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

Smart Call (JP van der Merwe) romps home in the J & B Met at Kenilworth

Report: South Africa, Saturday 

Kenilworth: J & B Met (Grade 1) 1m2f, turf, 3yo+

Smart Call (Alec Laird/JP van der Merwe) smashed her male opponents when winning Cape Town’s biggest race and could be seen in Britain later in the year.

Laird, who also ran his 1997 Met winner London News in Britain, said: “We are going to stick to our plan to go for the Breeders’ Cup with Smart Call and after today we’ve got the best horse in South Africa to send there.

“She will go into quarantine next month and arrive in England in June where she will be stabled at Abington Place in Newmarket. She could have prep runs there. France would also be a possibility although America might provide softer options.”

JP van der Merwe only knew he had got the ride – regular partner Weichong Marwing has a bad back – when he arrived at Cape Town airport on the morning of the race.

The 25-year-old said: “I sat behind Anton Marcus on the favourite Legal Eagle and pulled her out a furlong and a half from home. This is the biggest thrill of my career.”

The 8-1 chance beat Legal Eagle by three-and-a-half lengths with Captain America running on into third.

Justin Snaith was out of luck with Legislate and Futura but he won seven of the first nine races on the card to equal his own South African record.

Gulf Storm (Brett Crawford/Corne Orffer) got the best of a blanket finish to spring a 12-1 surprise and give his rider his first success at the top level.

Crawford, who also won this with the famous Laisserfaire in 2002, said: “We had this race planned for a long time and putting blinkers on made all the difference. I didn’t use them before because he used to overrace but, coming back to five furlongs, I felt I had to put them on. He will go to Durban and run in the Golden Horse Sprint at Scottsville in May. He was second in it last year.”

The five-year-old beat Brutal Force a head with long-time leader and 7-2 favourite Carry On Alice a neck away in third.
