Injured Greek Soccer Player Dropped And Headbutted By Clumsy Medic

Unlike in football, baseball or other field sports, in which players are typically taken off the field on carts, soccer still employs the use of World War I era hand stretchers. As the carriers were carrying Koutris off the field, who appear to possibly be fans of AE Larissa, one of them slipped, causing the stretcher to drop to the ground. perhaps if the Greek economy wasn’t in such a state of dissaray, the league could afford to hire staff to — ya know — take care of the players....

‘Pogba being judged on his haircuts!’ The issue arose in the first couple of minutes of the second half, with Pogba quick to signal that he couldn’t continue after receiving a short bout of treatment near the halfway line. He was then replaced in the midfield by Marouane Fellaini. As he left the pitch, Pogba clutched his right hamstring.

Injury Report Calvin Johnson Expected To Play

- Calvin Johnson (ankle) is listed as questionable, but Lions beat writer Dave Birkett said that the “expectation” is that Johnson will play. Unfortunately, fantasy owners don’t know if that means he’ll be on and off the field all game like last week. If Johnson is active, he should be started in fantasy leagues. His presence is a positive for Golden Tate (probable, hamstring), who remains a solid WR3. Lions’ RB Joique Bell (concussion) is out, which should give Reggie Bush more opportunities to make plays....

Injury Report Odds Stacked Against Decker

- Jets’ coach Rex Ryan was optimistic about Eric Decker’s chances of playing against the Lions this week, saying it “feels like [Decker] will play.” Decker wasn’t quite as optimistic when he said he’s “planning” on playing but that he “can’t promise anything.” With the Lions actually holding down WRs this year (second-fewest fantasy points allowed), Decker owners should look elsewhere for a starter this week. Lions receiver Calvin Johnson got in a limited practice session on Friday, but he’s still listed as “questionable” because of his sore ankle....

Int L Leaders Express Grave Concern After China S Communist Party Gets Landslide Victory

The changes to Hong Kong’s election laws only permitted pro-Beijing “patriots” to run for office in the city. The number of lawmakers elected directly by voters was also reduced from 35 to 20, despite the number of seats in the legislature being increased from 70 to 90. Additionally, potential election candidates were required to go through a vetting process by a pro-Beijing committee before they could be nominated, and most lawmakers who weren’t directly elected by the city’s voters were appointed by mostly pro-Beijing bodies....

Internet Backs Man Refusing To Help Elderly Neighbor Who Threatened His Dog

Loneliness represents a very real concern for many in the U.S. In a survey conducted in February by the Harvard Graduate School of Education, 36 percent of adult respondents reported experiencing serious loneliness—feeling lonely “frequently” or “almost all the time or all the time” in the four weeks prior to the survey. Sometimes even the smallest act of kindness can be enough to break that cycle though. In a new post shared to Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole” subreddit, the man, aged 27, explained how for several years now, he has helped his neighbor, who is in his 80s, by snow-blowing his driveway....
