Barclays winner Reed stays red-hot in Boston
- September 03, 2016
Kongkraphan had a bogey-free 66, and Kim closed with a birdie for a 67. Thus, Fowler needs to convince team patriarch Davis Love III he's worthy of one of the four available captain's picks. Think you can pick better than me? "I was cool to be a part of and go see". Elsewhere in USA golf, the PGA of America has signed a multi-year deal with energy company Constellation as its official energy provider and sustainability partner. (more...)

- September 03, 2016
You know, I want us to be able to do more together, and only way to do that is more people know what's going on. A lot of the things I've seen wasn't even her name. Just what I have been saying .

Dodgers To Recall Yasiel Puig, Send Clayton Kershaw Out For Rehab Start
- September 03, 2016
Since breaking out in 2013 and earning an All-Star selection in 2014, injuries have limited Puig to 160 games with the Dodgers over the last two seasons.

Lincoln native Jack Sock reaches US Open fourth round for first time
- September 03, 2016
Tsonga won 6-3 6-4 7-6 (4) against the 23rd seed, but had to dig deep to do so - and never more than in the third set, when the Frenchman was forced to save a succession of set points while serving at 4-5 down. And as good as his serving was, with a top speed of 138 miles per hour and 86 percent of first-serve points won, Sock's returns were in fine form, too: He broke Cilic four times. (more...)

If there had been an issue, or it contravened any rules, I think Danny Sullivan (race steward) is a pretty experienced guy and he would have called them up.

Penn State to Honor Former Coach Joe Paterno in Upcoming Game
- September 03, 2016

Brady plays 1st half vs. Giants in tuneup for suspension
- September 03, 2016
He has good retention, good instincts, and I think he understands football. Mingo played all four quarters, his first action in two weeks after playing for the Browns against Atlanta on August 18. In any event, there was probably an audible sigh of relief across New England once Jacoby Brissett ran onto the field to take over at the start of the second half. (more...)
