Happy times for Tiger Woods heading to a Ryder Cup
By Doug Ferguson Published 5:08 pm PDT, Tuesday, September 25, 2018 SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France — Tiger Woods paused on his walk toward the 18th green at Le Golf National and threw his head back in laughter. These are happy times for Woods, regardless of whatever Bryson DeChambeau said to cause such a reaction Tuesday. Now if Woods can get that to translate in the Ryder Cup. For all his amazing feats in golf — 80 victories on the PGA Tour, the most recent Sunday at the Tour Championship after returning following a fourth back surgery that threatened to end his career — Woods has been on only one winning team in the Ryder Cup. That was nearly 20 years ago and required a record comeback on the final day. His record is 13-17-3, a product of being on six losing teams. “Looking back on my entire Ryder Cup career, that’s not something that I have really enjoyed and I’ve really liked seeing,” Woods said. “I’ve played … [Read more...] about Happy times for Tiger Woods heading to a Ryder Cup

Corrupt former Macomb politician a scheming liar, feds say
Robert Snell The Detroit News Published 2:01 p.m. UTC Jul 26, 2018 Detroit — A corrupt Macomb County politician who launched a bid to be released from jail lied about having cancer, lied about his mother's medical problems and essentially committed wire fraud while asking donors to give him $10,000, federal prosecutors said Thursday. The lies by former Clinton Township Trustee Dean Reynolds were revealed in hundreds of recorded phone calls he made from the St. Clair County Jail, where he is being temporarily held pending designation to a federal prison, according to the government. Reynolds, 51, has been jailed since June 21, when a federal jury convicted him of 14 bribery-related charges stemming from the Macomb County corruption scandal. The real reason Reynolds wants out of jail pending sentencing is he wants to try and save his marriage, prosecutors said. Prosecutors want U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland to keep Reynolds in jail, citing a pattern of lies and … [Read more...] about Corrupt former Macomb politician a scheming liar, feds say
