Cleveland general manager David Griffin said the team has no plans to trade power forward Kevin Love — right now. MORE: How will the coaching carousel spin in summer? “You’d have to go a long way to convince me that we’re a better team winning in the Finals without a player like Kevin on our team,” Griffin said Monday in an interview on Cleveland radio station WKNR. “We’ve never once put together an offer involving Kevin nor have we taken a call on an offer for Kevin....

“Every two days, these children are getting offered shower facilities,” Hull, who is in charge of CBP’s El Paso sector, told CNN’s New Day on Monday. “Now, we cannot make them shower. We can take them to the shower and we can put them there, but we can’t physically make them shower.” Hull said that his agents have encountered “children who have never brushed their teeth.” He claimed that CBP agents have had to “teach them basic hygiene....

The CDC said in a recent letter to the cruise industry that it will allow cruise companies to skip testing passengers and staff if they can vow that 98% of the crew and 95% of passengers are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Cruise operators are currently required to conduct simulated voyages to test health and safety protocols. In the letter, the CDC says it will review and respond to applications from cruise lines for simulated voyages within 5 days, a review previously expected to take 30 days....

“I think it’s really important to get our schools open,” CDC Director Robert Redfield said during an appearance on Good Morning America, adding that the widely-debated decision is a matter of “public health versus public health.” “I think there really are a number of negative public health consequences that have happened to our K[indergarten] through twelves by having these schools closed,” Redfield said. “It’s so important now to work together with school districts to figure out how they can take our guidelines and operationalize them in a practical way....

The annual holiday earned its special place in history to mark the end of Prohibition. During the 1920s, alcohol had been made illegal to sell, transport and even produce in the United States. On April 7, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Cullen–Harrison Act of 1933 into law, which finally allowed people to start brewing and selling their own beer, according to National Day Calendar. The Cullen–Harrison Act of 1933 was named after Senator Pat Harrison and Representative Thomas H....

The billionaire former mayor of New York City spent over $500 million dollars on his campaign, with hundreds of millions spent on advertising across digital media and television. The candidate quickly endorsed Joe Biden for President after dropping out, a move that many former candidates, including the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana Pete Buttigieg and Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, took prior to Super Tuesday. On Twitter Bloomberg made a quick statement saying: “Three months ago, I entered the race to defeat Donald Trump....

La Albiceleste looked like they were going to win comfortably after a Lionel Messi penalty and a goal from Angel Di Maria put them 2-0 up at half-time. French striker Kylian Mbappe had different ideas, though, scoring two goals in just over a minute as Argentina were preparing to celebrate their win. With it 2-2 at 90 minutes, the game went into extra time. Messi scored again before Mbappe completed his hat-trick from the spot, leaving the game level at 3-3 and sending it to penalties....

The Billy on the Street host wrote a pair of tweets criticizing the network and calling on other celebrities to do the same. “He’s a white supremacist who’s helped murder 220,000 Americans. What’s next? Hitler on America’s Got Talent?” he wrote. Eichner wasn’t alone in his criticisms levied against the network for hosting Trump. Late night host Jimmy Kimmel mocked the decision in his monologue on Wednesday night. “Trump today announced he will also be doing a town hall but on NBC, and at the same time as Biden’s....

Motherwell have won the Scottish Cup twice before, last winning it in 1991. Celtic have already beaten Motherwell – seventh in the Scottish league – in the League Cup final in November, with the score finishing at 2-0.

On Tuesday, the district attorney in Kenosha, Wis., decided not to file charges against the police officer who shot Black man Jacob Blake seven times in the back in an incident that sparked widespread outrage, including from an NBA community outspoken about police use of force. On Wednesday, a mob of Donald Trump supporters broke into the Capitol building in response to the impending certification of the 2020 presidential election results....

But Danny Ainge made it official Thursday, announcing that Rondo will make his season debut in the Celtics' Friday game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Ceitics posted on their Twitter account: "Danny Ainge announces that barring any setbacks today, Rajon Rondo is expected to play in tomorrow's game against the Lakers." Rondo hasn't played in a game since Jan. 25, when he suffered the right knee injury in the second half of a contest against the Atlanta Hawks....

Brooklyn dominated Boston in Games 1 and 2, comfortably winning by double digits in each contest on its way to a 2-0 lead. Now the Celtics are facing what is essentially a must-win game at TD Garden, and that means All-Star forward Jayson Tatum and guard Kemba Walker, both of whom are dealing with injuries, will need to step up and carry the scoring load.

Also, a source told SN that nothing was brewing on oft-discussed point guard Rajon Rondo. Celtics president Danny Ainge would prefer to trade the Clippers’ 2015 first-rounder, the pick the team obtained as compensation for allowing LA to sign coach Doc Rivers — the Clippers are likely to be a good team next season, which would lessen the value of the pick. The Rockets would prefer to have a pick in the loaded 2014 NBA Draft....

Trailing for most of the night, they found their rhythm in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Thunder 37-26 to extend their win streak to seven games. After a quiet first half, Marcus Smart came to life when the Celtics needed it most, scoring 20 of his 22 points in the second half — one of six Boston players to finish in double figures. Jayson Tatum led the charge with 27 points, 10 rebounds, and three steals, despite shooting just 1-of-9 from the 3-point line, while Jaylen Brown added 26 points, six rebounds, and six assists....

President Joe Biden and his administration are planning to draw down all troops in Afghanistan by September 11, and previously suggested earlier this month that U.S. combat forces in Iraq would be redeployed somewhere else in the near future. Last January, Iraq’s parliament voted to expel U.S. troops from the country after former President Donald Trump ordered the assassination of Iranian military leader Qassem Soleimani—which also resulted in the death of Iraqi military commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis on the road from the Baghdad airport....

Puel took the Algeria international off his usual right flank to play behind Jamie Vardy in the Foxes’ 2-0 win over Everton on Sunday. Having provided an assist for the Foxes’ opening goal to crown an impressive outing, the former Southampton handler disclosed that playing Mahrez behind the target man frees him up to wreak havoc on oppositions’ defence. “We spoke about football and it was the same on Saturday,” Puel told Leicester Mercury....

It’s a bit of a mushy concept and there isn’t any general agreement on exactly what the test of fairness is. But, I think it’s important before we dive in, to try and broaden it out a little bit. So yes, one question is, are these huge compensations packages fair—what is it doing to us as a society? Are they necessary? Are they looking after the interests of shareholders, consumers and employees?...

Ken Griffey Jr. took the title in 1998 and 1999. With a serious, determined look on his face the whole time, Cespedes finished with 28 homers. That was four fewer than last year, when he beat Washington’s Bryce Harper 9-8 in the final round. Cespedes saved his best for last, a 452-foot blast to the third deck above left field that officially measured as the longest of the night....

So, when a conference room glass door of Paramount’s Network’s Downtown Manhattan, New York offices slowly slid open Tuesday, Sonnen proceeded to press and assault Emelianenko … with questions.
