The on-again and off-again aggravated menacing charge against Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is history following a not guilty verdict at the culmination of a four-day trial.
Judge Gwen Bender ruled in favor of Mixon Thursday morning. Mixon was found not guilty of the misdemeanor charge.
Mixon was accused of brandishing a gun in the presence of his accuser during an alleged road rage incident. Police originally charged Mixon then pulled those charges before charging him again, saying they needed time for further investigation.

The New York Yankees’ bats have been silenced this week (and also for most of the season), with Braves pitching shutting them out in back-to-back games and the Bronx Bombers not even mustering an extra-base hit in either game. 
One at-bat by Yankees star Aaron Judge in Wednesday night’s game was particularly emblematic of the team’s struggles.
Judge, one of the few bright spots in a slumping Yankees lineup, was struck out by Braves right-hander Charlie Morton. All three were knuckle curves that positively baffled the Yankees slugger, with one even making Judge drop to one knee.

Bengals running back Joe Mixon was found not guilty Thursday of a misdemeanor charge of aggravated menacing stemming from a January road rage incident.
Mixon’s aggravated menacing charge came after he was alleged to have pointed a gun at a woman, saying, “You should be popped in the face. I should shoot you now. The police can’t get me,” per Fox 19 Now in Cincinnati.
After the trial played out in court over four days, Mixon was found not guilty, but it is unclear whether he will be levied any discipline from the NFL in connection with the personal conduct policy.

The USWNT is in search of a new head coach after mutually parting ways with Vlatko Andonovski following the team’s woeful performance in the 2023 Women’s World Cup. Jill Ellis, the former USWNT coach Andonovski took over for, believes it’s incredibly important for the coaching search to be “diverse.”
Ellis using the buzzword ‘diverse’ while talking about a hiring process comes as no surprise. After all, we’re living in the year 2023 and talking about a manager that would be coaching the most-liberal sports team on planet Earth.
