Sports column: Like Hamlin, Vicksburg's Martin is a medical miracle (Vicksburg Post)

South Alabama defensive back Marvin Martin, a Vicksburg native, throws a football during a physical therapy session at Methodist Rehabilitation Center in ...

Martin, on the other hand, is only a college sophomore. Still, if the Bills have any sort of heart or business sense, he should have some sort of job for life within the organization. All of the first responders, doctors and physical therapists who worked with them deserve a round of applause and thank yous. He collapsed and had to be resuscitated on the field. Two months after his injury he was able to walk out of Methodist Rehabilitation Center in Jackson under his own power. Amazingly, 10 days later he walked out of the hospital on his own.

Hanging up the jersey: What happens when God calls an athlete ... (Catholic News Agency)

Two prominent Catholic speakers, both of whom had successful athletic careers before embracing vocations, spoke to CNA this month SEEK23 in St. Louis.

He holds a Master’s Degree from the University of Missouri School of Journalism and has worked as a writer, as a producer for public radio, and as a videographer. Hilgenbrinck started to hear and respond to God’s call to become a priest when he realized the various “jerseys” that he wore throughout his life weren’t bringing him the fulfillment he truly desired. And if we don’t know the answer to that question, and if we’re not training for that answer, then we’ve probably gone too far.” And they do that every day and then they play in games, and the discipline that it takes; realizing that a team is bigger than me, sacrificing for teammates, for the team or for the win, putting myself last so that the team can be first, losing with great class, winning with great humility. “[But] if sports are taking the place of God and our life and of our virtue and are distracting us … There are so many parallels between the spiritual life and what it takes to be excellent in a sport,” she noted. We provide news about the Church and the world, as seen through the teachings of the Catholic Church. And I mean, yeah, those things are going to affect us, but they will pierce our identity if our identity’s not in Christ.” I’ve had so many times in religious life where I’d had memories of being on the volleyball court and pushing through.” “And those were all my friends and those were the people I hung out with and that’s what I did every day. For example, being physically active is good for everyone, and developing the skills of determination and teamwork are very positive and important things, she said. Only a small fraction of all athletes will play their sport at the collegiate level, and far fewer will make their chosen sport a career.

Imagine the robot coach takes a time out and diagrams the play courtesy of AI. In baseball the biggest decisions we see are when to yank a pitcher and which reliever to bring in, or when to pinch hit and who to call on. With advanced AI, you don’t need a general manager to make decisions based on scouting reports or intuition to make the trade, the data will let you know the player that best fits the system. The implications of all this is that in the future with advance machine learning is daunting. The basic premise of Money Ball was that statistical analysis, such as slugging percentage and on base percentage, was a more effective way to predict success that the business intuition of baseball insiders comprised of scouts and managers. The reason is that predicting future outcomes are essential to everything in sports.

Lou Ferrigno began his professional career as a bodybuilder in the International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness's Mr. He developed a successful acting career from there, appearing in films like "Predator" and "Happy Gilmore."

How to make sports more eco-friendly | Tips & strategies for a ... (KreedOn)

By simply adopting new production methods that adhere to some eco-friendly practices, the sporting goods industry has attracted a.

This is one of the best ways to promote an eco-friendly environment in sports. If your stadium is easily accessible, you could advertise it as a “public transportation stadium” to encourage fans to take trains and buses rather than drive on game days. Invite them to host a team-sponsored lesson on climate change or other related topics. Serving food from local producers to your customers ensures a product of higher quality and freshness that helps the economy of your city, town, or village. It is faster, more effective, and better for the environment to send fans scannable QR codes. That is equivalent to traveling 220 miles by car. When the halftime whistle sounds, what do most of your fans do first? However, attendees are informed of what to anticipate by communicating your recycling strategy via social media, your website, and even on your tickets. On matchday, you could also offer fans to return their cups to the bar for refills to reduce waste. The sport has a tremendous power of influence due to the values it promotes and its widespread popularity. Nearly half of the plastics produced have been made in the last fifteen years. A sports brand must use more natural raw materials and offer high-quality products to demonstrate support and assistance in sustainability.

Fox Sports Could Be Focus of FIFA Trial in Brooklyn (The New York Times)

Two former executives are accused of paying bribes to obtain broadcast rights, including for the World Cup. Testimony could reveal what the company knew.

Four years later, FIFA announced it had also awarded Fox rights to the incredibly lucrative 2026 World Cup, to be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico, [without so much as giving ESPN a chance to bid](https://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/27/sports/soccer/why-fifa-made-deal-with-fox-for-2026-cup.html). Rights to the event had been held by ESPN since the 1994 edition of the tournament, but in 2011, Prosecutors have accused them of running a scheme to pay bribes to “advance the interests of Fox” and help the company secure television broadcast rights to both the popular Copa Libertadores, the South American club championship, and the World Cup. Lawyers for all three defendants declined to discuss the case, as did a spokesman for the U.S. If convicted, it could join a short and ignominious list of corporations found guilty of felonies in the United States, among them banks, energy companies and According to the “This case involves a legacy business that has no connection to the new Fox Corporation,” a spokesman for the company said in a statement. Once more, prosecutors are expected to focus on the same tournaments and to rely on many of the same witnesses. Once more, the defendants stand accused of being involved in complex schemes to pay millions of dollars in exchange for the rights to matches. If found guilty, López and Martínez face up to 20 years in prison. Gianni Infantino, the current FIFA president, has repeatedly made the claim that the organization he leads is now free of corruption.

Stephen A. Smith Battled Dyslexia, Became Passionate Voice in ... (Rolling Stone)

In an exclusive excerpt from his new book 'Straight Shooter,' Smith reveals struggles growing up and how he worked hard to earn his father's respect.

I was put- ting myself in the lion’s den that was him, to help me sharpen myself and everything that I wanted to be. And I had a passion for what I was learning, because it was sports. The result: as I approached my sixteenth birthday, my father wanted to talk to me more, not less, and I wanted to listen more so that I could respond. It made me grow and feel more confident in verbalizing what I had studied and learned, which was incredibly important, because now the possibility of a college education was no longer merely a fantasy. The more I practiced, the better I got, until I was one of the best players in the neighborhood. But instead, I embraced the challenge of simply being around him, inhaling and dissecting what he said about me, and then figuring out ways to make those unforgettable words he once said to my mother as meaningless to me as possible. The more I read, the more I felt compelled to read, elevating my knowledge and adding substance to whatever came out of my mouth. I went there to get away from doing homework, to get away from my sisters’ telling me what to do, to get away from Mommy throwing chores at me, to get away from my father getting away from us. While my father, my sisters, and others watched the games for the sheer enjoyment, I appreciated the commentary just as much as the action on the court or field. I was hiding from the world, too ashamed to show my face to anybody. And as I became more comfortable reading and writing, I gained more and more confidence. When I was left back the first time, in third grade, a stint in summer school was enough to get me moved up in September.
