    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    The next Super Bowl will be held in Los Angeles. And while it's still early days this season, the odds aren't half-bad that, for one team, the big game will be a home game. The Rams are a, maybe the — premier NFL franchise: blue chip; gold standard. This preseason, we were invited inside their huddle, so to speak. We found an organization that wins with contradictions: prudence and gunslinging. Change and continuity. Brawn, yes, but also brain. And the Rams are wound tightly on the team's tightl

    The Los Angeles Rams enter the 2026 NFL season as a Super Bowl favorite, but head coach Sean McVay is "tormented." He was named the NFL Coach of the Year for the 2017 NFL season, just after becoming the youngest head coach in modern NFL history, and, a few seasons later, won the Super Bowl in 2022.

    This is an updated version of a story first published on Oct. 5, 2025. The original video can be viewed here. If you've never before heard of the national vaccine court, you're hardly alone. As we first reported in October, it sits inconspicuously, a few hundred yards from the White House; and stands as a model of effective public policy, balancing the societal good of widespread vaccination with rare individual harm. Founded in the 1980s, the court has, with little fanfare, paid out billions of
