Welcome to FTW's NASCAR Feud of the Week , where we provide a detailed breakdown of the latest absurd, funny and sometimes legitimate controversies and issues within the racing world. We have two feuds this week following Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway, which Denny Hamlin ended up winning . The first seems kind of serious but incredibly petty, all of which could lead to arguments in the coming weeks or revenge on the track. The other feud seems much more fun, more mature and something that two buddies could easily move on from. So let's dive right into it. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. vs. Kurt Busch During the final laps of the Gander RV 400 at the track nicknamed the Tricky Triangle, these two made contact and caused enough trouble to send the race into overtime. Trouble for Kurt Busch and Michael McDowell! OVERTIME. NOW.

That seems like it's simply the result of hard racing, making Stenhouse's reaction a bit disproportional. Stenhouse bounced off the wall and was able to continue, but he then made contact with Busch and the No. 1 Chevrolet's back bumper and spun him, which triggered a multi-car wreck and brought out the caution flag. Busch subsequently his Michael McDowell in the No. 34 Ford, which spun out too.

With one win this season, Busch is the only one of this group automatically qualified for the 10-race, 16-driver playoffs this fall. Did Busch and Stenhouse talk after the race? No, according to NASCAR , the two drivers didn't attempt to speak to each other afterward. But then Busch made a comment about it on Twitter, passive aggressively claiming to take the high road while still hurling a not-at-all veiled insult at Stenhouse. (Note: Taking the high road probably means not mentioning it at all or handling it privately.) Stenhouse, obviously, didn't appreciate that. Take the road on over if you really want to handle it. You have my number - Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (@StenhouseJr) July 29, 2019 Busch, the 2004 Cup Series champion, didn't respond, so that's all we have to go off of. But it doesn't seem like these two are done tangling yet in a season that goes through November. However, the point is Stenhouse likely overreacted on the track, and Busch opted for an unnecessarily passive aggressive tweet. And all that means is this is the pettiest NASCAR feud of the season so far. Is this Ricky Stenhouse Jr.'s only feud of the 2019 NASCAR season? Not even a little bit, as Stenhouse has developed a reputation for causing wrecks, particularly at superspeedways. A friend of mine asked me, luck or skill? I said avoid #17 at all costs… pic.twitter.com/NjtobxMHMr - Kurt Busch (@KurtBusch) March 19, 2019 The No. 17 Ford driver got off to a rocky start to the season, clashing with three drivers through the first three races. Overheard on the Daytona 500 radio audio, multiple drivers and teams - including Clint Bowyer, Aric Almirola's No. 10 Ford team and Landon Cassill's No. 00 Chevrolet team - criticized Stenhouse. Most notably, Joey Logano said Stenhouse "sucks" and called him "Ricky Stankhouse" on the radio. The following week, Stenhouse's actions on track enraged Martin Truex Jr. , who went on an expletive-filled rant against the No. 17 driver. And then he got into it with Erik Jones , who Stenhouse also feuded with just last week and vowed revenge . We'll see if this continues or if Stenhouse feuds with someone new this weekend at Watkins Glen International for the second road-course race of the season. Daniel Suárez vs. Darrell "Bubba" Wallace Jr. The events that led up to this one are significantly less clear, but also judging by their reaction on social media, it's also far less serious. After Bubba Wallace finished 22nd and Suárez finished 24th, the two were seen having a heated but not violent disagreement on pit road.

Both said there was no issue between them. pic.twitter.com/Ii4JwmBAfI - Jordan Bianchi (@Jordan_Bianchi) July 28, 2019 Although this discussion is clearly intense, this is how normal, mature adults handle their differences. They talk about it, reach a conclusion and move on. So whatever the issue was between the two drivers - perhaps a middle finger from Wallace at a minimum but maybe more - it appears to be over now. Or over enough for them to joke about it on social media.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- More millennials, Gen Xers and baby boomers are looking for healthy investment returns in health care and large-blend ETFs, a study of portfolio data at TD Ameritrade reveals. "Those over 65 are turning to ETFs for their efficiency, cost, exposure to emerging markets and diversification of their portfolio," said Lule Demmissie, managing director of investment products and retirement at TD Ameritrade. "Millennials have smaller portfolios and less disposable income to invest." "Over the past 24 months," she said, "TD Ameritrade has seen a 20% increase in accounts with a 50% increase in assets under management [in ETFs] for clients over the age of 55." "ETFs are a better choice for greater diversification, because mutual funds often carry with them a minimum purchase requirement of $1,000 to $2,500," Demmissie said. The findings illustrate a shift in investment trends between 2012 and 2014: Clients ages 26 to 35 hold 13.63% of their total assets in ETFs, while clients ages 66 to 75 have 6.11% in ETFs, and clients 76 and older have just 3.73% in ETFs. According to company data, all generations have been stepping back from international stock ETFs since 2012, with the largest decreases coming from millennials and retirees ages 66 to 75. "It has to do with geopolitical risk," said Demmissie. An even greater decline was to be found in commodities ETF holdings, and again, the greatest retreats were made by boomers and retirees. "The [commodities] indexes had been on a downtrend, and our clients are moving on par with the market," said Demmissie. "A lot of these commodities all over the world have taken a hit." By contrast, large-blend ETFs had the largest allocation growth, with their share of portfolios increasing 7% on average across all age groups. Large-blend ETFs invest in large-cap stocks across a number of industries. "The U.S. market continues to be the most popular market among large-blend ETFs, with ETFs that track the S&P 500 being the most popular, along with the Russell 1000, Dow Jones and S&P 100 ," she said. TD Ameritrade further found that investors ages 56 and up are more apt to invest in health care-related ETFs than millennials and Gen Xers, because the industry is more relevant to boomers due to their age. "Boomers are more familiar with these companies as they are taking more medications than millennials," she said. Investing in ETFs also make sense for pre-retirees because of their lower fees. "In this interest rate environment, saving on fees is top of mind," said Demmissie. According to Morningstar, the expense ratio for ETFs is an average of 0.25% compared to 1.2% for mutual funds. "Boomers are shifting more assets into ETF for greater efficiency and lower cost," said Demmissie.


KOSICE, Slovakia (AP) -- Anthony Mantha scored twice to lift Canada to a 5-2 victory over France at the hockey world championship on Thursday. Mantha opened the scoring on a 5-on-3 power play with a slap shot in the opening period and added his second for a 4-2 lead in the final frame. Mantha now has a team-high five goals and four assists from four games. After starting with a loss to Finland, the Canadians have bounced back with three straight wins. They still have to face Germany, Denmark and the United States in their remaining preliminary-round games. Darnell Nurse, Anthony Cirelli and Mark Stone also had a goal apiece. Damien Fleury and Anthony Rech scored for France. In another Group A game in Kosice, Kaapo Kakko scored his sixth goal and had an assist as Finland came from a goal down to top Denmark 3-1. The 18-year-old winger, who is one of the top two prospects for the NHL draft with American Jack Hughes, is tied with Russia's Evgenii Dadonov for most goals at the tournament. Finland moved to second place in Group A with 10 points, two behind leading Germany and one ahead of Canada in third. In Group B, Gabriel Landeskog scored just 69 seconds into his first game at the tournament to kickstart Sweden's 9-1 rout of Austria. Landeskog, who also had two assists, only arrived in Bratislava on Thursday morning to join the two-time defending champion after his Colorado Avalanche were eliminated from the NHL playoffs. William Nylander had a goal and an assist to join Russsia's Nikita Kucherov atop the scoring chart with 10 points from three goals and seven assists. Later in Group B, Jakub Voracek scored twice and had two assists to help the Czech Republic rally from two goals down to beat Latvia 6-3. After four games, the Swedes and the Czechs are both tied on nine points, trailing undefeated Russia and Switzerland by three points. ------ More AP sports: https://apnews.com/apf-sports and https://twitter.com/AP--Sports Related slideshow: Best of 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs (provided by imagn)


Police evacuated a building in Alpharetta Tuesday morning after they received a report of an armed person. After investigating, the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety said they were not able to confirm that there was an actual armed person at Fiserv off Westside Parkway in Alpharetta when they responded just before 10 a.m. "No shots have been fired, no injuries, this is not an active shooter," police said on social media. At the time, they said there were " employees still hiding in the building " and that officers were checking floor-by-floor. At around 10:50 a.m., officers gave the "all clear" and said no gunman was found. They said they are still investigating how the alarm was activated and that "We have no reason to believe there is a dangerous armed person on the loose in our community."


On the heels of the team's rookie minicamp, the Cleveland Browns signed three undrafted rookie free agents who participated on a tryout basis. The Browns confirmed signing three players: CB Jhavonte Dean RB Trayone Gray LB Willie Harvey Harvey tweeted out his success on Sunday night. Dean and Gray are both products of the Miami Hurricanes program, which now represents 10 percent of the 90-man roster. Harvey went to Iowa State but is a native of Miami. Dean fits the Browns profile of a long, light (he's 6-1/185) outside CB with ball skills. Gray brings the thunder as a 233-pound interior runner. Harvey fits the role of off-ball outside linebacker with blitzing and coverage skills. To make room for the newcomers, the Browns waived RB Darrin Hall, CB Ashton Lampkin and LB Xavier Woodson-Luster.

It is looking like it may not be a busy summer in the transfer window for Liverpool. The European champions return to pre-season on July 6, having completed one signing in 17-year-old Dutch centre-back Sepp van den Berg from PEC Zwolle for £1.3million. Alisson, Fabinho, Naby Keïta and Xherdan Shaqiri were all brought into the club last summer after the arrival of Virgil van Dijk, but it seems Jürgen Klopp is happy with the squad he has. There are plenty of bright young stars amongst the Reds' youth ranks, however, and Klopp will most likely introduce them over the course of the pre-season and use a few in the domestic competitions next season. So, with Van den Berg now amongst the ranks, here are five others to keep a close eye on. Yasser Larouci The youngster joined the Liverpool youth set-up from Le Havre in 2017, which has produced the likes of Riyad Mahrez, Dimitri Payet and Paul Pogba. Larouci, 18, arrived at the club as a winger before being converted to a left-back by the Reds' Under-18s coach Barry Lewtas. He had an eye-catching performance last season during Liverpool's FA Youth Cup victory over Manchester City, earning praise from Lewtas due to his pace and power, and could be given the opportunity to showcase his talents during pre-season. Adam Lewis The 19-year-old has impressed for the Reds' Under-23s side under Neil Critchley, and is being touted as a replacement for Alberto Moreno. Lewis can feature either at left-back or in midfield, so is therefore versatile, something which Klopp favours. Liverpool are on the lookout for a new full-back to provide competition for Andy Robertson, and the scouser, who signed a new deal back in February, could be the perfect option. Lewis appeared for England's Under-19 side in the European Championship finals last summer, and later went on to make his debut for the England Under-20s in September 2018. Abdi Sharif The 18-year-old has recently signed a new deal with the club and could form part of Klopp's plans for the upcoming season. He is a versatile player who can play in the middle of the park, at right-back and even at centre-back. Born in Somalia but raised in Toxteth, Sharif was an important part of Lewtas' Under-18 side last season. He made his full Under-23s debut in January, going on to score his first goal at the level against Chelsea in April and was another to impress in the victory over Manchester City in the FA Youth Cup Final. Ki-Jana Hoever The 17-year-old, who joined the club from Ajax in September 2018, is the only one of five players on this list to have made a senior appearance. Hoever is expected to make the step up to the first team as back-up to Trent Alexander-Arnold next season, with Nathaniel Clyne expected to depart. Hoever, who made his debut in the FA Cup third round clash against Wolves in January at the age of 16, has great calmness and ability on the ball. He starred for the Netherlands at this summer's successful Under-17s European Championship and is ready for more first-team action. Rhian Brewster Liverpool fans are desperate to see the 19-year-old striker be given the chance to shine in the upcoming campaign. Pre-season can't come soon enough for the youngster, as he looks to continue to be a part of Klopp's plans moving forward. With Daniel Sturridge having departed, the London-born teen must now be given the opportunity. He previously netted eight goals for England's Under-17 side at the 2017 World Cup in India, winning the Golden Boot and Bronze Ball. Brewster was on the books at Chelsea since the age of seven but chose Liverpool's academy as a 15-year-old in 2015. He's been at the club ever since and signed a professional contract in June 2018.


AUSTIN, Texas   A year after a high school mass shooting near Houston that remains one of the deadliest in U.S. history, Texas lawmakers are on the brink of going home without passing any new gun restrictions, or even tougher firearm storage laws that Gov. Greg Abbott backed after the tragedy. A Republican governor pushing even a small restriction on firearms kept at home in gun-friendly Texas was a landmark shift after two decades of loosening weapons regulations. And it put Texas in line with other states exploring ways to prevent not just mass shootings, but thousands of lethal gun incidents involving minors. But the state's effort was met with a swift and severe rebuke from gun-rights advocates who have all but killed the issue. The anniversary of the shooting at Santa Fe High School is Friday. "I saw my friend and co-worker killed," Flo Rice, a Santa Fe substitute teacher who was shot five times that day, told lawmakers. "Had stricter gun laws been in place, maybe the shooter's father would have had his guns locked up, 10 lives would have been spared ... It is too late for Santa Fe, but maybe this bill will save other children's lives." Her words had little impact. In the final two weeks of the legislative session, Texas lawmakers are instead moving toward arming more school personnel , boosting campus security measures and mental health services for teenagers. Those also were ideas from Abbott, who has gone silent on the issue of gun storage safety since first proposing it. "It's really sad," said Ed Scruggs of Texas Gun Sense. "Here we are coming up on the one year anniversary and they're not doing anything but putting more guns in schools and hardening school sites. And this was something that could have applied directly to a situation like Santa Fe." Police have alleged the Santa Fe shooter, a student at the school, used his father's shotgun and handgun to kill eight students and two substitute teachers. Thirteen others were wounded. Within days, Abbott held a series of roundtable discussions on school violence with victims and gun rights and gun control advocates. Ideas that emerged included increasing the penalty for gun owners   from a misdemeanor to a felony   when minors take and use their firearms to harm or kill someone. Texas has no requirement that all firearms be locked up. The blowback was almost immediate. Members of the Legislature's "Freedom Caucus" vowed to oppose home gun storage regulations as government overreach on the right to bear arms. Gun rights groups insisted firearms must be kept easily available for self-defense. "I will fight it forever," Rep. Jonathan Stickland, a Republican, tweeted hours after Abbott first backed tighter gun storage laws. Within a month, opposition to the plan was part of the 2018 state Republican party platform. The gun storage penalties, and a plan for a statewide public service campaign on safe storage, still had some GOP support when lawmakers convened in January. One of the primary sponsors of the Senate's gun storage bill is Republican Sen. Joan Huffman, a former prosecutor and judge from Houston. She's also the chairman of the Senate committee where her bill was assigned. The session ends May 27 and Huffman has yet to give her own bill a hearing. "That's the clearest signal possible" that Republican leadership wants to make sure the bill will die, said Mark Jones, political science professor at Rice University. Despite their strong majorities in the House and Senate, Republicans want to avoid any votes that could be interpreted as anti-gun in a state with more than 1.3 million handgun license holders, Jones said. "An overwhelming majority still worry far more about the Republican primary than the general election," Jones said. "They are always worried about being outflanked on the right." Huffman and Abbott's office did not respond to requests for comment. The House at least gave the gun storage bill a late-night committee hearing to hear testimony, but didn't take a vote. Rice, the wounded teacher, was among a handful of witnesses. With the aid of a cane, she limped to the podium to plead with lawmakers to pass the bill. She was immediately followed by Rachel Malone, Texas director of Gun Owners of America, who opposed the measure. "We should give (gun owners) freedom to protect themselves," Malone said. "Guns are used more often to protect innocent lives than they are used to take it." The bill for a statewide safe storage campaign fell flat. Representatives of the NRA and the Texas State Rifle Association lobbied against it, arguing that gun rights groups and gun manufacturers have already created similar campaigns that are distributed to gun stores and shooting ranges. That way, gun owners get "content delivered from a source they trust," NRA lobbyist Tara Mica told lawmakers. A state campaign designed by the Texas state police could easily be corrupted by anti-gun rhetoric, she said. The ability to stonewall two bills that had the support of Abbott just a year ago proves the muscle of the gun lobby in Texas, said Rep. Joe Moody, a Democrat. "It shows the stranglehold that unreasonable zealots have over this issue," Moody said. "And that's a sad state of affairs given where we were a year ago in Santa Fe."


The Kings have the NBA's longest postseason drought, having not appeared in the playoffs since 2006. Still, while they were unable to snap that streak in 2018-19, it represented the team's most promising season in years   in fact, Sacramento's 39-43 record was its best mark since that '05-06 campaign. While breakout years by young building blocks like De'Aaron Fox and Buddy Hield bode well for the Kings going forward, it's not clear that the dysfunction plaguing Sacramento for years is totally behind the organization. Here are five key questions facing the franchise this summer: 1. Did the franchise make the right call hiring Luke Walton? That dysfunction I mentioned in the introduction surfaced during the 2018-19 season in large part due to tension between head coach Dave Joerger and the front office   specifically assistant GM Brandon Williams. There was a disconnect between the two sides on how much playing time veterans and prospects should receive, and Joerger made some comments hinting that he might not have been entirely on board with the Kings' decision to draft Marvin Bagley over Luka Doncic . By parting ways with both Joerger and Williams, the Kings made an effort to remove that potential discord from the equation entirely going forward. They quickly replaced Joerger with Luke Walton, a coach who received some praise for his work with young players during his early days with the Lakers. However, the Kings perhaps moved too quickly to lock up Walton. Just a week after they announced his hiring, word broke that he was being sued and accused of sexual assault. The Kings now found themselves in a tricky situation. Hiring Walton and then dismissing him before he coaches a single game would be a bad look for the franchise, but it would arguably be an even worse look if the team retains him despite finding the claims against him to be credible. Before determining whether he's the right fit on the court, the Kings will have to do their best to determine whether there's truth to the off-court allegations against Walton, and whether that would disqualify him from keeping the job. The Kings and the NBA are currently investigating the allegations . 2. What will happen with Harrison Barnes ? Barnes finds himself this summer in a situation that's not uncommon for veterans for player options. There's virtually no chance he'll match his $25M+ player-option salary in 2019-20 if he opts out. But he could definitely exceed that total amount on a longer-term deal. In other words, if the Kings are prepared to offer him, say, a three-year, $60M contract in order to lock him up for a few years and to increase their 2019 cap room by reducing his '19-20 cap hit, would that be worth it for Barnes? Or would he prefer to pick up his player option, then try his luck at a long-term contract in 2020? If the Kings aren't convinced after Barnes' 28-game audition down this stretch this season that he's worth a significant investment, it may simplify his decision. The most likely scenario, in my view, is that he simply opts in and takes the big payday for 2019-20. But if he turns that option down in June, there's reason to believe that he recognizes a bigger offer is coming from Sacramento. 3. Will the Kings attempt to bring back Willie Cauley-Stein ? Many of the Kings' free agents   including veterans like Kosta Koufos and Corey Brewer   are good bets to head elsewhere this offseason. However, it remains unclear what the team's plan is for Cauley-Stein, who will be eligible for restricted free agency. Cauley-Stein started all but one game for Sacramento in 2018-19, and he was reliable up front, averaging 11.9 PPG and 8.4 RPG in 27.3 minutes per contest. His on/off-court numbers also reflected his value, as the team was better both offensively and defensively when he played. That doesn't necessarily mean that the Kings are prepared to invest heavily in the 25-year-old center though. It also doesn't mean he's eager to return, especially if Sacramento plans on getting young bigs like Harry Giles and Bagley more minutes going forward. With the right of first refusal on Cauley-Stein, the Kings will have the ability to match any offer sheet he receives, but it's hard to imagine a rival suitor making too aggressive a play for a center who doesn't shoot from outside and isn't a strong rim protector. It wouldn't be shocking if Cauley-Stein becomes one of those RFAs who remains on the market beyond July in a stalemate with his previous team, but perhaps he and the Kings can find common ground before it gets to that point. 4. How will the Kings use their cap room? Even if they have Barnes' player option and Cauley-Stein's cap hold on their books, the Kings should have well over $20M in cap room this summer, putting them in position to be a player in free agency or on the trade market. The Kings have never been one of the league's most popular free agent destinations, particularly during their lengthy playoff drought, but general manager Vlade Divac will likely be tempted to make a splash on the market this year. After all, his team was in contention for a postseason spot for most of the 2018-19 season. Maybe the right free agent addition, along with continued improvement from his young players, is all Sacramento needs to get over the top and earn a top-eight spot in the West. Nonetheless, the Kings should remain cautious when approaching free agency. While their cap situation is favorable for now, it's just a matter of time until players like Hield and Fox get huge raises, so the team will want to avoid compromising its future flexibility by investing in the wrong player. The Kings' best move, assuming they can't land a marquee free agent, might be to take a page from the Sixers' book   when Philadelphia was on the rise, the team signed J.J. Redick to a pair of one-year deals that looked like overpays on paper, but presented no long-term risk. Redick served as an important veteran leader and a key piece of the rotation, while the short-term nature of his contracts allowed the 76ers to retain its flexibility each summer. 5. Will the Kings extend Buddy Hield? As noted above, second contracts for many of the Kings' youngsters are around the corner, and that's especially true for Hield, who becomes extension-eligible in July for the first time. The timing couldn't be better for the former centerpiece of Sacramento's DeMarcus Cousins trade. He's coming off a breakout season in which he averaged 20.7 PPG on .458/.427/.886 shooting. Few sharpshooters were more dangerous in 2018-19 than Hield, who ranked fifth in the NBA in total 3-point attempts (651) and ninth in 3-point percentage. There's no rush for the Kings to lock up Hield right away. He'll be eligible for restricted free agency in 2020, at which point Sacramento would have the ability to match any offer to retain him. But letting him reach free agency could be dangerous, particularly if he takes another step forward in 2019-20. A young scorer and shooter like Hield will command huge offers. If they can lock up Hield at a reasonable rate this offseason, the Kings should jump at the chance to do so. Not only would they avoid having to deal with a potential offer sheet a year from now, but securing Hield would show that the Kings are willing to reward their core players and that those players, in turn, believe Sacramento is a franchise worth committing to. It would be a major step in the right direction for an organization that has spent more than a decade mired in the lottery.


The Bruins have been here before: in St. Louis, with the Stanley Cup on the line. The previous iteration was 49 years ago but culminated in arguably the most famous goal in NHL history, as Bobby Orr flew through the air in celebration. This time, however, the situation is reversed. St. Louis has a chance to win the Cup on Sunday, going into Game 6 with a 3-2 lead over the Bruins. Bobby Orr's flight, the mid-air celebration of his overtime goal, is immortalized in bronze next to the TD Garden in Boston, and in the minds of many thanks to the iconic photo. Orr may have been the lasting image of the 1970 finals, but he was one of many stars on that Bruins team, including Phil Esposito. We asked Esposito for his recollections of the series. 'There was no way'The way Esposito remembers it, St. Louis never had a chance. He might not be wrong either. That Bruins team was deep (like another team that seemed destined to win that Tampa Bay knows all too well). "We had the best player in the world in Bobby," Esposito said. "We had the best scorer in me. We had the best second line, if you want to call it that. Johnny Bucyk. Gerry Cheevers. Dallas Smith was one of the most underrated defensemen in my mind." The top five in points that playoffs were all Bruins (St. Louis had the next four spots). In the regular season, Orr led the league in points and Esposito in goals. Cheevers didn't lead the league (Esposito's brother Tony did), but was in the top 10 in save percentage and goals-against average. "There was no way St. Louis was going to beat us," Esposito said. "We were too (gosh darn) good." 'It was the way the expansion was'Why didn't St. Louis have a chance? Esposito summed it up: "Because they were an expansion team." Expansion rules weren't like the Golden Knights' draft two years ago, or even the Lightning's 26 years ago. Vegas demonstrated what you can do given the chance to pick off good players buried in rosters. The Blues had no such opportunity. "You couldn't get the second goalie," Esposito said. "You couldn't get the fourth defenseman, or maybe the seventh forward or even the fifth forward. No chance. None." He liked the players on the Blues, respects players like Brett Hull, rapidly listing off six more. Esposito said they were good guys and great players, but overmatched as a team. 'Far and away the guy'That series will always be tied to Orr. There are not many championships as defined by a single moment as the image of Orr parallel to the ice. Esposito had a "terrific series" as leading scorer with eight points in four games (two goals, six assists). He also led the playoffs in scoring with 13 goals and 14 assists. But it was Orr all the way. "Bobby was far and away the guy," Esposito said. "Even before he scored that goal. He was the guy." Sometimes an overtime goal can come from the least likely of sources, someone not known for scoring who capitalized on one of few chances in a tight game. This was not one of those times. Orr was the best player on the ice and everyone knew it. 'Money for the summer'There was more than pride on the line with the Cup back then. Esposito and his teammates had an extra motivator. "It was about the Cup but it was about the money for the summer," Esposito said. Most players, including the stars, had to get a summer job in the offseason. Esposito worked at a steel plant in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, in the offseason until 1972, including after winning the Cup. 'Almost broke my jaw'As they got ready for overtime, Esposito looked at Derek Sanderson and said if he started, Sanderson wasn't getting on the ice. Esposito played on the second line, while Sanderson was on the first with Orr. Sanderson retorted that the same was true if he started overtime. The latter was right. And he made sure to remind Esposito. Forty seconds into overtime, he assisted Orr's goal and Esposito almost broke his jaw in celebration. "I had my mouth open, I was screaming, I jumped over the bench and my foot got stuck," Esposito said. "It was wonderful. "I think I woke up and I was in Fort Lauderdale. I don't know how I got there." ___ (c)2019 the Tampa Bay Times (St. Petersburg, Fla.) Visit the Tampa Bay Times (St. Petersburg, Fla.) at www.tampabay.com Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

It looks harmless-a small clump of frothy bubbles that cloaks the spittlebug while it eats-but the saliva of a young spittlebug can be lethal to a great number of plants, from grape vines in California to olive trees in Italy and oaks in the U.K. That's because the spittlebug (AKA froghopper) is a carrier for the bacteria Xylella fastidiosa, a deadly plant disease that essentially chokes a plant and desiccates it from the inside out; there's no way to cure a plant once it's been infected. Other leafhoppers and sharpshooters can also transmit the bacteria. Even scarier: Because the spittlebug injects its drool (with bacteria) into a plant every time it sucks the sap, the disease can spread quickly, as wide-reaching as the spittlebug can fly. It's like something out of a horror movie. But really, it gets worse: Apparently, the bacteria is not too finicky about its host plant, and it can infect more than 300 varieties , including ordinary garden herbs, like rosemary and lavender, and common trees like oak, according to Dr. Rebekah Robinson , senior plant pathologist at the Royal Horticultural Society. After learning of its effects on crops in California and other parts of Europe, scientists in the U.K. are launching a preemptive strike and sounding the alarm, calling for thousands of volunteers to report any sightings of spittlebugs and their distinctive saliva, also known as "cuckoo spit." Once discovered, all potential host plants within 328 feet (or 100 metres) will have to be destroyed . That's a lot of trees and plants! Here in the States , the disease has been discovered in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas, though it's most critical in California, where the massive farm and wine areas are particularly vulnerable. A variety of biological, chemical, and mechanical warfare is being used to control the spread of spittlebugs and other potential carriers. So if you're at a park and see the telltale clumps of bubbles, tell someone, like a ranger! Or if it's your own garden, spray it off with a hose and contact your local pest control company, because it won't just be your own garden that will be in jeopardy.

Two Goodyear hotels recently broke ground as metro Phoenix's west side continues to grow. The two hotels, Tru by Hilton and Springhill Suites by Marriott, will have a combined 178 rooms and share a corner off Interstate 10 and Bullard Avenue. Both are expected to open in spring 2020 and will hire a total of about 50 employees. The two hotels will join a growing roster of hotels planned for the West Valley, stretching from Avondale to Glendale. Several more West Valley hotels planned There's a push across the West Valley for more hotels as cities gear up to host the next Super Bowl at State Farm Stadium in four years. After a 2018 announcement that Arizona would host the Super Bowl for a fourth time, Arizona Cardinals President Michael Bidwill said the NFL asked organizers to book three times as much event space at different venues. For more stories that matter, subscribe to azcentral.com . Across the West Valley, 13 other hotels are at various stages of planning and development . That includes an Aloft Hotel, opening near Westgate Entertainment District in Glendale, and a Hilton Garden Inn, which recently opened near Surprise Stadium. The region has plenty of venues to draw visitors, ranging from spring-training ballparks for nine MLB teams to the home of the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium, but it has long been overshadowed by longstanding tourist draws such as Scottsdale, which has more than 9,000 hotel rooms   twice as many as the entire West Valley.

PEBBLE BEACH   This winter, Brooks Koepka told us he was able to discover balance with his newfound celebrity and find peace with the conflicted interests that come with fame. He had conviction in the man he was, promising to show the world a world he desperately kept at arm's length a different side of himself in 2019. Thus far, Koepka has kept his word. Only that side of himself is one that does not suffer fools. Koepka's play has done plenty of talking this season with a win at the PGA Championship and runner-up at the Masters. The 29-year-old has also done plenty of talking behind the mic, taking slow play and Golf Channel commentator Brandel Chamblee to task on multiple occassions. On Tuesday at Pebble Beach, Koepka continued to hold nothing back, calling out FOX Sports and his fellow players, with a between-the-lines slight at Chamblee tossed in for good measure: Regarding FOX Sports, which left Koepka the No. 1 player in the world and two-time defending U.S. Open champ out of one of its U.S. Open promos: "I actually didn't see it for a long time. A bunch of people on Twitter I think tagged me in it, in the promo. And I guess [they] were amazed that I wasn't in it. I just clicked on the link and saw it and watched it. Just kind of shocked. They've had over a year to kind of put it out. So I don't know. Somebody probably got fired over it or should [laughter]." For what it's worth, FOX has Koepka featured in three of its four promos. On players complaining about USGA course setups : "Yeah, I mean, I guess the only reason they're complaining … I mean, everybody has got to play the same golf course. So it really doesn't make a difference. It doesn't make a difference … if you put it in the fairway and you hit every green, there's really no problem, is there? "So obviously they're not doing what they're supposed to do. So they're not playing good enough. If they put it in the fairway, you shouldn't have to complain about the rough. You hit the greens and you hit it close, you shouldn't have to complain about the greens. "I've just never been one to complain, make excuses. It doesn't matter. Nobody wants to hear anybody's excuse. I find it annoying even when I play with guys and they're dropping clubs or throwing them or complaining, like telling me how bad the golf course is or how bad this is. I don't want to hear it. I don't care. It doesn't matter to me. It's just something we've all got to deal with. If you play good enough, you shouldn't have a problem." In response to what golf news he watches : "Yeah, at night when we're done we'll flip on the Golf Channel for a little bit and see what they're talking about at the end of the day, what Frank and David and Rich are talking about. So we'll see. Yeah. We just see what they're up to. We'll watch it for a little bit. And most of the time -- I mean, this week, probably not, with the NBA Finals and the hockey and everything going on. I'd rather watch that than turn on the Golf Channel." Notice which name is missing in that group? Koepka even took a dig, if somewhat unintended, at Willie Anderson, the only player to win the U.S. Open three straight times. Koepka noted that he doesn't know much about Anderson and didn't bother to look him up on Google. So much for that chip shrinking off Koepka's massive shoulders. "You've always got to find something to give you a little bit of extra motivation," Koepka said. "Sometimes it's blatantly obvious." Koepka will continue his hot streak golf, that is on Thursday, teeing off with Open champ Francesco Molinari and reigning U.S. Amateur Viktor Hovland at 1:47 p.m. Check out Golf Digest Schools for the best in video golf instruction WATCH: GOLF DIGEST VIDEOS See the video.

LeBron James has many interests, with greatness and wine ranking very high on his list of favorite things. But one of the world's biggest soccer stars gave him a special gift, combining two of LeBron's favorite things. France national and Paris St. Germain star Kylian Mbappe brought LeBron James a special gift from his native France, in a bottle of wine that was harvested in LeBron's birth year of 1984.

It's a question that resurfaces every year for parents of school-age children: At the end of summer, should we let them sleep in and squeeze every ounce out of their fleeting freedom? Or should we guide them toward earlier and earlier bedtimes and wake-ups so they will be better adjusted for that first day of school alarm? Does it even make a difference? Some parents have strong opinions on the matter. "My parents took the tactic of incrementally putting me to bed earlier and waking me up earlier, and I resent it to this day," said Julie Wargo, now the mom of two teenagers herself. "Especially in this era of mid-week and half-day school starts, their little body clocks figure it out. And it's not like there's going to be a calc test the first week of school." Julie Biggs, a teacher and a mother to two elementary school children, said she firmly believed in the gradual transition. "I want the first day of school to be less chaotic. As a teacher, well-rested children are better received," she told TODAY Parents. "We started last week putting them to bed 30 minutes earlier each night until we reached the desired bedtime of 7:30 or 8." "We started transitioning them last week," said mom of four Sarah Sharpe of Lake Mary, Florida. "And we are back to our 'no electronics during the school week' rule too." Sharpe posted a picture of her son Lincoln on Facebook after she woke him up early in preparation for his first day of school. It included a quote from him: "Waking people up for 'practice' is rude," he said. "Really rude." Other parents said that while they aim for a gradual, incremental transition ahead of the new school year, they mostly end up practicing the "rip off the Band-Aid" method by default. "We used to gradually go back to a normal bedtime schedule, but then we went on vacation one year that had us returning home the day before school started, so we weren't able to use that approach," said Shell Roush of Jacksonville, North Carolina. "We found the 'rip the Band-Aid off' approach worked just fine, so we kept doing it for subsequent years. "None of us enjoy the school year early bedtime/early wake up routine, so we might as well get the most out of our lazy summer days as we can," she said. And Renee Saur of Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, told TODAY Parents she doesn't take the incremental transition route with her three children "because we can't get our lives organized enough to get to bed early." Still other parents said they deal with the issue by keeping a school year schedule throughout the summer. For households with both parents who work outside the home, sleeping in isn't necessarily even an option for kids. "Our schedule does not change in the summer. We work, so we have to get up in the morning, and our son has to go to day camp," said Maine mom Zsofi McMullin. "So no late nights or sleeping in. For those maybe two weeks of actual vacation, we do allow later bedtimes, but that's not enough to have to retrain us for the school year." Child development expert Dr. Deborah Gilboa told TODAY Parents neither method is superior, and parents will ultimately decide what works best for their children. "Like so many other aspects of our kids' personalities and health, there is not one right answer for adjusting a sleep schedule," said Dr. Gilboa. "Moreover, try as we might, kids who are in or past puberty often simply can't fall asleep before 10 or 11 p.m. no matter what time they have to get up." "My advice is to ask yourself what you know about your child and your family's patterns and schedule, and do what works best in your home," she said. "A little good news: most children and teens can catch up on sleep on a weekend in ways that adults can't. So one piece of advice is to refrain from overscheduling Labor Day weekend to allow for some sleeping in." This story was first published on August 7, 2017, and has been updated.


The Maserati Levante may be an SUV, but you imagine that most owners only use them for things like commuting, grocery shopping, going to the mall, or dropping off kids at soccer practice. This particular Levante actually got the hardcore mudding treatment it always deserved. The Italiansupercarvideo YouTube channel caught this twin-turbo V-6-powered Levante Q4 at the Autodromo di Modena's off-road track in Italy, bombing through mud puddles and sliding through dirt without a care in the world-a far cry from the traffic-filled concrete jungles where you'd expect to see a Levante. Aside from losing a piece of fender trim along the way, this Levante seems to do a pretty good job of muscling its way through the course. It's proof Maserati's SUV is good for more than just flashing that trident badge at your local nightclub. Research the Maserati Levante on MSN Autos


Shares of Foot Locker plummeted nearly 16 percent in morning trading Friday, as the shoe retailer's fiscal first-quarter earnings missed Wall Street profit and revenue estimates. The company is under pressure as shoe companies, like Nike, are bypassing retailers altogether by selling directly to their customers. Meantime, the broader shoe industry is facing its own challenges, as President Donald Trump has threatened to levy more tariffs on footwear imported from China. It is one of more than than 170 shoe retailers, including Nike, Under Armour and Adidas that recently sent a letter to the White House asking Trump to reconsider. Here's what the company reported for the quarter ended May 4 compared with what Wall Street was expecting, based on average analysts' estimates compiled by Refinitiv: Adjusted earnings per share: $1.53 vs. $1.60 expected Revenue: $2.08 billion vs. $2.11 billion expected On an unadjusted basis, Foot Locker reported fiscal first-quarter net income of $172 million, or $1.52 per share, up from $165 million, or $1.38 per share a year earlier. Net sales rose 2.62% to $2.08 billion, missing expectations of $2.11 billion.

All he wanted to do was plug up a wasp nest because he's allergic to bees and worried about being stung. It was a hot day. The rancher in the Northern California hamlet of Potter Valley walked into a bed of waist-high cured grassland, driving a stake into the ground. That created a spark that grew into the largest wildfire in state history. The blaze grew larger by the second and the man's attempts to smother it with dirt were futile. Authorities this week released their findings on the cause of the Ranch fire, the largest of the two blazes in the massive Mendocino Complex that began last summer and was not contained until January. In all, 459,123 acres and more than 280 structures were burned. One firefighter was killed and three injured. Investigators released a harrowing narrative of how the monster fire happened that experts say underscores how easy it is for fires to explode during hot, dry conditions in California. "In the middle of summer, when we see rolling hills golden, which the gold is dry grass, it can look picturesque," said Seth Brown, battalion chief for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection's Fresno and Kings county division. "But what firefighters are thinking is, 'That's fuel.'" While utility malfunctions have been the cause of some of California's most destructive fires in recent years   including Paradise and wine country   officials say human causes like the rancher's stake are by far the most common. "What we've seen in the past is people wait too long to call because they think they can extinguish it themselves. And instead of being a 10-by-20-foot fire it's an acre. Then fast forward ... and now it's 5 acres," Brown said. "We don't expect the person who doesn't have experience to fully understand the potential. But we're always trying to educate." Cal Fire investigators did not name the Potter Valley rancher, and he is not expected to face any charges because the blaze was ruled an accident. Officials said that once the fire started, he shuffled through the waist-high grass and grabbed his trampoline and a rug, then threw those onto the flames, hoping they'd do the trick. Instead, the trampoline caught fire, and the flames spread to a 60-by-12-foot shade cloth on the ground and ignited the bed of grass it was on. The flames wrapped around his water tank and moved 25 feet downhill toward Highway 20. He turned to a black polyurethane tube connected to the water tank, but the fire burned it until it kinked, cutting off the connection. In desperation, he broke off a PVC line also connected to the water tank and tried to squeeze the flow toward the flames, but the PVC hole was too wide, his thumb too small and the fire was too far for the water to reach it. So the rancher tried one last thing   he disconnected his trailer from his four-wheel-drive truck then drove to the front of the fire, which was now racing up hill toward his second water tank, and hit the gas so his tires would kick up dirt to knock down the flames. But his tires lost traction and he lost control of the vehicle. The rancher bailed out before the truck rolled down into an embankment. Out of options and his cellphone lost somewhere in the field, the rancher sprinted 200 yards back down to his home and called 911. Over the following weeks, the fire vanquished every attempt to stop it. In its first 12 days, it jumped at least four creeks, a major road and a bulldozer-cut firebreak, all of which have traditionally served as defensive fronts in firefighting. But feeding on tinder-dry vegetation and driven by winds that produced flames up to 300 feet high, the fire's heat created paths all around it, pre-heating grass and shrubs so they could burn a moment later. It spread in all directions and reached into four counties before it was out. Repeated fires without enough years in between to recover can also replace native vegetation with invasive species, which are even worse in fire. Many of the country's biggest fires start off as grass fires. According to the National Interagency Fire Center based in Idaho, two of the three biggest "mega fires" in the last 20 years were grass fires   the East Amarillo Complex fire in Texas in 2006 that torched 907,245 acres of land and the Northwest Oklahoma Complex fire in 2017 that charred 779,292 acres. Recent human-caused fires in California include the Carr fire, which killed eight people last year and was started by a trailer creating sparks on the highway, and the Wildomar fire, which burned almost 900 acres in the Cleveland National Forest in 2017, and was started by a dirt biker crashing into a tree. Other common causes are lawnmower blades or metal weed whackers striking rocks, creating sparks, experts say. Grass is the fastest burning fuel type in the state. Brown estimated that grass   which is even more plentiful this year after one of the wettest winters in a decade   can burn across 20 feet in a second amid light wind. "California was just one of those places that was designed to burn," said Thomas Welle, who manages the National Fire Protection Assn.'s field office in Denver, on the rim of the Great Plains. Welle said that based on his experiences with grass fires, the rancher in Potter Valley didn't have much of a chance to stop the Ranch fire before it was uncontrollable. In 2002, Welle was part of a prescribed fire in Colorado. He used a drip torch to ignite a patch of grass, about the size of two 50-cent pieces side by side, then stomped it out. A moment later, the grass reignited. "It took me about six times before I finally got that small patch of grass out where that resilient heat in the clump of grass wouldn't reignite," he said.

Video by CNN WASHINGTON - Stephanie Grisham, the communications director for first lady Melania Trump and a longtime aide to President Donald Trump, will succeed Sarah Sanders as White House press secretary, Mrs. Trump announced on Tuesday. Melania Trump announced the development in a tweet to close out the president's search for a press secretary after Sanders decided to resign and go back home to Arkansas earlier this month. Grisham, 42, a fixture in the Arizona Republican Party, was one of Trump's first hires - as a press aide in 2015 - of his presidential campaign. She served as a deputy press secretary in the White House when he took office in January 2017 and eventually moved over to the first lady's operation. A clue that the president was leaning toward Grisham for the job was when aides said she had now been added to the White House team going with Trump to the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan, this week. The fact that Mrs. Trump announced the appointment, instead of the president himself, showed that the first lady was willing to part with Grisham for the greater good. Grisham will have the dual role of press secretary and communications director. Sanders had essentially been doing both roles as well, without the communications director title. Melania Trump's tweet said: "I am pleased to announce @StephGrisham45 will be the next @PressSec & Comms Director! She has been with us since 2015 - @potus & I can think of no better person to serve the Administration & our country. Excited to have Stephanie working for both sides of the @WhiteHouse. #BeBest" Grisham was viewed internally as the candidate with the best rapport with President Trump, a key requirement. With his tweets and multiple exchanges with reporters, Trump is in many ways his own press secretary and communications director, and Sanders' role grew to being a senior adviser. Whether Grisham would bring back the daily press briefing was unclear. Trump has all but ended the practice and it has been more than three months since the last one. The other top candidate had been Sanders' principal deputy press secretary, Hogan Gidley. Tony Sayegh, a former Treasury Department spokesman, had been considered as well but was in the midst of a move home to New York. Former State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert withdrew herself from consideration. Gidley tweeted his congratulations to Grisham. "Amazing announcement! So proud and blessed to have my good friend @StephGrisham45 working with our team. She is a rockstar and perfect to fill Sarah's shoes!" he said. Sanders is contemplating a political future in Arkansas, considering a 2022 run for governor, a position once held by her father, Republican Mike Huckabee.

It's fast, but there are some drawbacks. Renovo, a company better-known for creating software for self-driving cars, caused a huge wave of praise and despair when it revealed a fully-electric Shelby Cobra Daytona it had created. While this isn't the first classic car to be given the electrification treatment, the fact the racer is rare and highly coveted is what really angered some enthusiasts. To them, it's the equivalent of drawing on the Mona Lisa with crayon. Renovo said it purposely picked an American icon as an act of patriotism. The Renovo Coupe isn't exactly cheap, considering the original price was set at $529,000 when it released in 2015. All the cars were made in Silicon Valley. While you might groan at a classic car being electrified, especially one as iconic as the Shelby Cobra Daytona, there admittedly are some advantages. That electric powertrain produces 1,000 lb.-ft. of torque from a standstill, so the car can really scoot in a hurry. In fact, it does 0-60 mph in a smoking 3.4 seconds, blowing away the original acceleration. Yeah, it does all that with an eerie whining instead of the rumbling and roaring of a V8 engine, but even without all the saber rattling the car is just plain fast. Of course, there are drawbacks to electrification. We're spoiled with gas, because you just stick a nozzle in and the tank is full in only a few short minutes. While this Shelby has been outfitted to work with a fast charger, you still have to wait 30 minutes before the battery is replenished. To keep the curb weight down, Renovo skimped on the battery. That means a range of about 100 miles. But who would take this out for a weekend trip? The interior has some interesting features. There's still a shifter, so you get the exhilaration of rowing through gears, but the gauges are digital by necessity. Is the Renovo Coupe an atrocity or an undeniably American supercar of the future? You decide.

Cobb, who spent his first eight seasons with the Packers, eventually signed a one-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys. "I know there was never an offer put on the table (from the Packers), before or after the offer from Dallas and a couple other teams," Cobb said. Cobb said he would have considered returning to the Packers had the team made an offer. Instead, Cobb took a deal to join Dak Prescott and the Cowboys in Dallas. It's early, but he stood out during the offseason workout program . Cobb, who turns 29 in August, said he'll be fueled by his departure from Green Bay. "It's like the ex-girlfriend that broke up with you," Cobb said jokingly. "Obviously, you draw fuel from situations, good and bad." The Packers play Cobb and the Cowboys on Oct. 6 in Dallas.

Clemson is adding a former top-50 recruit to its roster. Texas Tech transfer Khavon Moore has pledged to coach Brad Brownell and the Tigers, he announced Thursday. New Beginnings…🙏🏾 pic.twitter.com/wchG1hWxwU   _shelovesKD (@KhavonMoore) May 16, 2019 The 6-foot-7 Moore, a former four-star recruit, played just 2 minutes last season for the Red Raiders and saw his season shutdown amid medical concerns due to lingering issues from a broken leg he suffered in high school. The plan was for him to seek a medical hardship redshirt for last season, which could allow him to still have four years of eligibility remaining at Clemson after sitting out the upcoming season as a transfer. The Tigers went 20-14 last season and missed the NCAA tournament for the seventh time in nine seasons under Brownell. Texas Tech, meanwhile, continues to build a monster even with departures like former high-profile recruit.


Two American teenagers have confessed to fatally stabbing a police officer in Rome on Friday, according to authorities. Deputy Brigadier Mario Cerciello Rega was allegedly killed by the two American college students shortly after they had stolen a backpack from an Italian man and then tried to extort the victim for "100 euros and 1 gram of cocaine," according to a police statement. The Italian man agreed to pay the Americans after reporting the extortion attempt to police. The authorities attempted to arrest the Americans when they showed up for the exchange, but a scuffle broke out and Rega was stabbed and killed, Italian police said. Rega worked for the Carabinieri, Italy's paramilitary police corps, in Rome. A spokesman said the officer was dressed in plainclothes at the time of the stabbing. (MORE: Amanda Knox returns to Italy for 1st time since her acquittal) The two Americans, Finnegan Lee Elder and Gabriel Christian Natale Hjorth, both 19, and from San Francisco, were able to escape briefly, but investigators tracked them to their luxury hotel room and managed to detain them as they were planning to leave the country, authorities said. "The two, once in the barracks, were questioned by the Carabinieri, under the direction of the magistrates of the Public Prosecutor of Rome, faced with overwhelming evidence, they confessed," the Provincial Command of Rome said in a statement, translated from Italian. Police said they searched the Americans' hotel room, and a knife "of considerable size" was found hidden in the ceiling along with the clothes believed to have been worn during the stabbing. Authorities said they captured the crimes on surveillance video. A decree of detention has been issued for the U.S. citizens for aggravated murder and attempted extortion, the Carabinieiri said. (MORE: EU court reaffirms their ruling that Amanda Knox's defense rights were violated) The two are being held at the Regina Coeli district jail in Rome. The pair were allegedly trying to buy drugs just before the stabbing, but were sold a fake substance, a spokesman from the Carabinieri's press office told ABC News. Authorities believe the man they stole the bag from was not involved in the drug deal, but may have told the Americans where they could purchase drugs before he was robbed of his bag, the spokesman said. Early reports by Italian media that the Americans went to John Cabot University are not true, a school spokesperson told ABC News. Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini posted a photo of Rega from his wedding last June on his Twitter account. Salvini had said before the official announcement of the teens' arrests and confessions that they would make the culprits "pay dearly," according to The Associated Press. ABC News' Kirit Radia contributed to this report.

With a winter storm looming in the Midwest, all eyes will be on the turnout in the Iowa presidential caucuses that begin at 8 p.m. (ET) tonight. It's a battle of political outsiders versus more established figures. And if there is a tidal wave of turnout with many newcomers in the Hawkeye State's 1,681 precincts, then political experts are predicting it will be a very big night for the two quintessential anti-establish figures, Republican billionaire Donald Trump and democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. Related: Less than 12 Hours Until Iowa Decides If Trump and Clinton Will Hold Angry white men and conservative Christians are chomping at the bit to cast their votes for Trump, with his tough anti-illegal immigration policies and vow to make American great again. Meanwhile, fresh-faced students and other liberal Democrats are eager to support Sanders in his crusade against Wall Street and the "billionaire class." But if there's bad weather and turnout suffers, it could turn out to be a much better night for Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, the champion of the tea party and many evangelical Christian voters, and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is locked in a tight race with Sanders for the Democratic presidential nomination. That's because Trump and Sanders do far better among prospective first-time caucus goers than Cruz and Clinton, while Cruz and Clinton do far better among prior caucus goers in their respective parties, and older people who are more inclined to vote, according to a new survey by Quinnipiac University . Out of the 2.25 million voters in the state, just 147,255 took part in the caucuses in 2012. This time around, turnout is expected to be between 160,000 and 250,000 Republican and Democratic voters. Related: The Trump-Cruz Food Fight We've All Been Waiting for Is On "The size of the turnout tonight will likely be the key factor, especially on the Democratic side," said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University poll . "High turnouts with lots of new caucus participants likely would mean a good night for Sen. Bernie Sanders, and for Donald Trump." Trump runs ahead of Cruz, 40 percent to 22 percent, among first-time GOP caucus goes, while Republicans who have attended prior caucuses narrowly favor Cruz over Trump, 26 percent to 25 percent, according to the poll. The difference is far more pronounced on the Democratic side, with Sanders pounding Clinton among first-timers, 62 percent to 35 percent, while the former secretary of state leads the Vermont senator 52 percent to 41 percent among voters who attended caucuses in 2012 or before. Notably, 44 percent of Republicans interviewed in the past week and 38 percent of the Democrats say this will be their first caucus. And right now, barring a major turn of events or early evening snow and ice, Quinnipiac University pollsters and other analysts are anticipating a strong turnout. Blessed with a solid lead among prospective first-time GOP caucus participants, Trump has jumped to a 31 percent to 24 percent over Cruz, according to the Quinnipiac poll, with Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida running third with 17 percent. Related: Trump's Sloppy Iowa Campaign Could Bite Him Back Meanwhile, on the Democratic side, Sanders now has 49 percent of the likely caucus goers, compared to 46 percent for Clinton and three percent for former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley. A new Des Moines Register-Bloomberg poll released over the weekend tells a slightly different story, with Trump leading Cruz 28 percent to 23 percent, and Clinton holding a modest lead over Sanders, 45 percent to 42 percent. According to one weather report, a winter storm is headed towards the region from Colorado and could unleash a blizzard into early Wednesday. Cruz and Clinton may be hoping the bad weather strikes sooner rather than later.

In his first year with the Los Angeles Rams, Sean McVay took home Coach of the Year honors in 2017. Despite improving his team's record from 11-5 to 13-3 last season, McVay did not win the award for the second straight year. With another strong roster and Super Bowl aspirations yet again, McVay should be a contender for Coach of the Year in 2019. Younger coaches and those with less talented rosters typically garner most of the attention and votes, but the Rams don't have that "super team" feel they had last year after acquiring Ndamukong Suh, Brandin Cooks, Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters. In fact, they're actually getting somewhat overlooked. That bodes well for McVay's chances of winning the award as he was given the third-best odds by Bovada. (1/2) Odds to win 2019 NFL Coach of the Year (Bovada): Shanahan +1000 Kitchens +1100 McVay/Belichick +1200 Reich/Payton/Reid +1400 Pederson +1600 LaFleur/Nagy/Fangio/Arians/Quinn/Lynn +2000 Carroll +2200 Marrone +2500 O'Brien/Gase/Zimmer/Harbaugh/Tomlin/Garrett +2800 - Odds Shark (@OddsShark) August 1, 2019 Kyle Shanahan and Freddie Kitchens are both great picks to win Coach of the Year. They don't have the experience that many of the other coaches do, yet their teams are budding with potential. If the Browns win 11 games and make the playoffs, or the 49ers bounce back to win the NFC West, they should absolutely be the front-runners. As for Bill Belichick, who's tied with Sean McVay at +1200, his Patriots don't look like juggernauts despite winning the Super Bowl six months ago. Their receiving corps is depleted, they're without Rob Gronkowski, and several starters departed in free agency. Pete Carroll is +2200 to win Coach of the Year, while first-year Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury is +3300.

It's been a busy offseason for Lions running back Zach Zenner. The fan favorite became a father for the second time, and he's also been busily preparing for his medical school exams. Zenner passed the MCAT after his senior season at South Dakota State. But instead of jumping into med school at that time, he pursued his other dream. Four years later he's still a Detroit Lion and could be poised for a bigger role with a more run-oriented offense. With an eye on his post-football future, Zenner kept up with the studying. He used the whiteboards in the Lions facility to help chart things out and prepare to retake the MCAT. It worked. According to ESPN , Zenner scored a 518 on the exam. That's in the 96th percentile and qualifies Zenner to get into just about any medical school he desires. Pretty impressive for an active NFL player with two kids under age 2 at home. But that will have to wait until his NFL career comes to an end.

Don't return that middle of the night phone call if your cellphone only rang once. The Federal Communications Commission on Friday alerted consumers about a wave of "One Ring" robocalls after detecting "widespread overnight calling" in both New York and Arizona. The scam calls, also known as "Wangiri"   which is Japanese for "one ring and drop"   are an attempt to trick customers into phoning the number back. If you do, it can result in getting billed toll charges as though you called a 900 number. "Generally, the One Ring scam takes place when a robocaller calls a number and hangs up after a ring or two," the FCC said in a press release. "They may call repeatedly, hoping the consumer calls back and runs up a toll that is largely paid to the scammer." According to the FCC the callers are using the "222" country code of Mauritania, a nation in West Africa, to carry out their scheme. In addition to not returning the phone call, officials encouraged people against calling back numbers they don't recognize   especially if they appear to be international. And if you don't typically receive international calls, block all phone calls coming from outside the country, the FCC said. Consumers are also urged to file a complaint if they have been targeted in the scam and to keep an eye out for charges on their phone bill that they do not recognize.


Video by PGA.com FARMINGDALE, N.Y.   Picking the hardest hole at Bethpage Black is like debating ice cream flavors. Every answer, to some degree, is correct. Statistically speaking, the 15th held the honor Thursday, surrendering just four birdies and wreaking havoc with 82 bogeys or worse. It's the epitome of the Black's toughness. Need to hit it long, need to hit it straight, and need to hit the green. Anything else is FUBAR. A special accent on the first two requirements. Players that found the rough hit the green just 15 percent of the time; only 30 percent of the field was able to scramble for par. Rory McIlroy had already taken care of the hard part. He punched in the launch codes for his drive and pressed send, his ball traveling 336 yards off the tee. It trickled off the fairway but came to a halt in the manageable intermediate cut. The drive was 50 yards farther than the field average on the 15th, the longest of the day. Mission, accomplished. So there was McIlroy, standing just 160 yards away from a pin, a short iron in hand where most held a 5-iron. His swing was sweet, the impact solid, trajectory true. Due to the 15th's elevation, a player cannot see their ball land. McIlroy, believing his shot to be good, waited for confirmation from the throngs that followed his grouping with Jason Day and New York adopted son Phil Mickelson. But the crowd, as boisterous as any on the day, remained silent. McIlroy took the hint, and shook his head. His ball went long, a spot one absolutely cannot go on the 15th, a spot that led to a bogey. As he walked to the 16th, there was a look back down the hill and another head shake. How could that have possibly gone wrong? McIlroy finished with a two-over 72 on Thursday. The score leaves him T-53, nine shots back of Brooks Koepka. It looked better. Should have been better. He led the field in strokes gained/off-the-tee. He hit 15 greens one more than Koepka, tied for second-most. That's not just executing strategy; that's a "sold my soul" level of production. "I felt like I gave myself enough chances today to shoot something sort of in the mid-60s," McIlroy said. Unfortunately for McIlroy, the providence stopped at the putting surfaces. They are not particularly hard, Bethpage Black's greens, at least compared to major championship venues. Throughout the week, the players have made a point to remark on their consistency and condition. But when the Ulsterman reached them, he stood behind his lines as if he was trying to decipher Pig Latin. "They are deceptive. That's why I've been using the green book a bit this week because they are very subtle," McIlroy said. "Actually reminded me of greens from back home that are quite flat, and they just have little subtle breaks here and there." The subtlety was enough of a curveball to submarine McIlroy's round. He had a whopping 36 putts on the day, ranking 113th in strokes gained/putting. His lone birdie make came at the final hole. "It was either wrong speed at some times or sometimes just a little bit of line, either way, you know, high or low," McIlroy said." The rest of his short game wasn't much better. He was one-for-three in scrambling for par, and despite being around the green in two on both par 5s, he failed to make birdie. By the numbers, McIlroy has had worse displays. Given the symphony he orchestrated tee-to-green, though, this out-of-tune display was tough on the ears. This also continues a troubling trend for McIlroy. Though the signage around Bethpage reads "PGA," the setup leans toward USGA. The field averaged 73.064 on Thursday, a figure higher than the 2009 U.S. Open scoring mark (72.928). While McIlroy is a former U.S. Open champ, the tournament has not been kind to the 30-year-old, as Rory has posted just one top-20 finish since his 2011 triumph at Congressional. Blame it on his reliance of bomb-and-gouge or a string of bad luck. Whatever your taste, there's no denying that, when the score board calls for a race to 16-under, McIlroy is one of the best in golf. When it calls for mitigating mistakes, his name has been curiously absent. It is just one round, in the midst of a strong campaign one featuring a Players victory . For his part, he remains positive heading into Friday. "Keep hitting good shots. Don't let it frustrate you. Keep hitting good putts," McIlroy said. "Eventually things will turn. Hopefully that birdie on the last was the turning point, finish on a positive note and come back tomorrow and hopefully get into red figures for the tournament." Bad rounds happen, especially at Bethpage Black. But, as his indignation on 16 showed, it's a tough swallow considering what could have been.
