In a letter sent to the Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the 46 senators called for the creation of a “humanitarian parole category” for female journalists, members of the Female Tactical Platoon of the Afghan Special Security Forces and other groups. They also urged the administration to streamline the process for “fast, humane, and efficient relocation” to the U.S. “We are gravely concerned about the safety of women leaders, activists, judges, parliamentarians, and human rights defenders,” the letter read....

“We’re always going to try to keep our guys,” Baalke said in a Tuesday night media session (via the San Jose Mercury News). “Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.” MORE: NFL’s highest-paid players | Defensive players are cashing in | Best 49ers of all time The longest-tenured 49er, Davis, 31, is entering his 10th season and revealed earlier this week that he was distracted last season by his efforts to get a new contract....

The 49ers (0-2) will host the rival Rams (1-1) in Santa Clara, Calif. (8:25 p.m. ET, NFL Network). On Tuesday, we got a glimpse of the teams’ Nike Color Rush uniforms for the NFC West contest. Both uniform sets remind us a little of college football. The Rams are going with a look similar to that trotted out by Michigan in its season-openning win over Florida. The 49ers’ all-black look is a bit of a flashback to last weekend when Louisville dialed up the hype for its eventual blowout loss to Clemson with a blackout (and those awesome helmets)....

Jalen Ramsey was the instigator for the Rams, and the player he chose to target was someone with whom he has a surprising history of confrontation: 49ers kicker Robbie Gould. Following a point-after attempt in Sunday’s 31-14 win for the 49ers, Ramsey was seen bumping and shoving Gould — something that caught officials’ attention but otherwise did not draw a flag: Gould didn’t seem to take offense to the brief run-in with Ramsey, telling reporters after the game he understands Ramsey’s competitiveness amid a rivalry game....

With two first-round selections, San Francisco shouldn’t have an issue targeting at least one impact receiver early. From there, the team could go a number of ways in fortifying its NFC championship-winning roster. Sporting News’ Vinnie Iyer, in his seven-round mock draft, zeroes in on the receiver he believes the Niners will target with their first pick in Round 1 Here’s a closer look at the 49ers’ mock draft:...

MORE: Free agency winners and losers He lost the bet, and was willing to pay up, but didn’t expect to pay up quite as much as he did. A few weeks ago on his podcast, Kawakami told the story (for the first time) about what ended up happening with the bet. Kawakami, a few reporters, York and York’s wife were all going to meet up for the meal. The initial tweet was to eat lunch at a local restaurant, but York changed it into dinner at French Laundry, which is a very (very) fancy restaurant....

As heavy rain poured over Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., Wentz threw for 150 yards and two touchdowns. He also totaled 23 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Elijah Mitchell scored for the 49ers (2-4) on their opening drive, while the Colts (3-4) didn’t gain any momentum on offense until the last five minutes of the first quarter. Mo Allie-Cox got Indianapolis on the board by catching an 11-yard touchdown pass from Wentz....

New York needs a healthy Jennings to change its mojo after getting outscored by an average of 18.5 points during the skid. The 49ers are making their second straight long trip after pulling out a 27-24 overtime win at New Orleans, potentially a season-changing victory. They’re going for their third straight win and cover against the NFC East, having already handled Philly and Dallas. The Giants won the past two meetings, but the most recent was Oct....

The 49ers dominated the Vikings 27-10 in Saturday’s divisional playoff game, advancing to host next week’s NFC championship game (6:40 p.m. ET, Fox) against the Packers, who beat the NFC West runner-up Seahawks on Sunday. Regardless of that result, San Francisco is headed to its first Super Bowl in seven years. Forget Shanahan’s team challenging Jim Harbaugh’s success. The 49ers’ blowout victory, which wasn’t even as close as the final score indicates, channeled the five-ring heyday of Bill Walsh and George Seifert....

Far too many action movies today boil down to takes on John Wick with another star in the lead role. Hollywood has always followed the leader, but, truly great films emerge from new ideas. Even when no one expects intelligence from a creative effort, those that manage to create something smart earn the praise they receive.

And now, almost 5 years later, here we are on Monday Night Raw where Amore and Big Cass finally made their debut and got the audience in the palm of their hands with their catchphrases.

Also, that Brooklyn accent is to die for....

In fact, some players are remembered more for their stylish avatars than their cricketing achievements. Former Indian batter Vinod Kambli was a genuinely talented cricketer. However, it is often claimed that he lost focus on the game trying to go for the extravagant.
