Trump is creating a task force for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is establishing a task force on the 2028 Olympic Games being held in Los Angeles. Trump will sign an executive order on Tuesday to make the task force official, the White House said. Trump has said that the Los Angeles Summer Games are among the events he's most looking forward to in his second term. The 2028 Games will be the first Olympics to be hosted by the U.S. since the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Utah. Trump 'considers it a great honor to oversee this global sporting spectacle,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement, calling sports one of the president's 'greatest passions.' LA28 president and chair Casey Wasserman said the task force "marks an important step forward in our planning efforts and reflects our shared commitment to delivering not just the biggest, but the greatest Games the world has ever seen in the summer of 2028.'

Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs remains out of practice after undergoing knee procedure
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs has undergone a surgical procedure on his knee that will keep him out of training camp for now. Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday he didn't want to speculate on when Hobbs might return. Green Bay Packers on SI first reported Hobbs' injury and said he could return in about three weeks. 'I'm not going to put a timetable on it, but unfortunately he had to have something cleaned up,' LaFleur said. 'We're hoping to get him back here sooner than later.' Hobbs didn't practice on Thursday or Saturday. LaFleur said he believed the injury occurred during a collision in training camp. The Packers signed Hobbs to a four-year, $48 million contract in March after he spent his first four seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 26-year-old Hobbs started 38 games, forced three fumbles and intercepted three passes during his time in Las Vegas. Hobbs is expected to help the Packers absorb the loss of two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jaire Alexander, who got released in June and has since signed with the Baltimore Ravens. The Packers entered training camp with Keisean Nixon, Hobbs and Carrington Valentine as their top three cornerbacks. The Packers have attempted to boost their cornerback depth by having wide receiver Bo Melton work primarily on defense in training camp. They also added a familiar face Monday by signing Corey Ballentine, three days after the Indianapolis Colts released him. Ballentine, 29, made seven starts and appeared in 37 regular-season games and three playoff contests with the Packers from 2022-24. He contributed primarily on special teams last season. '(He's) a guy that's got experience and knows our system not only on defense but on 'we-fense,'' LaFleur said, referring to the nickname the Packers have for special teams. 'Really excited to see him.' ___ AP NFL:

Milan Mayor On AC Milan & Inter Purchasing San Siro: 'September Decisive, Sale Of Stadium A Personal Objective'
Milan Mayor Beppe Sala has confirmed that September will be a decisive month in the potential sale of San Siro. Speaking to RTL 102.5 via FCInterNewsit, he revisited the long-standing issue surrounding the sale of the iconic stadium. Of course, it's not just about the venue. AC Milan and Inter have been persistent in their effort to buy San Siro and the surrounding areas. However, the process has not gone as smoothly as the Serie A giants had hoped. Indeed, bureaucratic hurdles and political debates have significantly slowed down the progress. Meanwhile, the Milan clubs remain unfazed, looking to complete the purchase next month. Furthermore, Beppe Sala has made this project a personal mission. Though the sale is beyond his control, Sala wants Milan and Inter to succeed in their ambition to build a new stadium. He views the clubs' joint project as a necessity, especially with the 2032 UEFA European Championship on the horizon. Indeed, Italy will co-host the tournament, with San Siro at risk of being omitted as a host venue. Needless to say, it would be a disaster. Milan Mayor Beppe Sala Offers His Stance on San Siro MILAN, ITALY – APRIL 23: General view outside the stadium prior to the coppa Italia Semi Final match between FC Internazionale and AC Milan at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on April 23, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) 'We'll see what happens in September,' Sala said. 'We must go through the City Council because they must approve transactions involving public property. 'San Siro is one of my goals – not the most important, of course – but I've been working on this for years, also out of personal dignity. 'At first, we considered a lease agreement, then we explored renovation, and now we're pursuing a sale,' he continued. 'Out of personal dignity, I want to carry this initiative forward, but it must be approved by the Council. 'From my point of view, I want a clear conscience – I want to do my job to the end. Then we'll see if politics will follow this path. 'What I've noticed – as someone who has always traveled a lot and remains very curious about what's happening around the world – is that major cities usually have new stadiums. 'San Siro isn't new, and I'll stop here because I know this will spark controversy. 'But modern times must push for change. 'Milan is a city of change, so I vote in favor and will vote in favor because I too vote in the City Council. 'Then we'll see what happens.'
