Hayden Gillim won his second King of the Baggers Championship after splitting wins with Bradley Smith at Circuit of the Americas. Gillim also won the **** le in 2023 riding for the Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson team, and after the team switched to Indian this season, he became the first rider to win the **** le for two different manufacturers.
Gillim arrived at COTA with a 23-point lead over teammate Troy Herfoss and a 54-point gap over Harley-Davidson x Dynojet rider Smith. Gillim took Race 1 ahead of Smith and teammate Rocco Landers, while Herfoss retired after a crash on his third lap.
That result set up Race 2 on Sunday, where all Gillim needed to do was manage the gap rather than win outright. Gillim passed Herfoss on the opening lap but ceded the lead to Smith on the fourth lap. Smith held on to win by 4.717 seconds while Gillim held off SDI Racing's Tyler O'Hara to finish second. Herfoss finished off the podium in fifth, behind Harley-Davidson's James Rispoli.
With only a maximum of 50 points remaining across the two-race New Jersey finale, Gillim's 54-point cushion over Smith was enough to secure his second King of the Baggers crown.
"We didn't get the bikes until late and got one test in before the season started, and we came out winning," said Gillim, who won 8 of 12 races heading into New Jersey. "To be able to finish it early is pretty special, especially against the guys that we're racing against."

Savannah Guthrie recalled Lady Gaga predicting she was having a girl during her first pregnancy in 2014
Guthrie shared the story after news broke that Lady Gaga welcomed her first child with fiancé Michael Polansky
Gaga has expressed her desire to become a mom for years, calling it her "next starring role" in 2025
Savannah Guthrie shared a sweet memory of Lady Gaga after the news broke of the Mother Monster becoming a mother herself.
On Monday, Sept. 14, the Today show covered the story that Gaga, 41, has become a first-time mom with her fiancé, Michael Polansky. Guthrie, who is mom to daughter Vale, 12, and son Charley, 9, with her husband, Mike Feldman, noted Gaga's unique comments during her first pregnancy.

As Solheim Cup rivalries were renewed for the 20th time, Carlota Ciganda once again stole the show after Europe's top pairing of Charley Hull and Lottie Woad failed to ignite against the United States at Bernardus Golf Club in the Netherlands
The 36-year-old Spaniard, who is the oldest player on show this weekend, let out a roar of pure emotion after holing a 15-foot putt to earn Europe what had seemed an unlikely half point in the final fourball match of the day to ensure honours are even at 4-4 heading into Saturday.
Ciganda's celebration evoked memories of the nerve-shredding finale at Finca Cortesin in 2023, when her putt allowed Europe to retain the trophy with a 14-14 tie.
And once again Nelly Korda was on the receiving end.
The world number one, and her playing partner Lauren Coughlin, both left match-winning putts short to allow Ciganda, who had crucially won the 16th hole with an eagle, to deliver a stunning reprieve for Anna Nordqvist's team.

Mike Tomlin will be on NBC's "Sunday Night Football" broadcasts this season. It is the first time this century that Tomlin won't spend football season with an NFL team. Tomlin chose to walk away from the Pittsburgh Steelers at the end of last season after 19 years as the team's head coach.
Tomlin appears to be having fun so far, but the real question is whether or not he'll stick with media long term or if he's just taking a break before taking another job. There was no shortage of suitors when he stepped down in Pittsburgh and at 54-years old with a Super Bowl and zero losing seasons on his resume, he remains an attractive candidate for any vacancy.
Cris Collinsworth, Tomlin's new co-worker at NBC, recently asked him if there was a chance he would return to coaching at some point. Tomlin sounded like someone who still wanted to coach, but he also isn't in a hurry.

"It's certainly not a 32 team league for me," said Tomlin. "But I've also learned to never say never. I love to coach. I love all the challenges of the profession. I love the being part of growth and development of young people individually. I love the measurement of the seven day cycle, but also have enjoyed the last six months. Life on this other side that I had no idea about."

Worthing have signed Southend United forward Charley Kendall for an undisclosed fee.
The 25-year-old has been at the Shrimpers since late 2024 where he played 55 National League games, scoring 13 goals.
He played a key role in Southend's FA Trophy triumph last season, scoring twice in the semi-final before playing in the final where they beat Wealdstone in a penalty shootout.
"Charley is a real threat with his pace in behind and has that all-important National League experience which we want to keep adding to the group," manager Adam Hinshelwood told the club website.
"His goal record speaks for itself and everyone is excited to have him through the door and see him represent our club."

It's hard to imagine a better birthday call than the one Auston Kim of St. Augustine got from U.S. Solheim Cup captain Angela Stanford on Aug. 16.
Kim was whiling away a Sunday afternoon during a break from her LPGA schedule playing frisbee in the backyard of her St. Johns Golf and Country Club home with her sister, August. Kim then got the call from Stanford, who was at the site of the LPGA event in Portland, Ore., to let her know that she had qualified on points for the U.S. team that will play Europe Sept. 11-13 at the Bernardus Golf Club in Cromvoirt, Netherlands.
"It was a good birthday present," Kim said on Sept. 1 after a practice session at her home course. "Completely unexpected. If I had played a tournament that week, I would have been on-site, and it would have been a lot different. I wasn't in a golf mode."

She will be in the Netherlands, where Kim will join U.S. teammates such as Nelly Korda, Jennifer Kupcho, Rose Zhang and Allisen Corpuz against Europe, led by Charley Hull, Lottie Woad, Celine Boutier and Leona Maguire.

Klay Thompson's father has warned the critics of his son ahead of the new season.
Following a disappointing two-year stint with the Dallas Mavericks, Klay Thompson agreed to a contract buyout with the Western Conference side.
At 36, Thompson is undoubtedly out of his prime, but it didn't take long for the 4x NBA champion to find his next destination.
Thompson quickly agreed to a two-year deal with the Miami Heat as he is all set to become teammates with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo.

From her own wedding to a bridal line, Jordyn Woods is celebrating the woman behind the bride
Jordyn Woods is turning her newlywed chapter into a fashion statement with the launch of WOODS Bridal, her first-ever bridal collection. Released just two weeks after her wedding to New York Knicks forward Karl-Anthony Towns, the collection blends traditional bridal aesthetics with her message of self-love and independence.
The entrepreneur and fashion designer's initial launch features an eight-piece collection with four shoes and four handbags. According to Essence, the collection includes updated versions of Woods' signature pieces as well as new designs. Among the handbags are the Tux Clutch Mini White Ostrich, croc-embossed variations, a white Large Tote and the new Box Purse. The footwear lineup includes white versions of the Stunt Sandal and Rev Boot, alongside the new Sandal Wedge and Icon Heel.

The campaign also carries a personal connection. Woods is photographed with a Harley-Davidson motorcycle decorated with tin cans, a tribute to her late father. Other images incorporate pieces from the collection into moments from her actual wedding. But Woods says the collection is about more than wedding fashion.

Even after 25-plus years in the fantasy industry and much success in high-stakes leagues, there inevitably comes a day early in each season in which I wish I had taken the time to write out the bull and bear case for each player likely to get drafted. Such a thing takes a lot of time, which is part of the reason why it is so hard to find such a thing on any fantasy website.
With my Big Board rankings being released as we speak, now feels like the perfect time to conduct such an exercise. Along with several members of my talented writing team here at The Huddle (Steve Hungarter, Harley Schultz, HC Green, Kevin Tompkins), we present the first edition of what I hope becomes a yearly tradition: detailed **** ysis as to why a player will live up to his Big Board ranking and why he may not.
Note: Rankings are based on the release of the 8/21 version of the Big Board. Because of the amount of time it will take to update each of the five articles in this series each time there is a change in the rankings, there are no plans to update the rankings next to each player in this story. If new players are added to the Big Board over the final few weeks of the preseason, I will add a sixth installment at the end of the series.
The links to all five stories (and the 150 players we discuss) are below:

The Harley-Davidson motorcycle Kyle Whittingham rides is about as classic an American two-wheeler as it gets.
The approach Whittingham is taking to peel back the curtain on his new football program, storied-but-scandal-ridden Michigan, is anything but traditional.

If you had the chance to ask your favorite celebrity any question, what would you ask? At Allrecipes, when we get that opportunity, it should come as no surprise that we're always wondering what's on their plates. We love to learn what actors, television hosts, and other professionally busy people eat on their days on, days off, and all other days in between.
Savannah Guthrie is no exception. The "Today" co-anchor, The New York Times best-selling author, and self-proclaimed "recovering attorney" is one busy woman. Her days start early—and we mean really early—and when she's not on duty at "Today", she's busy keeping up with her daughter, Vale (12), and son, Charley (9). So what's on her menu?
When we sat down with Guthrie for the Fall 2023 issue of Allrecipes magazine, she told us all about how she tends to mix it up at dinnertime. Living in New York City, she frequents Mediterranean, Thai, and Mexican restaurants in her neighborhood, but also still loves a good burger, fries, and milkshake ("I love a milkshake more than is reasonable for someone my age to love."). But when it comes to lunch, she keeps it simple.
"Embarrassingly, I eat [the same thing] for lunch every single day of the week." And she wasn't exaggerating—Guthrie even had it in her purse when we chatted. What's more—it's not a gourmet offering or one from a niche NYC deli. It's from a fast food chain we all frequent. So which sandwich secured the spot? None other than a breakfast offering from Starbucks.
Guthrie turns to the Bacon-Style Turkey, Cheddar & Egg White Sandwich from Starbucks every day at lunchtime. On first glance, it seems like the ideal grab-and-go lunch alongside a coffee in the morning. Since we at Allrecipes wholeheartedly believe anything good enough for Guthrie is good enough for us, I decided to give it a try.

Guernsey FC maintained their unbeaten start to their Southern Combination Premier Division season as they twice came from a goal down to draw 2-2 at Crawley Down Gatwick.
The hosts took a seventh-minute lead when Will Harley curled past Seb Sheppard after some neat passing following a counter-attack down the right.
James Laws went close to doubling the lead 25 minutes later before Will Fazakerley and Callum Le Lacheur had chances for the Green Lions as they went into the break a goal down.
But the visitors levelled six minutes after the break as Sam Murray nodded on Charlton Gauvain's cross from the right and Jamie Dodd was able to bundle the ball home at the far post.
The hosts were back in front just four minutes later as Archie Drillot's weak back-pass was picked up by Harley and substitute Callum Kilkenny finished well moments after coming on.

Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster Charley Steiner, who has been in the business for 59 years, called Saturday night's broadcast of the Dodgers-Milwaukee Brewers game "the most meaningful game of my career."
It was the first time that Steiner called all nine innings of a game since Oct. 11, 2023 when the Diamondbacks were the last team to beat the Dodgers in a postseason.
Steiner, who has been battling cancer, began the season broadcasting just three innings in the first game of a home series this season, gradually building up to six innings, and now his first complete game.
"It means the world to me," Steiner told USA TODAY Sports.
Steiner was diagnosed with multiple myeloma blood cancer in January 2024 and was unable to work any games that season, but returned to the booth in 2025.

It may have taken decades, but Heather Locklear and Lorenzo Lamas have finally fallen into one another's arms. Sadly, love doesn't pay the bills, which is something Lamas, who rose to fame starring in nine seasons of "Falcon Crest" and five seasons of "Renegade," needed to learn the hard way. Lamas found himself in a financial pickle when the roles started to dry up, and with added divorce costs and Lamas' many ex-wives who came calling for their alimony, he was out $6,123 a month. On top of that was the cost of raising six children, and it didn't help that the actor had expensive habits. When he filed for bankruptcy in 2004, Lamas was over $600,000 in debt, with items like his Harley-Davidson, Hummer, and private plane hanging over his head.
Lamas filed for bankruptcy a second time in 2014. Where the actor had over $400,000 in ***** ets in '04, in the '14 listing, he was down to just $9,100, with only $430 in the bank. The good news was that his debt had been cut in half. The bad news was that even half the debt was still over $300,000. The "Bold and the Beautiful" star opened up on "Oprah: Where Are They Now" (via HuffPost), saying, "My greatest regret would be that I took my success for granted, because it was given to me at such a young age. I thought my acting career was going to just last forever ..." But the star wasn't going to sit around and wait to see what would happen. He took responsibility and found a way out of the hole he had dug.

Lorenzo Lamas/X
The son of Hollywood legends Arlene Dahl and Fernando Lamas, Lorenzo Lamas was in his 40s when he had to do something he had never done before: get a regular job. Being a man with many talents, Lamas landed a pretty cool job, becoming a helicopter pilot touring people around Los Angeles and New York, but the change in profession wasn't easy for him, explaining, "It was a very difficult lesson to learn at 40 years old." But it was a lesson that taught the star what he needed to learn, as he went on to opine, "Put some money away and not spend it so ... frivolously on boats and airplanes and houses behind gates, and all that stuff that really doesn't matter."

LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England — Europe captain Anna Nordqvist finalized her Solheim Cup team Monday by adding veteran Leona Maguire and three rookies as her picks for the Sept. 11-13 matches in The Netherlands.
Charley Hull of England easily earned one of the two automatic spots from the Ladies European Tour points list. The other went to Esther Henseleit of Germany, who surged to No. 2 in the final two events.
Henseleit finished fourth in the Women's Scottish Open and then lost in a playoff at the Women's British Open (points are double in a major) to narrowly beat Chiara Tamburlini of Switzerland for the second spot.
Henseleit's 40-foot birdie putt to force a playoff with AIG Women's Open winner Shiho Kuwaki wound up costing Tamburlini a spot. Even without making it on points, Henseleit would have made her second straight team as one of the leading six players in the world ranking.
Those six spots instead fell to Solheim rookie Lottie Woad of England, Maja Stark and Linn Grant of Sweden, Carlota Ciganda of Spain, Celine Boutier of France and Nanna Koertz Madsen of Denmark.

Golfer Charley Hull has told critics to "lighten up" after receiving backlash for a scratchcard prank she played on her caddie.
In the lead up to the ongoing Women's Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes, Hull revealed she had purchased the ticket in a Blackpool joke shop and used it to trick caddie Adam Woodward into believing he had won £100,000 – a moment she caught on camera.
While many people have seen the funny side of the incident, Hull has faced criticism both on social media and from figures within golf, including four-time major winner Dame Laura Davies, who described the stunt as "extremely cruel" when asked about it on commentary.
However, Hull has refused to apologise for her actions, with the 30-year-old stating she would "100%" do it again.

LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England – Charley Hull admits she never watches YouTube golf but nevertheless has decided to launch her own YouTube channel.
"Sweet Spot Golf" makes its debut this week with a tour 'round Royal Lytham and St. Annes, site of this week's AIG Women's British Open. Hull hosts the channel alongside good friend Ryan Evans, the guy she bet 10,000 pounds that she could quit smoking.
"Ryan is one of my very good friends, my best friends, and he's played golf with me since I was 10, 11 years old," she said during a pre-tournament press conference. "We was just playing loads of golf rounds last year, and like some of the rounds I was – I think one of the rounds I was 8 under through nine holes and then he birdied six of last seven holes to then be all square.
"I turned around to him I was like, oh, my gosh, like we have like played so well and like had so much banter in this round. Imagine someone recording this. It would be hilarious. He was like, yeah, and I was like, maybe we should start our own YouTube channel like joking around.
"I actually never watched YouTube golf, just to let you guys know. So then we've just thought, screw this, go ahead with it, and, yeah, launched it the other day."

We continue the countdown to the start of the Arizona Cardinals' regular season. Today, Tuesday, July 28, is 47 days away from the Arizona Cardinals' regular-season opener on Sept. 13 on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers.
With 47 days until Week 1, let's look back at the 1947 season for the Cardinals.
The Cardinals have never won a Super Bowl, but they won the NFL Championship in 1947. They went 9-3 in the regular season and then beat the Philadelphia Eagles 28-21 in the championship game.
Running back Elmer Angsman had two 70-yard touchdown runs, running back Charley Trippi had a 44-yard touchdown run and a 75-yard punt return for a touchdown. Paul Christman only completed three passes in 14 attempts and was picked off twice, but the Cardinals rushed for 282 yards to be crowned champions.
Receiver Mal Kutner and guard Buster Ramsey were both second-team All-Pros in 1947.

Charlotte Naughton's golfing career was already on an upward trajectory, but the teenager will hit fast forward.
That is because she is preparing to tee up in the AIG Women's Open - the first major of her career.
Still 18, Naughton only secured her spot at Royal Lytham & St Annes this week by virtue of winning the European Ladies Amateur Championship in Sweden on Sunday.
Now the young amateur heads to Lancashire to take her place alongside Charley Hull, Nelly Korda and the other star names of women's golf when the tournament begins on Thursday.
"I've always dreamed about it," Naughton told BBC Radio Newcastle. "I never really knew it would come this quick but I'm so happy and so proud to be able to play."

MANCHESTER – The Portsmouth Little League 10-12 all-star team will play for the District II championship on Saturday, July 25, after a 7-4 win over top-seeded North Manchester/Hooksett on Wednesday, July 22.
"The boys stayed composed and strung together good at-bats when we needed them most," Portsmouth manager Charley Raizes said. "Dreyton (Srimouksavanh) continued to battle on the mound when faced with some adversity and was able to help prevent a comeback. We're excited for the opportunity to compete for a district championship."
Portsmouth will face the winner of Thursday's game between North Manchester/Hooksett and Concord in the championship. The championship game will be played at Charles Dwinell Park in Tilton at 10 a.m.
After a scoreless first inning, Portsmouth broke through in the second when Sam Carter and Ryder Raizes each singled, and Joey Coakley added a third single to right field to score the game's first two runs.
Portsmouth erupted for five runs on four hits in the fourth inning. Srimouksavanh led off with a single, and two walks loaded the bases for Carter, who delivered an RBI infield single. Ryder Raizes followed with a two-run single to left field, and Bennett Smith added a two-run hit of his own to extend Portsmouth's lead to 7-0.

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France (AP) — Aki Iwai shot an 8-under 63 for a two-stroke lead on Thursday in the first round of the Evian Championship, the fourth women's golf major of the season, as top-ranked Nelly Korda struggled.
The 24th-ranked Iwai had eight birdies and no dropped shots in the sun-splashed lakeside town that three weeks ago hosted the G7 summit of world leaders.
Japan's Iwai made birdies at three of the last four holes, including the par-5 18th, and led by two shots from Perrine Delacour, whose 6-under 65 included an eagle at the par-5 15th and a pair of bogeys toward the end of her round.
A group of five players with 5-under 66s included the winner of the Women's PGA Championship two weeks ago, Haeran Ryu, and world No. 5 Charley Hull, who started the week as a guest in the Royal Box at Wimbledon.
Hull had two early bogeys before making the turn at level par, then came home in just 31 shots capped by an eagle at the par-5 18th. Also on 5 under were Mao Saigo, Maja Stark and Jin Hee Im.

We continue the countdown to the start of the Arizona Cardinals' regular season. Today, Thursday, July 9, is 66 days away from the Arizona Cardinals' regular-season opener on Sept. 13 on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers.
With 66 days until Week 1, let's look back at the 1966 season for the Cardinals.
1966 was the first year for Charley Winner as head coach, replacing Wally Lemm after four seasons. Winner led the Cardinals to an 8-5-1 record, but it wasn't good enough to make the postseason. They scored and allowed 18.9 points per game, which was bad offensively but pretty good defensively.
They started the season 5-0 but lost 4 of their final 5 games of the year.
The Cardinals had eight players in the Pro Bowl:

The 8U 007's, a softball team based in Ascension Parish, won the Louisiana A Class State Championship, coaches announced.
The team defeated Velocity Softball of Pineville, 7-6, to capture the ***** le, per the announcement.
It was the third straight first-place finish and sixth of the season.
In the final inning of the game, Freya Gunness delivered the walk off hit to score Ainsley Matthews.
The team was led by the defense of Karoline Simoneaux, Harley Albert and Brynn and Ainsley Matthews.
