Alberto Puig: “Our idea is to have someone who represents or takes care of the riders – and we were thinking about Jeremy McWilliams. He can help us a lot to develop not just this team, but the future racing, and scouting of kids in England. The racing tradition is there, you just have to go and find it. If a country has been strong at something before, it’s hard to believe it’s over for them. What makes this sport important is the racing itself. If we have good riders, we’ll have the sport we have.

Josh Norman Plans Beer-Themed Celebration That NFL Probably Won’t Like
Josh Norman is putting away his bow and arrow in favor of some suds. The Redskins cornerback, who was penalized and fined for pretending to shoot a bow and arrow in Washington’s Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns, revealed Thursday that he’s planning to unveil a new beer-themed celebration this Sunday against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field. “Since they sell beer on TV while kids are watching it, I’m thinking I might open a keg on the field, and I’m going to drink it on the field,” Norman told USA TODAY Sports. “And I don’t see that being on the rule book.” Norman is talking about a pretend keg, of course,
Curt Schilling Plans To Challenge Elizabeth Warren For 2018 Senate Bid

Al-Farouq Aminu’s Unexpected Performance Foils Celtics’ Well-Laid Plans
Brad Stevens had a blueprint for success Thursday night, and the Boston Celtics all but executed it to perfection. With defensive maven Jae Crowder back in his lineup for the first time since March 11, Stevens tasked Crowder and Co. with shutting down the Portland Trail Blazers’ dynamic duo of Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum and forcing their teammates to beat Boston. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened. The Celtics held both Lillard (14 points on 3 of 16 shooting) and McCollum (17 points on 8 of 19 shooting) to relative off-nights, but unheralded Blazers swingman Al-Farouq Aminu poured in a career-high 28 points to lift Portlan...
