Broncos WRs Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick have rarely shared the field together. They hope that story changes in 2023.

The middle of the field was easy money for Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton and quarterback Russell Wilson during minicamp on Tuesday. Sutton would hit a slant route before catching a pass from Wilson for a nice gain.While Wilson and Sutton showcased their chemistry, Jeudy made cornerback Riley Moss aware that he’s one of the best route-runners in the game. Jeudy gave the rookie his “welcome to the league” moment by turning him around before cutting back to make a catch.Moss didn’t stand a chance.Wideout Tim Patrick didn’t let a large knee brace slow him down. He glided across the field, catching passes from Wilson, looking a bit like his old self.It’s best to avoid overreacting to offseason programs when players are running around in shorts and nobody is getting hit. But the Broncos’ three-day minicamp at least provided a tiny glimpse of what the offense could look like when their top three wide receivers are healthy.“I love to see those guys on the field together,” first-yea...

Opinion: Nation needs cameras in the courtroom during Trump’s trial

Published Wed, 25 Dec 2024 07:01:16 GMT

The country is living through history with the first-ever federal indictment of a former president. A grand jury charged Donald Trump with 37 federal counts, ranging from the willful retention of national defense information to obstruction of justice. Given the unprecedented situation the nation is witnessing, it only reinforces why we must cover it in the right way.At its core, what the federal indictment shows is that a former president thought he was above the law. Recorded conversations between Trump and his lawyers reveal that he knowingly kept classified information and failed to turn it over when asked. The indictment sends a message to the country that no one — even the former president — can escape justice and accountability.What happens next is arguably more important, though. Now that Trump has been arraigned at a federal courthouse in Miami and pleaded not guilty, the federal judge overseeing the case, Aileen Cannon, will begin the trial process in which witnesses will b...

Stanford’s third consecutive trip to Omaha for the men’s College World Series gets underway today.While the No. 8 seeded Cardinal surely is hoping to improve on its results from the last two trips, its opening opponent Wake Forest is quite the fearsome foe.Wake Forest was the easy choice as the No. 1 team in the country heading into the NCAA Tournament and the Demon Deacons have played like it on their way to Omaha.In winning all regional and super regional games, the Demon Deacons won by a combined score of 75-16 and hit 19 home runs, including nine in a 22-5 win over Alabama to clinch their MCWS spot last Sunday.But it’s not just the offense.

Childhood neighbors ready to sell home but buyer doesn’t want to break the bank with high interest rates

Published Wed, 25 Dec 2024 07:01:16 GMT

Q: We are waiting for interest rates to go down before we purchase a home. We have a property in mind. However, on last night’s news, the report said two more interest rate hikes would occur this year.My parents’ longtime neighbors have passed away. Their home was in a trust. The kids I grew up with have inherited the property. The eldest two adult kids now supervise the estate. These co-successor trustees have agreed to sell their family home to us. All adult siblings agree. They know we are waiting for interest rate improvement. But next year’s lower interest rate is too far away. One of the adult siblings wants a quick sale. Since Bay Area home prices are so high, the slightest interest rate change can help or hurt. How can we keep a “hold” on this Silicon Valley property near my parents without breaking the bank? A: We are in a historic housing-constrained market. The common belief is that lower mortgage rates mean more properties for sale. That is only sometimes true. Lowe...
