  • Vance Joseph to Return As Broncos' Head Coach in 2018
    Vance Joseph to return as Broncos’ head coach in 2018 By Nicki Jhabvala Denver Post January 2, 2018 Despite a 5-11 season, eight defeats by double digits and a playoffless finish, the Broncos will retain coach Vance Joseph for next season, giving him a chance “to fix it,” just as he had hoped. Joseph met with John Elway early Monday to learn of the general manager’s decision and to mull changes to the coaching staff, which included the departure of six assistants. “Vance and I had a great talk this morning about our plan to attack this offseason and get better as a team,” Elway tweeted Monday morning. “We believe in Vance as our head coach. Together, we’ll put in the work to improve in all areas and win in 2018. “To all our fans: THANK YOU for your tremendous support and sticking with us through a tough year. This wasn’t the season anyone expected, but we’ll learn from it and be better because of it. Our 2018 season starts today.” In keeping Joseph for 2018, Elway spared the Broncos of a fourth head coaching change in five years and provided a significant cost savings. Had Joseph left, the Broncos could have had to pay the remaining salaries of most of two coaching staffs. Joseph was hired last January after the resignation of Gary Kubiak and was immediately labeled “a leader of men” because of his ability to relate to players on both sides of the ball, and to work well with fellow coaches. The Broncos had tried to bring in Joseph as defensive coordinator in 2015, but the Cincinnati Bengals refused to release him from his contract.

  • Seton Hall Sports Poll PUBLIC SAYS OBAMA a BETTER SPORTSMAN
    Seton Hall Sports Poll PUBLIC SAYS OBAMA A BETTER SPORTSMAN, WOULD BE A BETTER FOOTBALL COACH THAN ROMNEY Independent Voters Also Favor President on Both Questions S. Orange, NJ, September 28, 2012 – President Obama is seen as showing better sportsmanship than his opponent Mitt Romney, according to a poll conducted this week by the Seton Hall Sports Poll. Asked “regardless of whom you support, which candidate do you think shows better sportsmanship,” 53% said Obama, 29% said Romney, and 18% had no opinion. And while partisan politics may have affected that reading, the results from respondents who identified themselves as independent may be more telling: 58% said Obama showed better sportsmanship, 28% Romney, and 14% had no opinion. The poll was conducted among 688 randomly selected people across the country, including people on cell phones, of whom 487 said they followed sports at least somewhat. The poll has a margin of error of 3.8%; 4.5% for sports fans. The poll also found that to the question “which candidate do you think would make a better football coach,” Obama drew 48% to Romney’s 30%, and a wider margin among independents, 52% - 31%. Asked which party has more of the “win at all costs” attitude commonly associated with sports, 43% said Republicans, 36% Democrats, and among independents it was 48% to 38% for the Republicans. (The margin of error for independent voters was 5.9%). “One might expect partisan responses to these questions, so the results among independents is especially telling,” noted Rick Gentile, director of the poll, which is conducted by the Sharkey Institute.

The AAU has dedicated itself to proudly offer many different amateur sports and fitness programs available to people of all ages. Initially, the AAU was prominent as a federation for US representation in international competition. It also provided a means for athletes to prepare for the Olympic games. Upon the passing of the Amateur Sports Act of 1978, the AAU focused on the advance- ment of the organization to as many people as they could. Today, the AAU boasts over 500,000 participants and 50,000 volunteers of all ages. There are 56 Districts that comprise the organization and sanction over 34 sports programs, 250 national champi- onships, and more than 30,000 age division events annually. The AAU was established on January 1, 1888, because some members of the National Association of Amateur Athletes (NAAAA) decided that there needed to be a new or- ganization that created standards and uniformity in amateur sport. After composing a constitution and bylaws, 14 charter club members named Harry McMillan the organiza- tion’s first President. In it’s inaugural year, three sports championships were held for boxing, fencing and wrestling in New York’s Metropolitan Opera House.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 11, 2020 TITANS-COLTS SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES SIMMONS MAKING PLAYS: Defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons earned his first AFC Defensive Player of the Week award after helping to produce a pair of takeaways during last Sunday’s win against the Chicago Bears. In the third quarter, he forced a fumble that resulted in a 63-yard touchdown return by Titans cornerback Desmond King II, and he added a fumble recovery in the fourth quarter. Simmons, who also batted down a pass against the Bears, increased his totals in his second NFL season to two sacks, three passes defensed, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. In six of the seven games he has played this season—he missed one contest while on the reserve/COVID-19 list—he has either a sack, a pass defensed, a forced fumble or a fumble recovery. Simmons is one of only three NFL defensive linemen this season with a minimum of two sacks, three passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. The other two members of the group are J.J. Watt of the Houston Texans and Benson Mayowa of the Seattle Seahawks.

  • Noted Surgeon Dr. James Andrews Wants Your Young Athlete to Stay Healthy by Playing Less
    Page 1 of 8 Noted surgeon Dr. James Andrews wants your young athlete to stay healthy by playing less By Dennis Manoloff, The Plain Dealer on February 27, 2013 at 5:00 AM, updated February 27, 2013 at 9:39 AM CLEVELAND, Ohio -- James Andrews has seen enough. Enough of coaches who mean well and try hard, but who really don't know what they need to know. Enough of parents who think their son or daughter is the next superstar athlete and must be pushed and pushed and pushed. Enough of youngsters who are forced to visit him and his colleagues around the nation. Andrews has become so alarmed that he is issuing written and verbal warnings to anyone willing to read or listen. Why should the public care what Andrews thinks? Because when the "Dr." is placed in front of his name, he becomes a world-renowned orthopedic surgeon. Andrews, who has practiced medicine for nearly 40 years, is most famous for his ability to put professional athletes back together. These athletes -- notably, a who's who of quarterbacks -- have signed contracts for a combined total well north of $1 billion after his surgeries. In 2010, Andrews was the only doctor to be named among the top 40 most powerful people in the NFL by Sports Illustrated. Andrews' specialties are knees, elbows and shoulders. One of his recent patients was Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who needed the anterior cruciate ligament and lateral collateral ligament repaired in his right knee. http://blog.cleveland.com/dman/print.html?entry=/2013/02/noted_surgeon_dr_james_andrews.html 2/27/2013 Page 2 of 8 The work on athletes, while important, isn't the reason Andrews collaborated with Don Yaeger, a former associate editor at Sports Illustrated, to write, "Any Given Monday: Sports Injuries and How to Prevent Them, for Athletes, Parents and Coaches -- Based on My Life in Sports Medicine." He felt compelled to write the book, then talk about it, out of fear for the younger generation.
