Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 15:35:03 GMT

BERKELEY — Fifteen horses have now died at Golden Gate Fields racetrack so far in 2023 — a rising toll that continues to cloud the final months of operation at the Bay Area’s last standing racetrack.The latest equine fatality was on Oct. 30, when 6-year-old thoroughbred Kind Of Gallant passed away during a training session, according to records from the California Horse Racing Board’s equine fatalities database.

CCS football playoffs: Matchups are set. What are the top storylines?

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 15:35:03 GMT

NEW CCS FORMAT: HOW OPEN/DIVISION I WORKSFor years, the Central Coast Section had an Open Division designated for its best teams. Then it had three Open Divisions, dividing its presumed 24 best teams into three divisions based on enrollment. Then it scrapped the Open Division when the section went to a competitive-equity model. Now, the Open Division is back. Sort of. Following the model that the neighboring North Coast Section has used for the past two seasons, the CCS is calling its top division Open/Division I. The NCS went to the model to create a lane for a Division I school to advance to a regional without having to beat De La Salle, something nobody from the NCS has done since 1991. The CCS has added it to allow a second team from its top division to play beyond the section playoffs. Here is how it works: The No. 1 seed plays the No. 8 seed and the No. 2 seed plays the No. 7 seed in the first round. The winners meet for the Open title in the second week of the playoffs. The O...

He finished at 27-under 261, two strokes ahead of Kuchar and Camilo Villegas.Van Rooyen won for the second time on the PGA Tour.

Rypien and the Rams can’t get anything going without injured QB Stafford

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 15:35:03 GMT

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams already had a losing record even before Matthew Stafford got hurt.Their performance in rainy conditions Sunday showcased how much worse they are without their veteran Super Bowl-winning quarterback.With Stafford unavailable because of a thumb injury, the Rams failed to reach the end zone against Green Bay’s injury-riddled defense. Brett Rypien took over for Stafford and went 13 of 28 for 130 yards with two turnovers as the Rams fell 20-3 for their third straight loss.“I’m not really sure what to think right now,” Rypien said. “All I know that that was clearly not good enough.”Stafford hadn’t practiced all week after spraining a ligament in his right thumb in a 43-20 loss at Dallas. Rypien said he didn’t learn for sure that he’d be starting until Friday but had a pretty good idea beforehand because Stafford couldn’t grip the ball.Rams coach Sean McVay said after the game that Stafford is making “good progress” in his recovery. The Rams (3-6...
