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

Willie Mullins - Cheltenham - 12/3/2012

Willie Mullins: off the mark with his four British runners on Saturday

AFTER weeks of uninterrupted dominance on both sides of the Irish Sea, the Willie Mullins bangwagon came to a halt in Britain on Saturday, leading bookies to move away from some of the more outlandish targets mooted for Ireland’s champion trainer at the Cheltenham Festival.

Shaneshill, Morning Run and Up For Review at Doncaster, as well as erstwhile Gold Cup favourite Djakadam at Cheltenham, all failed to deliver what was expected of them on a day in which British trainers struck back against the previously irresistible forces from County Carlow.

After racing, Coral announced that Mullins was now 7-4 (from 3-1) to train fewer than six winners at the festival, while lengthening the odds on ten or more to 11-4 (from 7-4)

Spokesman Simon Clare said: “Willie Mullins still has an incredibly strong hand at the festival in six weeks’ time but at least his rival trainers can take some encouragement from the events of today, as all four of his raiders met defeat in Britain.”

Betfair went further, easing Mullins for the British trainers’ championship. From 10-11, he is now 11-10, with Paul Nicholls regaining odds-on favouritism that he has held for most of the season.

Spokesman Barry Orr said: “Today’s results show that the Mullins camp is not infallible after all and it will take a considerable effort for him to land a first UK trainers’ title.”

Not all firms were so quick to react. On Saturday evening, Hills were still offering 12-1 about a Mullins clean sweep of the championship races, despite Djakadam’s fall and Thistlecrack tightening his grip on the World Hurdle, and he remains odds-on for the British trainers’ title away from Betfair.

There was one bright moment on an unusually quiet Saturday for Mullins, however, as Limini cruised to an 11 length Grade 3 win at Fairyhouse. She is now a best-priced 5-4 favourite for the festival’s new mares’ novice hurdle.

Wiltshire surge

Alan King seemed to have borrowed Mullins’ wings for the day on Saturday, enjoying what virtually amounted to cross-card domination. He took the feature SkyBet Chase at Doncaster with Ziga Boy, but more significant was his treble that ran through the middle of Cheltenham’s Festival Trials Day card.

Smad Place, Annacotty and Yanworth all announced themselves as contenders for Grade 1 prizes at Cheltenham. Smad Place is as short as 8-1 for the Gold Cup and 5s for the Ryanair (although as big as 16-1 and 10-1 respectively), while Annacotty was cut to 20-1 for the latter race by bet365 and Paddy Power.

Speaking after Smad Place’s win, King remained unsure on that horse’s target: “If I was confused before, I’m even more confused now!

“He blew me away in the Hennessy and he blew me away a little today, too.”

Yanworth now looks most likely to deliver King a Cheltenham winner and lock Mullins out of a clean sweep of the novice hurdle prizes. He did not come off the bridle in the Neptune Investment Management Novices’ Hurdle and is now best-priced 3-1 for the race at the festival which bears the same title.
