Things got spicy before the ball was even snapped in the Broncos’ divisional matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium.NFL Network analyst Steve Smith Sr. stood on the sideline, doing a pregame segment when Jerry Jeudy got in the shot, jumping back and forth while nodding his head to the music blasting throughout the stadium.Jeudy appeared to be getting in the zone ahead of the Thursday Night Football matchup, but the Broncos wide receiver wanted to make a statement toward Smith, who’d recently called Jeudy out on his podcast — calling him “just a guy.”The former Panthers wide receiver said on the Amazon Prime broadcast that he tried to apologize for his comments. But Jeudy wasn’t having it. And Smith didn’t take the disrespect lightly, staring straight into the camera afterward and calling Jeudy an average wide receiver that teams should avoid trading for ahead of the deadline.Smith’s comments circled across social media a...

House engulfed in flames after car crashes into it

A car veered off the 15 Freeway early Thursday morning, crashed through a chain-link fence and plowed into the garage of a Temecula home with eight people inside, causing a massive explosion.  Siblings Gaby Rivera and Angel Vega were just two of the people inside at 2:45 a.m. when the car came crashing down causing fire to race through the residence.  “All of a sudden, I hear screeching and that had somewhat woken me up,” Angel told KTLA’s Rick Chambers. “Then the next you thing know, a loud crash and bang.” He said the car hit the gas line and the fuse box. Within a matter of seconds, they started seeing the flames.  “It was scary. I’m trying to run my grandma out and the flames are right next to us,” Angel explained. “It was definitely very traumatic.”  A home in Temecula burned to ashes after a car on the 15 Freeway veered off the roadway and into the residence on Oct. 12, 2023.

(AP) — Nic Hague and Nicolas Roy scored in the final 2 minutes of the second period and the Vegas Golden Knights spoiled San Jose’s season opener by beating the Sharks 4-1 on Thursday night.The teams were locked in a tight game before Vegas broke it open with the goals from Hague and Roy 53 seconds apart.Michael Amadio also scored and Brayden Pachal added his first career goal to help the defending champions win their second straight to open the season. “Tonight I thought it was our guys that we don’t typically rely on that did a lot,” coach Bruce Cassidy said. “That shows you’re a good team when you don’t need your top guys to have their ‘A’ games all the time. Tonight I thought some of them were fine, but not dominant like they can be and have been. … It’s not the usual suspects and you need that if you’re going to be a good team.”Logan Thompson made 22 saves in his first regular-season game since being sidelined by a lower-body injury last March.“I’m ...
