MIRAMAR BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Two women have now been accused of throwing drinks at U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz.The most recent was Saturday, when Selena Chambers, 41, of Tallahassee, threw a glass of wine at the Republican congressman during an event in Miramar Beach and shouted obscenities at him, the Walton County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post.“We cannot allow an environment where you can throw things at elected officials because you don’t like them,” Sheriff Michael Adkinson said in a statement. “No matter your political affiliation, this is not the way to conduct yourself and will not be tolerated in Walton County.”Miramar Beach is about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Pensacola and is part of Gaetz’s Florida Panhandle congressional district.Chambers was charged with battery and released Sunday on $1,000 bail.Defense attorney Matthew A. Karp said in an email that his own investigation has revealed that Gaetz and his group were engaged in a verbal altercation with a grou...

76ers’ Embiid doubtful; Celtics vow adjustments for Game 2

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:42:30 GMT

BOSTON (AP) — Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla said he didn’t walk off the court feeling any panic following Boston’s 119-115 Eastern Conference semifinals loss to the 76ers in Game 1.If anything, he thinks his team saw on tape a blueprint of exactly what they need to do to rebound in Game 2 on Wednesday.“I don’t think it was a letdown, we just lost the game,” Mazzulla said. “Hindsight is 20-20, you always have the answer after.”What he and his staff observed was a Boston team that made lots of little mistakes in the second half. That, along with a 45-point performance by James Harden and 17 3-pointers by the 76ers, was too much for Boston to overcome.“There’s pockets of that game that we can handle better,” Mazzulla said. “Then obviously late-game execution can get better. Switching, and different coverages and just finding floor space. So, I think it’s just honing in on what we’re great at and working to do it. … And then clean up some areas where we can be a little more physi...

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — JuJu Smith-Schuster’s first few weeks with the New England Patriots have made him feel as if he’s back in college.Every day has been a new learning experience.He’s entering the second phase of the team’s offseason conditioning program and aside from getting his body ready for upcoming organized team activities, the receiver has also been diving into the third new playbook of his career after joining the Patriots in free agency.Smith-Schuster said arriving in Foxborough early this offseason is crucial as he tries to acclimate himself after spending last season with the Kansas City Chiefs and the previous five in Pittsburgh.“Every day I’m growing here,” Smith-Schuster said. “That’s that I love about here.”He was a hot commodity when free agency opened in March, and quickly garnered a three-year deal that reportedly could be worth as much as $33 million.A Pro Bowler in 2018 with Pittsburgh, injuries limited him to just five games his final season there in...

Zach Muckenhirn set to become first players from University of North Dakota to reach majors

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:42:30 GMT

DETROIT — Zach Muckenhirn is about to become the first player drafted out of the University of North Dakota to ever reach the Major Leagues.And quite possibly the last.“I’m already an artifact,” Muckenhirn told the Daily News in the spring.The Mets selected the left-hander’s contract Monday afternoon. With Brooks Raley on the injured list, it opened up a spot for Muckenhirn, who posted 0.77 ERA in Triple-A Syracuse to start the season.A Minnesota native, Muckenhirn had only one Division I offer coming out of high school: North Dakota. The school has always been known for its powerhouse hockey program but Muckenhirn saw a talented class of baseball recruits and trusted the vision and coaching of head coach Jeff Dodson, who loaded the schedule with tough competition to be able to give his players more exposure than they would get in Grand Forks.But the program was cut shortly after Muckenhirn was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 11th round of the 2...

Red Sox notebook: Bryce Harper back in Phillies lineup, James Paxton still rehabbing

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:42:30 GMT

It looks like the Red Sox won’t be able to escape Bryce Harper when they head to the City of Brotherly Love this weekend.Defying odds and shattering timetables, the Philadelphia Phillies star got clearance to play again on Monday, just 159 days after undergoing Tommy John surgery last fall. The two-time National League MVP will make his season debut on Tuesday night.Harper will rejoin the lineup as the designated hitter first. He served in that role for the majority of 2022, playing through a partial tear in his UCL for almost the entire season in order to help the Phillies end their postseason drought (2011) and win their first pennant since 2009.The 30-year-old slugger has faced the Red Sox 22 times before, and hasn’t hit them very well in the past (16 hits, including five doubles and four homers, and 28 strikeouts), but he’s very comfortable in his home ballpark: since signing his record-breaking contract with the Phillies ahead of the 2019 season, he’s hi...
