While defensive end Yannick Ngakoue has missed a lot of time on the field with his teammates since organized team activities, defensive coordinator Todd Wash is fully confident in his ability to come into training camp ready. When asked about the fourth-year player's pending return, Wash spoke highly of one of his young leaders stating that he already knows the scheme like the back of his hand. Wash on DE Yannick Ngakoue, who is expected to report prior to the Aug. 6 deadline: "Yan can lead the defensive line meeting room. He knows everything. I'm not worried about (him catching up.)" #Jaguars - Phillip Heilman (@phillip_heilman) August 2, 2019 Ngakoue, 24, has been holding out of the Jags' summer activities in efforts to land a new contract as he is on the last year of his rookie deal. After watching edge rushers like Dee Ford, Demarcus Lawrence and Frank Clark receive big extensions this offseason, Ngakoue and his camp elected to fight towards an extension, too, but both sides haven't been able to find common ground. Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the Jags did offer Ngakoue a short-term deal worth $19 million annually , but the full details weren't revealed as Ngakoue and his agent, Ari Nissim, elected to shoot for something better. Despite all that has gone on between himself and the front office, one thing that fans can bet their last dollar on is the fact that Ngakoue has been working hard while away from the team. After all, he's done nothing but grind since he was drafted and I'd expect nothing different from him this offseason.

Women have outperformed their male counterparts in entrance examinations for a medical school in Japan that last year admitted rigging admission procedures to give men an unfair advantage. Juntendo University in Tokyo said that of the 1,679 women who took its medical school entrance exam earlier this year, 139, or 8.28%, had passed. The pass rate among 2,202 male candidates was 7.72%. It was the first time in seven years that the pass rate among women was higher than among men, the Asahi Shimbun reported. The university attributed the exam results to its decision to "abolish the unfair treatment of female applicants" after last year's revelations. Related: Tokyo medical school 'changed test scores to keep women out' Juntendo was one of several medical schools that were found to have manipulated exam results to give first-time male applicants an advantage over women and others who had previously failed the exam. The dean of the medical school, Hiroyuki Daida, initially attempted to justify the practice, saying women matured faster than men and had better communication skills. "In some ways, this was a measure designed to help male applicants," he told reporters. The sexist admissions policy drew widespread criticism after the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper revealed in August last year that Tokyo medical college had rigged exam scores for more than a decade to favour male candidates, citing concerns that women who went on to become doctors would leave the profession to have children. Last month, the medical school said female applicants had performed slightly better than men this year after gender -based anomalies in the admissions procedure were removed. The pass rate among women at Tokyo medical school was 20.4%, 0.4 percentage points higher than among male candidates, the university said, according to the Japan Times. The success rate the previous year, when the discriminatory marking practice was still in place, was just 2.9 % for women and 9% for men. In 2016, women accounted for just 21.1% of all doctors in Japan , the lowest level among nations belonging to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Among G7 countries, Britain had the highest proportion, at 47.2%, followed by Germany, France and Canada. The medical school scandal reinforced claims of institutional sexism in the Japanese workplace and education, frustrating efforts by the prime minister, Shinzo Abe, to create a society "in which women can shine". While women's representation in the workplace is rising, Japan compares poorly with other countries in promoting women to senior positions. Many female employees face discrimination when trying to return to work after giving birth.


CHICAGO   A car struck and killed a 4-year-old girl on the city's South Side. The collision happened at about 6:30 p.m. Monday at 89th and Clyde in Chicago's Calumet Heights neighborhood. Police said a 74-year-old woman was backing up in a driveway and lost control, striking the 4-year-old girl as well as an 8-year-old girl. The woman told police she accidentally hit the gas pedal instead of the brake. The 4-year-old was transported to Comer Children's Hospital in critical condition, but she later died from her injuries. She was identified by the Cook County medical examiner's office as Nalleeha Washington. The 8-year-old girl was treated for minor injuries at the scene. ___ (c)2019 WGN-TV, Chicago Visit WGN-TV, Chicago at www.wgntv.com Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

The Davey O'Brien Award released its 2019 watch list on Tuesday and, unlike the Maxwell and Bednarik awards , it did not seemingly include every player in college football. Only half of them. In truth, 30 players were selected to the 2019 watch list, which means 100 eventual starting quarterbacks were not. Chief among them is Oklahoma's Jalen Hurts , possibly because the O'Brien Foundation took the directive from Lincoln Riley that Hurts is not OU's starter, yet. On the list are 2018 finalist Tua Tagovailoa as well as semifinalists Ian Book , Mason Fine , Jake Fromm , Justin Herbert , D'Eriq King , Trevor Lawrence , Jordan Love and Shea Patterson . The SEC led the way with six representatives, followed by the Pac-12's five and the Big 12's four. California had the most native sons with seven, followed by Texas' six. The list will be whittled down to 16 semifinalists on Nov. 13 and three finalists on Nov. 25. The winner will be named as part of the Home Depot College Football Awards show on Dec. 12. The full list: Jake Bentley, South Carolina Ian Book, Notre Dame Alan Bowman, Texas Tech Charlie Brewer, Baylor Joe Burrow, LSU K.J. Costello, Stanford J.T.

News out of New York is the Jets have fired their general manager , Mike Maccagnan and VP of Player Personnel Brian Heimerdinger. This is per NFL reporter Adam Schefter. On the surface, news like this is huge from an NFL standpoint, but should it matter to the Pittsburgh Steelers? Perhaps not but according to Jets reporter Manish Mehta, a former Steelers could have been part of the reason why. According to Mehta, head coach Adam Gase and Maccagnan seriously disagreed about the signing of running back Le'Veon Bell. The Jets signed Bell to a huge free-agent contract in the offseason. One disagreement between Adam Gase and Mike Maccagnan/Christopher Johnson… Gase absolutely did not want to sign Le'Veon Bell, per sources. In fact, he made it clear that he didn't want to spend a lot of money on any running back. - Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) May 15, 2019 Gase will be the interim general manager for now and this news can't be great for Bell, knowing his head coach didn't want him and the team is now in his full control. This is a situation we will be sure to monitor so if you don't want to hear about Bell, you might want to bypass the updates. The Steelers take on the Jets on the road in Week 16.

Video by Sports Media Group Klay Thompson is officially questionable to play in Game 3 of the 2019 NBA Finals, but the Golden State Warriors star expects to be on the court. Speaking with the media on Tuesday, Thompson said he "will be a game-time decision, but for me it's hard to see me not playing," per Marc J. Spears of ESPN. Thompson has played through injuries before, but hamstrings are tricky. He injured his hamstring in the second half of Game 2 when he attempted to draw a foul on a three-point shot, coming down awkwardly.

Backup center Kevon Looney is also out for the series due to a broken collarbone suffered after Kawhi Leonard crashed into him . Golden State heads into Game 3 more short-handed than usual. If Thompson can play, and play well, it would be a significant boost. Game 3 takes place at Oracle Arena Wednesday night, starting at 9 p.m. ET. The series is all knotted up at one game apiece.

There aren't many players in the NFL that are as loved and respected as Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who has built a career on being not only a great player but one of the best men to play the game. That notion is not lost on Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich, who had the pleasure of working with Fitzgerald during the 2012 season as the Cardinals wide receivers coach. Reich has been around a lot of great professionals during his time in the NFL, and he didn't hesitate to include Fitzgerald in the class of the best people to play the game. "I don't want to say Larry Fitzgerald is the greatest pro of all time, but he's in the class, not just as a player, but as a true pro," Reich told The Buffalo News . "There's a handful of guys like him and Peyton and others. And Larry's just a unique person and player." Reich was only with the Cardinals for one year as the wide receivers coach. It was right after the overhaul of the Colts coaching staff that landed Chuck Pagano and just before his time with the San Diego Chargers. Now as the head coach of a Colts team coming off a 10-6 season and a trip to the AFC divisional round, Reich feels he became a smarter offensive mind from having coached Fitzgerald and the wide receivers that season. "Just coaching the wide receiver position really helped me develop as an offensive coach even further," Reich said. "But just learning the finest details of the position, I think, was helpful and just to see Larry's work ethic. I mean, his work ethic was second to none, how hard he practiced, the way he finished on every play." As Reich enters his second season as the head coach of the Colts, Fitzgerald will be entering his 16th season in the NFL, all of which have come with the Cardinals. The latter is sure to be a Hall of Famer when he finally decides to retire the spikes.

Barcelona have unveiled their new typography ahead of the new season, FC Barcelona Play, which will feature on the backs of their shirts as well as in all club marketing during the upcoming season. It's the first time that Barça have designed their own typography for these purposes, with the previous designs all being driven by kit manufacturer Nike. During the new season, the typography will be used on the shirts of all of Barça's football teams, as well as their basketball, handball, roller hockey and futsal sides.  'FC Barcelona Play', the typography that Barça will premiere in the 2019/20 season All the details  https://t.co/DY1LeatP4M pic.twitter.com/r3PBTysjH0   FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) July 6, 2019 Due to La Liga rules, FC Barcelona Play can only be used in friendlies, Copa del Rey and Champions League matches and is due to be used for the first time against Chelsea in Tokyo on 23rd July. An offical statement from the club's website read: "The new typography, which has already been seen on the shirts of the new signings in the different professional teams, is the result of a creative process that has taken into account the history of the club to the brand story and the need to have a strong graphic character, whilst at the same time owning a creative expressiveness that is recognisable and can be identified with Barça ." It all sounds like marketing guff, however this isn't a new phenomenon. In England, Tottenham Hotspur have been using their own typography for a while now, as have other big clubs around the world such as Juventus, AC Milan and Manchester United as part of their global brand. As the Blaugrana prepare to defend their La Liga title they will hope to have some new names written in their new font. Negotiations over Antoine Griezmann are ongoing, but as yet no deal has been reached with Atlético Madrid for the French striker. Despite winning the league title, there was a feeling amongst the supporters that the team underachieved last season. In the Champions League they collapsed in extraordinary fashion at the semi-final stage against Liverpool and several weeks later they lost the Copa Del Rey final against Valencia.


Bayern Munich have announced that Franck Ribery will not extend his contract with Die Roten, drawing an end to the Frenchman's 12-year career in Bavaria. The news had been expected for sometime with the 36-year-old joining Arjen Robben in leaving the Bundesliga side after a trophy-laden spell in Germany.  @FranckRibery will not extend his contract with #FCBayern , and will leave this summer. Thank you for everything, Franck. ❤ #MiaSanMia , forever  pic.twitter.com/QNOwpFJ9tF   FC Bayern English (@FCBayernEN) May 5, 2019 On the club's official website , Bayern confirmed both players will be rewarded for their service with a testimonial match in 2020, with Ribery's contract officially ending on June 30. "When I came to Bayern, it was a dream come true. It won't be easy to say goodbye, but we must never forget what we've achieved together," Ribery said. "We've won so much together - more than 20 honours." Having joined the club in the summer of 2007 from Marseille, Ribery has enjoyed immense success, winning the league eight times and lifting the Champions League in 2013, where Ribery assisted Robben for the winning goal in the final at Wembley. The club paid tribute to Ribery and Robben, thanking the duo for their contributions over their respective spells at the Allianz Arena in which time Die Roten 's number seven has played over 422 times, scoring 123 goals. "Franck and Arjen are great players. FC Bayern owes a lot to both of them and we will give them a wonderful and emotional farewell," said chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. "They've helped shape FC Bayern's most successful decade with fantastic football." Hard work pays off ⚽ Three matches to go this season, let's do this @FCBayern  #fr7  #miasanmia pic.twitter.com/pQj4Pm0oX0   Franck Ribéry (@FranckRibery) May 4, 2019 After Borussia Dortmund could only manage a draw with Werder Bremen on Saturday, it leaves Bayern in an advantageous position to secure their seventh consecutive Bundesliga title. Ribery scored in the club's 3-1 win over Hannover 96, meaning victory away at RB Leipzig will edge them one step closer to the title in Niko Kovac's first season in charge.

Sasha is friendly as can be   she'll get along great with your other dogs. She's been vaccinated and spayed. She is already house-trained. Sasha's current caretakers say: Meet Sasha! Sasha (aka Sasha-bear) is a 9-year-old German Shepard Mix, but don't let that number fool you. She is an energetic girl with tons of skills. Although she might be a little shy at first, she warms up quickly, especially with a treat or two. Sasha knows many commands, including sit, down, shake (or paw) and has been working on target touching. She also enjoys showing off her mad ball catching skills. She is incredibly smart and is very food motivated, so I have no doubt that she will learn many new tricks. She loves walks and is working on leash manners. If the elements don't allow for walks, she is happy with several toy tosses or tug-of-war games, then happily curls up on her bed and enjoys scratches and belly rubs. She is very loving and enjoys all of the affection you can give her. Sasha has impeccable manners and will wait to eat her breakfast/dinner until she is given the command, "OK". She rarely jumps up and will never counter surf or eat your favorite pair of sneakers. How can I be so sure? I have left freshly made waffles within reach on the counter, left the room, and they were all there when I returned. She has gone over night and been alone with countless shoes and rugs. She really only wants her toys. She enjoys talking, and will vocalize and chatter her teeth when she's excited, but she doesn't bark often. She is completely house-trained and would prefer to either have free-roam, or be gated in one room while her humans are away. When you return, she will greet you with a toy in her mouth and full-body wiggles. Read more about how to adopt Sasha on Petfinder .

He can be very excitable so because of his size, Boss may not be the best companion for young children unless they are dog savvy.

Sox loves to go for long walks, loves playing fetch with her squeaky ball, and enjoys a good swim once in a while. Even with all this energy, Sox loves to snuggle and is very happy when she is up on the couch with her people, snoring away.
