ENT-Books-Wes Moore

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore to release book ‘Repair’ on healing a divided nation

SUMMARY: Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is releasing a new book next year. “Repair: Healing a Divided Nation” will be published on March 9. The book offers an “honest assessment” of the country and a “path forward that leaves no one behind.” Maryland's first Black governor was reelected in a landslide last week. He says the book documents stories from his life and service and aims to spark honest dialogue. Although Moore says he won't run in 2028, policy books are common for potential White House candidates. Moore is already an established author.

US--Election 2026-National Popular Vote

Democrats have gained control in more states. That could change the way the US elects its president

SUMMARY: Last week's big Democratic wins could change the way the U.S. elects its president. That's because Democrats picked up unified control of six more states. Eighteen states run by Democrats have already joined an interstate compact to award their Electoral College votes to whichever presidential candidate wins the national popular vote. Just a few more states would push that number above the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency. There will most likely be legal challenges that could only be settled by the Supreme Court, and it's unclear whether the governors in all the states newly under Democratic control are on board with the compact.

HKO--Russia-Ovechkin

Alex Ovechkin says Russians want to play for their country, doesn't weigh in on CAS decision

SUMMARY: Alex Ovechkin said athletes from Russia just want to represent their country. But the Washington Capitals’ captain and NHL career goal-scoring leader declined to weigh in on the decision to allow his home nation back into international hockey tournaments. The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled late last month that Russia must be reinstated by the International Ice Hockey Federation. Ovechkin said Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's decision to keep Russia out of the upcoming world junior championship was Carney's decision. Ovechkin denied being used by Russia as propaganda to garner support for the war in Ukraine.

FBN--Commanders-Allegretti

Commanders' Allegretti set to return at center for Thursday night matchup at Giants

SUMMARY: Washington Commanders offensive lineman Nick Allegretti is set to take over at center once again this Thursday against the New York Giants. And it’s been a challenge for him to get back into the lineup. He opened the season at center and played every offensive snap for the first three games despite dealing with a calf injury throughout training camp. He was then benched for Lucas Patrick for the team’s game against the Colts on Oct. 4. But with Patrick in concussion protocol, Allegretti will return to the lineup for Thursday’s game against New York.

Big hit by Capitals' Jakob Chychrun on Senators' Nick Cousins deemed to be clean after review

SUMMARY: The thunderous hit by Washington Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun that injured Ottawa Senators forward Nick Cousins late in their game Tuesday night was determined not to be a penalty after on-ice officials reviewed the play.

Greg Schiano returning next season at Rutgers despite 2-7 record this year

SUMMARY: Rutgers says football coach Greg Schiano is returning next year despite back-to-back losing seasons. Rutgers is 2-7 and will miss out on a bowl bid for the second straight season. The Scarlet Knights have lost 12 of their last 15 Big Ten Conference games. Schiano is 101-115 and in his 18th season at Rutgers, making him the winningest coach in program history. He also is the highest-paid state employee in New Jersey, earning $6.75 million.

GLF--LIV-Bankruptcy

LIV Golf files bankruptcy plan and sets sight on January liquidation

SUMMARY: LIV Golf has filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan in New Jersey aiming to liquidate its operations. The league filed for bankruptcy on Sept. 8 after the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia decided to stop funding LIV following the 2026 season. The restructuring agreement with BC Partners Credit, which pledged $300 million, failed due to lack of support. LIV Golf has operated at a loss and laid off 289 employees before filing for bankruptcy. A hearing is set for Nov. 24 to conditionally approve the disclosure statement, with a final hearing scheduled for Jan. 7.

FBN--Giants-Reese and the Defense

Giants defense is buzzing under coordinator Dennard Wilson. Arvell Reese is a big piece of that

SUMMARY: From blitzing opposing quarterbacks to figuring out how to stop the run, defense is a big reason why the New York Giants are alone in first place in the NFC East. Under first-year defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, they statistically have the fifth-best unit in the NFL after ranking 28th out of 32 teams last season. Linebacker Arvell Reese is the front-runner for Defensive Rookie of the Year honors after sacking Philadelphia’s Joe Milton three times, including a forced fumble in a 19-11 victory at the Eagles on Sunday. The rebuilt secondary also deserves credit.

FBN--Bengals-Scuttled Trade

Bengals back out of trade with Eagles to protect a 2027 compensatory draft pick

SUMMARY: The Cincinnati Bengals backed out of a trade for Philadelphia Eagles edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie because it would have resulted in the loss of a third-round compensatory pick in the 2027 NFL draft. The potential roadblock was first unearthed on social media by Over the Cap’s Nick Korte after NFL Network reported the trade was in the works. Teams receive compensatory picks when they lose more qualifying free agents than they sign. Ebiketie’s acquisition would have given the Bengals four qualifying free agents lost and four gained. The Bengals are in line to receive a third-round compensatory pick after Trey Hendrickson signed with the Baltimore Ravens.

SUMMARY: SMU quarterback Kevin Jennings is a rarity in the ACC. He's going to finish his college career where it started. Jennings plays his final home game Saturday when the No. 25 Mustangs host No. 11 Wake Forest. In this transfer portal era when players are constantly on the move, Jennings is one of only four current starting quarterbacks in the 17-team ACC still at his initial school. This is at least the third college stop for six ACC quarterbacks. That includes Darian Mensah for No. 5 Miami and Gio Lopez for No. 11 Wake Forest. Both started for different ACC teams last season.
