Cortina craves bobsled revival with 2026 Olympics
(AP Photo/Gabriele Facciotti)CORTINA D'AMPEZZO โ CORTINA D'When Cortina's century-old bobsled track closed for financial reasons 13 years ago, the adjacent coffee bar kept on serving espressos. Or the days when his brother would drive him down the twisty track in a two-man bobsled. A spectacle that locals hope can be rekindled for the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics. AdโYouโve got to build tracks where thereโs some sort of tradition,โ said Gianfranco Rezzadore, the president of the Bob Club Cortina. โThis,โ said Costantini, the Bob Bar owner, โis a golden chance.โ___AP Sports Writer Graham Dunbar in Geneva contributed to this report.
QB Jones inactive for Giants; McCoy to start at Seattle
(AP Photo/Aaron Doster)The New York Giants will be without starting quarterback Daniel Jones for Sundayโs game against the Seattle Seahawks. Jones was not expected to play because of a hamstring injury suffered last week against Cincinnati. Colt McCoy will make his first start of the season at QB for the Giants. Seattle was without both starting right tackle Brandon Shell (ankle) and backup Cedric Ogbuehi (calf) leaving a major question on the offensive line. ___CLEVELAND-TENNESSEEBrowns: WR Taywan Taylor, WR KhaDarel Hodge, CB Denzel Ward, RB Dontrell Hilliard, S Tedric Thompson, DE Joe Jackson.
