The Carson High football team picked up a 57-28 win Friday night at Lower Lake High School.
It was an interesting race weekend last week, and this week should prove no less fascinating. Denny Hamlin joined his Monster Energy Cup teammates Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. in the four-win club, and Will Power kept his NTT IndyCar series streak of 13 years with at least one season win alive. And Matt DiBenedetto proved that he deserves a good ride, taking a 2018 JGR chassis to a second-place finish after finding out he’ll be losing his job at season’s end. Finally, after another big crash, fortunately with no major injuries, there are questions about whether IndyCar should continue to race at Pocono.
Carson City native Barbara Perkins trots across the finish line, her waist cutting the white tape emblazoned with “Ironman Santa Rosa.” Sporting a wide smile, Perkins raises her arms, lifting the tape over her head like a trophy. As she soaks in the atmosphere — the loud cheers from spectators, the long hugs from family — Perkins has a flood of emotions wash over her. Beneath red-tinted sunglasses, her eyes begin filling with tears.

DENVER — Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders and 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo each made a triumphant return to action Monday night when the San Francisco 49ers’ backups engineered a 24-15 preseason win over the Denver Broncos. Garoppolo was glad to get back on the field, even though he went just 1 for 6 for zero yards and an interception in his first game since suffering a season-ending knee injury last September.
ALAMEDA, Calif. — Star receiver Antonio Brown practiced in a certified helmet with the Oakland Raiders on Tuesday, two days after being given an ultimatum by general manager Mike Mayock to be “all in or all out.” “He’s all in, ready to go,” coach Jon Gruden said. “That’s my understanding. Really happy to have him out here. He’s a great player.”

Is Jimmy Garoppolo of the San Francisco 49ers overrated, overpaid and overhyped? Well, we will likely find out this year. If he stays healthy. Tom Brady’s former backup will turn 28 years old in early November. This is his sixth year in the NFL and he has started just 10 games and thrown for just 17 touchdowns and 2,968 yards in his career. He’s never thrown a pass in a playoff game. The most games he has started in a season is five (2017). And he makes just under $30 million a year.

I don’t usually do this, but this week I’m going to get a little personal. This year is a milestone year for me, because it marks 50 years since I got involved in racing on the inside. Starting as a turn worker at Sears Point (now Sonoma) I have seldom missed a race since. My racing jobs have included turn marshal, communicator, starter, driver, pit crew, reporter, publicist, and announcer. Currently I’m writing this column for the Appeal and announcing at Fernley 95A Speedway.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd showed flashes in the exhibition opener of the ability that led the San Francisco 49ers to take the two receivers on the second day of this year’s NFL draft. Samuel provided some big plays down the field and Hurd caught two touchdown passes as both rookies make their case for getting significant playing time when the regular season starts.
NAPA, Calif. — Antonio Brown walked onto the Oakland Raiders practice field in his familiar No. 84 jersey surrounded by cameras and received warm greetings from teammates.

Stop worrying about who, exactly, will become the starting quarterback for the Nevada Wolf Pack this season. The Wolf Pack will name a starter sometime this month among top choices Malik Henry, Carson Strong and Cristian Solano and he will throw for a lot of yards and touchdowns. And if the starter Aug. 30 doesn’t play well, the next quarterback in line will get a chance.

Last weekend featured some exciting racing, happy winners, and big disappointments. Joe Gibbs Racing is back on top as Denny Hamlin took his third win of the season, only one victory behind teammates Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. Scott Dixon took his sixth Mid-Ohio win, barely holding off Ganassi Racing teammate Felix Rosenqvist. And after securing pole position for the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim, Mercedes’ 125th anniversary in the sport came to an ignominious end while Red Bull’s Max Verstappen scored his second win of the season.
