  1. ...how did this so quickly disappear?....... Federal investigators had been looking into the finances behind a real estate deal for the now defunct Burlington College, where Jane Sanders served as president from 2004 to 2011. In 2010, she had worked out a $10 million deal for the college to buy 32 acres of waterfront land in Burlington on Lake Champlain and a 77,000-square-foot former orphanage and administrative offices of Vermont’s Roman Catholic Church, which needed the money to settle a series of priest sex abuse cases. Jane Sanders, a longtime political adviser to her husband, promised at the time that the deal would be paid for with increases in enrollment and about $2.7 million in donations. She left the school a year later. The enrollment increase and the promised donations didn’t happen and by 2014, the college had about $11 million debt. It sold much of the waterfront land and closed in 2016, with officials citing debt from the land deal as a major reason.
  2. ...interesting........ Buffalo Bills offensive lineman retires over 'fear of the unknown' By Ryan Gaydos | Fox News Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Isaac Asiata announced his retirement Tuesday, citing anxiety and “fear of the unknown” in a heartfelt message posted on social media. Asiata, 26, spent two seasons with the Miami Dolphins after the team selected him in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He signed with the Bills in the offseason but made the decision to retire. “I have lived the last two years of my NFL career waging war with myself mentally,” Asiata wrote. “With constant anxiety, persistent worry and fear of the unknown and of what comes next? If I were to be done.” https://www.foxnews.com/sports/buffalo-bills-isaac-asiata-retirement-anxiety

Rob Ryan “never lost confidence” in two years out of coaching Posted by Michael David Smith on July 30, 2019, 4:58 PM EDT Rob Ryan is back in an NFL training camp this year, coaching linebackers in Washington, after two years out of the league. He’s as confident as ever. Ryan, who got fired as the Bills’ assistant head coach on the same day in 2016 that his brother, Rex Ryan, was fired as head coach, says he’s glad to be back in the NFL and never doubted that he could get the job done. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/07/30/rob-ryan-never-lost-confidence-in-two-years-out-of-coaching/#comments

Lawsuit accuses Cowboys, police of covering up severity of Ezekiel Elliott car accident Posted by Mike Florio on July 30, 2019, 4:57 PM EDT When the holdout of running back Ezekiel Elliott became official, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones mentioned his support of Elliott in connection with his 2017 suspension. There’s another incident that could comes to mind for Jones, if the allegations of a new lawsuit are true. Via TMZ.com, the civil action filed regarding a January 2017 car accident involving Elliott claims that the Cowboys “conspired with the Frisco Police Dept. to cover up the severity of the accident to assure that Elliott’s health would not be placed in question before their playoff game.” https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/07/30/lawsuit-accuses-cowboys-police-of-covering-up-severity-of-ezekiel-elliott-car-accident/
