Ruggs was initially facing 50+ years after being charged with:

driving under the influence of alcohol and/or controlled or prohibited substance resulting in death
driving under the influence of alcohol and/or controlled or prohibited substance resulting in death or substantial bodily harm
two counts of reckless driving resulting in death or substantial bodily harm
possession of a gun under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The Clark County DA offered a plea deal to Ruggs mainly because they were incredibly worried that a court would have suppressed the result of the blood draw and the prosecutors would have lost the felony DUI charge. Ruggs accepted the guilty plea deal, bringing those charges down to:

driving under the influence of alcohol and/or controlled or prohibited substance resulting in death
misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter.
Combined, both charges can only result in a maximum of 10 years. The judge literally cannot sentence more than 10.

#

Erik Burkhardt shares some incredible revelations of former Browns QB Johnny Manziel in The Untold Story of Johnny Football. Here are a few that pertained to the NFL.

#

Just watched the new special, there is a lot revealed about Johnny's college days but a surprising amount about his brief time in the NFL.

#

First is that Manziel was being drug tested by Burkhardt every week leading up to the NFL Combine. The night before the Combine, Manziel went to a party in the hills. His Dad faked a heart attack so he could leave the Combine early.

#

Second, the Houston Texans were going to take Manziel over Clowney, but video surfaced of him partying not long after his private workout with the team and they took him off their draft board.

#

Third, Manziel had dinner with the Browns and then partied at a hotel room with his receivers who were going to catch for him the night before a private workout and the receivers were so hungover a hungover himself Manziel threw to his agent and his lawyer. He told a reporter who covered the Aggies that he "fucking killed it" in the workout. Really.

#

Finally the second most amazing thing to me behind the fact that Johnny's family wasn't actually loaded (I know, right?!?!), Manziel's agent Burkhardt basically begged Jimmy Haslam to come back in to the first and take Johnny. Burhardt said his career was on the line. My immediate thoughts on this were holy shit it is cray how fluid the draft is, and now Haslam saying a "homeless" guy told him to draft Manziel makes a lot more sense.

#

Pretty crazy stuff and I know a lot of people won't watch here because they don't watch college football so thought I'd share.

Ohtani Is The 1st Player In MLB History To Have 10 Wins And 10 Homers In The Same Season Multiple Times

#

After tonight's performance, Ohtani has thrown 19 innings in a row without giving up a single earned run. He now has the highest OPS and seventh best ERA in baseball.

#

He's the 3rd best pitcher in the AL (in terms of ERA) and the best hitter (in terms of OPS). Truly unreal

Our 2-3-4 of Tatis, Soto, and Machado have hit .072 since the start of the Dodgers series. Hundreds of millions of dollars worth of players flat out cannot be this bad when our season is on the line.

#

Bonus stat: Xander is so bad - he only has 2 RBI’s in his last 107 at bats (Hitting in the middle of our order). The worst RBI season in MLB history was a Padres player named Enzo Hernandez in 1971 - he had 12 RBI’s in 549 at bats. Xander is one of the leagues highest paid players, and is literally pacing worse than anyone in major league history. Think of any bad player you remember in your lifetime or your parents or grandparents lifetime. Xander has literally been worse

The Angels play better with Pepsi products

#

From 1998-2016, the Angels had Pepsi products in the stadium. It was also, by far, the most successful period of Angels Baseball. 6 AL West division titles (2004, 05, 07, 08, 09, 14) 3 ALCS appearances (2002, 05, 09) and their only World Series Win (2002).

In fact, of the Angels' 10 playoff appearances, 7 of them were during the Pepsi years with the 3 others being 1979, 1982, and 1986.

Since Arte Moreno switched to Coke, the Angels have not only never made the playoffs, but had a losing record every year.

Joey Bosa, in a quest to bulk up this offseason, estimates he eats between 4,500 to 5,000 calories per day: “Eating isn’t really enjoyable these days. It’s more so just part of the job…I've been eating a ridiculous amount lately.”

#

To gain the weight, Bosa continued his usual offseason training regimen with his brother, 49ers star defensive lineman Nick Bosa, in Florida, but adding pounds required working closely with a nutritionist and maintaining close proximity to a refrigerator so that he could consume five to six meals per day and constantly snack.

“Was able to stay consistent with all the things that I normally would do,” Bosa said. “But the key to gaining weight is just to eat a lot. Eat way more than you want to. And it's no fun a lot of the time.”

Before a morning run, Bosa would drink plenty of fluids, maybe eat a little fruit. He’d follow his run with a small breakfast.

Then, the eating marathon would commence.

Five more meals with plates full of red meat, chicken or fish. A big dose of protein, some vegetables and often a version of his guilty-pleasure carbohydrates, like chickpea pasta.

And snacks. Lots of snacks -- think pretzels, nuts and fruit (But no honeydew or cantaloupe, which Bosa despises) -- often smothered in creamy peanut butter. And a smoothie.

“I'll just eat berries in the peanut butter because my chef in Florida said that the fruit, you need a fat with the fruit for it to really have its whatever benefit,” Bosa said. “So that helps with the weight gain and getting all the vitamins and stuff from the fruit.”

Gaining the weight while dripping sweat during hour-long workouts in the summer Florida humidity proved difficult, but perhaps not as hard as maintaining his weight during training camp in Southern California, where the Chargers spend about 2 ½ hours daily sweating on the practice field.

And Bosa’s fast metabolism has required that he not miss a meal. If he does, the consequence will be felt the following day when he weighs a few pounds less.

#

“The quarterback play that we have is amazing, as you can see Tua has been delivering, I feel like, all training camp, and the way that our head coach and our OC design plays for us is ridiculous,” Hill said on NFL Network. “My job is really easy; I just got to stay healthy, I just got to keep my attention to detail and just know where to be at on the field at all times for my quarterback. Then I’ll be able to make those plays to get where I want to be at, which is 2K.”

Bengals DT DJ Reader after getting into a fight with Packers LG Elgton Jenkins: "Man, he's a jag, man. I don't know that guy. No idea who he is. I mean, I see he made two Pro Bowls, so good for him, but he blocked for Aaron Rodgers. That don't make you nobody."

Titans' Terrell Williams applauds Mike Vrabel for opportunity to serve as the head coach for Saturday's preseason opener: "Hopefully more coaches will give assistant coaches opportunities to do this because there's nothing better than actually getting the experience."

#

The opportunity for Williams extends beyond game day. He will take over as the head coach starting with the Titans' team meeting Thursday night, when they'll formulate a plan for who will start at quarterback and how their game reps will be situated.

Williams will also have to devise a plan for which starters will play in the first preseason game.

The Titans are also giving associate head athletic trainer Matt Gregg an opportunity to lead the athletic training staff for the game this week, taking over for Todd Toriscelli.

Gregg met with Williams on Wednesday about the team's injuries to determine which players will be available for Saturday's game.

Williams, who has spent 12 years of his 25-year coaching career in the NFL and the rest in college football, made it clear that he'd like to be a head coach in the league. He entered the NFL as an intern through the league's minority coaching program in 1999, when he landed an opportunity with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He then had stints with the Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks.

Williams has coached the Titans' defensive line since 2018, when Vrabel became head coach. Vrabel promoted Williams to assistant head coach this past offseason.

#

The Cleveland pitching factory got brrr.

With a starting rotation of Tanner Bibee, Logan Allen, Noah Syndergaard, Gavin Williams, and Xzavion Curry, 4 of which are rookies, the Guardians pitching has been killing in the 2nd half. They are without Bieber, McKenzie, Quantrill, and Civale (traded). The rest are hurt.

Despite that best SP ERA, they are 11-11 and have already played 5, 1-run games. Their offense has been absolutely putrid.

With that, they are still only 3.5 GB of the Twins.

update: everyone this aged like milk I think since 1) it's probably Caicedo's agent that said this which has pissed off Brighton and 2) Chelsea said they were doing a new bid many hours ago

#

also 3) rumour mill running around that Chelsea is broke and can't afford this and 4) they ended talks over releasing Adams from Leeds

#

so tl;Dr; everyone stop praying for Star and maybe start praying for SB again

Morton’s command tonight was once again a joke and he was extremely lucky. If the Mets bats weren’t doing their best imitation of their incompetent brothers in the Bronx, he would have given up numerous runs.

Edit: inexplicably he went back out for 1 batter despite throwing 100 pitches through 5. He gave up another hit, so his final line has 3 hits.

In even years, Olson performs like a league average first basemen. However, in odd years Olson reaches superstar status. Despite a small plate appearance difference, Olson has 8.7 FWAR more in years ending in an odd number. Truly bizarre.

#

Since 2016, the Brewers are 83 games over .500 and 50 games over .500 in one-run games. Craig Counsell is an elite manage

#

Brewers run diff in that time period is 5132 scored vs. 4926 allowed, for a pythag winning % expectation (using 1.83 as the exponent) of 51.9%. Their actual winning % is 53.6%.

That doesn't seem like a crazy difference, but given player turnover I think the only answer can be Managerial. 2016 was Craig Counsell's first full year as manager.

On June 30th, the Seattle Mariners were 38-42 and stuck behind 7 other teams in the AL Wild Card race. In the 34 Games since, the Mariners have gone 24-10, and are now 1.5 games out of a WC spot and 5.5 games behind the AL West-leading Rangers

The Cowboys turned Dak Prescott into a Turnover Machine.

Dak Prescott led the NFL in interceptions, but it wasn’t his fault that he became a turnover machine, it was the Cowboys. The receivers were often in the wrong spots, the play calling was often predictable and ineffective, Dak became a quarterback he simply was not, and he couldn’t stop turning the ball over. So, what all went wrong? This week’s...
