Fangio had been released from his contract with the San Francisco 49ers after the team promoted Jim Tomsula to head coach. Fangio had hoped to land the 49ers' head coaching job, and reportedly made his intentions known he did not want to stay in any other capacity. During Fangio's last four years as defensive coordinator of the 49ers, the club ranked in the top 10 in points and yards. In Fangio's first three seasons in San Francisco (2011-13), the 49ers were the only team in the NFL to finish in the top five in points allowed (16.1 points per game), run defense (89.1-yard average), rushing average (3.7), first downs allowed (835), opponent quarterback rating (76), yards allowed (306.5 yards per game), plays for gains of 20-plus yards (147), takeaways (93) and third-down defense (34.1 percent conversion rate).

No reports have explained how or why the 5-year-old shot his sibling, but authorities say that the gun, a .22 magnum revolver, was found near where the baby had been sleeping. A neighbor says that the family, which remains unnamed, is "very good", that they got a "sad deal" and that "everyone should pray for them." The neighbor took the three children who were not injured to her home while police attended to the killed infant. 9-Month-Old Dead After 5-Year-Old Brother Shoots Him in the Head

After 65 years of saving, an 81-year-old Slaton man has deposited $816 worth of pennies at Prosperity Bank. Ira Keys hasn't spent a penny since he was 17 years old, because of advice his father gave him. "He says, 'Whatever you do son, save your money,'" Keys said. "Back when I started in '52, I didn't have a lot of money, so I saved pennies and I just kept saving them." The collection weighed in at about 500 pounds. "I like to have broke the springs on that little-ole pickup," Keys said. Slaton man deposits 500 pounds of pennies - NBC12 - WWBT - Richmond, VA News On Your Side

Free-agent pitcher Max Scherzer has agreed to a seven-year contract with the Washington Nationals, The Washington Post and CBS have reported. A source had earlier told ESPN.com's Jayson Stark that the Nationals wouldn't have the financial flexibility to sign the right-handed Scherzer unless they have a trade in place to move starter Jordan Zimmermann and possibly shortstop Ian Desmond. As of Saturday, the source told Stark, the Nationals did not have trades in place for Zimmermann or Desmond. Max Scherzer closing in on new multiyear contract - ESPN

Once I heard about the long history between he and Elway, this isn't a surprise. I didn't realize til the Patriots/Ravens playoff game the difference he made with that offense in just one year.

Yep, like a few people have said, there were several moments in the game that led to that point. BUT that's what people are going to remember. Just unbelievable.

I say Patriots get the elusive 4th, unless Seahawks find a way to sign Eli in next 2 weeks.

Dome teams don't win on the road (outside) in playoffs, except that one guy who just kept running to Leavenworth.

There are always a handful of times a year when we revisit the classic phrase, "Just when you think you had seen everything" My goodness gracious.

I was a big fan of the movie Predator, so it doesn't really bother me. :lol2:

Been a Bears fan my whole life, this is the best option they could hope for. I don't know what in the heck is going to happen next year, I don't have high hopes, goodness knows can't be any worse than this year.

SMU has received a Notice of Allegations from the NCAA that includes accusations of academic improprieties within Larry Brown's men's basketball program, multiple sources told ESPN. Sources told ESPN that SMU has received the Notice of Allegations and is expected to meet with the NCAA's Committee of Infractions later this year. One of the allegations involves sophomore Keith Frazier's academics, as issues began when he was attempting to become eligible prior to his arrival at SMU, according to a source familiar with the allegations. Sources told ESPN that assistant coach Ulric Maligi's involvement with Frazier before the player enrolled in SMU has been under investigation. The school announced Jan. 13 that Maligi has taken a leave of absence for personal reasons. Frazier, a McDonald's All-American out of Kimball High School in Dallas, had difficulty meeting the NCAA's eligibility standards to get into SMU. Earlier Friday, sources told ESPN the 6-foot-5 sophomore will be ruled ineligible for the remainder of the season, pending a ruling on his final appeal filed this week, due to his current academic standing.

That's reaction I get when I tell them, a high school gym that can nearly seat 5,000. One of, if not, the biggest high school gym in state.

Spent a lot of time at Fieldhouse from 2006-2011, so many great memories. The last game I went to was the Pendleton/Mason region game from 2011, still upset about all that loss, but I digress. So before the game, I go to the scorers table, I can't even remember why. So was talking to someone, mentioned my user name on here "homeless camel" and Mike Murphy's name comes up. Whoever I was talking to, said yeah, Mike was there at the table one time, pointed in my direction since I always sat in same spot for games. He said, yeah, that guy over there is homeless camel off BGP. I was so moved by that, I don't think I had ever met him. So I have some special memories from great teams I saw play in that 5 years, but that really touched me knowing how many people read/post on this place. I just wish I had my old post count, I think I was near 10,000 all those years ago. :lol2:

Can't really remember, I'm sure there is plenty, but wrapped up enough in film to not notice it or just write it off as expected under circumstances.

There are quite a few hardcore scenes showing shooting deaths with gore. So while it doesn't dominate the movie, it is prevalent enough.

Yes, their exchange on tarmac and Bradley's reaction to his comment before he got on the plane was powerful.
