Trotz, the only coach in franchise history, will not return for a 16th season in Nashville, the team confirmed. The Predators (38-32-12) finished 2013-14 with wins in nine of their last 12 games, but still missed the playoffs for a second straight season, largely because of a long-term injury to goalie Pekka Rinne and a group of forwards that is short on skill. Trotz helped turn an expansion team into a regular playoff qualifier, though he made it past the first round just twice, and benefited greatly from the presence play of goaltenders like Tomas Vokoun and Rinne....

C: Buster Posey, Giants The 2010 National League Rookie of the Year and 2012 MVP and batting champion also has thrown out opposing base stealers at a better than league average rate in all of his major league seasons. His injury in a 2011 collision at home plate may have changed the rules, but it didn’t change Posey’s status as one of the best players in baseball. Honorable mention: Joe Mauer, Yadier Molina, Carlos Ruiz...

The Hall of Fame quarterback won three Super Bowls with the Cowboys and has not been shy about voicing his frustrations about the direction of the team with whom he spent his entire pro career. Having seen fellow former players John Elway and John Lynch, previously a colleague of Aikman’s at Fox Sports, enjoy success as general managers with the Broncos and 49ers, respectively, the 53-year-old believes a switch to a similar position could be a viable career move....

Take Reality TV, for instance. You could argue that Barris invented the genre. In the 1965, he created television’s “The Dating Game.” He later launched “The Newlywed Game,” “The $1.98 Beauty Contest” and most notoriously, “The Gong Show.” Along the way, TV critics labeled him “the king of schlock.” In today’s culture, some Hollywood producer would probably be happy to have that title. But back then, it was a different story....

Schiff, chair of the House Intelligence Committee, criticized what he branded Trump’s “enablers.” Few Republicans having broke rank with the president’s election fraud claims, despite these being largely unsubstantiated, as the incumbent refuses to concede to Joe Biden. Networks have called the election Biden’s favor, though Trump has refused to accept this and questioned what he labels the “lamestream media” making such a pronouncement. “The fact is the president couldn’t be doing all this, he couldn’t have broken down so many of our norms and democratic institutions over the last four years, he couldn’t be behaving the way he is today, if there weren’t leaders within the Republican party in congress and elsewhere going along with him,” Schiff told MSNBC....

On Friday, U.S. District Judge Dolly Gee ordered the Trump administration to give health experts access to its detention facilities holding migrant children to assess their medical needs and ensure that they are being held in “safe and sanitary” conditions after reports last month revealed that children were receiving insufficient care. The order came after lawyers asked Gee last week for emergency intervention in the Trump administration’s treatment of migrant children after they found kids being forced to take care of one another, while being deprived of adequate access to food, water and basic sanitary items, such as soap and toothbrushes....

Republican strategist Andrew Surabian accused The Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg of being “a propagandist for the Military Industrial Complex” on 4 September. Goldberg wrote the original article about Trump’s alleged comments and refusal to visit a military cemetery. Trump denies making disparaging remarks about dead troops and said bad weather prevented him from traveling to the cemetery while in France. “It says everything about how broken the media is that after @JeffreyGoldberg helped lie this nation into the Iraq War, he wasn’t run out of journalism in embarrassment, but rather given promotions to continue his shoddy ‘journalism’ unabated,” Surabian tweeted on 6 September, following up on his own comment....

Limbaugh recently revealed to his listeners that he has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. “I wish I didn’t have to tell you this, and I thought about not telling anybody. I thought about trying to do this without anybody knowing, ‘cause I don’t like making things about me,” Limbaugh said Monday on his syndicated radio program. “But there are going to be days that I’m not gonna be able to be here because I’m undergoing treatment or I’m reacting to treatment, and I know that that would inspire all kinds of curiosity with people wondering what’s going on....

Mastriano, a far-right election denier who was present at the “stop the steal” protest in Washington, D.C., on January 6, spoke at the sparsely attended event on Saturday in front of around 50 to 60 people. According to The New York Times, about half of those who watched Mastriano speak were volunteers from his own campaign team. The low attendance was seen as a for Mastriano’s struggling attempt to win over voters ahead of November’s midterms....

Morgan on Wednesday tweeted a 30-second preview of the stormy interview that’s scheduled to air on the controversial host’s new show on Fox Nation. The exchange is the latest in Trump’s continued insistence that he rightfully won the 2020 election despite a lack of evidence that the vote was marred by widespread fraud. The clip shows Trump sitting down for the interview that takes a confrontational tone as Morgan says he’ll be “completely straight with you to your face” to the former president....

“Breaking News: Russia just sanctioned Joe Biden. While that is a terrible thing, in so many ways, perhaps it will now be explained why the Biden family received 3.5 million dollars from the very wealthy former Mayor of Moscow’s wife,” Trump said in a Tuesday statement. “During our Presidential Debate, ‘moderator’ Chris Wallace, then of Fox, would not let me ask that question. He said it was inappropriate. Perhaps that’s why Biden has been so ‘slow on the draw’ with Russia,” the former president added....

Axios reported that Trump has expressed plans to declare victory Tuesday night if he appears to be ahead, citing three sources “familiar with his private comments”—though the president has said these suggestions are false. It comes amid the prospect of results not being finalized due to certain states being able to accept and then count mail-in ballots that arrive late. Pennsylvania, which could potentially be key to determining the election result, is one such state....

DeVos on Saturday spoke at the “Moms for Liberty” summit in Tampa, Florida. Lasting three days, the event featured numerous prominent right-wing figures and claimed to instruct attendees from 30 states on how to lead so-called “parental rights movements,” according to the Florida Phoenix. The goal of these movements is to ultimately form conservative majorities on local school boards. “I personally think the Department of Education should not exist,” DeVos said during her keynote, prompting attendees to stand up and cheer, according to the Phoenix....

The surge in social media attention came as the platforms took the unprecedented step of locking Trump’s accounts this week in response to multiple posts he made as a large mob of his supporters stormed the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Trump gained 166,073 Twitter followers on Wednesday alone, according to Factba.se, a platform archiving the president’s online activity. That was easily the largest boost since November 7, 2020, which was the last day he enjoyed a six-digit rise....

The former president has been accused of improperly removing dozens of classified documents from the White House before leaving office in 2021. Last August, the FBI seized the documents from Mar-a-Lago, turning the investigation public, though many details remain limited. Trump, however, has maintained his innocence. Trump, who is again running in the 2024 presidential race, is facing several investigations into his conduct as president—including his business dealings and actions surrounding the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot—he is yet to face any formal charges or indictments as investigators work to solidify their cases....

Bondi, who is among the lawyers on Trump’s defense team, called the articles of impeachment against the president “basic trash” and insisted he has “done nothing wrong” during an appearance on Fox News’ Justice with Judge Jeanine. She made the comment about the whistleblower while speaking about whether Rep. Adam Schiff, who is leading the prosecution in the president’s impeachment trial, could be called as a witness. Trial proceedings are set to begin in earnest on Tuesday....
