NFL
Marion County (Ind.) prosecutors charged Fox Sports broadcaster and former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez on Sunday morning for his alleged role in a physical altercation that resulted in him being stabbed and hospitalized in downtown Indianapolis.
Sanchez, 38, faces charges for battery resulting in injury, public intoxication and unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, according to a police statement.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department arrested Sanchez at the hospital on Saturday after an incident that led to his stabbing.
In a statement on Saturday, Fox Sports said Sanchez was in stable condition. In response to a follow-up query on Saturday, the network said: “We have no further comment at this time.”
The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department indicated in a social media post Saturday afternoon that Sanchez was stabbed during “a physical disturbance” early that morning.
“The incident involved two adult males, resulting in one man receiving lacerations and the other sustaining injuries consistent with stab wounds. Detectives believe this was an isolated incident between the two men and not a random act of violence,” the police said at the time.
Authorities said that they identified the two individuals involved and reviewed video footage of the incident as part of their investigation.
In its statement, Fox Sports said Sanchez “was injured in Indianapolis on Saturday and is currently recovering in the hospital in stable condition. We are deeply grateful to the medical team for their exceptional care and support. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mark, and we ask that everyone please respect his and his family’s privacy during this time.”
Sanchez was in the city to cover Sunday’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and Las Vegas Raiders as part of Fox’s broadcast team and attended the Colts’ practice Friday. NFL analyst Brady Quinn will cover the game in Sanchez’s absence.
Sanchez, the No. 5 draft pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, joined Fox in July 2021 as a game analyst.
During his nine-year tenure in the league, the former USC Trojan spent four seasons with the New York Jets, who drafted him. Sanchez went on to briefly play for the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys and Chicago Bears before retiring with Washington.

The Jets shared a message of support for Sanchez on X shortly after reports of his hospitalization surfaced.
“Sending our thoughts and love to Mark Sanchez and his family. Hoping for a speedy recovery, 6,” the Jets said, referring to his jersey number.

Key Points
All signs point to a strong year-end rally for Bitcoin. Or do they?
Year to date, Bitcoin (BTC 0.66%) is up 30%, capped off by a sizzling early October rally that has already seen its price hit $120,000. That’s just a stone’s throw away from an all-time high of $124,457, which it hit during the summer.
So is Bitcoin a buy now? Or are there better buys out there right now in the crypto market? Let’s take a closer look.
Image source: Getty Images.
If history is any guide, Bitcoin performs best in the final quarter of the year. Typically, Bitcoin shakes off a summer malaise sometime in September, and then goes on an epic rally in the months of October and November.
This is just not an anecdotal observation. It’s backed up by more than 10 years of data. Since 2013, Bitcoin has increased in value by 20% in October, 46% in November, and another 5% in December.
Overall, Bitcoin has increased in value by an average of 80% in Q4. Two of the best fourth quarters ever were in 2017 and 2020, when Bitcoin went absolutely ballistic.
Thus, Bitcoin’s early October rally has crypto market participants already talking up the potential of yet another “Uptober.” The problem, of course, is that past performance is no guarantee of future performance. There’s no rational reason to explain why Bitcoin does so well in the final quarter of the year, and that’s what makes me nervous.
That being said, a growing number of analysts and investors are convinced that Bitcoin is about to rally hard. Citigroup (NYSE: C), for example, recently put out a research note to its clients, suggesting that Bitcoin could hit $132,000 by the end of this year, and then $181,000 next year.
That’s on the conservative side. In September, Tom Lee of Fundstrat suggested that Bitcoin could nearly double in value to hit a price of $200,000 this year. According to Lee, a series of aggressive Fed rate cuts could incentivize investors to move their money into riskier, more speculative assets such as Bitcoin.
And there are countless catalysts that could send Bitcoin to $180,000. Citigroup primarily focuses on strong demand from institutional investors, who are using the spot Bitcoin ETFs as an easy, convenient way to get their exposure to Bitcoin. As long as flows into these spot Bitcoin ETFs remain positive, they should help to push the price of Bitcoin higher.
Moreover, the ranks of Bitcoin treasury companies continue to grow. This is another important source of demand. These Bitcoin treasury companies are accumulating Bitcoin at an unprecedented pace. According to data from BitcoinTreasuries.net, the top 100 Bitcoin treasury companies hold over 1 million BTC, or approximately 5% of all Bitcoin in circulation. That, too, helps to give Bitcoin a very nice floor going forward.
If you zoom out and take a big picture view, though, there are a lot of reasons to be concerned about Bitcoin. For example, Bitcoin is hardly the top-performing major cryptocurrency. Yes, Bitcoin is up 30% for the year, but Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) is up 35% and XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) is up 45%. Right now, crypto investors appear to be displaying a clear preference for riskier altcoins.
Moreover, Bitcoin is not even outperforming gold right now. Over the past year, gold is up 45%. So why would you settle for 30% gains with Bitcoin right now? On a risk-adjusted basis, gold would appear to be the better buy.
Moreover, if you want to embrace the “Bitcoin seasonality effect” as an important catalyst for future price appreciation, then you probably also need to accept the historical data surrounding the Bitcoin halving. After each halving event, Bitcoin typically goes on an epic rally for a period of 12 to 18 months, before ultimately crashing in value.
Well, the last halving took place in April 2024, so it’s soon going to be 18 months. As a result, red danger signals should be flashing right now, alerting investors that the Bitcoin rally of the past 18 months could be coming to an end soon. Just look back to November 2021, when Bitcoin suddenly nosedived in value after hitting a (then) all-time high of $69,000.
Yes, Bitcoin is a phenomenal asset to hold over the long term, but it’s prone to periods of extreme boom and bust. So if you decide to load up on Bitcoin now, be prepared to hold through what could be very intense turbulence ahead.

A couple have won a huge £23 million on the lottery after 'cracking its code'.
Jerry and Marge Selbee, from Evart in Michigan, managed to scoop the enormous win over a number of years after they found a legal loophole in two different lottery games.
The couple had planned to retire in their 60s, but back in 2003, everything changed when Jerry popped into a corner store which he used to own.
He spotted a new lottery game and noticed it had a 'special feature' called a 'rolldown'.
Advert
Jerry – who has a degree in maths – said he took just three minutes to 'crack its code', before going on to win millions.
The format of the game worked differently to usual lotteries.
Varying from the standard rule where the jackpot keeps building until someone hits all six numbers – if the jackpot reached $5 million, and no one matched all six numbers, all the money 'rolled down' to the lower-tier prize winners, who matched five, four or three numbers.
Jerry's exploits have become the subject of a feature film named Jerry & Marge Go Large – which was released in 2022 and stars Bryan Cranston.
Advert
Jerry has since explained just how he did it – but bare with us as it definitely gets a bit confusing.
He told CBS: "Here's what I said. I said if I played $1,100 mathematically I'd have one 4-number winner, that's 1,000 bucks.
"I divided 1,100 by six instead of 57 because I did a mental quick dirty and I come up with 18.
"So I knew I'd have either 18 or 19 3-number winners and that's 50 bucks each.
Advert
"At 18 I got $1,000 for a 4-number winner, and I got 18 3-number winners worth $50 each, so that's 900 bucks.
"So I got $1,100 invested and I've got a $1,900 return."
It didn't take long for Jerry and Marge to start playing for thousands as Jerry said: "We played $515,000 and we got back $853,000."
However, things changed when Michigan suddenly shut down the game in 2005.
But, as one door closes another one opens and the couple managed to find an almost identical game in Massachusetts called Cash Winfall where they were able to earn even more.
Advert
The couple would drive 900 miles to the state every time there was a 'Rolldown' and would buy hundreds of thousands of tickets at two local shops.
They said they would play 10 hours a day, 10 days straight, with over '$600,000 per play. Seven plays a year'.
Jerry added: “Our first play was $80,000 with 40,000 tickets, and our last play was $712,000 with 366,000 tickets.
“We did spend 11 to 14 nights at the motel in South Deerfield and it was something we looked forward to.
Advert
“It was something different and it was profitable and it was able to help our family and help our friends out with a little financial boost.”
The Massachusetts state treasurer eventually shut down the Cash Winfall game.

LISBON, Portugal, Oct. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The XRP Tundra presale has advanced to Phase 5 , with TUNDRA-S available at $0.091 and a 15% token bonus , accompanied by free TUNDRA-X allocations valued at $0.0455. Launch prices are fixed at $2.50 for TUNDRA-S and $1.25 for TUNDRA-X , providing participants with structured clarity from entry to listing. Bitcoin holders are among those diversifying into the offering, seeking exposure to dual-token opportunities within the XRP ecosystem.
Why Bitcoin Investors Are Participating
Bitcoin remains the leading digital asset, widely regarded as a store of value. However, many Bitcoin holders are seeking additional opportunities that provide clear presale pricing, defined launch values, and broader ecosystem participation.
XRP Tundra’s presale appeals to this audience by offering two tokens in one purchase , with transparent allocation terms and cross-chain functionality spanning Solana and the XRP Ledger (XRPL). This model presents a diversified exposure strategy that extends beyond Bitcoin’s single-asset framework.
Explaining the Dual-Token Model
By distributing both tokens together, XRP Tundra separates day-to-day utility from long-term governance and stability , offering a balanced structure that reduces conflicts between speculative activity and oversight.
Liquidity Measures for Token Protection
To support stability during its launch phase, XRP Tundra integrates Meteora’s DAMM V2 liquidity pools. This system applies dynamic fees that start at elevated levels — as high as 50% in the earliest stages — and gradually decline over time.
The structure is designed to:
Liquidity providers receive NFT-based records of their positions, with the option for permanent liquidity locks that guarantee a baseline of depth and reliability in trading markets.
Verified Oversight and Public Documentation
XRP Tundra has undergone several independent reviews to ensure transparency ahead of launch. Smart contracts were audited by Cyberscope, while Solidproof conducted additional verification of system components. A separate review has also been published by Freshcoins.
Beyond code audits, team identity has been confirmed through Vital Block KYC, providing public accountability for project leadership. These measures combine to offer participants visibility into technical integrity, token allocation, and governance responsibilities.
Official Statement
“Bitcoin has defined an era of digital value, but there is clear demand for structured opportunities that go beyond simple price appreciation,” said Tim Fénix , spokesperson for XRP Tundra. “Our presale introduces a dual-token structure, defined launch values, and verified safeguards, creating an ecosystem designed for participants who want clarity and long-term stability.”
About XRP Tundra
XRP Tundra is a cross-chain initiative operating on both Solana and the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The project introduces a dual-token model — TUNDRA-S for operational utility and TUNDRA-X for governance and reserves — supported by liquidity protections and independent audits. Future development includes GlacierChain , a DeFi layer for XRP designed to support lending, automated market makers, and derivatives.
