30 vote in the North Carolina House and heads to the desk of North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein, a Democrat, WBTV reported.CHARLOTTE LIGHT-RAIL STABBING MURDER SPURS LANDMARK CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM FROM NORTH CAROLINA REPUBLICANS"Iryna should still be alive. She should be thriving and enjoying time with her family and friends," said North Carolina Senate President Phil Berger, a Republican representing Reidsville. "We cannot let North Carolina be held hostage by woke, weak-on-crime policies and court officials who prioritize criminals over justice for victims. We are also taking steps to revive the death penalty for those who commit the most heinous crimes."State House Speaker Destin Hall, a Republican representing Lenoir, added in a statement that residents deserve to live without fear of criminals being "cycled in and out" of thecriminal justice system.CONGRESS TO HOLD CRIME HEARING IN CHARLOTTE FOLLOWING DEADLY LIGHT RAIL ATTACK"We will simply not tolerate policies that allow violent offenders back onto our streets to commit more crimes and jeopardize public safety," Hall said.While curbing some of the judges discretion, the package in turn allows jurists to impose GPS monitoring and conditional bond for a "new category" of violent offenses.Electronic monitoring and house arrest are heavily weighted as options for certain recidivist offenders.Fox News Digitals Stepheny Price contributed to this report.

    Street artist draws outrage, praise with 'Charlie Kirk spots' after TPUSA founder's assassination
    A New York City street artist who chalks circles on sidewalks has sparked both outrage and fascination with a new series of Charlie Kirk-themed "spots" following the conservative activists assassination earlier this month.Felix Morelo, a Colombian-American artist born in the U.S., is best known for colorful chalk circles labeled with phrases such as "Good Luck Spot" or "Hugging Spot," along with more controversial iterations like the "Suicide Spot" and the "Israel and Palestine Spot."Passersby are invited to interact with the pieces by stepping into the circles or avoiding them altogether.Since Kirk's death, Morelo has been drawing circles marked "Charlie Kirk spot," prompting mixed responses. Some passersby have defaced the chalk art writing "Nazi" next to his creations, he said, or drawn competing circles of their own, underscoring the countrys broader political polarization.After the assassination, Morelo said he was disturbed by those who mocked or celebrated the conservative activist's killing."I couldn't find a reason for somebody to be executed, you know? It's like, even hardcore criminals get their due [process]," Morelo told Fox News Digital in Washington Square Park in Manhattan.YOUNG PEOPLE RESTORE CHARLIE KIRK MEMORIAL MURAL WITH BIBLE VERSES AFTER VANDALS DEFACE TRIBUTEWhile Morelo doesnt agree with everything Kirk said, he liked the conservative influencer and even considered reaching out to participate in a debate."This is where I was going to try to debate Kirk, but somebody took him away," Morelo said. "I think it reflects the politics of where we are right now, you know?"Morelo prefers to let his artwork speak for itself, but he shared some of his inspiration with Fox News Digital."I felt like by writing his name over and over, we will keep his message alive. But I also did it out of anger toward those people that were celebrating," he said."But after some time, I realized that I decided not to judge or feel bad about the people being happy for his death because I realized that I felt the same feelings."Morelo described coming to terms with these feelings of hate, an experience which went on to shape the intent behind creating the spots. He wanted to open a dialogue and try to understand the people he viewed as his enemies.Morelo recounted hateful reactions to his art, including people smudging out and scribbling over his spots.I'M A DEMOCRAT, AND CHARLIE KIRK'S MURDER MUST UNITE ALL AMERICANS AGAINST VIOLENCEHe has received vitriolic social media DMs and been approached threateningly on the street, he said. But this social experiment, as he thinks of it, has also taught him something about people."I've noticed that they spill their hate or whatever they want to say and then they take off," Morelo said. "And for me, I'm like, OK, you said that but tell me more. Exactly why do you hate this person, and why are you afraid? So it's been pretty fascinating."Still, Morelo himself is afraid at times, but he gives his haters the benefit of the doubt, believing that explosive reactions can come from "any human going through like their good days and bad days, when youre just pissed off or you didn't sleep.""But I've also been approached by people that bless me. I think one of them said that for every one hater that you get, you're gonna get three people that love you. People hug me, and I feel like they're getting it," said Morelo. "Its like, oh, were talking here. So, I feel as an artist, I have to be brave and do my work. And just hope for the best."He said that he doesnt have the answers for polarization but still believes in forgiveness, tolerance and dialogue."Take citizens living in New York, or living anywhere. It's like having roommates, you know? You got to learn how to live with each other," he said.He stressed perspective, saying that despite the hostility, he reminds himself that "most people are all right.""For the people out there that hate me, I mean, it's just chalk."

    6 of the most heartwarming moments in Ryder Cup history
    As intense as the Ryder Cup can be, it also has its fair share of moments that make your eyes well up.Here are six of the most heartwarming moments in the nearly 100-year Ryder Cup history.Rory McIlroy caught heat in 2009 when he called the Ryder Cup "an exhibition" that was "not that important" to him.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMWell, Team Europe was walloped at Whistling Straits in 2021, and it was clear he had done a total 180 from his previous thoughts."The more and more I play in this event, I realize that its the best event in golf, bar none," McIlroy said, fighting back tears. "I love being a part of it. I cant wait to be a part of many more. It's the best "They've always been my greatest experiences in my career. I've never really cried or got emotional over what I've done as an individual. I couldn't give a s---, but this team and what it feels like all of that, it's phenomenal, and I'm so happy to be a part of it."The 2012 Ryder Cup at Medinah was the first since Seve Ballesteros, a major factor in what the Ryder Cup is today, died at age 54 of brain cancer.Ballesteros put Team Europe on the map when Team Great Britain and Ireland expanded to include the entire continent, making him a mainstay.Team Europe trailed 10-6 entering Sunday singles on the road. In honor of Ballesteros, Team Europe wore touches of his typical navy blue on Sunday to summon some magic, and it worked.The Europeans went 8-3-1 in the Sunday singles to win the Cup, 14.5-13.5, capped off by Martin Kaymer's cup-clinching putt.Upon the victory, Team Europe captain and fellow Spaniard Jose Maria Olazabal could barely keep his emotions in check."This one is for him," he said, covering his face with his hat.A fan favorite overseas, Darren Clarke was playing in his fifth Ryder Cup in 2006. But he was playing just six weeks after the death of his wife.Clarke entered the K Club in Ireland with a heavy heart, but the fans gave him the loudest ovations by far throughout the week.Clarke won all three of his matches, including a 3 & 2 singles victory against Zach Johnson, where Clarke almost instantly broke down in tears and shared long embraces with members of Team USA.Perhaps the best moment of sportsmanship occurred in 1969 at Royal Birkdale in England in a singles match between Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin.After Nicklaus parred the 18th, the United States had enough points to retain the Ryder Cup, so all Europe could do was lose outright. But Nicklaus picked up Jacklin's ball marker, conceding the 3-foot putt, which resulted in the Ryder Cup ending in a tie."I don't think you would have missed it, but I wasn't going to give you the chance, either," Nicklaus told Jacklin.GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL MOURNS 17-YEAR-OLD 'GOLF TEAM LEADER' WHO DIED SUDDENLYPerhaps it was a win-win for Nicklaus (although USA captain Sam Snead was said to be angry at Nicklaus for losing out on the opportunity for an outright win), but it has since become a staple Ryder Cup moment. Beginning in 2021, the Nicklaus-Jacklin Award has been awarded to members of each team who best exemplify sportsmanship. The duo also designed The Concession Golf Club in Sarasota.Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed were the first singles match on Sunday at Hazeltine, and both showed incredible emotion throughout the entire 18 holes. McIlroy would hush the USA crowd after putts, while Reed would bow to their applause.On the par-three eighth hole, McIlroy was well away, roughly 45 feet to Reed's 15. But after making the nearly impossible putt, McIlroy, the same golfer who said he would not be "running around fist-pumping" during a Ryder Cup, let out an emphatic scream and yelled, "F---ing come on! I can't hear you!"But Reed knocked down his putt, and gave McIlroy the old Dikembe Mutombo finger wag.McIlroy, though, couldn't help but crack a smile, and after celebrating with the crowd, Reed and McIlroy fist-bumped and patted one another on the back.It remains maybe the most tense singles match of all time, and this moment doesn't exactly tear at the heartstrings, but even both golfers were able to acknowledge the beauty of a magical moment.Seve Ballesteros and Nick Faldo were two of the biggest golf rivals before the turn of the century.Both masters of their craft from overseas, the two had very different styles of play and attitudes, all while trying to beat one another on the course.But in 1995, when Faldo dropped the Cup-clinching putt, one of the first people to hug him was Ballesteros, who was holding back tears.After Ballesteros died, Faldo credited Ballesteros for helping make the Ryder Cup what it is today.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Super Bowl champion Nick Foles says he is 'pro tush push' as criticism of the play mounts
    Super Bowl champion Nick Foles is "pro tush push" as controversy surrounds the Philadelphia Eagles' famed play.In the Eagles' last two games, there have been multiple instances where the Eagles offensive linemen have appeared to jump offside, drawing criticism of the play.Foles, 36, told Fox News Digital that it doesnt make sense to ban the tush push.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Im pro tush push. Being there, I know the quality of offensive line coach they have in Jeff Stoutland, I know the quality of offensive linemen that they have and how theyre taught and the little details that make the play what it is," Foles told Fox News Digital in a recent interview."Not only that, you have Jalen Hurts running the play, who's great at this; hes probably the best in the world at it. And theres a reason those little details are why its so successful. So to ban it doesnt make sense because any team can run this play, but teams get mad because they cant do what the Eagles do because they dont have the guys teaching the play that the Eagles do."Foles said it is up to the referees, not the Eagles, to properly officiate the play."Its up to the officials, not the Philadelphia Eagles, to officiate it correctly. Were there false starts in the Chiefs game? Obviously, like with the slo-mo, you see it, there were some false starts, but thats not on the Eagles. You are always trying to get an advantage with the snap count, so theyre not always going on one, not always going on quick count, guys do jump offsides because you are trying to get that initial leverage," Foles said.SUPER BOWL CHAMPION NICK FOLES CREDITS AI FOR GETTING HIM INTO FANTASY FOOTBALL"Youre not trying to cheat the system, but you are trying to use your snap count as a weapon in the sense of like were going to be the first to the battle, we are going to be the first to get down low and get the leverage. Thats what makes the play successful, so the snap count is always used for an advantage."The one-time Pro Bowler said the tush-push is a very hard play to officiate."Its up to the officials, I dont know what they use do they use AI goggles, do they use this to continue to, when its not a gameday, to work on seeing everything fine-tuned? It probably is a very difficult play to officiate but it is a legal play. They are just going to have to call false starts if its a false start. Thats the only (solution) is to officiate it a higher intensity."Regardless of how Foles personally feels about the play, he doesnt see how the NFL can ban the play. The former Eagles star said it would be stripping the team of its competitive advantage.NFL LOOKS TO 'OFFICIATE IT TIGHT' AS CHIEFS GAME REVIEW VIDEO RENEWS 'TUSH PUSH' SCRUTINY: REPORT"I dont see how you can ban it. If you are going to ban this, then you cant let Brandon Aubrey kick field goals, you cant have Josh Allen you cant throw the ball after four seconds. Like, they have their competitive advantages because they are so good at those things; this is the Eagles' competitive advantage."Foles cited the risk of injury as a possible reason to ban the play, but said how offensive linemen who have run the play dont see it as a risk."I think the biggest argument could be injuries, but Ive talked to players about this play, and this is the play they feel least likely to get injured on; its just a dog pile. They say the impact is so minimal that they dont feel worried about getting injured on this play. So I know that theyll pull that analytical data out there, I dont have those analytics, Im just talking from guys who actually were on the front lines of running it, the linemen, and I know that they werent worried about running this play and felt safe doing it," Foles said.Foles mentioned how when he and Carson Wentz were the Eagles' quarterbacks in 2017 and 2018, before the tush push, they were highly successful with quarterback sneaks. Foles said the tush push is just a further development in what had already been a successful play for the team.Foles thinks the NFL will make some alterations to the play next season but not ban it entirely."I dont see how they can ban it. I think maybe they stop allowing players to push other players from the back, but I still think the play is successful. I dont think that stops it, so theyll probably make little changes here and there, but I dont think theyll ban it altogether," Foles said.Foles played 11 seasons in the NFL, and was named Super Bowl LII MVP for his incredible performance with the Eagles in their Super Bowl win over theNew England Patriots.The one-time Pro Bowler played five seasons with the Eagles (two different stints), one season with the then-St. Louis Rams, one with the Kansas City Chiefs, two with the Chicago Bears, one with the Jacksonville Jaguars and one with the Indianapolis Colts.Across 71 games (58 starts), Foles had a 29-29 record with a career completion percentage of 62.4%, throwing for 14,227 yards and 82 touchdowns with 47 interceptions.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Micah Parsons on potentially sacking former Cowboys teammate Dak Prescott this week: 'Going to be painful'
    All eyes will be on "Americas Game of the Week" on Fox this Sunday when the Dallas Cowboys host the Green Bay Packers, marking Micah Parsons return to AT&T Stadium for the first time since being traded.Instead of helping the Cowboys win, Parsons will be tasked with chasing quarterback Dak Prescott. And while he admits it wont be easy emotionally, hes ready for the challenge."Its going to be painful," Parsons said of the chance to sack Prescott. "Thats my guy. He was always like a good mentor for me. But you know how it is. He always told me if I ever faced him that itll be a great matchup, so Im excited to see what Sunday brings."CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMDespite the national attention surrounding his homecoming, Parsons insists hes approaching it like any other game."I accepted my fate weeks ago when the trade happened," he said. "So, for me, its just all about playing another game and just doing what I do best, and thats be a disruptive football player. I think the media and the fans are trying to blow it up to be such a big thing. But I just look at it as just another game at AT&T."COWBOYS OWNER JERRY JONES SAYS MICAH PARSONS WON'T RECEIVE TRIBUTE VIDEO AS PACKERS HEAD TO DALLAS IN WEEK 4The trade dominated headlines when it went down just days before the start of the season. Many expected Parsons would sign a long-term extension with Dallas, but owner Jerry Jones ultimately honored his trade request. Green Bay acquired Parsons in exchange for first-round picks in the 2026 and 2027 NFL Drafts, plus defensive tackle Kenny Clark.The Packers quickly made Parsons the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history with a four-year contract reportedly worth up $188 million and $136 million guaranteed.Through three games, the move has raised questions for Dallas. The Cowboys defense has faltered, and they nearly started 0-3 if not for Brandon Aubreys 60-plus-yard field goal that forced overtime against the Giants in Week 2, where Aubrey later won it. Dallas sits at 1-2 after last weeks blowout loss to the Bears.Green Bay, meanwhile, is 2-1 despite a surprising loss in Cleveland. Parsons has tallied 1.5 sacks and five combined tackles so far, continuing to anchor a strong defensive front."Besides the fans, just the teammates, the support staff I mean, they made this transition so great and Im just extremely honored and blessed to be with such a great group of guys that want to win and that just want to play football," Parsons said. "I think weve been playing really good football so far, so that helps, and I just hope we continue that."For Parsons, it may be just another game. For the Cowboys and their fans, its the return of a star who grew up dreaming of wearing the star and became a four-time Pro Bowler in Dallas. Kickoff is set for 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday.The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
