Silver prices could be approaching their final low, according to veteran trader Peter Brandt. However, he expects any subsequent recovery to be gradual rather than explosive.
The precious metal traded at $53.18 per ounce on Thursday, up 1.76% on the day. That still leaves it about 56% below its January record of $121.74.

LOS ANGLES (AP) — Quinton Byfield scored at 3:37 of overtime and the Los Angeles Kings beat the Ottawa Senators 6-5 on Thursday night after blowing a four-goal lead in the third period.
Byfield beat goalie Samuel Ersson with a snap shot from the high slot, with Drew Doughty picking up his third ******* ist of the night on the play.
Erik Haula tied it for Los Angeles on a first-period power play and Trevor Moore, Mikey Anderson, Joel Armia and Artemi Panarin scored in the second to make it 5-1. Panarin capped the run on a power play after Ottawa's Hayden Hodgson was tossed for boarding defenseman Brandt Clarke.
Clarke missed the rest of the game because of an upper-body injury.
Ottawa roared back in the third, with Shane Pinto tying it at 5 with 1:40 left and Ersson off for an extra attacker.

While the transfer window may be shut, Ajax are not quite done yet in reinforcing the squad. According to De Telegraaf, Ajax are just one of a number of sides keen on signing now former Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma. The 30-year-old is a free agent, having left Tottenham this summer. Other sides from top five leagues are interested in the former Tottenham man, so it is by no means guaranteed that Ajax will land the Malian international.
Yet Ajax have shown an ability to pull in some big named players this summer. Julian Brandt left Borussia Dortmund for Ajax during the recent transfer window and is already proving to be a good signing for the Dutch side.
Bissouma, when fit, would certainly add some quality to the Ajax midfield. Last year the Malian only managed 11 games for Tottenham. Overall, he played 111 games for Tottenham, scoring twice. Prior to that he excelled with Brighton after coming through the Lille system, having moved to France from Real Bamako as a teenager.

The FedExCup Fall series tees off at the The Cliffs at Walnut Cove next week as the PGA Tour's inaugural Biltmore Championship Asheville features plenty of big names.
The Blue Ridge Mountains will serve as a backdrop for U.S. Presidents Cup players Justin Thomas, Jacob Bridgeman and Jackson Koivun, who will be tuning up their games ahead of Medinah after getting the nod from captain Brandt Snedeker earlier in the month.
Also in the field are Billy Horschel and Lucas Glover, players No. 100 and No. 101 in the FedExCup points with less than a dozen events left to play this year. Those who sit inside the top 100 secure Tour cards for 2027, while players ranked 101st through 125th earn conditional status.
Following a couple weeks off, the Tour's action returns with plenty at stake, including a $5 million purse. Here's who else will be teeing off in Arden, North Carolina, next week.

Kevin Kisner has admitted that he would be furious with the PGA Tour if he was Brandt Snedeker over the choice of golf course for the 2026 Presidents Cup.
Being captain of the US Presidents Cup team is probably quite a thankless task given that the International side have managed to win on just one occasion since the tournament began in 1994.
While it feels important for the event that there is a close match this year, Snedeker will know what a win for the International Team would mean for his reputation.
It is unlikely to do his chances of being a Ryder Cup captain in the future many favours.
Returning to Medinah may concern some American fans, given that it was the site of one of the greatest comebacks in Ryder Cup history in 2012.

#presidents #kisner

There is a rising star to watch out for at the upcoming Presidents Cup.
Jackson Koivun will be a part of the United States team for the tournament, which runs Sept. 22-27 at Medinah Country Club in Chicago. The 21-year-old is one of three rookies, and captain Brandt Snedeker's last of his six picks, of the 12-man team that was revealed on Tuesday, Sept. 1. Koivun, who only has five PGA Tour starts, broke records in his time at college and got his first professional win this summer.
According to the ****** ociated Press, Koivun is making history as the first golfer to start a year without a PGA Tour card and play in the Presidents Cup since Jordan Spieth did so in 2013.
"I'm just happy he took a chance on me," Koivun said, per the news outlet. "I'm going to give it my all."
"You have to have a feeling. For some reason, I just had a gut feeling," Snedeker commented. "We'll see how that turns out. But I have full confidence he's ready for the challenge."

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Jackson Koivun was added to the U.S. team for the Presidents Cup on Tuesday just three months after leaving Auburn, one of two newcomers to an American team that hasn't lost in 28 years.
Koivun, who won the 3M Open in his third start as a professional and qualified for the PGA Tour postseason in just five tournaments, is the first player since Jordan Spieth in 2013 to start a year without a tour card and play in the Presidents Cup.
U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker also took Jacob Bridgeman, who won at Riviera this year. Snedeker passed over Ryan Gerard, the No. 22 player in the world who contended at the Tour Championship and finished third.
International captain Geoff Ogilvy picked a pair of Canadians in Corey Conners and Nick Taylor. He also took Ryo Hisatsune. It will be the first time since 1998 the International team has two ***** anese players, with Hideki Matsuyama already earning one of the six automatic spots.
The Presidents Cup is Sept. 24-27 at Medinah, which has been entirely renovated by Ogilvy's Australia-based golf course design company.

Brandt Snedeker wasn't afraid to think outside the box.
The U.S. Presidents Cup captain selected former college phenom Jackson Koivun, who won the PGA Tour's 3M Open in just his third start as a professional. Koivun will be joined by a trio of U.S. team stalwarts in Justin Thomas, Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay, as well as Chris Gotterup, who was narrowly on the wrong side of the cutoff for the six automatic selections. Gotterup is one of three rookies added to the team Tuesday, along with Koivun and Jacob Bridgeman.
The 16th edition of the Presidents Cup will be played Sept. 24-27 at Medinah Country Club in Chicago. Here's a closer look at the six U.S. captain's picks.

ATLANTA – Ryan Gerard has dialed in his distance control with his short irons this week at the Tour Championship and the proof is in the pudding. He shot his second straight 5-under 65 at East Lake Golf Club on Friday to share the 36-hole lead at the FedEx Cup finale with Viktor Hovland.
But his short irons aren't all that Gerard has figured out. The 27-year-old North Carolina Tarheel already reeled in his "white whale," making it to the field of 30 for the first time in his Tour career, and now he's seeking a captain's pick to play for Brandt Snedeker on Team USA at the Presidents Cup.
"It's hard not to think about it a little bit. I think very aware that a good week this week goes a long way to help my chances," he said. "Just going to go out there and play good golf, and Sneds is going to decide whatever he thinks is best for the team, and I hope that I can contribute."
In a previous conversation, he was even more candid: "I want to play in that tournament. I want to be part of the team. I want to play for my country. I want people to want me to be there."
And he very well may get the chance, as his expectations begin to catch up with his abilities. When he first was chasing a Tour card, those expectations, he admits, didn't always match with reality. "It took me a little while to figure out I didn't have it figured out and then it took me even longer to try and figure it out from there," he said. "I'd like to think I'm getting close to getting a little more consistent but I'm still learning."

For 48 minutes, and then some, the Lebanon and Pendleton Heights football teams traded blow after blow on the Tigers' home field in the season opener.
And when they needed it the most, the Arabians senior quarterback delivered with the game on the line. Brandt Gray ran in a two-point conversion at the end of the first overtime, giving visiting Pendleton Heights a thrilling 43-42 win over Lebanon.
"We bent, and we had a hard time stopping them all night," Pendleton Heights head coach Jed Richman said. "(Lebanon) did a great job. Last week we could hardly practice because of the flooding and the weather, and I know they had some struggles too, but it was a lot of perseverance and guts out of this group, and it's just the beginning. I am just really, really proud of them."
Lebanon got the ball first in overtime, and scored on its second play on a 5-yard run by quarterback Jacob Linton.
After the play there was a scrum on the goal line, and Lebanon was ******* sed a 15-yard penalty when it appeared they were lining up for a two-point conversion.

ESPN has never been hesitant to cover the never-ending circus that is the Dallas Cowboys franchise. The Worldwide Leader's proclivity to discuss the state of things in Jerry World has been covered multiple times over the years, and Charles Barkley and Inside the NBA even poked fun at it after joining the ESPN family.
It's a fact that isn't wasted inside the halls of ESPN, either.
"I don't know if you heard this about ESPN. Sometimes they say that we're a little cowboy over the top," longtime SportsCenter anchor Scott Van Pelt said to Kyle Brandt on Thursday night, who recently joined the network as part of the consolidation of ESPN and NFL Network.
"You get the memo that says you have to talk about the Cowboys," Van Pelt joked. "No one says you have to talk about the Cowboys. I root for the team that was their most hated rival in Washington, and I love to make fun of the fact that since I've worked at ESPN, which is a long-*ss time, never once have they played for an NFC Championship, let alone a ***** le. That's a fact. Yes. I think they're going to be good. I really do. I like their defense."
After joking that his take was going to end up on the popular Freezing Cold Takes X account, Brandt made quite the ***** ogy for why there's a pretty decent chance Van Pelt's take will go on to be very off-base.

In the Bundesliga's latest "Midweek Interview", Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel had a chance to talk about the upcoming season and the changes to the BVB squad. The departure of Julian Brandt, Karim Adeyemi, and Niklas Süle left plenty of ******* e and wages for Ole Book and Lars Ricken to work with.
The signing of Genk's Konstantinos Karetsas, PAOK's Giannis Konstantelias, and PSV's Joey Veerman in the build up to the season kick-off has certainly given Dortmund fans something to be excited about. Kobel knows that a step-up is required, but shares his enthusiasm:
"Today was only my first real team training. But with Karetsas, our new Greek talent, you don't need a lot of time to see that he has a lot of quality on the ball, that he's a great player and that he has a lot of potential. We have a lot of young guys with a lot of potential, and I'm really excited about what they can bring to the team and about their everyday work. They're going to improve and feel how the game is played here. Maybe it's a little faster, maybe it's a little more physical, depending on which league you're coming from. We'll see."
There are big expectations, especially on the shoulders of BVB's Greek signings. The 28-year-old notes that they can't rely on their new signings to fly from day one. He continues:
"If you play for Dortmund, you know how it is: you need to get your qualities onto the pitch every three days. But on the other hand, with a lot of young guys, it's not fair to expect them to carry the team every three days. It's going to be a team effort. The guys who have been here longer need to bring them together, prepare them for the season and help them build their confidence. The other guys, of course, need to show their talent as well."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Brandt Bronico scored in the first minute and Pep Biel had a goal contribution in a sixth straight match to spark Charlotte FC to a 3-1 victory over the Columbus Crew on Saturday night.
Bronico took passes from defender David Schnegg and Liel Abada and scored 29 seconds into the match for his first goal this season and his eighth in 204 career appearances. Schnegg's ******* ists was his fifth and Abada collected his fourth — both career highs.
Abada scored his second goal of the campaign on a penalty kick in the 9th minute for a 2-0 lead. The kick was awarded after he was fouled by Crew midfielder Dylan Chambost.
Eighteen-year-old rookie Chase Adams used his head in the 41st minute to score his first career goal and Columbus trailed 2-1 at halftime. Adams made his first start and fourth appearance. Defender Brooks Lennon picked up his first ******* ist this season and rookie Lautaro Giaccone snagged his first in his first start and second appearance.
Biel scored in the 73rd minute for a 3-1 advantage. It was the 10th goal for the midfielder — matching his career high set last season. Nineteen-year-old rookie forward Rodolfo Aloko earned his first ******* ist in his ninth appearance and rookie defender Will Cleary added his second in his fifth.

By now, you should be more than familiar with our series of regularly updating leaderboards for various Marquette Golden Eagles sports accomplishments. Keep checking back to that link in the previous sentence for our charts as the seasons continue to churn through history and MU's various teams continue to create new memories and accomplishments.
Here, we take a look at the single season goals record for men's lacrosse.
Bobby O'Grady did not wrap up 2022 with the single season record for points, but he did knock down the program record for goals in a season. Before 2022, only Ryan McNamara had ever scored 40 goals in a season, and he did that exactly on the nose in 2016, the year MU won their first ever Big East championship. At the time, McNamara had become just the second Marquette player to ever record 35 goals in a season and the first to ever clear 37. O'Grady went flying right past the workhorse of Marquette's first two NCAA tournament teams, and landed on 45 goals in MU's 15 games in 2022. That makes him the first Marquette player to ever average a hat trick for an entire season. Up til now, Tyler Melnyk's 2.57 per game in 2014 was the gold standard for the Blue and Gold.
One year later, O'Grady took a run at breaking his own record. He ultimately fell short, finishing the campaign with 43 goals, but he accomplished something else instead. O'Grady is — even now, three years later — the only player in Marquette history to score 40 or more goals in two separate seasons. In 2025, O'Grady became the first Marquette player with 30 or more goals in three different seasons, and he's the only player in MU history to tally at least 25 goals in each year of his four year career.
O'Grady hasn't been alone in redecorating this top 15 list in the past few seasons. Nolan Rappis now owns two of the seven best scoring seasons in MU history after back to back 30+ goal seasons. Carsen Brandt got into the action in the spring of 2026, putting up 27 goals and passing all but the 10 best seasons in MU history, all of which featured at least 30 goals.

WAUSAU — The Wausau West baseball team has named former Concordia University St. Paul baseball player and area native James Kramer the program's new head baseball coach.
Kramer, a Wausau West graduate, joins the Warriors staff and brings valuable college playing and coaching experience. He spent two seasons on Concordia's staff after his playing career concluded, then six seasons as part of the Minnesota Twins clubhouse staff.
Wausau West Athletic Director BJ Brandt felt his baseball experience in combination with his direct ties to the program were too sweet to forgo.

"Kramer is a great fit for our program," Brandt said. "He knows our community, our program, and what it means to wear a Warrior uniform. His college playing and coaching experience and his commitment to developing young athletes in our community will be a great benefit to Wausau West Baseball."

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen became a father with wife Hailee Steinfeld earlier in the 2026 NFL offseason, and his dream scenario for the end of this season involves his family.
Allen has been regarded as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL for the last few years, but he's just not been able to make it through the Playoffs and reach a Super Bowl to solidify his legacy.
The 2026-27 NFL season is a fresh opportunity for Allen to prove his caliber as the best QB, and he's already motivating himself with a personal dream for himself with his newborn daughter.
In an interview with NFL Network's Kyle Brandt, Allen was asked about how he wants his daughter, Harper, to remember the 2026 NFL season, prompting an emotional answer.
"Well, hopefully she's sitting there saying, 'This picture of you holding me on the field under the confetti's pretty cool.' Yeah. So that's, that's the vision that I have. You know?"

German newcomers Marc-André ter Stegen and Julian Brandt made their Ajax debut with victory on Sunday, with Brandt scoring a goal.
The Dutch team kicked off the new league season with a 2-0 win over Zwolle.
Jorthy Mokio broke the deadlock for Ajax in the 76th minute, while Brandt sealed the win in stoppage-time after coming off the bench in the 62nd minute.
The midfielder didn't have his contract with Borussia Dortmund renewed and joined Ajax earlier this month on a deal until 2029.
Ter Stegen, meanwhile, joined on a one-year loan transfer from Barcelona, where he has a contract until 2028, but lost his place in the starting line-up last season after being plagued by injuries.

#brandt #minute #contract #german

Marc-André ter Stegen completed his loan move to Ajax Amsterdam from FC Barcelona. The 34-year-old missed the World Cup due to injury as Germany instead recalled Manuel Neuer back from retirement.
Ter Stegen was part of Barcelona's last Champions League-winning squad in 2015. The former Borussia Mönchengladbach shot-stopper played 423 games for Barcelona before leaving the club for the first time at the start of the year.
His loan spell at fellow LaLiga side Girona was ended after only two games due to injury. However, Michel has seen enough to take him on loan for the second time after he joins Ajax following Girona's relegation from the Spanish top-flight.
Ter Stegen referred to his latest move as the "right option". The 44-time Germany international will be reunited with Julian Brandt at the Eredivisie club.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Panthers remain tight-lipped about the long-term contractual future of quarterback Bryce Young as he prepares to enter his fourth NFL season.
Panthers executive vice president of football operations Brandt Tilis said Monday he felt Young "ascended" to a new level last season, while adding that the 25-year-old's ceiling is still "unknown."
After being benched early in his second season, the No. 1 overall pick in 2023 responded by throwing for 3,011 yards with 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions last year while going 8-8 as a starter and leading the Panthers to an NFC South championship.
Still, Young appears ready to enter the season without a long-term contract in place.
He is under contract this season for slightly more than $12 million. The team can pick up the fifth-year option on Young at anytime, which would mean paying him a projected $25.9 million in 2027.

Borussia Dortmund on Monday announced the signing of teenage Greek forward Konstantinos Karetsas from Belgian side Genk on a five-year deal, for a reported fee of 30 million euros ($34 million) plus bonuses.
The 18-year-old, who already has three goals in 10 appearances for Greece, laid on 11 ****** ists in the Belgian top flight last season.
Dortmund were looking for more creativity after the departure of the long-serving Julian Brandt, who left on a free transfer.
"Borussia Dortmund is a special club and I am incredibly proud to now be able to wear the black and yellow jersey," Karetsas said in a statement.
Sporting director Ole Book said: "(Karetsas) will enrich our team with his creativity and intelligence. He is technically very skilled and possesses the ability to find quick solutions in tight ****** es, especially in the final third."

#dortmund #year #Monday

Borussia Dortmund have officially completed the signing of Greek international Konstantinos Karetsas from Belgian side KRC Genk. Karetsas gets set to begin the Bundesliga chapter of his career after signing a five-year contract with the Bundesliga runners-up through June 30, 2031. Kicker reports that Dortmund are paying a guaranteed transfer fee of €30m, with realistically attainable bonuses capable of increasing the package to €32m.
Genk have also reportedly secured a ten-percent share of any future transfer profit. Sport Bild places Karetsas' base salary at approximately €3.5m per year, with further performance-related bonuses built into his contract. The agreement concludes a prolonged transfer saga. Dortmund initially increased their offer to more than €30m after Genk rejected an earlier proposal.
The clubs subsequently failed to bridge the remaining financial gap, despite Karetsas having already agreed personal terms through 2031. Genk initially sought a guaranteed €35m and an overall package potentially reaching €40m.
Sporting director Nils Ole Book publicly addressed Dortmund's unsuccessful initial pursuit of Karetsas before electing to skip the club's tour of ****** an to continue working on the club's outstanding transfer business.
Karetsas is expected to fill the creative vacancy created by Julian Brandt's departure. Dortmund confirmed in March that Brandt's expiring contract would not be extended, with the long-serving German international subsequently joining Ajax. BVB also required additional attacking ****** istance following Karim Adeyemi's €22m move to Barcelona.

Aaron Rodgers is shedding new light on his personal life, revealing that his wife played a pivotal role in repairing his strained relationship with his family. Last month, the NFL quarterback posted photos with family members and received an overwhelmingly positive response from his followers, who were happy to see the decade-long feud had finally been resolved.
After years of reported estrangement from his family dating back to late 2014, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers surprised fans in July by posting photos with them on social media.
On August 1, the athlete talked about the reunion in a conversation with NFL Network's Kyle Brandt. The host said he was "genuinely moved" when he saw Rodgers' post and the effect it had on him.
Rodgers said he's been having conversations about it for years, adding that his mystery wife, Brittani, played a role in the family reconciliation. "A big part of it was getting married, and having those conversations with my wife that allowed me to kind of open up to the possibility of coming together," he answered.
He added that he prefers to keep his personal life private, but he wanted to "shut down" a narrative that has gone on too long. Rodgers said the love and support Brittani has given him urged him to reconnect with family members whom he admittedly missed.

#family

Aaron Rodgers is at training camp for what will be his final NFL season. But once the future Hall of Famer leaves football, he seems to be prepared for a new chapter of his life with his family involved.
He credits his wife, Brittani, for that.
Rodgers had been estranged from his family since at least 2016 when the rocky relationship was put into the public domain during JoJo Fletcher's season of The Bachelorette. Rodgers' brother, Jordan, competed on the show and spoke on that estrangement.
That all changed two weeks ago when Rodgers posted photos with his parents and brother, Luke, for the first time since launching an Instagram account in 2017. Jordan was not included in the post.
Speaking to Kyle Brandt this weekend on Good Morning Football, Rodgers said that his wife was a major driving force in reconciling with his family.

For many, it was probably the most surprising transfer of the summer so far: after leaving BVB, Julian Brandt signed in the Netherlands and joined Ajax Amsterdam on a free transfer.
Although other clubs were also said to be interested in him, he opted for the future-oriented project and wants to help the capital club reconnect with past successes.
Ajax finished only fifth in the last Eredivisie season and even have to go through the third qualifying round for the Conference League.
For Brandt himself, however, the decision was apparently not nearly as surprising as it was for the rest of the football world. "For you, the surprise may have been greater than for me, but the last few days were exciting. I'm happy to be here now," said the 30-year-old.
Definitely the talks with Ajax sporting director Jordi Cruyff, the son of club legend Johan Cruyff.

The final season of football for Aaron Rodgers was preceded by a reunion with his estranged family. He spoke about it during a Saturday appearance on NFL Network.
"There's been a lot of conversation about it outside of my own conversation for so many years," Rodgers told Kyle Brandt. "You know, a big part of it was getting married and having those conversations with my wife that allowed me to kind of open up to the possibility of coming together. It's been a couple-year process now, the conversations with them, but, you know, I've been very, very closed off about that part of my life, and I want to keep it that way. But there's been a narrative that's gone on for too long, that I wanted to kind of shut down.
"And it's been really beautiful to reconnect with them. All of them. And I got to spend a week, a long weekend recently. Those pictures are from in Nashville. My parents, my brother, and his sweet wife, and their incredible two kids. I got to be an uncle. It's just really — it's really special. So a lot of my life has been full circle I think the last year. And that was part of it. I knew it was part of it. And I'm happy to be reunited, and that part of my life is a really beautiful addition, and I've got to give my wife a lot of credit for — not that she was pushing me, because she never was, but just the way that she loves and supports me, having her by my side during this process has been really special. And I missed those relationships. And there was reasons for it that don't need to be talked about, but I'm thankful that that's come all the way back around."
Although Rodgers said he reconnected with "all of them," he mentioned only one brother. It's unclear whether Aaron and his brother, Jordan, have reconnected.
It was Jordan who brought the family issues to light during a 2016 stint on The Bachelorette. Two years later, Jordan chided Aaron for his donation to wildfire-relief efforts after (per Jordan) Aaron didn't call their parents to check on them during the fires.
