A Miami-area man filed a lawsuit accusing a Canadian heiress and her husband, a former reality TV personality, of borrowing $2 million and failing to repay it.
Named in the suit are Brendan Fitzpatrick, 38, who appeared on Rich Kids of Beverly Hills, and Chloe de Serigny, 31, the granddaughter of late financier Paul Desmarais, according to the Daily Mail.
In the federal complaint, Max Jan Fowles-Pazdro, 46, says Fitzpatrick convinced him in January 2025 to put up a $2 million bridge loan for a real estate project in the United Kingdom.
"Following repeated and increasingly desperate pleas from [Fitzpatrick] — [Fowles-Pazdro's] then-close friend — [Fowles-Pazdro] dug into his and his wife's life savings and funded a $2 million bridge loan that Brendan promised to begin repaying within six weeks," the filing stated, per the Daily Mail. "Two years have since elapsed — and not a penny of the loan has been repaid. With their nest egg gone, [Fowles-Pazdro] and his wife now teeter on financial ruin."
The suit also says the couple has continued to present an image of affluence, pointing to social media photos of them on a yacht in the Mediterranean.

CANNONSBURG Riley Maynard cornered the market on game-winners.
The ball hadn't seen the back of the net for nearly an hour of match time when the Boyd County freshman took care of any shootout concerns in the second overtime period against Ashland.
Maynard lined up her shot near the corner flag, connected with her left foot, and curved it inside the far post to lift the Lions to a 2-1 win in the 63rd District seeding contest Thursday.
Boyd County coach Olivia Pennington said it's not the first time Maynard found her target on the long-distance shot that offers no angle to the goal.
"It's something that she's done multiple times this season," Pennington said. "Any time we have that shot on the left side, Riley is attempting that shot."

CANNONSBURG After ninety minutes of intense, goalless soccer, Boyd County coach Levi Pennington still needed five guys for an energized ending.
Ashland and the Lions battled to nil-nil after two halves and two overtime periods. Each player on the pitch had done their part to empower their team, but work remained to determine a victor.
Bracken Peters sent the closing delivery inside the left post and supplied the final point in kicks from the mark for a 1-0 victory over the Tomcats in a 63rd District seeding match Thursday.
"(Thursday night), the (shootout) lineup changed based on how the game was going," Boyd County coach Levi Pennington said, "with body language and players. I felt like some of our guys were more gassed than normal. I pushed them a little further down the list and let their legs get back under them. I told them it's nothing against you, but it's next man up right now."
Ashland's freshman keeper, Karson Freeman, denied Boyd County's first attempt to help the Tomcats grab a quick advantage in the shootout. The visitors' second try clanged off the crossbar, and Zeke Withrow calmly blasted the next shot through to the twine to tie the session.

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr. has dealt with a lot of trade rumors and highest-paid cornerback speculation over the past few months, but the real issue in contract talks is becoming more clear by the day.
According to PennLive's Nick Farabaugh, as well as Porter's own admission that he doesn't care about becoming the highest-paid corner, the contract negotiations are all about guaranteed money.
"Repeat after me -- It's not the AAV, it's the guarantees! (and always has been)," Farabaugh wrote via X.
So far this year, we've seen cornerbacks like Christian Gonzalez, Devon Witherspoon, and Trent McDuffie completely reset the cornerback market with deals surpassing $30 million per year. Their guaranteed money has been around 75% to 80% of their total contract value.
Previously, we at Steelers Wire predicted that Porter could sign a four-year, $128 million extension that pays him an average of $32 million per season with $101 million in guaranteed money. But it's evident the holdup is more related to the latter.

Tucker Kraft remains one of the Green Bay Packers' biggest unresolved situations heading into Week 1. Green Bay has yet to reach an agreement on a contract extension with the young tight end, while the team also awaits a timetable for Josh Jacobs' potential NFL discipline amid his legal issues.
Adam Schefter weighed in on Kraft's contract talks with Green Bay, urging the tight end to think twice before walking away from guaranteed money that could be available to him.
"He's coming off a torn ACL and the Packers have a relatively strong offer out there. I think it's hard coming off an ACL to turn down real money," the NFL ****** yst commented during his appearance on The Pat McAfee show.

Christian Gonzalez and Baker Mayfield showed that players can hold their ground during contract talks without letting negotiations drag into the regular season. Schefter cited both cases as examples for Kraft, who is still trying to secure his next deal with Green Bay.

Happy game week and we hope that you're ready for tomorrow's Penn State game at Temple. Ahead of this matchup, I sent a few questions to Steve Helwick of Underdog Dynasty to preview this game. Steve is a regular around these parts with our opponent Q and A and you should head to our sister site to read more about Temple – and the rest of their conference brethren. Here's what Steve had to say about tomorrow's game.
It's year two for K.C. Keeler at Temple. He went 5-7 in his first year in Philadelphia. What do you make of his fit at Temple and what are expectations for the Owls the rest of this season?
K.C. Keeler has already proven to be an excellent fit at Temple. His résumé speaks for itself, and he is a proven winner even with a lack of resources. He won FCS national championships at both Delaware and Sam Houston, but his 10-win season at Sam Houston in year two of FBS membership might be his magnum opus. Additionally, he's a great fit since he has publicly declared this will be his final job, which promises Temple players and staffers a sense of stability.
Keeler walked into Philadelphia last year and immediately turned Temple into a 5-win team, after the Owls hadn't won more than three games in the entire 2020s. Temple fell one point short of both service academies, and flipping either result would have pushed the program into the postseason.
Temple played incredibly sound football in Keeler's first season, only losing four turnovers the entire year. The Owls should have lofty expectations considering they didn't lose a single starter to the transfer portal. However, they lack experience at quarterback and replacing Evan Simon is no easy task, which could present some challenges offensively. I would label bowl eligibility as a reasonable and attainable goal for this 2026 team.

2. There's a quarterback controversy right now, including former Penn Stater Jaxon Smolik. Where does that stand now and what do you expect from the offense against Penn State?

Sen. John Fetterman has faced a tide of public criticism from fellow Democrats as he stakes out lonely ground as a critic of the far-left wing of his party — and another wave rolled in Wednesday after he made a surprise video appearance at the Republican midterm convention.
So far, however, his Senate colleagues haven't joined the pile-on.
Democratic senators are staying above the fray as they work to flip the majority in November amid constant speculation that the 57-year-old Pennsylvanian could trigger a nightmare scenario by leaving the party and caucusing with the GOP.
Some have worked to publicly bat down suggestions that Fetterman could abandon Democrats for the final two years of his term — something he has denied considering, even as he continues to raise eyebrows with his outspoken support of Israel, bashing of democratic socialists and close relationships with Senate Republicans.
"John Fetterman is a friend and an important member of our caucus. It's a waste of energy to get spun up about his voting record or place in our party — he votes with us 90 percent of the time," Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont, who is close with Fetterman, said in a statement to POLITICO before the convention appearance. "We need a big tent if we're going to win in November."

Quinn Hughes says he feels "at peace" amid speculation about his contract with the Wild.
At the NHL's North American Media Tour in Las Vegas on Wednesday, Hughes told the ******* embled press that he "didn't feel backed up against a wall" as the Wild aim to sign him to a long-term extension.
Following last season's playoff exit, Hughes mentioned his openness to re-signing with the organization that gave up a haul to acquire him from Vancouver last December. Yet, with less than a month before the season gets underway, Hughes remains without an extension heading into the final year of his contract.
In a podcast with league insider Elliotte Friedman that dropped on Thursday, Hughes provided even more insights into his thought process and certainly gave Wild fans hope of a long-term future in Minnesota.
"I mean, to be honest, I'm not thinking too much," Hughes said. "I'm excited to go to camp. I loved my season, my time in Minnesota last year."

Jenny McCarthy sparked a huge response from her followers when she unveiled a "natural" transformation on Wednesday – but it appears no one was as impressed as her husband, Donnie Wahlberg.
Of course, in Jenny's typical humor, there was nothing "natural" about the 50-year-old's makeover as she completely transformed herself into Dumbledore for Harry Potter night on 'The Masked Singer'.
Sharing a video on Instagram featuring her co-star, Nicole Scherzinger – who was dressed as Hermione – Jenny startled her followers when she suddenly appeared on screen in full costume that included long gray hair and a matching long beard. Check out the video below…
Captioning the hilarious clip, the TV star jokingly penned: "Went for a more natural look this week on maskedsingerfox. What do you think?"
Her followers were impressed with her commitment to the evening, with one commenting: "The way I just screamed and hollered has to be criminal!! Was not expecting that jump scare. You are freaking hilarious." A second said: "I never would've thought that you look so good even while wearing a beard."

On August 4, Essential Utilities (NYSE:WTRG) reported second-quarter results that read like two different stories stapled together. Revenue climbed, the dividend grew for the 36th time in 35 years, and the merger with American Water inched closer to the finish line. But earnings per share actually dipped from a year earlier, and the company had to strip out merger costs just to show flat profitability. For a utility this steady, that split is worth a closer look.
Essential's regulated water segment posted revenue of $357.5 million in the quarter, up 7.6% from $332.3 million a year earlier, and the whole company's first-half revenue climbed 7.2% to nearly $1.4 billion. Much of that growth came from rate cases: state regulators approved $43.9 million in new annual water revenue across Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, North Carolina and Indiana, plus $12.7 million more for the gas business in Kentucky and Pennsylvania. Another $79.7 million in water rate requests and a $163.2 million gas case in Pennsylvania, tied to replacing aging pipelines, are still working through the process.
The company keeps buying its way into new customers, too. In May, it closed a $4.9 million wastewater deal in Bastrop County, Texas, and it has signed agreements worth roughly $282 million to add over 200,000 more customers in Pennsylvania, Texas, North Carolina and New Jersey, including the $276.5 million purchase of Philadelphia-area sewer authority DELCORA. Since 2015, acquisitions have added more than 138,000 customers to Essential's base.
Layer on the pending American Water merger, which cleared Virginia and Ohio regulators this year after nearly unanimous shareholder approval in February, and Essential is positioning itself as a much larger multi-state utility by early 2027. The board's decision to raise the dividend 5.25% to $0.3606 per share, continuing a streak of 36 increases over 35 years, signals confidence that this growth is durable.
Look past the top line and the picture gets less flattering. Second quarter net income actually fell to $105.7 million from $107.8 million a year ago, pulling GAAP earnings per share down to $0.37 from $0.38. Essential had to report an adjusted $0.38 figure just to exclude merger-related costs and show earnings roughly matching last year's. The slide is sharper over six months: net income dropped to $330.1 million, or $1.16 per share, from $391.6 million, or $1.41 per share, in the first half of 2025.

It was a game of firsts for Caleb Bacon. Not only was it the first game of 2026, but also Bacon's first game as a Nittany Lion after transferring from Iowa State, as well as his first game as a full time defensive end since switching from linebacker.
It's safe to say all the changes worked out for Bacon, as he was named the Big Ten's Co-Defensive Player of the Week for week one. Bacon made an immediate impact in his Nittany Lions debut, collecting three TFLs, a sack, and six tackles in the first half alone against Marshall. The Thundering Herd had difficulty handling Bacon, as he constantly provided pressure and wreaked havoc in the backfield whenever he was on the field. Bacon even had a sequence with consecutive TFLs as he helped to shut down an early drive by Marshall as the Nittany Lions defense held them scoreless throughout the game. It was Penn State's first shutout in a season opener since blanking Akron in 2017.
Bacon shares the honor with UCLA's Ta'Shawn James, who had two interceptions to help lead the Bruins to a victory over Cal on Saturday.

CHICAGO — The second volleyball match Sunday night at Wrigley Field in the SEC-Big Ten Challenge was suspended because of excessive moisture on the court.
The decision was made to prevent injuries after players slipped several times on the wet surface.
With a sellout crowd of 43,067 energized for the first volleyball event at the iconic home of the Chicago Cubs, third-ranked Kentucky beat No. 11 Penn State in four sets in the opening match — just an appetizer for fans of the top-ranked Huskers, who filled nearly all of the seats at Wrigley.
Ideal conditions — or so it seemed — awaited Nebraska and Missouri. But the first set was stopped for more than 15 minutes after 2 points. Players from both teams dried the TeraFlex floor with towels as the humidity levels of a 72-degree night pushed past 80 percent.
"This was amazing," Nebraska coach Dani Busboom Kelly said. "I applaud the effort. But there's a reason our sport's indoors."

#wrigley #first

43,687 fans were in attendance to watch Nebraska and Missouri take the court at Wrigley Field. It started over an hour later than originally planned after a tight match up between Penn State and Kentucky. That game ended in four sets with the Wildcats taking the game: 25-23, 25-21, 23-25, 25-15.
There was further delay after that, as the court was getting slippery and everyone started falling when the match started. During the delay even the players were on the floor mopping up the floor, trying to make it so they were able to play safely.
After getting their bearings in the first few points, Nebraska pulled ahead with some kills by Andi Jackson and good serves from Virginia Adriano.
The game was interrupted several times for toweling off and the coaches meeting to make sure they were doing all they could to make sure the players were safe. Nebraska was up 11-7 in set 1 when everyone headed back to the dugout to let the blowers try to dry it off more.
However after a long delay, the game was suspended. It is TBD when Nebraska and Missouri will pick up this match again.

CHICAGO — The historic women's college volleyball match at Wrigley Field between Missouri and Nebraska was delayed early in the first set due to excessive moisture on the court.
After workers spent several minutes using mops on the court laid down on the Chicago Cubs' field, players from both teams got on their hands and knees with towels to try and dry the playing surface. Several Nebraska players took a break for a brief dance party when the P.A. started playing Justin Bieber's "Baby" before resuming their efforts to get the court playable. At least two people with leaf blowers eventually came out to help with the efforts.
The match resumed after about 20 minutes.
The Tigers and Cornhuskers, along with Penn State and Kentucky, played at Wrigley on Sunday, Sept. 6, as part of the Big Ten/SEC Volleyball Challenge. It's the first time the iconic baseball stadium has hosted the sport.
Penn State and Kentucky played the first match, and players from both teams said the court got increasingly slick as the night wore on.

No. 3 Kentucky Volleyball took on No. 13 Penn State inside Wrigley Field in Chicago on Sunday night. Kentucky dominated the matchup, winning in four sets by scores of 25-23, 25-21, 23-25 and 25-15.
With the victory, Kentucky improves to 5-1 on the season, while Penn State falls to 3-1.
One of Kentucky's star players, outside hitter Brooklyn DeLeye, finished with 21 ***** ists and 22 points. Outside hitter Georgia Watson, who is from Huntley, Illinois, about an hour outside Chicago, recorded a perfect hitting percentage and helped seal the victory for Kentucky with the match-winning point in the fourth set.
For Watson to end the game in the place where she grew up, just outside the city of Chicago, must have been a surreal moment for her, as well as for her family and friends.
Setter Kassie O'Brien also had an impressive performance, recording 48 ***** ists, while middle blocker Lizzie Carr led the match with six blocks.

The Kentucky Wildcats volleyball team faced another ranked team on Sunday night by taking on the 13th ranked Penn State Nittany Lions at Wrigley Field in Chicago. It could have been a tough match, but at the end of the night, the Cats stood tall, and got a fourth straight win 3-1 (25-23, 25-21, 23-25, 25-15).
Kentucky was led by Brooklyn DeLeye, who had 21 kills and a .319 hit percentage. Morgan Gaerte was right behind her with 16 kills of her own, and Asia Thigpen added 12 more.
The Wildcats also excelled on defense, totaling 23 blocks, with Lizzie Carr and Gaerte each posting 6 of them. Kennedy Washington added 5 blocks. They were also impressive all match at getting digs, with Molly Tuozzo out in front with 19. Kassie O'Brien had 48 ***** ists.
Next up for Kentucky is a match against North Carolina. They'll face off on Wednesday back at home in Lexington, with the match scheduled to begin at 6:00 P.M. ET.

Ruben Amorim admits Milan 'didn't deserve to win, or more like Juventus didn't deserve to lose' after their 1-1 draw in Turin. 'We need to move more and be braver.'
The Rossoneri had struggled to create any genuine scoring opportunities in Turin and thanked first Mike Maignan, then the frame of the goal for keeping out Francisco Conceicao.

Substitute Alphadjo Cisse gave them the lead somewhat against the run of play with a well-taken angled drive through Pierre Kalulu's legs, but in stoppages Federico Gatti nodded in the Teun Koopmeiners cross for the late equaliser.
It means both Milan and Juventus lose their 100 per cent start to the Serie A season, dropping points in this head-to-head.

Leeds United have now ended their academy transfer story, with 16-year-old winger Silva Mexes now across the Pennines after leaving Manchester United. MOTLeedsNews reported that the long chase was over once the summer window closed, ending speculation around the Thailand youth international and his next step.
Mexes joined United from Ipswich Town in 2024, aged 14, but he did not make a competitive senior or formal U18 league appearance during 2025/26, spending much of that period with the U16 group. His switch gives him a new setting at Thorp Arch, where the academy has a strong record. Leeds' 2026/27 squad listing now includes Tyler-Earnshaw, confirming his place at the club.
There's a reason this move makes sense from Leeds' side. Mexes has the athletic profile that can trouble academy defenders, with an 11.1-second personal best over 100 metres and a willingness to attack from the left. That speed gives him a weapon, yet acceleration alone won't earn him minutes with Daniel Farke.
Farke asks his wide players to contribute beyond the highlight moments. They need to track runners, keep their shape, combine cleanly and recognise when to attack ******* e rather than forcing a duel. Mexes has the directness ******* ociated with a player such as Daniel James, but the tactical detail will take time, as he steps into the U18 and U21 levels.
BRIGHTON, ENGLAND – SEPTEMBER 05: Daniel Farke, Manager of Leeds United, acknowledges the fans after the Premier League 2026/27 match between Brighton & Hove Albion and Leeds United at American Express Stadium on September 05, 2026 in Brighton, England. (Photo by Luke Walker/Getty Images)

At this point in the Major League Baseball season, Wrigley Field is typically hosting the Chicago Cubs as they make their stretch-run push toward the postseason.
This particular Sunday, however, baseball will take a back seat — and does so for a historic reason.
Headlined by powerhouse Nebraska, the Friendly Confines is set to host two outdoor volleyball matches on Sunday, Sept. 6 between the Cornhuskers and Missouri, and Penn State vs. Kentucky in the inaugural Big Ten/SEC Volleyball Challenge.

Sunday's match features just one of several neutral sites the Cornhuskers have played at to begin Year 2 of the Dani Busboom Kelly era in Lincoln, as Nebraska has already competed in the Players Era and Spikes Under The Lights events. With the return of All-Americans Bergen Reilly, Harper Murray and Andi Jackson, the Cornhuskers are looking to get back to the final weekend of the NCAA Tournament after falling in the quarterfinals last season.
