Holiday didn’t come cheap. The Bucks gave up Eric Bledsoe, George Hill, multiple first-round picks and multiple pick swaps in order to add the veteran guard to a franchise with championship aspirations. Holiday excelled during the regular season, averaging 17.7 points, 6.1 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game while posting new career highs in field goal percentage (50.3) and 3-point percentage (39.2).

She then reached over and opened the dryer door. When she did, the small dog can be seen flopping over backwards and sideways. The dog hopped out of the dryer on its own, and looked wobbly as it ran away, cowering from the girl and keeping its distance. The dog otherwise did not appear to be injured. This Twitter user captured the video and ran it in his feed, calling the girl a “sicko,” and told the internet to “do your thing....

There could never be enough apologies. Miriam was the only child of Lanfranco Schillaci, 35, a math teacher, and his wife, Maria, 33, a literature teacher. In April last year the family brought the little girl to a hospital near their home outside Milan. Examining a large hematoma on her buttocks, one doctor suspected sexual abuse and notified authorities. A court barred the parents from the hospital and, following a tip from a doctor, the press took the case public....

It’s an admission that has drawn sympathy online, especially after the woman drilled down on the finer details of what makes their presence so unbearable for her. According to psychologist and academic Dr. Terri Apter, conflict can often arise between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law due to what she describes as “an expectation that each is criticizing or undermining the other.” “This mutual unease may have less to do with actual attitudes and far more to do with persistent female norms that few of us manage to shake off completely,” she told The Telegraph....

Since leaving Trump’s employ, Res has criticized Trump. In 2016, Res said she was supporting Democrat Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. In the book Tower of Lies: What My 18 Years of Working With Donald Trump Reveals About Him, Res describes incidents in which Trump exhibited racist behavior. An advance copy of the book was given to the Los Angeles Times for review. In one instance, Res alleges that Trump became upset after seeing a Black person working on one of his construction sites....

The 19-year-old visited England at the start of December to find an apartment in Manchester and watch City’s Premier League game with Chelsea. Ryan Giggs is… The Unwanted One He then returned to Brazil for a month-long holiday, but Pep Guardiola does not expect the forward to take too long to get up to speed and start playing a part for City. The boy hilariously nicknamed Tetinha - ‘small tits’ - as a child due to his diminutive stature has shown a keen eye for goal over the last few months, one of the reasons he appeared on the radar of City’s South American scouts....

Just before the new year, Reade sat with NEWSWEEK for an exclusive four-hour interview, the first time any of the players has spoken in depth about the hellish months since the party that March night. Even now he gets emotional thinking about what his parents have gone through. Remembering that first call to his mother, he says, “It was like the life was sucked out of her.” Before he hung up, he made her promise not to watch his arrest on TV....

Just six races remain until the Chase for the Sprint Cup field is set. A refresher course: The Chase field will consist of 16 drivers. The regular-season champ gets an automatic bid. The next 15 spots go to top-30 drivers based on number of wins with ties broken by points. So far, 11 drivers have won this year. That means that unless winless drivers win each of the next six races, some spots will be available by points....

Here is a coach who didn’t make it three years at Florida, despite coaching one of the SEC’s premier programs to a 22-12 record and two appearances in the conference title game (the first coach in SEC history to do so in his first two years). Here is a coach who consistently brought in top recruits and who was working on a top-10 class for 2018. All of that apparently wasn’t enough for Florida to keep McElwain on....

A criminal is exactly what Budanov would normally be. Not only is he on trial for murder, he’s actually confessed to it–except he committed the deed while fighting on Moscow’s side in the Chechen war. A little more than a year ago, Budanov has admitted, he detained and killed an 18-year-old Chechen woman named Elza Kungayeva. The prosecution says she was a non-combatant–an assertion that, if true, would give Budanov, an Army colonel, the dubious distinction of becoming the highest-ranking Russian military officer in recent memory to be officially accused of killing a civilian....

The two houses of baseball met last week in New York and set what appears to be an irrevocable course toward baseball’s eighth work stoppage in just 22 seasons. The players rejected the owners’ proposal to combine revenue-sharing with a salary cap, an artificial lid similar to ones in the Nation-al Basketball Association and the National Football League. The owners in turn bounced the counterproposal, which would liberalize today’s already lucrative salary structure....

Rodrigo Inostroza started taking the path behind his home to the grocery store not long after moving in and says he was amazed at how beautifully it was transformed as the seasons changed. He told Newsweek: “I am a videographer and social media professional, so of course, I thought ‘Huh… transition quickly between seasons would be awesome.’” Going out around three or four times a month to record footage of the path between November 2020 and November 2021, Inostroza edited it seamlessly into one video and posted it on his YouTube channel....

At the Times of India Sports Awards (TOISA) ceremony, held in Mumbai on Monday, 20th March, the 26 year-old Mohum Bahan and India national team forward was adjudged the Footballer of the Year, beating competition from compatriot and close rival Sunil Chhetri.

The 54-year-old coach, under whose tutelage the Blue Tigers have risen to 130th in the FIFA rankings, will train the side scheduled to participate in the U17 World Cup until the All Indian Football Federation (AIFF) arrive on a consensus as to who will replace Nicolai Adam. Man Utd reach defensive milestone for first time since Sir Alex era Adam departed the position of the U17 coach earlier this month on account of unmitigable differences between the players and himself....

The 32-year-old was signed as an injury replacement for Miguel Garcia by NorthEast United in season two. In the nine appearances he made for the Highlanders, the Cameroonian even got on the scoresheet once. The former Middlesbrough defender also featured as a defensive midfielder for Cesar Farias’ outfit. He has had spells in Greece, Portugal, Russia and has a lot of Premier League experience up his sleeve. The former youth product of Espanyol has played for a total of six English clubs, namely Burnley, Reading, Bristol City, Middlesborough, Charlton and Port Vale....

Holcomb’s veto of House Bill 1123 on April 9, which allows for legislative leaders to call the General Assembly into an “emergency session” if the governor declares a state of emergency, was overridden by Indiana’s majority Republican Legislature on April 15 when it became law, according to the Associated Press. “This controversy must be resolved as soon as possible or the consequences could be severe, including disruption to Indiana and the proper functioning of state government—something that concerns every Hoosier,” the lawsuit stated....

Here was the scenario: Radford and Indiana are facing off in the opening round of the Nashville Regional. Radford had runners on first and third with no outs in the bottom of the first inning.

Before the first pitch on Thursday night, the Indians presented “The Captain” with a gift fitting of the city which plays home to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Perhaps Jeter can spend his first season of retirment playing in a garage band alongside former catcher and noted musician Mike Piazza. That would be fun.
