The New York Times has launched a new puzzle game called Connections: Sports Edition, which is currently in beta testing. The game challenges players to group 16 words into four categories that have a common thread related to sports. Players can play the game for free until it's officially released. The game's rules are similar to the regular Connections game, but with a twist. The categories and words used are all related to sports, making it a must-try for sports enthusiasts. The game is designed to be accessible to players of all levels, from casual fans to die-hard sports lovers. The article provides hints and answers for the October 24th puzzle, which had four different groupings based on Denver sports teams, weather-themed teams, F1 teams, and NFL stadiums.
