A civil court jury has found UFC fighter Conor McGregor guilty of assaulting a woman in a Dublin, Ireland hotel in 2018, during a sexual encounter.  The court determined that the former UFC star should pay over $250,000 in damages.
The Ireland jury came to their guilty verdict after deliberating for a little over 6 hours.
McGregor had previously told the court that he had consensual sex with the woman that the UFC fighter described as “athletic and vigorous, but not rough.” His lawyers have since claimed that the woman was trying to extort the UFC fighter.

Longstreet, a native of Southern California, was originally committed to play at Texas A&M.
When it comes to the USC Trojans, the biggest talking point during the 2024 season has been quarterback play, as Lincoln Riley’s crew started the year with redshirt junior Miller Moss at the helm before recently making a change to UNLV transfer Jayden Maiava to end the year.

Minnesota Wild forward Mats Zuccarello avoided a major, and I mean major, scare.
In the first period of a game against the Montreal Canadiens on November 14, Zuccarello was trying to set a screen in front of the opposing goalie when defenseman Brock Faber took a shot from the point. Unfortunately, Faber’s speedy shot hit Zuccarello right in the batteries.
That just hurts to watch.
Being the up-to-date hockey expert he is, OutKick’s Matt Reigle broke the news for us that Zuccarello would be out indefinitely – and I can’t blame the guy.

This was predictable and the best result for everyone. The relationship between Daniel Jones and the New York Giants ended on Friday when he was released at his request, a move that allows him to escape a bad team that no longer valued him.
Jones, 27, will go through the NFL waiver system and if he’s not claimed by another team, he will become a free agent — free to sign with whatever team he wishes, even for the remainder of this season. 
So Jones, it can be said, has been released unharmed.

UFC president Dana White makes a living off running a sports league predicated on men and women fighting each other. But now he knows that UFC is not the only place where the fighting gets rough.
In an interview with the New Yorker over the past weekend, White discussed his brief involvement in politics over this past election cycle. White endorsed president-elect Donald Trump at a campaign rally at the Madison Square Garden in October, and that appears to be his last involvement in the political sphere.
“I’m never f—ing doing this again,” he said.

Rex Ryan’s resume says he was a middling NFL head coach but an elite entertainer, so this week he’s providing some great entertainment as he’s trying to get back to being a middling coach.
During his weekly appearance on 98.7 ESPN New York this week, Ryan brought up his desire to coach the New York Jets. Again. Without being asked.
Ryan was discussing Dan Campbell’s impact on the Detroit Lions when he unexpectedly started making his case for returning to the team he coached to a 50-52 record (including playoffs) from 2009 to 2014.

The Giants cut Daniel Jones, and now have to live with a huge mistake for the franchise.
On Thursday following practice, benched quarterback Daniel Jones stood in front of the New York Giants media, called playing for the organization “a dream come true” and said that he was “100 percent accountable” for his role in New York getting off to a 2-8 start.
On Friday Jones asked for, and was granted, his release from the team.

The Giants are granting Daniel Jones’ request to be released, saying the sides mutually agreed that it “would be best for him and for the team” to move on.
