Jets, Rodgers receive plenty of marquee spots as networks navigate NFL schedule process

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 15:10:02 GMT

Aaron Rodgers nearly upended the NFL schedule two years ago when he told some within the Green Bay Packers organization he didn’t want to return to the team.For the sake and sanity of those in the league’s scheduling department, cooler heads prevailed.Rodgers was on the move during this offseason with his trade to the New York Jets, but it was planned well enough in advance that the league and its network partners could get in their requests. The Jets will make six prime-time appearances and have four games in the Sunday afternoon late window (4:25 p.m. ET).“Navigating the process was largely about Aaron and his future,” Fox EVP, Head of Strategy and Analytics Mike Mulvihill said. “There’s always a lot of focus on marquee quarterbacks that could change teams. And that was certainly the case this year.”For the second straight year, ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” gets a marquee QB making his debut with another team when the Jets host the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 11.

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 15:10:02 GMT

China’s special representative on Eurasian affairs, Li Hui, will visit Ukraine, Russia and several European countries next week as part of Beijing’s bid to act as a middleman in the war in Ukraine in spite of concerns over its neutrality, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said Friday.Li, who was China’s ambassador to Moscow for a decade until 2019, will also visit France, Germany and Poland to “have communications on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis,” ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a regular press briefing. Li reportedly will be the highest-ranking Chinese diplomat to visit Ukraine since the war started.“This visit by the Chinese representative is a testament to Chinese efforts to promote peace talks and our firm commitment to peace,” Wang added.In spite of being Moscow’s top ally, Chinese President Xi Jinping has sought to position Beijing as a peace broker between Ukraine and Russia in recent months, int...

New Hampshire lab error incorrectly resulted in salad greens recall

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 15:10:02 GMT

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A laboratory error incorrectly caused a recall announcement for a brand of salad greens, the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services said.The products from lēf Farms are safe and the recall has been canceled, the department said in a news release Thursday.The May 5 recall notice regarded a “potential” E. coli bacteria contamination of a specific lot of the company’s “Spice” packaged salad greens. When it heard the news, the Loudon-based hydroponics company voluntarily initiated a recall of potentially affected products, the department said.The recall notice was directed at Hannaford and Market Basket supermarkets in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont.Further analysis determined “the control sample and the lēf Farms sample were nearly identical, indicating that the initial lab results were inaccurate due to a contamination error within the lab itself,” the department said.“I wish to apologize to lēf Farms, ...

Miguel Amaya gives the Chicago Cubs a glimpse of their future at catcher: ‘He has the talent to do whatever he wants to do’

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 15:10:02 GMT

Chicago Cubs left-hander Justin Steele detoured from his locker when he entered the visitors clubhouse at Nationals Park last week with a destination in mind.Across the room, Steele found Miguel Amaya and approached the young catcher with a brief message, complimenting the 24-year-old’s performance during their pregame bullpen. Amaya hadn’t played above Double-A Tennessee when the Cubs promoted him to fill in while Yan Gomes was sidelined on the seven-day concussion injured list. Tommy John surgery and a Lisfranc injury sidelined him for most of the previous two seasons. Since 2020, Amaya had started only 32 minor-league games before earning his first big-league call-up.He appeared in six Cubs games, starting four at catcher.“He’s an unbelievable player, unbelievable person,” Steele said. “I’ve had the pleasure of meeting his family, just beautiful people inside and out. I really know Amaya as a person. I know he’s a great kid. He̵...

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 15:10:02 GMT

The 2023 Chicago Bears schedule is set. Season opener against the rival Green Bay Packers. Season finale? Against the Packers. Sandwiched in between are 15 games that will determine the direction and momentum of the team’s resurgence effort. The Bears will play a pair of Thursday night games for the first time — in Weeks 5 and 10 — and have four prime-time games in all.Here’s how our trio of Bears reporters sees the season playing out.Week 1: Bears vs. Green Bay PackersSunday, Sept. 10, 3:25 p.m., Fox-32Great news! Sources have confirmed to the Tribune that Jordan Love doesn’t own anything in or around downtown Chicago. The law of averages also suggests the Packers’ new QB1 couldn’t possibly emerge as one of the league’s top stars for the next decade or longer. So maybe Bears fans can breathe a sigh of relief. And perhaps this rivalry will become legitimately competitive again.Tribune picksBrad Biggs: PackersColleen Kane: BearsDan Wied...
