The film isn’t over yet. At least not for Gabby Williams. Just weeks ago, the French star gave Team USA a run for their money as she kept at their tails in the Paris Olympics Finals. Even till the end, she pushed herself with the buzzer beater. Alas, it came short by mere inches. She left the Bercy Arena with a silver medal. However, she has returned to the WNBA to probably avenge the loss and also improve her resume in one of the best professional basketball leagues in the world. But how does that affect the Seattle Storm?
Certainly, the Storm squad and Noelle Quinn would be more than happy to add a star who broke a sweat on a dominant team like the USA. However, their front office just might not be feeling that way if their gamble turns into an epic failure. According to Richard Cohen of the Her Hoop Stats, “Can confirm via source that Gabby Williams signed for the $23,491 that was the pro-rated vet minimum on Tuesday when she signed. So Seattle have $704 in cap space left – technically enough to add a 12th player on the final day of the regular season. #WNBA.”

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump speaks during a campaign event inside the Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on Aug. 17, 2024. For the Washington Post
Former President Donald Trump did not hold back as Democratic nominee Kamala Harris delivered her acceptance speech Thursday night, firing off a series of scathing, insulting and sometimes unrelated comments while Harris was speaking.
Trump took to his Truth Social account to make a variety of comments, from accusing Harris of falsehoods to defending his record to making extraneous remarks, such as demanding “WHERE’S HUNTER?” in reference to President Joe Biden’s son.
At the outset of Harris’s speech, Trump took exception to how she thanked the crowd for cheering her onstage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Trump also complained that Democrats referred to Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, as “coach,” pointing out that he was an assistant coach of a high school football team.
While Harris recounted her upbringing, Trump urged her to address his three main issues: “Border, Inflation, and Crime!”
“Kamala’s biography won’t lower prices at the Grocery Store, or at the Pump!” he said. He repeatedly criticized her for not already implementing her proposals during her time as vice president, a critique he has previously aimed at Republican and Democratic opponents with long records of government service. Still, Trump himself has already served a term as president.
Trump’s rapid-fire commentary created the unprecedented spectacle of a former president and current nominee firing off critiques of his rival’s acceptance speech in real time. While Harris’s speech was in many ways a traditional convention address, Trump’s unorthodox reaction to it underlined his harsh, visceral style of politics and suggested the former president was glued…

WILKES-BARRE, PA –On a day not favorable to front-end horses at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania, the International Moni sophomore gelding Sainthood came first-over, ducked to the inside, then moved up in the famous Pocono Pike to catch pacesetting favorite Royal Emeralds in 1:54.4 in the $15,000 featured harness racing trot on Monday, August 12.

Favored Royal Emeralds, going for her third straight win, went right to the lead and put out fractions of :27.3, :57, and 1:25.2, having a clear advantage most of the race. The Joe Pavia Jr.-trained Sainthood, who equaled his mark for Bay Pond Racing Stable, moved up to get into striking position, then caught the leader to win by three-quarters of a length, with a late-charging Wish List only another neck back.
SAINTHOOD REPLAY
George Napolitano Jr. drove Sainthood and watching George battle with Matt Kakaley for the top rung on the Pocono drivers’ victory ladder is like watching a heavyweight prizefight. Bam – George wins four on Saturday. Boom – Matt comes back with three on Sunday. On Monday’s card, Napolitano had four wins and Kakaley two, leaving Matt with a 185-184 lead over George – at least at this very moment.
After Tuesday racing at 1 p.m., it will be time for the biggest day of the Pocono racing year this Saturday, with $2,300,000 to be distributed on Sun Stakes Saturday, with the top three-year-old and Invitational horses in North America, such as Legendary Hanover and Jiggy Jog S, coming to the mountain oval to add to their reputations during a 14-race card that begins at 2:30 p.m. Free Pocono programs are or will be available at
TAHLEQUAH, OK – Cherokee Nation honored artists in a special reception at Cherokee Springs Plaza, previewing the 29th annual Homecoming Art Show. The show is now open to the public and on display through Sept. 7 in the gallery located next to the Cherokee National Research Center.
“This show continues to be such a special time and opportunity for our Cherokee artists every year,” said Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. “We are pleased to honor our talented artists and the work they do as culture keepers to promote and preserve Cherokee culture for future generations.”
The juried show and competition features 135 pieces by 87 artists, including the following six Cherokee National Treasures: Harry Oosahwee, Lisa Rutherford, Lena Stick, Michael Dart, Kathy Van Buskirk and Troy Jackson.
This year’s Best of Show was awarded to sculptor Troy Jackson for his nearly 3-foot-tall ceramic vessel “Cherokee Rose 3, Continuance.”
“Year after year, our talented Cherokee artists show a commitment to the preservation and promotion of authentic Cherokee culture,” said Callie Chunestudy, Cultural Programs and Events Project Manager. “We hope that as the public gathers to celebrate the 72nd annual Cherokee National Holiday, guests will stop by and explore the beautiful works from our artists who continue to keep the Cherokee culture thriving.”
Artists competed for their share of more than $18,000 in prize money in two divisions, traditional and contemporary, alongside various specialty awards. The traditional division is defined as “arts originating before European contact” and consists of three categories: basketry, pottery and traditional arts.
The contemporary division is defined as “arts arising among the Cherokee after European contact” and consists of nine categories, including…
If there was one person who won all hearts with her exemplary performance in the Olympic gold medal game – it was Gabby Williams. In a contest that had neck-to-neck competition, Williams brought back the French time and again into the game. Seeing her performances, Chicago Sky star Angel Reese asked her if she would like to join the Chicago Sky. But Williams’s answer was sturdy since she had had her share of experiences while playing for the Sky from 2018-2021. Taking a look at their conversation on X, WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes has come to the fore to share her take.
Swoopes was present during the Queens of the Court podcast on Tuesday when she expressed her views on the entire Williams-Reese saga. And fans were excited to know how highly Swoopes thinks of Williams.
“I knew we’d get to Gabby later ’cause…. Yeah! I saw Dearica Hamby, Angel Reese reaching out like, ‘Gabby, wanna come back to Chicago? Dearica was like no but I asked first. Without question Gabby Williams needs to be in the league, she needs to go play somewhere. She’s beautiful to watch,” Swoopes stated via The Queens of the Court podcast.
