According to Troy Vincent, VP of football operations for the NFL, the league plans on hiring up to 17 full-time officials before the start of next season.

But before the NFL can begin the process of hiring full-time refs, they need to get approval from the NFL Referee’s Association....

A warning to anyone reading this who might be thinking about dropping a few million on any ultra-rare sports cars – be sure to have some extra coin stored away, because the purchase might end up embroiling you in a protracted and expensive legal battle over ownership of the car. It might seem silly, but it seems like Les Wexner, the billionaire CEO of L Brands (a conglomerate that counts Victoria’s Secret among its many holdings) might have appreciated it before he dropped about $16....
A number of spouses, always women, have received multi-million dollar payouts – sometimes as much as 50% of their husband’s assets by taking advantage of a court system that allows a judge a huge amount of discretion.

Since returning to Cleveland, LeBron has signed a series of two-year contracts with a player option for the second year, effectively allowing him to opt out and re-sign every year. That gives him more money since the salary cap keeps increasing. This off-season, LeBron was a bit more committal, signing a three-year, $99 million contract with the ability to opt out in 2018....
Of course, it’s silly to blame disappointments on one player in a team sport, but that’s what Romo faced. It’s certainly not very fair, since he has put up solid numbers over his career. He’s thrown for nearly 35,000 yards, has a better than 2:1 touchdown to interception ratio, sports a 97.1 career quarterback rating, and has put together a 78-49 regular season record. Since becoming a starter in 2006, he’s had a higher passer rating in the fourth quarter than any other quarterback in the league....

Shkreli bought the album for $2 million from the Wu-Tang Clan in 2015, the same year he was convicted of securities fraud. The album was eventually seized and sold off by US authorities following Shkreli’s conviction, this time getting $4.75 million from a crypto NFT collective called PleasrDAO at the auction block in 2017. Then, earlier this year, PleasrDAO filed suit against Shkreli, alleging he still owned copies of the record and had even streamed part of the album during an online “Wu-Tang Official Listening Party” after his release from prison in 2022....
