  Kevin Stefanski Hands Over Browns Play-Calling Duties to Offensive Coordinator Ken Dorsey: A New Era for Cleveland’s Offense In a significant shift for the Cleveland Browns, head coach Kevin Stefanski has decided to relinquish his play-calling responsibilities, passing them on to recently hired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey. This move marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of the Browns’ offense, signaling Stefanski’s willingness to adapt in hopes of igniting the team's underwhelming performance on that side of the ball. The Decision to Step Back Since taking over as head coach in 2020, Stefanski has called offensive plays for the Browns. Under his leadership, Cleveland’s offense initially flourished, particularly during the 2020 season when the team made a rare playoff appearance, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round. Stefanski's offensive schemes, emphasizing a run-heavy attack and play-action passes, played a key role in maximizing the talents of qu...

Who is Caleb Martin.

If the average NBA fan didn't know who Miami Heat guard Caleb Martin was before Monday's Eastern Conference final Game 7 against the Boston Celtics, they certainly know now. Especially Celtics fans.

Martin started for the first time in the series, played 45 minutes and scored 26 points on 11-of-16 shooting, while also grabbing 10 rebounds as the Heat avoided a monumental collapse and beat the Celtics 103-84 to advance to the NBA Finals where they will take on the Denver Nuggets starting Thursday night.

Martin, a Mocksville, North Carolina native, who also attended Oak Hill Academy in Virginia, started his collegiate career at North Carolina State in 2014 playing two seasons there before transferring to Nevada. After sitting out the 2016-17 season because of NCAA transfer rules, Martin blossomed during his first season with the Wolf Pack, averaging 18.9 points and 5.4 rebounds on his way to being named Mountain West Conference Player of the Year. During his senior season, he upped that average to 19.2 points a game.

Martin actually went undrafted in 2019, although his twin brother Cody, with whom he played alongside in college, ended up being selected by the Charlotte Hornets in the second round. Caleb Martin then signed a contract with the Hornets as an undrafted free agent, but he was released before the 2021 season. Martin signed a two-way contract with Miami in September 2021, playing with the Sioux Falls Skyforce and the Heat. He played 60 games with the Heat, averaging 9.2 points as a key contributor off the bench, and parlayed that into a three-year, $20 million deal. fter Martin was cut by the Hornets, he found himself working out at a gym owned by Grammy Award-winning rap artist and North Carolina native J. Cole. 

J.Cole reached out to former NBA player and Heat assistant coach Caron Butler. Butler told The Charlotte Observer that the Heat were always looking to upgrade talent on the roster.

"He had reached out to me and told me he had a very, very talented guy that was just wrecking shop up here in North Carolina," Butler said to The Charlotte Observer.

"(J. Cole) reached out to me and I just invited (Martin) to an open scrimmage in the summer, and from that point on he really earned his way on. But J. Cole having the foresight in knowing Caleb can come and help a contending team was just amazing."

Carter Family Statement about Health of First Lady Rosalynn Carter

Image
ATLANTA — The Carter family is sharing that former First Lady Rosalynn Carter has dementia. She continues to live happily at home with her husband, enjoying spring in Plains and visits with loved ones. Mrs. Carter has been the nation’s leading mental health advocate for much of her life. First in the Georgia Governor’s Mansion, then in the White House, and later at The Carter Center, she urged improved access to care and decreased stigma about issues surrounding mental health. One in 10 older Americans have dementia, a condition that affects overall mental health. We recognize, as she did more than half a century ago, that stigma is often a barrier that keeps individuals and their families from seeking and getting much-needed support. We hope sharing our family's news will increase important conversations at kitchen tables and in doctor’s offices around the country. As the founder of the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers, Mrs. Carter often noted that there are only fou...

Following years of his shenanigans, speeches, and introduction of countless Blacklisters, fans had to bid farewell in heartbreaking fashion. Below, NBC Insider breaks down the fateful moment, and why our favorite anti-hero met his end in such a specific way. How did Red die on The Blacklist'? While on a walk in the Spanish countryside, Reddington was trampled by a bull and killed. n the moments that led up to the fatal interaction, Red and the animal had a standoff, staring at one another before the bull began to charge at him. While fans didn't see the moment of impact, in the next scene Ressler (Diego Klattenhoff) — who tracked Red down and zeroed in on him in Spain – spots Red's body from a helicopter and finds him crumpled, bloodied, and unresponsive...

U.S. Senate Passes Unemployment Extension

Image
The U.S. Senate passed a bill which had a provision for renewed unemployment extension benefits.  Florida's U.S. Senator Bill Nelson voted for the bill while Senator Marco Rubio voted against the bill. Following his vote against H.R. 2055, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2012, Senator Marco Rubio issued the following statement: “This massive 1,200-plus page bill represents everything that is wrong with Washington. Our country faces major economic challenges, but Congress wasted the whole year stuck in partisan gridlock only to pass a funding bill that solves none of our problems, just to avoid a government shutdown.  This plan spends too much, wastes precious taxpayer dollars to fund a menu of job-killing regulations, anti-life provisions and earmarks, and has been ushered through Congress in a highly secretive and non-transparent manner that didn’t allow for consideration of even a single amendment. I cannot support it.” Both of Brevard County's U.S. Representa...
