NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL will not suspend Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill under its personal conduct policy in a domestic violence case involving his 3-year-old son.
The league said Friday it has not been given access to information in the court proceedings, and a district attorney in June said an investigation was dropped because officials couldn’t prove who injured the boy.
The NFL added in its statement that “information developed in the court proceeding is confidential and has not been shared with us” and all law enforcement records are sealed.
“Local law enforcement authorities have publicly advised that the available evidence does not permit them to determine who caused the child’s injuries,” the NFL said.
Hill was suspended in April by the Chiefs. He is now is eligible to attend training camp and participate in all activities if the Chiefs lift their suspension.
The Chiefs suspended Hill on April 25 after a local television station aired a recording of a conversation between Hill and fiancee Crystal Espinal discussing the boy’s injuries. Hill has consistently maintained his innocence, saying his son’s health is his top priority.
At the time, owner Clark Hunt said he was “deeply disturbed” by the audio recording.
The investigation began after police were called to Hill’s home twice in March and determined the child had been injured. In the 11-minute recording reportedly made by Espinal in an airport in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, she tells Hill that when the boy was asked about his injured arm he replied: “Daddy did it.”
Hill denied any role in what happened to the child, saying: “He says Daddy does a lot of things.”
When Espinal tells Hill their son is “terrified of you,” he replies, “You need to be terrified of me, too …”
The Chiefs drafted Hill even though he pleaded guilty in 2015 to domestic assault and battery for attacking Espinal while a student at Oklahoma State. He was dismissed from the Oklahoma State football team and ended up playing at West Alabama, where he underwent counseling and court-mandated service work.
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – Former Hays High standout Tradgon McCrae’s run at the Kansas Amateur golf tournament at Milburn Country Club in Overland Park came to an end Thursday first round of match play.
McCrea, in the round of 64, lost to Pete Krsnich of Wichita two and one in 17 holes.
McCrea birdied the first hole to go 1 up, but bogeys on three and six would allow Krsnich, the former Kansas Jayhawk, to go 1 up and he led by one after a first-round 36.
Another bogey for McCrea on 11 put Krsnich 2 up through 11. Krsnich added a birdie on 15 and was 3 up before giving a shot back with a bogey on 16.
Heading to the 17th, McCrea trailed 2 up and need to win the hole to extend the match, but both McCrea and Krsnich recorded a par on the par-5 17 giving Krisnich the win.

NEW YORK (AP) — How much is too much for streaming video?
A dramatic slowdown in worldwide growth at Netflix — including the first quarterly drop in its U.S. subscribers since 2011 — is raising questions about just how much are people willing to pay for streaming services. Especially with a host of new ones from Disney, Apple and others on their way.
A recent price increase seems to have spooked Netflix subscribers. The company lost 126,000 subscribers in the U.S., less than 1% of its 60.1 million paid U.S. subscriptions, during the April-June period. Its most popular plan rose from $11 to $13 in a U.S. price hike announced in January and rolled out for many subscribers during the second quarter. Worldwide, the service picked up 2.7 million worldwide subscribers, far below Netflix’s forecast of 5 million.
“Netflix raising prices prompted people to think about whether they were getting value for money,” Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter said.
While people are willing to shell out for several services to meet their streaming needs, he said, they’re also willing to cancel if they’re not using it enough, just as they would with a gym membership or a subscription to the New Yorker magazine.
Streaming services preparing to compete with Netflix appear to be taking note.
Disney Plus, set to debut in November, will already be cheaper than Netflix at $8 a month, though Disney Plus will also have a smaller video library. Hulu has cut prices to $6 from $8 for its main, ad-supported service. Services from Apple, due out this year, and WarnerMedia and NBCUniversal, out in 2020, don’t have announced prices yet, although the NBCUniversal service will be free and ad supported for traditional cable TV subscribers.
Of course, even if these individual services are cheaper than Netflix, it’s not clear how many consumers will be willing to pay for.
One way to make a service appealing is not through better prices but through exclusive shows and deep libraries, including shows that Netflix will be losing. Netflix’s two most popular shows, “Friends” and “The Office,” will be departing in the coming months for rival services.
Group M analyst Brian Weiser said that for now, other services shouldn’t be overly concerned by a weak quarter or two at Netflix. He said streaming content consumption is still growing rapidly, so the overall market has plenty of room for competitors. And the streaming arena is a growth area in the much bigger and more mature entertainment industry.
“I don’t think it follows that if Netflix has an underperforming quarter that tells you about others,” he said.
Some analysts also believe Netflix’s trouble is temporary.
Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Graham said the subscriber numbers will likely hit the stock in the short term — the stock was down 11% in midday trading Thursday — but overall the company’s growth remains on track, particularly overseas.
“We still see a strong content strategy and room to add large numbers of international subscriptions as key strengths going forward,” he wrote in a note to investors.
Similarly, Pivotal Research Group analyst Jeffrey Wlodarczak said investors shouldn’t make a “mountain out of a molehill,” with the most recent quarterly figures.
The spring quarter is typically sluggish for the streaming service, and Netflix acknowledged a weak content slate could have been partly responsible for the drop. It expects to regain some momentum this summer, projecting that it will add 7 million subscribers from July through September. The optimism stems in part from the immense popularity of “Stranger Things,” whose third season attracted record viewership after its July 4 release.
Netflix has said it welcomes competition. It ended June with 151.6 million worldwide subscribers, far more than a current crop of video streaming rivals that includes Amazon and Hulu.
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Leave the kids at home, “Terminator: Dark Fate” is getting an R-rating.
Director Tim Miller told the audience at San Diego Comic-Con that it wasn’t always going to be the plan, but the fans demanded it. The panel that kicked off the fan convention Thursday morning may also have gotten the same rating with the number of expletives thrown around by Miller.
Arnold Schwarzenegger even won $20 because Miller said one particular word more than 5 times.
“It was 10,” Schwarzenegger said. “I counted.”
Would you expect any less from the director of “Deadpool”?
Miller and Schwarzenegger were joined by Linda Hamilton, who is reprising her role as Sarah Connor, franchise newcomer Mackenzie Davis and other cast members on the Hall H stage.
This latest film fully ignores the events of the last Terminator movie, “Terminator: Genisys,” with Emilia Clarke which bombed with audiences and critics in 2015. Instead “Dark Fate” picks up where James Cameron left off with “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” in 1991.
Producer David Ellison even told Miller that he didn’t do Terminator as well as he’d wished the first time around with “Genisys” and wanted to try again.
Part of the strategy to “get it right” involved bringing Cameron back to produce.
Cameron chimed in via a live broadcast from the set of the “Avatar” sequels. He said he would have liked to have been in San Diego to kick off the 50th Comic-Con , but that he had to keep working.
“Everybody’s always whining about how long it’s taking ‘Avatar’ to get done,” Cameron said.
His requirements for a new “Terminator” film started and stopped with wanting to make sure Schwarzenegger came back. It wasn’t a problem, since Schwarzenegger himself said he’s addicted to these films.
″‘Terminator’ was the movie that really launched my action movie career,” Schwarzenegger said.
Then there was the Sarah Connor question. For Cameron and many fans, Hamilton is the one true Sarah. He sent her a “long rambling email with a lot of reasons why she should do it and a lot of reasons why she shouldn’t.”
The main point in the “pro column,” Cameron said, is that people love her as this character.
“The character is the same but time changes everything,” Hamilton said. “I felt there was a world of richness I could explore and then rock it as a woman of a certain age.”
Although the 62-year-old actress is in full fighting shape in the footage and trailers, Hamilton said she didn’t worry too much about getting back to her “T2” self.
“One day I woke up and realized I can no longer worry about being what I was because I am so much more than what I was,” she said. “The richness of my life experience is only going to enrich the character I play.”
But her 32-year-old co-star Davis still conceded that Hamilton would definitely win in a fight. Hamilton agreed.
“Mackenzie is stronger and younger, but I’m meaner,” Hamilton said with a smile.
Edward Furlong is also returning to play John Connor again.
The audience greeted the action-packed footage with enthusiasm, which reached a crescendo when Sarah Connor debuted on screen.
“Terminator: Dark Fate” opens in theaters Nov. 1 and Comic-Con runs through Sunday.
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Jerry Seinfeld would rather cruise in classic cars and sip coffee with comedy’s best than reboot his uber-successful “Seinfeld” television series.
“No, and do what? Make it worse?” Seinfeld said in an interview Wednesday night about his eponymous NBC sitcom, which celebrated its 30-year anniversary this month. “I’m very fortunate to be in the position to make that show with those people at that time. I wouldn’t be arrogant enough to think I could do it again. That’s egomaniacal. I’m happy with what I have now.”
These days, Seinfeld is focused on learning more about the “sharpest minds in comedy” through his Netflix series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.” The 11th season of the series premieres Friday on the streaming service featuring Eddie Murphy, who talked about his career and shared stories with Seinfeld about them coming up in comedy together in New York in the 1970s.
The new season also includes an array of other comedians including Martin Short, Rick Gervais, Seth Rogan, Bridget Everett, Barry Marder, Melissa Villaseño and Mario Joyner. Jamie Foxx appears in an episode to talk about him wanting to return to standup and his impersonation of Dave Chappelle.
“It’s kind of a music video to me. It’s just kind of visual. The words are interesting and sometimes it’s funny, but I like it to have a rhythm and flow and then it’s over,” Seinfeld said. “It’s just very quick. I always like when people go ‘I wish that was a little longer.’”
Seinfeld launched “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” on Sony’s Crackle in 2012. The series was moved to Netflix two years ago after the comedian signed a massive deal with the streaming service.
This season, Seinfeld continues to pick up each guest in a different vintage car, from a Maserati Mistral to a Rolls-Royce convertible to a beat-up Dodge Monaco. He takes them to a cafe or restaurant for coffee where they have an easy-flowing conversation about their career and life experiences as comedians.
Seinfeld said he learns something new from each guest. He was surprised when Murphy spoke about not being as confident as most thought during his rise in comedy. He also didn’t know that Rogen first heard about Bill Cosby’s sexual misconduct history from Hannibal Buress in 2014, a month before Buress accused Cosby in a viral stand-up routine.
For Seinfeld, he feels somewhat like a news reporter in an effort to create a comfortable environment for guests to open up.
“People like to tell me stuff, and I don’t know why,” said Seinfeld, who has featured former President Barack Obama and Kevin Hart in previous seasons. “It’s happened to me my whole life, because I think I really listen. But I would never put anything in the show I think the person might not want in there. I want the show to be fun like a little cappuccino foam, just light and pleasant.”
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Tom Cruise has made an unexpected flyby at San Diego Comic-Con to debut the first trailer for “Top Gun: Maverick.”
The audience in the 8,000 seat room went wild for Cruise Thursday afternoon. He closed out what had been billed only as a panel for “Terminator: Dark Fate.”
Cruise says all the flying in the trailer is real and that “Top Gun: Maverick” is a love letter to aviation. They worked with the Navy for the film, which is currently in production.
“Top Gun: Maverick” is expected to hit theaters next June. Val Kilmer, Jon Hamm and Miles Teller co-star.
Cruise said Comic-Con was the perfect place to premiere the trailer. He shot the original some 34 years ago in San Diego.
Hays city commissioners are proud of the Hays Fire Department.
Commissioner Eber Phelps Thursday night suggested a letter of commendation and thanks should be sent from the commission to the city fire department for their recent assistance to the Plainville Fire Department.
HFD took on fire coverage in Plainville to allow its firefighters to attend the funerals of two retired PFD chiefs.
“I thought it was great that we had our firefighters and a truck over there to stand guard on the city of Plainville while they paid tribute to fire chiefs,” Phelps said.
The commission noted the Hays Fire Department has performed such coverage assistance in other towns.
Below is the Hays Fire Department’s Facebook post about its assistance in Plainville.
“It’s a task no department ever wants to take on, but it is an honor to help out our brothers and sisters in Rooks county as the Plainville Fire Department lays to rest two retired chief officers. Your Hays firefighters sent an Engine and 3 firefighters to cover calls for the City of Plainville during the funerals of Retired Chief Keith Mongeau and Retired Assistant Chief Bob Wise. Covering for the Plainville Fire Department allowed their firefighters to attend the funerals without worry of being interrupted by calls.The Hays Fire Department sends our deepest sympathies to the families and friends of Chief Mongeau and Asst. Chief Wise.”
LOS ANGELES (AP) — David Crosby has turned down no fewer than four biopics about his life. None of them captured the scope of his turbulent life.
But he said yes when director A.J. Eaton proposed a documentary. At 77, in relatively poor health yet creating some of the best music of his career, Crosby was ready to talk. And a chance run-in with Cameron Crowe, who has known Crosby since the director was a teenager, meant they also had the perfect person to ask the questions.
The film, “David Crosby: Remember My Name,” opens in New York and Los Angeles on Friday and is expanding nationwide in the coming weeks. It’s a disarmingly revealing portrait of the “guy in Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young who’s never had a hit” (his words). He talks candidly about falling out with his band, his unhealthy relationship with Joni Mitchell, his “two or three” heart attacks, learning how to be a rock star from The Beatles, his disdain for Jim Morrison (“a dork”), his addictions, the untimely death of a girlfriend and how his wife Jan loves him “in ways that I didn’t love myself.”
And it wasn’t easy going to those uncomfortable places, but it was the only way Crosby and the filmmakers would have it.
“There were definitely times when I said, ‘You can’t put that in the film,’” Crosby said. “And they’d go, ‘Yeah, sure Dave.’ But we did the best we could do to get you some idea of how I got to here.”
Crowe said it was an honor to “be the guy to interview him when he was ready to tell his life story.” They first met in 1973 or 1974 when Crowe got an assignment to write about Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.
“Crosby had no idea who I was writing for, didn’t care. I was just a guy who had a lot of questions and he had all the time in the world for me,” Crowe said. “He answered every question.”
They kept in touch over the years, too, and Crowe always worried each time he saw him that it might be the last.
“It’s deeply ironic that he’s at his most sparkling now when he’s probably his least healthy,” Crowe said. “But he wants to communicate and tell us that ‘time is the final currency.’”
It doesn’t mean filming was a breeze, though. One day when production went to visit the famed Laurel Canyon Country Store, he said Crosby was particularly cranky. They captured his mood in the film as he gruffly rejects romanticizing the store or even the area — it was just a place to get away from the smog, Crosby said.
“But then he goes and sits down outside of the Country Store and what does he say? ‘I was a bad lover. I let down all these women in my life.’ And I’m like well SOMETHING about the Country Store seems to be speaking to you. He went as deep as he’d gone at that point,” Crowe said. “But he wanted nothing to do with my metaphor of ‘What did you come to this store for?’ He’s like, ‘for groceries, what are you talking about?’”
And while Crosby never refused to answer any question, Crowe believes there’s still a necessary mystery around him.
“That last smirk he has is kind of a rosebud moment,” Crowe said. “And I still don’t know what he’s thinking there.”
Crosby knows he’s in a unique position to have reached this creative apex at this stage in his life. He’s currently touring for “Sky Trails,” his third original album in less than five years.
“Normally people’s lives don’t go this way, to have a sudden resurgence at the end of a career,” Crosby said. “I’m going against the flow here. I’m definitely a salmon that’s running upstream, there isn’t any question. But why it’s happening to me to such an extreme degree and at such a late time? I can’t explain it.”
He just likes making music and has found collaborators he likes working with. But he thinks sometimes about why his older material continues to resonate (“it was a hopeful time and we’re in very dark times right now”).
Also, legacy is on his mind lately not just because of the documentary. Crosby is planning to file litigation over master recordings that were lost in the Universal vault fire in 2008, which has only just come to light recently.
“They had a laid out, contractual, written obligation to protect those tapes,” Crosby said. “So you can count on a lawsuit.”
But mostly he’s thinking about the future of music and is keenly aware discouraging it must be for young musicians starting out in a business that is stacked against them.
“Kids coming up can’t make a goddamn living because they can’t make money off of records,” Crosby said. “Art is already suffering because of it… The problem with the pop music is that it’s shallow. It doesn’t go anywhere, it doesn’t take you anywhere.”
And as for whether or not he’d eventually allow someone to give him the “Rocketman” or “Bohemian Rhapsody” treatment? Definitely.
“But I don’t think you can do it half-assed,” he said.
