Denny Hamlin wins NASCAR race at Michigan, taunts crowd with OSU chant
Denny Hamlin wins NASCAR race at Michigan, taunts crowd with OSU chant BRISTOL, Mich. — Denny Hamlin's life hasn't been easy recently. He's waiting on the birth of his baby and his team is dealing with a lawsuit that could have profound impacts on how they race. But on Sunday afternoon, none of that seemed to affect him at Michigan International Speedway in the FireKeepers Casino 400 as he claimed his 57th career NASCAR Cup Series victory, ranking him 11th on the all-time list. Hamlin passed William Byron with three laps remaining in the race and held on as Byron ran out of fuel. Hamlin, himself, had just enough gas left for a burnout. It was Hamlin's third career win at Michigan and his first since Aug. 21, 2011. During his celebration after the race, Hamlin taunted a crowd – which was offering a mixture of boos and cheers – by breaking out Ohio State's "O-S-U" chant, leaning into his role as a provocateur. Chase Briscoe led on pole at the start of the race, but it wasn't long before William Byron took the lead. Stage 1 was a clean affair with no cautions – a statement that would not be true for the remainder of the race. Chris Buescher, who started in sixth, pursued Byron for much of the stage, eventually overtaking him at Lap 35. Buescher won Stage 1. In Stage 2, anarchy broke out on the track. Lead changes abounded as yellow flag after yellow flag waved from the finish line. The starting order was mixed at the start as teams pitted, and one notable jump was from Carson Hocevar, a native of Portage, Michigan, who moved from 10th at the end of Stage 1 to third at the beginning of Stage 2. Ultimately, though, that wouldn't matter. A yellow flag followed by a red flag on a crash on Turn 2 at Lap 67 that took out Alex Bowman and Cole Custer, along with the pit changes drivers opted for, scrambled the order again and again. Byron proved steady again, winning Stage 2 as well despite all the cautions. At one point, Michigan native Brad Keselowski was in the top four, but lost it after Ryan Blaney spun into the fence for the final caution of the second stage. Exiting that caution, Hocevar executed one of the best passes of the day, slingshotting himself into third place around both Tyler Reddick and Ross Chastain to claim third at the end of the stage. The Portage native wasn't done, either. More cautions came in Stage 3, but Hocevar took the lead after a rear-tire blowout from Todd Gilliland gave the field the seventh caution of the day. As fuel concerns became more prescient, Byron seemed content to sit behind Hocevar until late in the race. He wouldn't need to, though. On Lap 182, Hocevar suddenly began slowing, dropping place after place at Turn 3 as his tire blew out. Byron retook the lead as Denny Hamlin loomed behind him, pushing the No. 24 car to use more and more fuel. As the laps ticked down, Hamlin kept pushing Byron, and at Lap 196, the two of them battled for the lead for an entire lap. Hamlin eventually made the pass and took the lead with three laps remaining in the race. And with just enough gas, Hamlin crossed the finish line to win the day.

Tottenham Hotspur Pushing to Hijack Man United's Move for £60m Premier League Star
Tottenham Eye Mbeumo as Frank's Arrival Tilts Transfer Scales Key Details Emerge Around Spurs' Offer Tottenham Hotspur are moving swiftly to reshape their attack ahead of next season, with Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo emerging as a prime target. As reported by The Mirror, 'Spurs would offer Mbeumo around £130,000-a-week,' a figure lower than what Manchester United have already proposed. Yet, money isn't the only factor at play in this increasingly intriguing transfer saga. Advertisement United, who have already tabled two bids, the most recent worth £60m, remain in pole position financially. But Mbeumo's long-standing relationship with Thomas Frank, who is expected to take over as Spurs' new manager imminently, may prove decisive. Frank has 'reportedly requested Spurs enter the bidding' for the 25-year-old forward, having helped mould him into one of the league's most productive attackers. Photo: IMAGO Numbers Speak for Themselves Last season, Mbeumo registered 20 Premier League goals, a tally only bettered by Salah (29), Isak (23) and Haaland (22). His output was nothing short of elite, especially in a Brentford side not always blessed with consistent supply lines. For Tottenham, a player of Mbeumo's profile brings pace, intelligence, and crucially, an eye for goal from wider areas. Advertisement United have responded with intent, willing to pay up to £200,000-a-week in wages, according to The Mirror. But Spurs believe they hold two critical advantages: the draw of Champions League football and Frank's direct involvement in Mbeumo's career trajectory. Frank's Influence Could Prove Pivotal While Mbeumo initially 'signalled his intention to sign for the Red Devils ahead of Arsenal, Newcastle and Tottenham,' the landscape has shifted. With Spurs set to hand Frank the reins, the connection between coach and player is undeniable. That relationship, coupled with a step up to Champions League competition, could tempt the French-Cameroonian into reconsidering. As The Mirror highlights, 'Frank is on course to replace Ange Postecoglou' and wants Mbeumo as one of his first signings. It's a move that signals both trust and tactical familiarity. Mbeumo flourished under Frank's system at Brentford, and that rapport could be pivotal in luring him to north London despite a lower salary. Photo: IMAGO Champions League Football Tips the Scales The other major card in Spurs' hand is European qualification. Manchester United's dismal end to the season culminated in a fourth consecutive defeat to Spurs, this time in the Europa League final, which saw them lose out on a Champions League spot. Fernandes and Casemiro failed to inspire, and United's flat performance only deepened the growing sense of transition. Advertisement In contrast, Tottenham are back in Europe's premier competition, a platform that Mbeumo has not yet graced. That experience, alongside the opportunity to reunite with Frank, may outweigh the financial shortfall in Spurs' proposal. United may still lead this race with the power of their offer, but as the finer details emerge, Spurs' pitch grows stronger. Our View – EPL Index Analysis The potential reunion between Bryan Mbeumo and Thomas Frank is a compelling narrative for Spurs fans. Mbeumo isn't just a numbers man. he's got positional versatility, a relentless work ethic, and has proven himself in the Premier League. The idea of him joining a Champions League campaign under a manager who knows how to get the best from him is hard to ignore. Advertisement Of course, the wage gap is worrying. Spurs have, for too long, allowed their rigid wage structure to cost them top-tier talent. If this truly is Frank's priority signing, fans will be hoping Daniel Levy backs it with a competitive package. For United, it's hard to ignore Mbeumo's output. He would provide width, pace, and goals, exactly what Amorim would want. But United need to avoid another saga where they lose out despite being first to the table. If the club believe he's the right fit, they should wrap it up now. Because letting Spurs swoop in, backed by Frank's influence and Champions League football, would be another miss in a summer where precision matters.

Ex-Louisville star Russ Smith arrested for suspicion of DUI, reckless driving
Louisville Metro Police arrested a former Louisville basketball star early Sunday morning for driving under the influence of alcohol. Russ Smith, a member of the 2013 Louisville basketball team who won the NCAA Tournament that was later vacated, was stopped after police spotted him making a U-turn across multiple lanes and noticed his license plate tag had expired, the Courier Journal reported after viewing the arrest citation. Police detected a 'strong odor of alcoholic beverages' on Smith's breath when they first talked to him, and he failed a field sobriety test after he told officers that he drank 'two bourbon pours neat' before getting behind the wheel, according to the arrest citation. 3 Russ Smith was arrested early Sunday morning. Louisville Metro Corrections 3 Russ Smith looks to pass during Louisville's game in November 2012. Getty Images The Queens native 'swayed' when he stepped out of the car and failed a walk and turn test, WDRB reported. Smith had a 0.073 blood alcohol content, but in the state of Kentucky, drivers can still be prosecuted if they have a BAC of above 0.04 but below 0.08 as long as there is other evidence to support the case. 'That fact may be considered, together with other competent evidence, in determining the guilt or innocence of the defendant,' according to the statute in the state. A police spokesperson told WDRB that 'we will allow the arrest slip to speak for itself,' when asked about Smith's BAC. Smith faces charges of driving under the influence, reckless driving and having unregistered license plates. 3 Russ Smith drives to the basket during Louisville's game in March 2014. Getty Images He was released without bond and is due back in court for an arraignment hearing on June 11 at Jefferson County District Court. WDRB reported that Smith is slated to play in The Basketball Tournament this summer, a winner-take-all tournament with a $1 million prize. Smith played four years at Louisville, and he averaged 14.3 points per game. He had brief NBA stints with the Pelicans and Grizzlies, as well as some time in the G-League and overseas. Smith played his high school ball at Archbishop Molloy in Queens
