2+ hour, 13+ min ago (393+ words) Despite winning every game for nearly three months, No. 9 Notre Dame dropped a spot in the final College Football Playoff rankings Sunday and was left out of the 12-team bracket entirely. It was a hard fall from the couch. The Fighting Irish, which won its last 10 games by an average of nearly 30 points, watched championship weekend from afar, idle as an independent with no options to impress the selection committee one last time in a league title game. It surely will prompt cries of injustice from coast to coast, with the loudest of those coming from South Bend, Indiana. Athletic director Pete Bevacqua and coach Marcus Freeman had taken the high road in recent weeks, avoiding too much lobbying and believing their winning streak would be enough to earn a berth over Alabama. Miami (10-2) ended up knocking the Irish (10-2) out....

The 23-year-old Mukhamadullin, who missed over two weeks in October…...

It was held in Madison Square Garden in New York,the iconic indoor arena in downtown Manhattan. Attendees paid 50 cents. Before the Los Angeles and Detroit shows arrived seven years later, Olds Motor Vehicle Company of Lansing, Mich., built 425 Oldsmobiles, making it the nation's first automaker to produce cars in volume. Despite interruptions by wars and disease, the auto show tradition grew. Manufacturers began showcasing vehicles directly to consumers, a stress-free alternative to the once more prominent aggressive salesmanship at dealerships. The first LA Auto Show featured 99 vehicles on an ice-skating rink. It grew, organizers tout, to more than 1,000 cars and trucks and industry displays. But at the recently concluded edition, which ended its 10-day run Nov. 30, the…...
