Matt Jones Beats Spieth and Scott
On the final day of the Australian Open Matt Jones held on to win the prestigious title. Jones was 9 under while Spieth and Scott finished at 7 under. This win qualified Jones for The Open Chamionship. Scott started 9 shots back but carded a 65 to move within two of the lead. Spieth missed an eagle putt at the 18th to tie the lead. This year is an important year for golfers who want to play in the olympics. A win here for Matt Jones will certainly impress team USA's captain.

Fantasy Gambling Sites on Sports News
Should major sports news companies work with Draft Kings and Fan Duel. The Answer is no. Sites like Fan Duel and Draft Kings are a temporary fad in professional sports and shouldn't be given the respect some people think they deserve. Most states are trying to ban online fantasy gambling which isn't promising. I think the sports world should focus more on the actual sport and their favorite team rather than wanting a specific player to do well so the gambler financially benefits.
Kid Danny
Danny Almonte was a star little league baseball player. He had a 78 mph fastball which from an MLB mound would of been a whopping 103 MPH pitch. Danny led his little league team all the way to Little League World Series in 2001 with throwing a no hitter in the Mid-Atlantic Regionals against State College, Pennsylvania. His actual age was questioned but his birth certificate had been lost when he moved to the United States. After the New York teams 3rd place finish the allegations came out that Danny was actually 14 and not 12. The teams titles were stripped and Dannys baseball career was forever tainted.

Gambling On Youth Football
Youth Football is one of the biggest youth sport programs in the the United State. An Outside The Lines investigative video showed a culture of gambling on pop warner football in a league in Florida. Its hard to believe that people would gamble thousands of dollars on 7-10 year olds. But its a growing problem in Florida. Youth sports is supposed to be about having fun and setting a good example for the young kids playing the sport. Not betting on them!! These kids are looking up to degenerate gamblers which is obviously not a good example! Something needs to change for the sake of the children and their families who are just trying to enjoy the game of football.

Is Greg Hardy a criminal or just a cowboy?
Almost a year and a half ago Greg Hardy was involved in a domestic violence incident. After a night of partying with friends and girlfriend Nicole Holder the group went back to Hardys apartment to crash. Holder says that later that night the two were in a room together when an argument between them started. She says Hardy threw her into a bathtub then started choking her and afterwards pulled her out of the bathroom by her hair. Hardys story is a little different. He says that Holder went ballistic. She was freaking out and attacking Hardy with shoes and anything else she could get her hands on. Police were called by both parties and Hardy was arrested on the immediate evidence of the bruising on Holder. The case was later dropped and Holder received a settlement to stop speaking of the incident.
The NFL cannot suspend Greg Hardy unless he is proven guilty that he did actually assault Nicole Holder. Although based on the pictures of the bruises and overall story a normal person is inclined to believe that Hardy did assault his girlfriend. This is one case that will get away from the NFL and let another controversial player on the field.
