The Los Angeles Chargers and Dallas Cowboys must have spent their Sunday hanging out, watching pregame fights around the NFL. A day after the San Francisco 49ers and Cleveland Browns had a big pregame brawl, the Chargers and Cowboys followed their lead and scuffled before their game on Monday night. Punches were thrown and it appeared that Chargers running back Austin Ekeler had his helmet pop off after getting hit. It's rare to see a fight between teams during pregame warmups, but it happens from time to time. Players get upset when opponents invade their space, or there's some trash talking that goes too far. The Chargers were apparently blocking the Cowboys' entrance to the field, which led to the fight, according to ESPN's Todd Archer. You can assume that the NFL, which isn't thrilled at two big pregame fights happening in Week 6, will view the video of both closely and hand out some fines. As for Monday night, the pregame skirmish set the tone for a pretty good matchup.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
