- The reported Tom Brady BROADCASTING deal is 10 years, $375 million. No uncertain terms -- with that kind of money, if Goodell wanted to cede any power as to who wins and loses to a broadcaster, that's the kind of money which could make a broadcaster Kingmaker in retirement. Highly doubtful he would, but keep in mind that's double what Buck and Aikman were making apiece at Fox.
- Georgia police stopped and searched the Delaware state women's lacrosse team's bus. Lawsuits are probably coming. It appears there was some belief someone on the team (or the driver) was transporting illegal drugs. If you don't think you're going to see more of THIS over the near future...
- Grambling State hired a new women's volleyball coach, Chelsey Lucas, who promptly fired the entire team -- cutting every scholarship. It appears Lucas has had a negative history with the Grambling team, going back to when she coached Arkansas-Pine Bluff. She went so far as to say "I bet y'all will think twice of who you call a bitch." (... which apparently was part of a team chant the entire university uses) Legal counsel has been retained for an investigation. Will be interested to see how this goes. This might be Lucas telling Grambling State to cut the entire program part and parcel.
- Bob Lanier, an 8-time NBA All-Star, passed away Tuesday night at age 73.
- Adreian Payne, former NBA player who was killed Monday morning, was killed as part of trying to intervene in a domestic dispute. Lawrence Dority, 29, has had a history of at least domestic conflict with his girlfriend Tatiana Mesa -- so Mesa got Payne and his girlfriend (redacted from the police report) to try to intervene. Dority claims Florida's Stand Your Ground, authorities say otherwise and have charged him Murder 1. Dority faces the death penalty upon conviction. Murder 1 does not require premeditation in Florida. It only requires another major felony to be committed when the murder occurs. And if someone charged with Murder 1 is found guilty, there are only two options, Life Without Parole or Death.
The truth is not what actually happened. It's what you can ENFORCE happened. It's ALL enforcement.
