Jets star Brandon Marshall wins civil assault suit

Mark Lennihan/AP Brandon Marshall left the courthouse once the case went to the jury and did not return, so he was not in the room when the verdict was read. Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall won the civil suit levied against him by a California woman in Manhattan federal court for assault and battery on Friday. Christin Myles, who accused Marshall of punching her in the face outside the Marquee nightclub on Mar. 11, 2012, sought at least $75,000 in damages for her medical expenses and her pain and suffering. The jury deliberated for just over an hour before

Myers: Ferguson leaving money, saving health in retirement

Maddie Meyer/Getty Images While he spoke candidly about concussions in December, D’Brickashaw Ferguson was never diagnosed with one in his 10-year career. D’Brickashaw Ferguson is 32 years old and played 10 years in the NFL and the only snap he missed in his career came on a trick play. So, he is not part of the epidemic of young players in the last two years who are getting out of the NFL early rather than risk brain injury, even though it’s before they max out on their earnings potential. Ferguson made $67 million with the Jets and never was

Jets trade for Broncos' Ryan Clady to replace D’Brickashaw

Kathy Willens/AP Broncos offensive lineman Ryan Clady blocks for Knowshon Moreno. That was fast. On the same day D’Brickashaw Ferguson made his retirement official, the Jets traded for his replacement, dealing for former Broncos tackle Ryan Clady, according to a source. Gang Green is giving up a 2016 fifth-round pick in exchange for the tackle and will also receive a 2016 seventh-rounder, according to a source. Those are the same terms the Jets struck with the Bears a year ago in a deal for wide receiver Brandon Marshall. Clady, a four-time Pro Bowler, started 16 games in 2014 for

Advocate blasts Greg Hardy’s clueless, harmful stance

Ric Tapia/AP Greg Hardy denies ever assaulting women in an interview he did with ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Domestic violence experts responded with dismay Tuesday to disgraced football star Greg Hardy’s claim in an ESPN interview that violence against women is “nonexistent in most southern homes.” “Domestic violence does not discriminate, it impacts every race, geographic region, educational background,” Katie Ray-Jones, the CEO of the National Domestic Violence Hotline, tells the Daily News. “It knows no boundaries. It’s a reg resilient issue that people don’t talk about.” Hardy, who was suspended four games last season over evidence that he battered

Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Don Cossack parades on Saturday

CHELTENHAM Gold Cup-winning trainer Gordon Elliott was still trying to come to terms with Friday’s big-race success as Gold Cup winner Don Cossack returned to a hero’s welcome on Saturday evening.

Elliott described the day after the night before as “a bit of a daze” as he paraded Don Cossack through his home town of Summerhill near his Capranny stables in County Meath, where the well-wishers included winning rider Bryan Cooper.

“It’s been an amazing 24 hours,” said Elliott, who struck gold with his first ever runner in the Cheltenham Festival highlight. “The horse is taking it all well but I’m a bit in a daze today.”

Despite going on to success at Aintree and Punchestown after running at last year’s festival, Elliott reiterated that Aintree was not on the agenda after Friday’s heroics, where he beat last year’s Gold Cup runner-up Djakadam by four and a half lengths.

The trainer added: “We won’t be going to Aintree again and fair play to the horse for doing what he did last year.”

Ground made up Cooper’s mind

Cooper, who agonised over his decision to ride Don Cossack over last year’s RSA Chase winner and eventual third Don Poli, explained why he opted for Don Cossack in the end.

“It’s rare things work out as well as that,” said Cooper. “On good ground, he is basically able to get into a jumping rhythm, and he’s a different horse. Choosing between him and Don Poli was tough, but the ground made my mind up.”

Don Cossack heads the market for a repeat win in the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup in 2017, priced between 5-2 and 6-1 to land back-to-back wins.
