Day 509

• Already getting a bit dicey at training camp.  Carolina Panthers actually FIRED someone yesterday.  A hit which would've been illegal in a game stretchered off Keith Kirkwood.  And, for that, JT Ibe was CANNED.  Classic "hospital pass" across the middle, and Ibe did what comes naturally to defenders -- tried to hurt the guy.
• A late hit sparked a brawl with the entire New York Giants team which ended first-pads practice with a foul tirade by the coach...  
• ... which was probably precipitated because starting quarterback Daniel Jones was on the bottom of the ensuing pile.
• The Indianapolis Colts have lost Carson Wentz and an offensive lineman to the same foot injury -- 5-12 weeks, which could be one week of the regular season or EIGHT...
• The beginning of the end of both the PGA and European Tours, with an advent and nod toward a world Tour:  The PGA and European Tours today announced joint co-branded events, far more than just the World Golf Championships and the majors...
• A bombshell sexual-harassment investigation on New York Governor Cuomo has confirmed everything -- Biden is even calling for him to resign.
• And now formal talks for at least partnership between the Pac-12 and the remaining Big Twelve schools...  What, the Pac-20 or so??   
• Boeheim's Army, a team of Syracuse alum, has won the $1,000,000 winner-takes-all Basketball Tournament.
• Tonight is the first game with fans in Dodgers Stadium between the Astros and Dodgers.  Within four innings, the game has been stopped at least twice for inflatable garbage cans on the field.
