NFL owners adopt new 15-yd penalty
NFL owners adopted a 15-yard penalty for excessive celebrations.
The penalty will be in addition to fines previously in place for choreographed and multiplayer celebrations.
The infractions are considered unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. The yardage will be marched off from the spot at the end of the previous play or, after a score, on the ensuing kickoff. If the infraction is flagrant, the player will be ejected.
McGrady to miss remainder of NBA season with injury
NBA scoring leader Tracy McGrady will miss the rest of the season after the Orlando Magic put him on the injured list because of left knee tendinitis.
McGrady, averaging 28 points, skipped the past two games because his knee was sore and now also will be sidelined for the Magic’s final seven games.
