OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — A Washington state ethics board has reaffirmed a vote from earlier this year that allows lawmakers to receive free tickets to the U.S. Open golf tournament without violating state rules limiting gifts to legislators. The board voted Tuesday to approve a written advisory written following a February vote in which the board agreed that the $110 tickets are acceptable exemptions to state rules that cap gifts to a $50 value. Because lawmakers will learn about developments to the site of the tournament expected to draw more than 200,000 visitors, ethics panel officials say that lawmakers won't be at the tournament primarily as spectators. Lawmakers will be able to choose one of two three-hour tours that the county is organizing during the June tournament at Chambers Bay Golf Course, though they will have time to watch some of the tournament if they choose.Read more on NewsOK.com

  • Renck vs. Keeler: Which new Broncos QB will start in Week 1: Bo Nix or Zach Wilson?
    Denver Post, Monday - 04/29/2024 - 01:57 PM

    Sean Keeler: It took about 16 seconds for the Bo Nix haters to come crashing through the front door of Dove Valley like it was a Black Friday. The fumes have barely faded on the 2024 draft, and at least one major betting service on Monday listed the Broncos’ latest franchise QB lottery ticket as its heavy favorite to be “most likely rookie QB to be benched first.” Which presumes, of course, that he’s the Broncos’ starter right out of the gate.

All three were once teammates at Eagles Landing Christian Academy in McDonough, Ga., and now will be teammates at CU, where they’ll play for head coach Deion Sanders.
