Miller was considered a Heisman Trophy front-runner entering the 2013 season, but a minor knee injury sidelined him long enough to take him out of contention. MORE: Hundley returns | Freak athletes | Bowl matchups | Icons Still, he threw for a career-high 2,094 yards and 24 TDs for the Buckeyes with seven interceptions while completing a career-best 63.5 percent of his passes.

Dainius Zubrus' skate wasn't sharp enough to pierce any organs. It did do this, though. Schenn should hang out with Taylor Hall, Mikhail Grabovski and all the other NHL players who have had near-disasters with skate blades. Maybe there's a club.

The figures show an 83 percent increase in comparison to the same period in 2018, representing the highest number of blazes since the agency began collecting such data in 2013, Reuters reported. According to the data, the most forest fires this year, as of August 2, occurred in the state of Mato Grosso where a total of 8,799 blazes were reported—an increase of 39 percent from 2018, Euronews reported.

Costa Rica are eliminated from the tournament as a result of their second defeat on the bounce. They displayed resilience at the back, but were broken down in the end by Brazil’s quality in the final third. Relief for Brazil as late goals from Philippe Coutinho and Neymar secure their first win of the 2018 World Cup, keeping them on course for the knockout stages. Costa Rica put forward a stubborn defence for the majority of the match and it seemed when Neymar had a penalty decision overturned by VAR that it was not going to be Brazil’s day....

A major meltdown is the ultimate nightmare scenario, of course. Yet the more imminent threat from the burgeoning scandal may be economic: should new inspections determine that a significant number of Japan’s 53 nuclear reactors are unsafe, repairs could take them off-line for months or even years. That would deprive the world’s second-largest economy of a major energy source; Japan derives about a third of its power from nukes. A war in Iraq would exacerbate the problem, raising already high oil prices....

Cleveland will build around No. 1 draft pick Myles Garrett on defense, and the offense added a new quarterback in DeShone Kizer to the mix. Second-year coach Hue Jackson, general manager Sashi Brown and chief strategy office Paul DePodesta have a vision, and it will be interesting to see how that looks this season. Here’s a breakdown of the new-look Browns. MORE: Browns finally worth watching Quarterback: Who wins the job?...

Sagansky’s feat is already drawing salutes, even from such seasoned pros as David Gerber, head of MGM/UA’s TV-production unit. “Jeff is the last of a breed,” says Gerber. “Fred Silverman, Brandon Tartikoff and Jeff Sagansky are the guys with the golden guts. They didn’t come from a womb. They came from a television set.” Whew - that’s some company. For a less hyperbolic fix on Sagansky, it helps to dial back a bit....

Noncyclic pain stays in one place and does not come and go. Its causes include infection, large pendulous (drooping or sagging) breasts, pregnancy, and more. This article discusses the difference in the symptoms for each type of breast pain, causes, diagnostic tests, treatment, and when to see your healthcare provider. Symptoms of Breast Pain Mastalgia (breast pain) is a common complaint and affects up to 70%–80% of women. Healthcare providers categorize breast pain into the following two groups....

The three-year star at Iowa State offers an enticing blend of size, speed and power and has no shortage of highlights that show he can put it all together. But as NFL offenses opt to spread defenses out further and deeper with speedy, big-play receivers, the draft capital a running back — even one as talented as Hall — can garner has decreased.

Gaughan’s mad dash became a viral sensation in the hours since it aired on NBC’s broadcast. MORE: Starting lineup, Kansas Cup race For the record, Gaughan finished 31st at Kansas and is now seventh in the Xfinity Chase standings, 29 behind the leader and 17 behind Justin Allgaier, who holds the fourth and final transfer spot. There are two more Xfinity races before the field is halved to four....

In fact, Miko Grimes reportedly scared off several teams that otherwise might have signed the cornerback. Her outbursts, like the one on Twitter against Ryan Tannehill, don’t reflect well on Brent or the team on which he plays. MORE: NFL players’ wives, girlfriends | Free agency winners, losers One team apparently willing to put up with Miko’s antics is the Buccaneers, who signed Grimes to a two-year, $16.5 million contract (per ESPN) Friday....

The 14-second clip of Taylor shows her in a room with at least three others, playfully sticking her tongue out at the camera as she dances. Brooke Ariel, who posted the video on Twitter, noted that it was probably the first time many people would have seen Taylor in motion. “This might be the first time you actually saw Breonna Taylor on video,” Ariel wrote in the tweet. “This is how I want to remember Her....

Favre, who will have his No. 4 officially retired Thursday night at halftime of the Bears-Packers game at Lambeau Field, spent 16 of his 20 NFL seasons with the Packers and retired as the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards, touchdowns and wins, among several other records. He also set the NFL record with 321 consecutive games played, a feat widely regarded as unbreakable. MORE: NFL Week 12 Power Rankings | Ken Stabler nominated as Seniors Committee candidate...

The Yankees, citing research from the Elias Sports Bureau, said they became the first team to reach the milestone. The total starts in 1903, the first year the franchise started play in New York. Mickey Mantle hit No. 5,000 on Aug. 8, 1954, at Detroit against Billy Hoeft, and Claudell Washington hit No. 10,000 on April 20, 1988, at Minnesota off Jeff Reardon. Brian McCann’s first-inning home run tied the score, and Gardner’s put New York ahead 2-1....

While Dallas romped to victory over Tampa Bay and led 24-0 before the Bucs got on the board, Maher endured one of the worst kicking performances in NFL history. He set a league record by missing his first four extra-point attempts of the evening. Maher’s first two kicks sailed wide to the right before his third shank went to the left. His fourth attempt very nearly sneaked inside the right side of the goalpost, but it glanced off the top of it and was no good....

Peralta threw 13 strikeouts and allowed just one hit in 5 2/3 innings. The rookie had a no-hitter going through 5 1/3 innings and was pulled after recording his 13th strikeout and 98th pitch of the night. That performance broke the Brewers’ record for strikeouts by a rookie pitcher but also etched his name into MLB history. MORE: MLB Power Rankings — Where do Brewers sit?

But the Milwaukee Brewers built one of the major leagues’ best bullpens by disregarding specific roles. “The best way to describe our bullpen is to be ready each and every day, no matter what — no limits,” said right-hander Jeremy Jeffress, an All-Star in his third stint with the Brewers. “We pitch anytime, anywhere, anybody. It doesn’t matter whose name is being called. We’re just willing to take the ball and get our job done....

That vision was before Black Lives Matter and definitely before COVID, but was launched months after the Brexit vote, where it set out the desire to be both at the center of London and at the center of the world, bringing universities together, whether that be in France, the U.S. or China. Before his time as the head of King’s, he was President and Vice-Chancellor at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, director of neurology at St Vincent’s Hospital and professor of clinical neurology at the University of Melbourne, founding director of the Melbourne Neuromuscular Research Unit and the Centre for Neuroscience and Professor of Experimental Neurology at the University of Melbourne in 2001....

The lawsuit, which has since been amended by Flores’ attorney, added the two former coaches on Thursday. The lawsuit also adds the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans as two teams which the lawsuit alleges engaged in racial discrimination against minority coaches. Wilks, a long-time NFL coordinator who was the Cardinals head coach in 2018, joined the lawsuit, with lawyers citing Wilks’ standing with the Cardinals as a “bridge coach” who was given “any meaningful chance to succeed....
