Tuilleadh cigireachtaí le déanamh ar thithe altranais Emeis. The Health and Safety Authority is to carry out inspections of two nursing homes owned by the French company Emeis in light of revelations about the two places in the RTÉ Investigates documentary which aired last night. Tá an tÚdarás Sláinte agus Sábháilteachta le cigireachtaí a dhéanamh ar dhá theach altranais leis an gcomhlacht as an bhFrainc Emeis i bhfianaise ar nochtadh faoin dá áit i gclár faisnéise RTÉ Investigates a craoladh arú aréir. The Authority indicated that inspectors would look at general health and safety matters at the centres in Portlaoise and Glasnevin in Dublin. Thug an tÚdarás le fios go mbreathnódh cigirí ar chúrsaí sláinte go ginearálta agus ar chúrsaí sábháilteachta sna hionaid i bPort Laoise agus i nGlas Naíon i mBaile Átha Cliath. Concerns have been expressed about the quality of care provided in both places since the documentary revealed that vulnerable elderly people were being neglected there. Tá imní léirithe faoi chaighdeán an chúraim a chuirtear ar fáil sa dá áit ó léiríodh sa chlár faisnéise go rabhthas ag déanamh faillí i seandaoine leochaileacha iontu. There is particular concern that appropriate policies are not being implemented when moving elderly people from room to room. Táthar imníoch go háirithe nach bhfuil beartais chuí á gcur i bhfeidhm agus seandaoine á dtabhairt ó sheomra go seomra. The Health Information and Quality Authority confirmed yesterday that it was reviewing every nursing home owned by Emeis in this country. Dheimhnigh an Údarás um Fhaisnéis agus Cáilíocht Sláinte inné go raibh siad ag déanamh athbhreithniú ar gach teach altranais atá ag Emeis sa tír seo. The Authority also said that in April they had banned Emeis from accepting more patients in Portlaoise and Glasnevin but that order had fallen on deaf ears. Dúirt an tÚdarás freisin gur chuir siad cosc i mí Aibreáin ar Emeis glacadh le tuilleadh othar i bPort Laoise agus i nGlas Naíon ach gur tugadh an chluas bhodhar don ordú sin.

Four Grade 1 winners. Five millionaires. One big race. This weekend's Grade 2, $500,000 Cigar Mile at Aqueduct is punching above the weight of a December race, and it is the feature of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Fox Sports and New York Racing Association racing analyst Richard Migliore will discuss the build-up to the race and how it came up so big. He also will talk about the other graded stakes on Saturday's card, including the Remsen Stakes (G2), a Kentucky Derby prep that last year produced championship contenders Dornoch and Sierra Leone. Trainer Rodolphe Brisset, who will saddle morning-line favorite Mullikin in the Cigar Mile, will look ahead not only to this weekend's feature but also to Liam in the Dust's bid to win the Demoiselle (G2), a points prep for the Kentucky Oaks (G1). Super Screener creator Mike Shutty will handicap the Remsen, the Demoiselle and, of course, the Cigar Mile.

Last spring, a dozen horses died on the track at Churchill Downs, including two during the world’s most famous horseracing event, the Kentucky Derby. A report later released by the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority found no single cause for the deaths but made several recommendations, including expanding the use of wearable technology to detect potentially fatal injuries. Washington State University has been at the forefront to refine this technology through its partnership for the past four years with a company that makes a wearable sensor for horses that weighs less than a deck of cards. A team of WSU researchers recently published the results of a study that tested how that sensor performed while analyzing the strides of hundreds of horses competing at Churchill Downs and another track in Kentucky last year. Abnormal stride movements revealed bone and muscle damage hidden to the naked eye that had a high risk of developing into a fatal injury. Denise McSweeney, the lead author of the study and an equine surgery resident at Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, joins us to share her findings.

Welcome to Inscape Quest, a compelling podcast where we provide an intriguing insight into the world of horse racing. Today we have two trailblazing women, retired jockey and sport analyzer for NBC Sports, Donna Barton Brothers, and former jockey, racing manager and consultant, Euki Binns. Both with experience and remarkable equestrian backgrounds, they delve into their personal journey, the sport's dynamics, and their invariable passion for these majestic creatures. In this episode, they discuss their experiences as female jockeys in the traditionally male-dominated sport. They highlight how women involvement has evolved over the years, and how they overcame personal and professional challenges. Beyond horse racing, this episode is a conversation about the pursuit of passion, breaking barriers, and making a meaningful impact in unique ways. This dialogue goes beyond the glitz and glamour to explore the serious issue of horse welfare in racing. The speakers mention media misrepresentation, compare perceptions and realities of horse welfare, argue for better care of these majestic animals, and discuss the significant strides made towards reducing horse injuries. Leveraging technology and data is also a focal point, with emphasis on how predictive software like Stride Safe aids in injury prediction and prevention. Furthermore, they debunk myths surrounding medication usage in horse racing, reiterating that accidents or breakdowns are often not a result of inhumane treatment or medication misuse. They commend the work of the Horse Racing Integrity and Safety Authority in ensuring fair play and thorough testing for a broad spectrum of drugs in the sport. This episode also touches on the positive impact of horses on the economy, recreational spaces, therapy, and how horses have been notably successful in treating PTSD in veterans. Here we uncover the profound bond between humans and horses, its beneficial impact on mental well-being and its important role in maintaining green spaces. Join us as we uncover the realities and debunk the myths surrounding horse racing. Explore the nuances of the equestrian world and understand the importance of horse welfare and safety. This episode is all about taking the reins and embarking on an informative and thrilling journey into the world of horse racing and equine welfare. https://donnabrothers.com/ https://adaptivedevelopmenteq.com/ Inside Track: Insider's Guide to Horse Racing HIWU Anonymous Tip Line

In the third episode of this acclaimed series of interviews with those who lead or seek to lead US Horseracing through its most critical battle of ideas, Nick talks to the CEO of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority, Lisa Lazarus. An Ivy League-educated native of Montreal, Lazarus has extensive experience in Sports Law and Regulation, with long stints at NFL and the FEI. Now, she is charged with unifying a divided sport at the behest of federal government. In her most revealing and personal interview to date, she tells Nick how her upbringing and family background have informed her approach to her professional career, and how her experience has qualified her for the job at hand. On HISA, Lazarus talks of the immense challenges presented to the organisation, how she has faced down criticism from outside and from within, and how she believes the sport is already changing for the better, while conceding there is some way to travel on both anti-doping and equine fatality.

HISA, the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority, finally began its investigation of the 12 horse deaths at Churchill Downs. And it could lead to a shutdown of the race track while the findings are pending. HISA appears to be following all the recommendations made by PETA's Horse Racing Department that was sent to Churchill Downs at the beginning of May when the death toll was at two horses. PETA's Kathy Guillermo, Sr. VP and head of PETA's horse racing division, discusses what's at stake, and what HISA could do if it's serious about ending deaths in racing.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday San Diego Padres 6, Detroit Tigers 4 – 10 Innings Chicago White Sox 2, Colorado Rockies 1 Chicago Cubs 4, Pittsburgh Pirates 2 Padres 6, Tigers 4 – F/10 – Alfaro gets key 10th-inning hit as Padres beat Tigers 6-4 Jorge Alfaro capped San Diego’s three-run 10th inning with a two-run single, and the Padres beat the Detroit Tigers 6-4. Luke Voit finished with three RBIs for San Diego after he was hit by a bases-loaded pitch from All-Star Gregory Soto in the 10th. After Matthew Batten struck out swinging for the second out, Alfaro drove in Jake Cronenworth and Manny Machado with a single to right. Detroit got one back on Jeimer Candelario’s RBI double in the bottom half. But Nick Martinez retired Willi Castro on a fly ball to center, earning his fourth save. White Sox 2, Rockies 1 – Kopech stars as Chicago White Sox top Colorado Rockies 2-1 Michael Kopech pitched shutout ball into the sixth inning, and the Chicago White Sox topped the Colorado Rockies 2-1. Yasmani Grandal had three hits in Chicago’s third straight win. Yoán Moncada doubled home Adam Engel in the seventh. All-Star closer Liam Hendriks worked a rocky ninth for his 19th save, surrendering Ryan McMahon’s leadoff homer. Colorado wasted a stellar performance by Germán Márquez, who permitted one run and seven hits in six innings. Cubs 4, Pirates 2 – Contreras salutes fans, helps Cubs win 6th in row, top Bucs Willson Contreras drew a standing ovation in perhaps his last home game at Wrigley Field, then keyed an early burst as the Chicago Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2 for their season-high sixth straight win. Contreras, one of three members left from the 2016 World Series title team, tipped his cap after being cheered at the plate his first time up. He hit a soft single in a three-run first inning. Contreras, an All-Star catcher who can become a free agent after this season, has acknowledged this might be his last homestand as a member of the Cubs before the Aug. 2 trade deadline. He saluted the fans with a fist in his last at-bat in the seventh. Representatives from the Blue Jays and White Sox were in attendance. Today San Diego (Darvish 9-4) at Detroit (Skubal 7-8), 1:10 p.m. WSJM/WCSY 12:50 Chicago White Sox (Giolito 6-6) at Colorado (Senzatela 3-5), 3:10 p.m. Cubs are off WNBA – Women’s National Basketball Association Last Night Las Vegas Aces 93, Chicago Sky 83 Aces 93, Sky 83 – Plum’s 3’s lead Aces over Sky in WNBA Commissioner’s Cup. Kelsey Plum scored 12 of her 24 points in the first quarter as the Las Vegas Aces raced to an early 23-point lead, then held on for a 93-83 victory over the Chicago Sky to win the second WNBA Commissioner’s Cup championship mid-season tournament. Plum, who won the All-Star MVP in Chicago a few weeks ago, hit six of her nine 3-point attempts. Chelsea Gray had 19 points — including nine pivotal ones in the third quarter — and earned MVP of the game. A’ja Wilson had 17 points, 17 rebounds and six blocks as the Aces dominated early, then repelled several Sky runs in the second half. Jackie Young had 18 points. Candace Parker led Chicago with 20 points and Kahleah Copper and Emma Meesseman each added 18. WNBA – Russian expert at Griner’s trial discusses medical cannabis The latest Russian court hearing in the drug trial of American basketball star Brittney Griner has focused on testimony about countries that regard cannabis as having legitimate medicinal uses. Griner has acknowledged she was carrying vape canisters containing cannabis oil when she was arrested in February at a Moscow airport. But she contends she had no criminal intent and that the canisters ended up in her luggage inadvertently because of hasty packing. Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medalist who plays for the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury, faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted of transporting drugs. Griner’s trial began July 1. Tuesday’s session lasted about 90 minutes before the case was adjourned until Wednesday. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Bold, aggressive Big Ten leaves door open for more expansion Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren says the conference will be bold and aggressive as college sports goes through a period of sweeping change. He left the door open for more expansion after the league added Southern California and UCLA for the 2024 season. Warren says the future could involve more expansion. He says the Big Ten will be strategic and look for schools that add value to the conference. The Big Ten’s big moves came less than a year after Texas and Oklahoma announced plans to leave the Big 12 for the SEC. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten coaches relying heavily on revamped defenses Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has a new defensive coordinator for the second straight year. Ohio State coach Ryan Day also made a coaching change. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz and seemingly everyone else in the Big Ten need to plug defensive holes, too. Relying on revamped defenses has become a trend in the traditionally rough-and-tumble Big Ten. It often becomes the definitive line between success or failure. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten’s expansion further damages Rose Bowl’s status Former Wisconsin football coach Barry Alvarez says the Rose Bowl will always be important to the Big Ten, but making the College Football Playoff is the priority for today’s players. The future of the Rose Bowl as a showcase game, mostly featuring teams from Big Ten and Pac-12 on New Year’s Day, was already murky as the College Football Playoff creeps toward expansion. Now that the Big Ten has poached Southern California and UCLA from the Pac-12, it remains to be seen if the West Coast’s Power Five conference will still be an important part of the Rose Bowl. NCAAFB – Lakeshore grad suits up for Crimson Tide Athletes in Southwest Michigan are no strangers to continuing their athletic careers at the collegiate level, but it’s rare that they continue on at a Division 1 university, and even more rare when a local football player suits up for one of the top football teams in the nation. Lakeshore’s Logan Mooney earned one of 16 preferred walk-on roster spots for the Alabama Crimson Tide. Mooney, who just graduated from Lakeshore High School, played as a middle linebacker and quarterback for the Lancers team that went 7-4 last season. Mooney was named SMAC All-Conference as a linebacker with 73 tackles, 10 for loss, and 2 sacks. Mooney is learning a new defensive position for Nick Saban’s squad, as Mooney is moving over to the strong safety position. Alabama finished last season at 13-2 and lost to Georgia in the college football playoff championship game. The Crimson Tide are currently ranked number 2 in the preseason AP college football poll and will open the season on Saturday September 3rd at home against Utah State. Mooney’s Lakeshore Lancers open up the season on Thursday, August 25th at home against Zeeland West, which will be heard live on 97.5 Y-Country. NFL – NFL teams open camp with biggest question still unanswered Training camps opened across the NFL and the biggest offseason question remains unanswered. The Cleveland Browns still don’t know how many games they’ll be without Deshaun Watson, who is still waiting for retired judge Sue L. Robinson to issue a ruling following his disciplinary hearing that concluded nearly four weeks ago. The league and the NFL Players’ Association requested a decision by the start of training camp, according to a person familiar with the process who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the discussions are private. Robinson, who was jointly appointed by the league and the union, had no obligation to meet that deadline. Representatives are hopeful a decision comes this week. Bears’ Smith, Quinn report, unclear if they’ll practice Star linebacker Roquan Smith and defensive end Robert Quinn are on time for the Chicago Bears’ first training camp under general manager Ryan Poles and coach Matt Eberflus. Whether they’ll choose to participate when practices begin Wednesday remains to be seen. The Bears could have a big issue on their hands if two of their best defensive players decide not to practice. Smith and Quinn could opt instead to “hold in” by simply attending meetings while not participating in on-field activities. Smith wants an extension as he enters the fifth and final season of his rookie deal, while the 32-year-old Quinn’s future with a rebuilding team is unclear. Poles said he hadn’t seen either player. But he was told they had reported. NASCAR – NASCAR slams McDowell and team for illegally modified part NASCAR has levied another round of massive penalties, this time against Michael McDowell and Front Row Motorsports, for illegal modifications discovered after McDowell’s sixth-place finish at Pocono Raceway. NASCAR fined crew chief Blake Harris $100,000 and suspended him for four races. McDowell was docked 100 driver points, and Front Row docked 100 owner points. If the No. 34 team wins one of the five remaining regular-season races to qualify for the playoffs, McDowell will be docked 10 playoff points. The penalty was issued for an illegal modification of a single source supplied part. Golf – LIV in New Jersey, PGA has more top-20 players in Detroit The Saudi-funded LIV Golf series is back in action in the United States, this time on a New Jersey course owned by former President Donald Trump. The rival league has added three more players in their 40s with Paul Casey, Henrik Stenson and Charles Howell III. The PGA Tour is holding its own this week. The Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit has Patrick Cantlay at No. 4 in the world. He’s among five players from the top 20 in the world at Detroit Golf Club. The LPGA Tour goes to Scotland for the first of two weeks. Jackie Robinson Museum opens after 14 years of planning The Jackie Robinson Museum has opened in Manhattan with a gala ceremony attended by the 100-year-old widow of the barrier-breaking ballplayer and two of his children. Rachel Robinson watched the half-hour outdoor ceremony from a wheelchair in the 80-degree heat, then cut a ribbon to cap a project launched in 2008. Her 72-year-old daughter, Sharon, also watched from a wheelchair and 70-year-old son David spoke to the crowd of about 200 sitting on folding chairs arrayed on a closed-off section of the major New York thoroughfare where the museum is located. It opens to the public on Sept. 5. Men abused by Ohio State doctor ask court to revive lawsuits Attorneys for some of the men who sued Ohio State University over decades-old sexual abuse by team doctor Richard Strauss argue a federal appeals court should overturn a judge’s dismissal and let the lawsuits continue. A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments Tuesday. Ohio State’s lawyers contend the claims were years too late. They argue that the students knew enough that, legally speaking, they should have started looking into further recourse back then if the late doctor’s behavior and Ohio State’s inaction were as egregious as alleged. The plaintiffs argue the clock didn’t start until allegations came to light in 2018. Judge halts horse racing authority enforcement in La., W.Va. A federal judge says a national horse racing authority cannot enforce its rules in Louisiana and West Virginia while a lawsuit challenging the organization is in court. Western District of Louisiana Judge Terry Doughty in granting a preliminary injunction said the Horseracing Integrity & Safety Authority likely went beyond its bounds on three rules that went into place July 1. State and racing officials in those jurisdictions sued to prevent the new federal authority’s regulations from going into effect. HISA CEO Lisa Lazarus says the judge’s ruling does not question the organization’s constitutionality or validity.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday San Diego Padres 6, Detroit Tigers 4 – 10 Innings Chicago White Sox 2, Colorado Rockies 1 Chicago Cubs 4, Pittsburgh Pirates 2 Padres 6, Tigers 4 – F/10 – Alfaro gets key 10th-inning hit as Padres beat Tigers 6-4 Jorge Alfaro capped San Diego’s three-run 10th inning with a two-run single, and the Padres beat the Detroit Tigers 6-4. Luke Voit finished with three RBIs for San Diego after he was hit by a bases-loaded pitch from All-Star Gregory Soto in the 10th. After Matthew Batten struck out swinging for the second out, Alfaro drove in Jake Cronenworth and Manny Machado with a single to right. Detroit got one back on Jeimer Candelario’s RBI double in the bottom half. But Nick Martinez retired Willi Castro on a fly ball to center, earning his fourth save. White Sox 2, Rockies 1 – Kopech stars as Chicago White Sox top Colorado Rockies 2-1 Michael Kopech pitched shutout ball into the sixth inning, and the Chicago White Sox topped the Colorado Rockies 2-1. Yasmani Grandal had three hits in Chicago’s third straight win. Yoán Moncada doubled home Adam Engel in the seventh. All-Star closer Liam Hendriks worked a rocky ninth for his 19th save, surrendering Ryan McMahon’s leadoff homer. Colorado wasted a stellar performance by Germán Márquez, who permitted one run and seven hits in six innings. Cubs 4, Pirates 2 – Contreras salutes fans, helps Cubs win 6th in row, top Bucs Willson Contreras drew a standing ovation in perhaps his last home game at Wrigley Field, then keyed an early burst as the Chicago Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2 for their season-high sixth straight win. Contreras, one of three members left from the 2016 World Series title team, tipped his cap after being cheered at the plate his first time up. He hit a soft single in a three-run first inning. Contreras, an All-Star catcher who can become a free agent after this season, has acknowledged this might be his last homestand as a member of the Cubs before the Aug. 2 trade deadline. He saluted the fans with a fist in his last at-bat in the seventh. Representatives from the Blue Jays and White Sox were in attendance. Today San Diego (Darvish 9-4) at Detroit (Skubal 7-8), 1:10 p.m. WSJM/WCSY 12:50 Chicago White Sox (Giolito 6-6) at Colorado (Senzatela 3-5), 3:10 p.m. Cubs are off WNBA – Women’s National Basketball Association Last Night Las Vegas Aces 93, Chicago Sky 83 Aces 93, Sky 83 – Plum’s 3’s lead Aces over Sky in WNBA Commissioner’s Cup. Kelsey Plum scored 12 of her 24 points in the first quarter as the Las Vegas Aces raced to an early 23-point lead, then held on for a 93-83 victory over the Chicago Sky to win the second WNBA Commissioner’s Cup championship mid-season tournament. Plum, who won the All-Star MVP in Chicago a few weeks ago, hit six of her nine 3-point attempts. Chelsea Gray had 19 points — including nine pivotal ones in the third quarter — and earned MVP of the game. A’ja Wilson had 17 points, 17 rebounds and six blocks as the Aces dominated early, then repelled several Sky runs in the second half. Jackie Young had 18 points. Candace Parker led Chicago with 20 points and Kahleah Copper and Emma Meesseman each added 18. WNBA – Russian expert at Griner’s trial discusses medical cannabis The latest Russian court hearing in the drug trial of American basketball star Brittney Griner has focused on testimony about countries that regard cannabis as having legitimate medicinal uses. Griner has acknowledged she was carrying vape canisters containing cannabis oil when she was arrested in February at a Moscow airport. But she contends she had no criminal intent and that the canisters ended up in her luggage inadvertently because of hasty packing. Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medalist who plays for the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury, faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted of transporting drugs. Griner’s trial began July 1. Tuesday’s session lasted about 90 minutes before the case was adjourned until Wednesday. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Bold, aggressive Big Ten leaves door open for more expansion Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren says the conference will be bold and aggressive as college sports goes through a period of sweeping change. He left the door open for more expansion after the league added Southern California and UCLA for the 2024 season. Warren says the future could involve more expansion. He says the Big Ten will be strategic and look for schools that add value to the conference. The Big Ten’s big moves came less than a year after Texas and Oklahoma announced plans to leave the Big 12 for the SEC. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten coaches relying heavily on revamped defenses Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has a new defensive coordinator for the second straight year. Ohio State coach Ryan Day also made a coaching change. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz and seemingly everyone else in the Big Ten need to plug defensive holes, too. Relying on revamped defenses has become a trend in the traditionally rough-and-tumble Big Ten. It often becomes the definitive line between success or failure. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten’s expansion further damages Rose Bowl’s status Former Wisconsin football coach Barry Alvarez says the Rose Bowl will always be important to the Big Ten, but making the College Football Playoff is the priority for today’s players. The future of the Rose Bowl as a showcase game, mostly featuring teams from Big Ten and Pac-12 on New Year’s Day, was already murky as the College Football Playoff creeps toward expansion. Now that the Big Ten has poached Southern California and UCLA from the Pac-12, it remains to be seen if the West Coast’s Power Five conference will still be an important part of the Rose Bowl. NCAAFB – Lakeshore grad suits up for Crimson Tide Athletes in Southwest Michigan are no strangers to continuing their athletic careers at the collegiate level, but it’s rare that they continue on at a Division 1 university, and even more rare when a local football player suits up for one of the top football teams in the nation. Lakeshore’s Logan Mooney earned one of 16 preferred walk-on roster spots for the Alabama Crimson Tide. Mooney, who just graduated from Lakeshore High School, played as a middle linebacker and quarterback for the Lancers team that went 7-4 last season. Mooney was named SMAC All-Conference as a linebacker with 73 tackles, 10 for loss, and 2 sacks. Mooney is learning a new defensive position for Nick Saban’s squad, as Mooney is moving over to the strong safety position. Alabama finished last season at 13-2 and lost to Georgia in the college football playoff championship game. The Crimson Tide are currently ranked number 2 in the preseason AP college football poll and will open the season on Saturday September 3rd at home against Utah State.

The Big Ten’s big moves came less than a year after Texas and Oklahoma announced plans to leave the Big 12 for the SEC. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten coaches relying heavily on revamped defenses Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has a new defensive coordinator for the second straight year. Ohio State coach Ryan Day also made a coaching change. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz and seemingly everyone else in the Big Ten need to plug defensive holes, too. Relying on revamped defenses has become a trend in the traditionally rough-and-tumble Big Ten. It often becomes the definitive line between success or failure. NCAAFB – Big Ten – Big Ten’s expansion further damages Rose Bowl’s status Former Wisconsin football coach Barry Alvarez says the Rose Bowl will always be important to the Big Ten, but making the College Football Playoff is the priority for today’s players. The future of the Rose Bowl as a showcase game, mostly featuring teams from Big Ten and Pac-12 on New Year’s Day, was already murky as the College Football Playoff creeps toward expansion. Now that the Big Ten has poached Southern California and UCLA from the Pac-12, it remains to be seen if the West Coast’s Power Five conference will still be an important part of the Rose Bowl. NCAAFB – Lakeshore grad suits up for Crimson Tide Athletes in Southwest Michigan are no strangers to continuing their athletic careers at the collegiate level, but it’s rare that they continue on at a Division 1 university, and even more rare when a local football player suits up for one of the top football teams in the nation. Lakeshore’s Logan Mooney earned one of 16 preferred walk-on roster spots for the Alabama Crimson Tide. Mooney, who just graduated from Lakeshore High School, played as a middle linebacker and quarterback for the Lancers team that went 7-4 last season. Mooney was named SMAC All-Conference as a linebacker with 73 tackles, 10 for loss, and 2 sacks. Mooney is learning a new defensive position for Nick Saban’s squad, as Mooney is moving over to the strong safety position. Alabama finished last season at 13-2 and lost to Georgia in the college football playoff championship game. The Crimson Tide are currently ranked number 2 in the preseason AP college football poll and will open the season on Saturday September 3rd at home against Utah State. Mooney’s Lakeshore Lancers open up the season on Thursday, August 25th at home against Zeeland West, which will be heard live on 97.5 Y-Country. NFL – NFL teams open camp with biggest question still unanswered Training camps opened across the NFL and the biggest offseason question remains unanswered. The Cleveland Browns still don’t know how many games they’ll be without Deshaun Watson, who is still waiting for retired judge Sue L. Robinson to issue a ruling following his disciplinary hearing that concluded nearly four weeks ago. The league and the NFL Players’ Association requested a decision by the start of training camp, according to a person familiar with the process who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the discussions are private. Robinson, who was jointly appointed by the league and the union, had no obligation to meet that deadline. Representatives are hopeful a decision comes this week. Bears’ Smith, Quinn report, unclear if they’ll practice Star linebacker Roquan Smith and defensive end Robert Quinn are on time for the Chicago Bears’ first training camp under general manager Ryan Poles and coach Matt Eberflus. Whether they’ll choose to participate when practices begin Wednesday remains to be seen. The Bears could have a big issue on their hands if two of their best defensive players decide not to practice. Smith and Quinn could opt instead to “hold in” by simply attending meetings while not participating in on-field activities. Smith wants an extension as he enters the fifth and final season of his rookie deal, while the 32-year-old Quinn’s future with a rebuilding team is unclear. Poles said he hadn’t seen either player. But he was told they had reported. NASCAR – NASCAR slams McDowell and team for illegally modified part NASCAR has levied another round of massive penalties, this time against Michael McDowell and Front Row Motorsports, for illegal modifications discovered after McDowell’s sixth-place finish at Pocono Raceway. NASCAR fined crew chief Blake Harris $100,000 and suspended him for four races. McDowell was docked 100 driver points, and Front Row docked 100 owner points. If the No. 34 team wins one of the five remaining regular-season races to qualify for the playoffs, McDowell will be docked 10 playoff points. The penalty was issued for an illegal modification of a single source supplied part. Golf – LIV in New Jersey, PGA has more top-20 players in Detroit The Saudi-funded LIV Golf series is back in action in the United States, this time on a New Jersey course owned by former President Donald Trump. The rival league has added three more players in their 40s with Paul Casey, Henrik Stenson and Charles Howell III. The PGA Tour is holding its own this week. The Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit has Patrick Cantlay at No. 4 in the world. He’s among five players from the top 20 in the world at Detroit Golf Club. The LPGA Tour goes to Scotland for the first of two weeks. Jackie Robinson Museum opens after 14 years of planning The Jackie Robinson Museum has opened in Manhattan with a gala ceremony attended by the 100-year-old widow of the barrier-breaking ballplayer and two of his children. Rachel Robinson watched the half-hour outdoor ceremony from a wheelchair in the 80-degree heat, then cut a ribbon to cap a project launched in 2008. Her 72-year-old daughter, Sharon, also watched from a wheelchair and 70-year-old son David spoke to the crowd of about 200 sitting on folding chairs arrayed on a closed-off section of the major New York thoroughfare where the museum is located. It opens to the public on Sept. 5. Men abused by Ohio State doctor ask court to revive lawsuits Attorneys for some of the men who sued Ohio State University over decades-old sexual abuse by team doctor Richard Strauss argue a federal appeals court should overturn a judge’s dismissal and let the lawsuits continue. A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments Tuesday. Ohio State’s lawyers contend the claims were years too late. They argue that the students knew enough that, legally speaking, they should have started looking into further recourse back then if the late doctor’s behavior and Ohio State’s inaction were as egregious as alleged. The plaintiffs argue the clock didn’t start until allegations came to light in 2018. Judge halts horse racing authority enforcement in La., W.Va. A federal judge says a national horse racing authority cannot enforce its rules in Louisiana and West Virginia while a lawsuit challenging the organization is in court. Western District of Louisiana Judge Terry Doughty in granting a preliminary injunction said the Horseracing Integrity & Safety Authority likely went beyond its bounds on three rules that went into place July 1. State and racing officials in those jurisdictions sued to prevent the new federal authority’s regulations from going into effect. HISA CEO Lisa Lazarus says the judge’s ruling does not question the organization’s constitutionality or validity.
