A 23rd woman has filed a civil lawsuit against Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson accusing him of sexual misconduct during massage sessions. The woman, Nia Smith, filed Tuesday in Houston. Smith said in the suit that she had watched Ashley Solis and Kyla Hayes, who have come forward with accusations of sexual misconduct against Watson, be interviewed by Soledad O’Brien for HBO’s “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” a week earlier. Smith “was struck by the courage of the victims willing to step forward and speak and was extremely displeased by Watson and his legal team’s mistreatment and revictimizations of the plaintiffs,” “But it was Watson himself claiming that even now he has ’no regrets’ and has done nothing wrong that solidified her resolve,” Smith’s lawsuit further read....

Yet the mob around one table, located near the back of the ballroom, was notably large compared to the others for the duration of the session. It wasn’t for Bill Belichick.

The Browns, who were popular picks to win the AFC North and perhaps make a Super Bowl run, finished 8-9 and watched their in-state rival win the AFC championship. There is potential with uncertainty heading into coach Kevin Stefanski’s third season. Cleveland made a blockbuster offseason trade for Houston quarterback Deshaun Watson, but not even that will go as planned: On Aug. 18, Watson was slapped with an 11-game suspension by the league, returning in time to face his former team in Week 13....

With the second wild card spot in the National League, the Phillies have been without their best hitter since the end of June, when Harper broke his thumb. Harper started a rehab stint at Triple-A Lehigh Valley Tuesday, and one could say it started out well.

A “persistent ego,” as he calls it, led him to being on NASCAR’s top circuit prior to a summer of change for the country in 2020. And that ego also led to social changes within his own sport, which is steeped in southern heritage, Confederate flags and a culture that has been mostly-white for so long. Wallace’s eventual path into motorsports at age 9 seemingly led him to be the right person, at the right time and at the right place for the sport in 2020, though....

Not all Super Bowls have been played in NFL stadiums. That is, until the mid 1990s, when new stadiums were built for teams in hopes of landing a Super Bowl, which is a huge moneymaker for both the team and its city. The Los Angeles Rams won the NFC championship following the 1979 season, and they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XIV at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, which is in the Los Angeles metropolitan area....
