NFL set to begin hiring and training replacement officials, AP sources say

PHOENIX (AP) — TheNFLis moving forward with plans to begin hiring and training replacement officials in the next several weeks because negotiations with the referees' union have been unsuccessful, two people with knowledge of the discussions told The Associated Press.

Associated Press

Both people spoke on condition of anonymity Sunday because the conversations are private.

The league and the NFL Referees Association have been negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement since the summer of 2024. The current CBAexpires on May 31.

The NFL has increased its offer to a 6.45% annual growth rate in compensation over a six-year labor deal, but the NFLRA wants 10% plus $2.5 million for marketing fees, the people said.

NFLRA executive director Scott Green told The Associated Press on Monday: "those numbers are not accurate." He said negotiations with the league are similar to 2012 when a stalemate resulted in a 110-day lockout and replacement referees were used.

The league wants compensation tied to performance so that only high-performing game officials during the regular season share in the year-end bonus pool.

The league is also seeking greater flexibility to ensure the best officials are on the field during the postseason. The current CBA includes seniority as a factor in making postseason assignments.

Shortening the "dark period" is also a priority for the NFL. Currently, the league has no communication with game officials during the roughly three-month stretch between the Super Bowl and May 15. The goal is to increase access to game officials for rules discussions, video review, mechanics and appropriate football operations and committee meetings in order to improve the game and officials' performance.

The NFL is offering to hire some full-time officials, but one of the people said the union is resisting and is asking for "full-time pay and part-time hours."

Green told the AP the 2012 and 2019 CBA agreements included provisions that would allow some officials to serve in full-time roles. He said the league experimented with this in 2017, 2019 and 2020.

"Each program ended because of their inability to manage it," Green said.

In a statement, Green said:

"Apparently 'League sources' are continuing to put out false and misleading information instead of wanting to meet at the negotiating table. The bottom line is our officials work for the wealthiest sports league in America, with profits that far exceed any of the others. That's normally a point of pride for the NFL. However, our officials are substantially under-compensated when compared to baseball and basketball umpires and referees. Our officials also aren't provided the health care benefits that those at 345 Park Avenue have. As far as performance pay, we had 'high performing officials' who worked this year's championship games and the Super Bowl who were paid less for those games than what they were paid for a regular-season game. That certainly isn't rewarding performance, as the NFL claims is their goal."

In preparation for potential use of replacement officials, the NFL competition committee has proposed a contingency that would allow the replay center in New York to advise the on-field officials on any missed roughing the passer or intentional grounding penalty, as well as any act that would have led to an ejection had a penalty been called. NFL owners will vote on the proposal this week at theannual meeting.

The NFL used replacement officials for the first three weeks of the 2012 season and resulted in several mistakes and wrong calls, including the disputed TD catch known as the "Fail Mary."

UConn's thrilling buzzer-beater, seen from 10 different camera angles

For every iconic moment we see on television during March Madness, there are many other captivating subplots going on at the same time.

USA TODAY Sports

Weaving them all together is what makes the best in the TV production business so great at what they do.

During CBS's coverage ofUConn's improbable 73-72 comeback win over Dukein the Elite Eight, Braylon Mullins' 35-footer to beat the buzzer was obviously the focal point. But the network's camera operators also had to be ready for the reaction shots.

Shortly after the game ended, the NCAA released its own "sizzle reel" with10 different angles of the key game-ending sequenceand its aftermath that wonderfully captures the wide range of emotions.

One angle that didn't make the cut there was a reaction shot of CBS announcers Bill Raftery and Grant Hill as they joined play-by-play man Ian Eagle on the call.

It certainly was a magical moment for UConn. And abitter defeat (once again)for Duke.

It's just another reason why we can't get enough of March Madness.

US reopens embassy in Venezuela months after military operation to remove Maduro

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States has formally reopened its embassy in Caracas, Venezuela, after the restoration of full diplomatic relations with the South American country following the Trump administration's ouster of then-President Nicolas Maduro in early January.

Associated Press

The State Department announced Monday that it had resumed normal operations at the embassy in Caracas — which had been in need of significant repair, including remediations from mold — after a seven-year closure that began during President Donald Trump's first term.

A small team of U.S. diplomats, based in neighboring Colombia, has been working in Caracas for more than a month but the embassy itself had not yet been reopened.

"The resumption of operations at U.S. Embassy Caracas is a key milestone in implementing the president's three phase plan for Venezuela and will strengthen our ability to engage directly with Venezuela's interim government, civil society, and the private sector," the State Department said in a statement.

It said the move marked "a new chapter in our diplomatic presence in Venezuela."

No snow. No water. Restrictions grow across West as drought fears rise

FRISCO, CO ‒ Stretching out in their beach chairs as the temperature climbed toward 70 degrees, Seth and Renee McLaughlin watched their three kids play in the sand on what was supposed to be a family ski trip.

USA TODAY

Booked last November, their spring break vacation to Colorado's mountains required a hard shift in plans following ahistorically warm and dry winter: Instead of zipping down the slopes, the couple watched their kids sift sand into colorful toy buckets on the shores of Lake Dillon.

"It's obviously frustrating. You want to go skiing, and usually we ski until May, and instead we're at the beach," said Seth McLaughlin, 44, a nonprofit consultant. "I feel bad for the folks who spent tens of thousands of dollars to come on vacation here."

The McLaughlins' ruined vacation is a harbinger of what climatologists say will be a dangerously dry summer across the West. In many areas, all-important snowfall has been half of normal, with even hotter, drier temperatures expected in the coming months.

Western water woes deepen, raising drought fears

Much of the nationis in a drought already, but the headwaters of the Colorado River is among the driest places, along with south Texas and all of Florida. Alarmed civic officials across the West have already begun ordering restrictions on watering lawns, cleaning cars and even whether restaurant patrons get served glasses of water.

"We are already assuming our yard is going to be dead this year," said Renee McLaughlin, 44, a physician assistant. "And we're talking to the kids about taking five-minute showers."

The McLaughlins live in a Colorado city that has not yet ordered water restrictions, but many neighboring communities have already begun implementing them. Some ski areas are also closing early due to the heat and lack of snow.

The lake's level is significantly below where it normally is this time of year, and water managers fear it won't refill because there's not enough snow to melt.

Longtime Western water expert Brad Udall said it's hard to put into words just how bad things are. He said the early ski area closures will likely be followed by ranchers selling off cattle, and then skies darkened by wildfire smoke as dry vegetation burns.

For more than two decades, Udall has been studying how climate change is altering the West's water resources. He said 2026 may go down as the worst year for Colorado River flows in recorded history.

"It's really grim. It's horrific," said Udall, a senior climate scientist at Colorado State University's Colorado Water Center. "The impacts are going to be everywhere, throughout the economy and personally. You will feel this personally as it happens."

Based on previous years, a water shortage across the West could have drastic implications for food prices as crops dry up and cattle go thirsty. It would also imperil tens of thousands of businesses that depend on industrial water use, and raise the risk of catastrophic wildfires.

Huge portions of the West areserved by the Colorado River, which starts high in the Rockies before flowing downstream through Lake Powell, Lake Mead outside Las Vegas, and ultimately into California.

Climate experts have long warned that climate change will make the West hotter and drier, and worry that what's happening now represents a long-term shift that could reshape how people live and work across Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and Wyoming. Some water experts say Lake Powell could hit its lowest level ever later this summer.

And the beach where the McLaughlins' kids were playing? That's at Lake Dillon, a key source of drinking water for millions of Colorado residents that today sits at less than 60% full. Under normal circumstances, melting snow would be refilling the reservoir. Instead, the water remains hundreds of feet from the shoreline, with docks stuck in the mud. Little water trickled in, even though it was 70 degrees.

Water restrictions and concerns in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming

∎ At Lake Powell, which straddles the Arizona-Utah line, workers are preparing to move the entire floating Bullfrog Marina across the shrinking lake to the Hall's Crossing area, where the water will stay deeper longer. Water managers are warning that Lake Powell's water levels this year could drop to its lowest recorded level since the lake began filling in the 1960s.

Lake Powell is filled by the Colorado River and uses its water to generate hydroelectricity for about 500,000 households across the Southwest. But if the Colorado Riverflows this year are as low as projected, the lake level could by this fall drop below what's known as "power pool," or the minimum level necessary to spin the turbines.

When it first opened, Lake Powell was big enough to warrant a 30-minute car ferry that shuttled vehicles between Hall's Crossing on the south and Bullfrog on the north, saving drivers two hours of travel time. The ferry no longer runs because the loading ramps are so far from the water's edge. Many of the lake's boat-launch ramps are hanging hundreds of feet above the water level, and workers are once again extending them to reach the new shoreline. Last year, about 3.7 million tourists visited Lake Powell.

∎ Salt Lake City officials, preparing for drought, have temporarily banned the opening of any large non-residential developments that consume significant amounts of water.

While the measure is aimed in part at halting Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officials from opening a 7,500-person detention facility, city leaders said it's simply irresponsible to permit large-scale water use at this time: "New large water users are particularly problematic due to Salt Lake City's worsening drought conditions and water conservation needs, which we are already taking action to address," Mayor Erin Mendenhall said in a statement. City and state officials are also considering ways to protect the long-shrinking Great Salt Lake.

At Mendenhall's orders, city facilities have been ordered to cut their water use by at least 10%, and residents and businesses have been asked to voluntarily conserve 10 million gallons.

∎ In Denver, residents havebeen told to hold off wateringtheir lawns until late May, even though temperatures have repeatedly been in the 80s across the city. The Denver Water Board on March 25 also restricted residential lawn watering to two days a week per house, down from three in normal years. Restaurants are only allowed to serve water to diners who specifically request it. And hotels cannot change sheets more often than four times a week, unless a guest requests it or the room turns over to a new customer.

Because Denver typically gets only about 15 inches of rain a year − Miami receives four times as much, in comparison − the city depends heavily on melting snow to fill reservoirs like Lake Dillon. Water board officials said they are adopting tough measures now to help avoid further problems next summer for their 1.5 million customers across the metro area.

"The conditions we are experiencing are unprecedented, and we need customers to save water to protect the supply we have right now," Nathan Elder, Denver Water's manager of water supply, said in a statement.

∎ In the northern Colorado city of Erie, officialswarned residents and businessesto halt any irrigation until early April, and they warned they could shut off water access to anyone caught wasting water on their lawns. Erie gets most of its water from melting snow that's piped across the Continental Divide, and that area saw unusually poor snow this winter.

"This is an extraordinary measure for an extremely precarious situation," city officials said in a March 20 announcement. "Demands are currently approaching 30% higher than usual at this time of year."

∎ In Wyoming, state officials have already told some water users to cut back to preserve supplies for the coming summer. And federal officials are expected to draw down one of the state's largest reservoirs, Flaming Gorge, to put water into Lake Powell during the hot summer months. State Engineer Brandon Gebhart warned some communities to prepare for not having adequate drinking water supplies in the coming months.

Why four-time world champion Max Verstappen is considering walking away from F1

He may be a four-time world champion and one of the faces ofFormula 1, butMax Verstappenis not having a good time in thesporthe once loved.

For a while now, the Dutchman has seemed unsettled and unhappy with the direction F1 is heading, so much so that he's now openly considering walking away from the sport entirely at the end of the season.

The 28-year-old's frustrations came to the fore again after the Red Bull driver finished eighth at the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend, venting his grievances to the media after the race.

"I keep telling myself every day to try and enjoy it. It's just very hard," Verstappen toldBBC Sport.

"I'm thinking about everything inside this paddock. I mean, privately, I'm very happy. But you wait for 24 races, this time 22, but normally 24, and then you just think about is it worth it?

"Or do I enjoy actually being more at home with my family, seeing my friends more when you're not enjoying your sport?"

'Formula E on steroids'

It's a damning indictment for the sport that one of its biggest names is no longer taking much joy from the competition.

Many of his issues stem from the new regulations that have changed the way teams and drivers strategize during races. More focus is now on managing an on-board battery and using electrical energy to improve performance.

Earlier this year, Verstappen said he was struggling to have fun with the new regulations,describingthe sport as "a bit like Formula E on steroids," arguing it's no longer about pure racing.

In addition to his issues within the sport, Verstappen is also entering a new chapter of his life off the track. The star and his long-term partnerwelcomed their first child last year, and it seems Verstappen is relishing spending quality time with his family.

He's also enjoying working on other projects out of the sport, so much so that the concept of traveling most of the year – to race cars he doesn't like – is no longer as appealing.

"It's really anti-driving," Verstappen added. "Then at one point, it's just not what I want to do.

"Make a lot of money, great. But at the end of the day, it's not about money anymore because this has always been my passion, right? As a kid, this is what I wanted to do, and back then, I had no idea what I was going to achieve.

"I want to be here to have fun, have a great time and enjoy myself. And yeah, at the moment, that's not really the case."

Even before Sunday's race, you could tell Verstappen was in an irritable mood.

Last week, the driver refused to answer any questions at a press conference unless a particular journalist – one he had an issue with for a prior line of questioning – left the room.

It was another symptom of his current unhappiness in the sport which looks to be causing more problems than it's currently solving in his life.

Kimi Antonelli wins again

The obvious context to his comments is the fact Verstappen is no longer as dominant as he once was in the sport.

For years, the Red Bull driver was the benchmark – often cruising through races with rivals unable to challenge his superiority.

But those four consecutive world titles between 2021 and 2024 now seem like a distant memory, with the Dutchman looking unable to compete with the championship leaders so far this season.

That was the case again at the Japanese Grand Prix, with Italian 19-year-old Kimi Antonelli winning his second straight race this season. The Mercedes driver finished over 13 seconds ahead of his nearest rival, following on from the first race win of his career in China two weeks ago.

Antonelli is thesecond youngestdriver to win an F1 race. The youngest? Verstappen, of course.

Despite witnessing a changing of the guard, the Dutch driver argues that he can accept finishing in the middle of the field as long as he's still enjoying the sport. And of course, he's not confirming he definitely will walk away at the end of the season.

His latest comments, though, will pile more pressure on the sport's governing body to listen to what he and some of the other drivers are telling it.

Brooks Naderand Taron Egerton are setting off fresh dating speculation after being spotted together multiple times in Los Angeles. Sources claimed that the two have quietly grown close. The pairing has caught attention not just for its star power, but for how effortlessly the two seem to have slipped into each other's orbit.

Brooks Nader and Taron Egerton were spotted getting drinks at a luxury hotel, claims source

According toreports, Nader and Egerton were first seen kicking off the weekend with a movie date, attending a screening of Project Hail Mary in Los Angeles on Friday. The following night, the duo kept things going with a more intimate outing. They were spotted at the upscale oceanfront hotel Shutters on the Beach. There, they reportedly stopped by the bar before heading out to dinner.

One onlooker described the mood between them as unmistakably close, noting the pair appeared "infatuated" in each other's company throughout the evening.  Insiders also suggest this isn't a brand-new connection. "It wasn't their first date," a source shared. They added that Nader and Egerton knew each other for some time.

The recent outings, however, hint that their relationship may have shifted into something more personal. The initial buzz around the pair's romance was first flagged by gossip platformDeuxMoi, which reported that they were seeing each other.

Nader has previously been linked to several high-profile names. This includes Kevin Costner, tennis stars Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, NFL icon Tom Brady, and her former Dancing With the Stars partner, Gleb Savchenko. She was also married to media executive Billy Haire. However, the couple finalized their divorce in 2024 after spending four years together.

Egerton, meanwhile, previously dated Chloe Bennet, with the pair splitting in mid-2025. Before that, he had a long-term, on-and-off relationship with assistant director Emily Thomas that lasted about six years.

TLC's Chilli says she 'made a mistake' with Trump campaign donations

Rozonda "Chilli" Thomasis speaking out about making donations to campaigns linked to PresidentDonald Trump.

USA TODAY Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas of TLC performs onstage during the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards at Dolby Theatre on April 1, 2024, in Hollywood.

TheTLC singerspoke out Saturday, March 30, following aThe Independent reportearlier in the day that she made nearly $1,000 in donations to Trump's campaign in 2024. But the singer says she was misinformed about what she was donating to.

"I WANT TO BE CLEAR: I am not MAGA and do not support any of the many policies that are causing great harm to the American people," Chilli, 55, wrote onInstagram. "I made a mistake too many make: I did not read the fine print. I thought I was supporting causes against human trafficking and for veterans."

On Saturday, The Independent reported that a Rozonda Thomas of Stone Mountain, Georgia, made donations to the Trump National Committee JFC (joint fundraising committee) and Never Surrender Inc., a political fundraising group linked to Trump, according to Federal Election Commission records reviewed by the outlet.

Chilli said that her dad is a veteran and "everyone knows I love children."

She added, "I have learned a valuable lesson and ask for grace as I navigate this."

The report comes weeks after she faced backlash for allegedly resharing a conspiracy theory aboutMichelle Obamabeing transgender.

In a video accompanying the post, she said what has been "circulating on the internet" has been "very concerning." She added that she had "no clue" she reposted the claim and didn't find out until she started receiving texts and phone calls.
