It sucks.” It’s not surprising that Corso is not taking to retirement since college football and “College GameDay” were such an integral part of his life before his August retirement.

Schlossberg has sparked controversy for a series of off-kilter posts and videos, including creepy ones aimed at Second Lady Usha Vance – but insisted he’s only holding up a “mirror to the kind of political, cultural attacks, personality attacks that are levied against” his political dynasty family. The Democrat has also torn into his own cousin, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., RFK’s wife Cheryl Hines, lawyer Alan Dershowitz and other…

The Paris prosecutor announced four more arrests Tuesday in connection with the stunning heist at the Louvre Museum in October by a gang that made off with $102 million worth of jewels. The two men and two women taken into custody are from the Paris region and range in age from 31 to 40, said the prosecutor, Laure Beccuau, whose office is heading the investigation.
