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

D’Brickashaw Ferguson thanks fans in retirement letter

Kathy Willens/AP D’Brickashaw Ferguson says that a desire ‘to pursue other goals in life’ led him to retire. D’Brickashaw Ferguson formally announced his retirement Saturday morning in a letter posted on the team’s official website. The three-time Pro Bowl left tackle never missed a snap due to injury in his 10-year career. He’ll be honored in the team’s Ring of Honor one day. His thank you letter to fans, teammates, etc. is below: My Fans, As I considered the words I would say to you, I recognize a simple truth: It just isn’t easy saying goodbye.

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

Wales 1-1 Northern Ireland

On 

[ad_1]

Craig Cathcart

Media playback is not supported on this device

Northern Ireland were denied a first away friendly win in almost a decade as Wales scored a late penalty to earn a draw in their Euro 2016 warm-up.

An injury-hit Wales edged a goalless first half as David Cotterill had a free-kick saved by Michael McGovern.

Northern Ireland improved after the break and led as Craig Cathcart struck with a low shot on the turn.

The visitors defended diligently but were undone when Gareth McAuley fouled Simon Church, who converted.

Had Northern Ireland held on for victory, it would have been their first in a friendly on the road since beating Finland in August 2006.

For a Wales side without Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey, Church’s equaliser was reward for a willing – but somewhat blunt – performance which exposed their lack of strength in depth at times.

Players audition for Euros

Both managers had earmarked this fixture as an opportunity for fringe players to further their case for inclusion in their respective Euro 2016 squads.

Wales’ George Williams sparkled in his audition, as the Fulham winger – currently on loan at Gillingham – ran at opposition defenders with menace and trickery.

Queens Park Rangers striker Conor Washington made his debut for Northern Ireland but struggled to make an impression as the visitors sat back content to defend.

Away-day trouble for O’Neill’s side

It was understandable that Michael O’Neill’s side approached the game in pragmatic fashion – because they came to Cardiff with a dismal away friendly record.

O’Neill had never won a friendly on the road during his five-year reign, while the team’s run of just one goal in 17 away friendlies stretched back nine-and-a-half years.

They did not look like improving that record in a first half in which they failed to register a shot on target but they were more of a threat in the second.

Kyle Lafferty had a shot saved by debutant goalkeeper Danny Ward and, when Wales failed to clear a corner after an hour, Cathcart was on hand to swivel and score with a powerful effort.

Weakened Wales dig in

Chris Coleman<!–

Without several first-team players, Wales made five changes from November’s friendly defeat by the Netherlands.

One of those returning to the side, Birmingham midfielder Cotterill, had the game’s first chance as his firmly-struck free-kick was palmed away by Northern Ireland keeper McGovern.

He and Williams were Wales’ likeliest sources of a goal, though they struggled to turn long spells of possession into scoring opportunities.

Their chance eventually came in the 89th minute as Church was felled by McAuley in his attempt to collect a through ball.

The striker, on loan at Aberdeen from MK Dons, took the penalty himself and whipped the ball beyond McGovern to earn Wales a deserved draw.

What they said

Wales manager Chris Coleman: “There were lots of positives out of it – even if we’d come off and lost 1-0.

“They had a good mentality and attitude and I was happy with the players.”

Northern Ireland manager Michael O’Neill: “It would have been nice to win but we were able to give 17 players some game time and experiment with a couple of different systems.

“We have very limited opportunities to look at systems but the players adapted to both well.”
