Suh has a reputation for being a dirty player, but it is possible for Suh to make a tackle, even one that may cause injury and it not be considered dirty....
He didn't feel right on Thursday, following a road trip and Wednesday home game against the Washington Capitals, and saw a doctor. The end result: He'll miss at least Pittsburgh's home-and-home with the Philadelphia Flyers. Neal (22 goals, 27 assists in 44 games) has missed time this season because of an upper-body injury (15 games) and a suspension for kneeing Brad Marchand in the head (five games). "You hope the symptoms subside and it's shorter than longer," coach Dan Bylsma said on Friday....

So, the obvious question: Did Otto Bluege get the job he sought as an infielder when he placed that Sporting News ad? MORE: Historic baseball photos by Charles Conlon Yes! Although it’s hard to say if the ad was actually helpful in finding employment for Bluege, as the team that wound up signing him was the Green Bay Bluejays of the Class D Wisconsin State League, a team managed by Ossie Bluege, Otto’s brother....
A bystander, Lariana Garvis, filmed the entire incident which occurred Friday in Nashua, New Hampshire.

In the video, Garvis can be heard yelling “we got you,” as she ran toward the house fire....

Dallas is unlikely to suddenly turn it around this season, which only makes it more confusing to see 23-year-old center Nerlens Noel sitting on the bench game after game. After signing a $4.2 million qualifying offer this past summer, Noel has disappeared from Rick Carlisle’s rotation other than a few minutes in garbage time. He hasn’t played more than six minutes in a game since logging 14 in a loss to the Timberwolves on Nov....
On March 5, 2012, I met President Barack Obama in the Oval Office. Reviewing the deteriorating situation in Syria under its dictator, Bashar Assad, son of the previous dictator, Hafez Assad, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, “Apparently Bashar’s mother is telling him, ‘Your father would have done this, your father would have done that.’” “I didn’t know Bashar had a Jewish mother,” I said, and then, looking at Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, I corrected myself: “Sorry, an Italian mother....

Just when you thought 2022 NBA Free Agency may be a bit dull, Brooklyn’s superstar forward assured it will be anything but as he formally requested a trade according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania. More reports filed in shortly thereafter, with Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes saying the Suns are Durant’s preferred destination. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski added that Miami is also on Durant’s “wish list,” but the Nets hold all the leverage....
In Tuesday night's game at home against the Boston Celtics, the Brooklyn Nets' mascot attempted a one-handed trampoline dunk. But poor BrooklyKnight's attempt went miserably wrong as he launched the ball into the metal framework surrounding the shot clock. Because the high-flying fail happened during a brief intermission in the game, the game operations crew didn't have enough time to free the trapped ball so it remained wedged above the shot clock for a good portion of the game....

Some of the surgeries were allegedly performed on the wrong area of a patient’s body and may have left at least one patient paralyzed, according to the Argus Leader....
Neutrinos are fundamental particles of the universe, meaning that they are not made up of any smaller components as far as we know. Scientists have been hunting neutrinos for years, and special detectors have confirmed their presence before. It’s thought that if physicists can learn more about them, they can answer some of the most pressing questions in physics—such as why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter....
