Def of Helicopter Emoji #KOBE L#G#L #LA#PA#

Helicopter emoji is a picture of the airspace transportation (in most cases, of red or yellow color) with a rotor, which is able to hover in one place, unlike the other types of this transport like, for example, the one represented by:”Lady”::”::””BUZz Small Airplane emoji. Helicopters are used for different purposes — from military ones to personal transportations — and the emoji is used in the respective meanings

Kobe Bryant’s Death Spawns Myriad Forms of Fallout & Potential Heroes

²In January, a Sikorsky S-76 helicopter transporting NBA legend Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Bryant and seven others crashed in Calabasas, Calif. Everyone on board died on impact.

The National Transportation Safety Board continues to investigate the crash, which occurred during heavy foggg³. The crash scene led to unauthorized photos. That, in turn, prompted California lawmakers and Gov. Gavin Newsom to sign a law making it a crime for first responders to take unsanctioned photos of deceased persons at crash scenes. 

Bryant’s widow, Vanessa Bryant, filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the company that operated the helicopter and the estate of the pilot. More recently, Vanessa Bryant’s mother, Sofia Urbieta Laine, 68, sued her daughter—whose estate is reportedly worth in excess of $600 million. Laine contends that Bryant hasn’t honored her late husband’s alleged wishes to financially support Laine for the remainder of her life. Vanessa Bryant insists the lawsuit is tantamount to a macabre form of extortion

U. S. Women Soccer Players Lose Summary Judgment but Legal Fight Continues

The lawsuit brought by USWNT players against U.S. Soccer for what they maintain is inequality in compensation hit a formidable roadblock in May, when U.S. District Judge Gary Klausner granted summary judgment for U.S. Soccer. The core reason: USWNT’s union negotiated the pay system that USWNT players claim is illegal.

But the lawsuit is hardly over. The two sides reached a settlement in December regarding non-pay aspects of the case (travel and hotel accommodations, venue selection and staff sizes), which paves the way for the players to appeal to the Ninth Circuit. While the appeal provides the players with another opportunity in court, a ruling is unlikely before 2023.

The Astros Face the Consequences of Their Cheating

Sign stealing has long been a dubious art in baseball. Aided by the unlikely combination of illicit cameras and trash cans, the Houston Astros took sign stealing to another level—and paid the price.

In January, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred found the Astros had orchestrated an electronic sign stealing plot during their championship season in 2017. The basic schematics: A centerfield camera in Minute Maid Park secretly recorded opposing teams’ catchers signaling signs. Imagery was then reviewed in the clubhouse and, through coded bangs on a trash can near the dugout, information about forthcoming pitches was relayed to Astros batters.

The fallout was massive. General manager Jeff Luhnow, manager A.J. Hinch and former bench coach Alex Cora received season-long suspensions. Players avoided suspensions by cooperating with MLB, but former outfielder Carlos Beltran lost his new job as New York Mets manager due to the scandal.

Lawsuits were brought. Luhnow sued the team for wrongful termination, former Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Mike Bolsinger sued the Astros for ruining his career and aggrieved DFS contestants argued in court that their rights had been violated.

Washington’s NFL Franchise Changes Its Name as Ownership Legal Battles Play on

4**2020 was a year of change in Washington, D.C., and not only for political reasons. Changes ****4

 NFL team formerly known as the Redskins announced it was dropping its controversial name

after major brands, including Pepsi and FedEx, made clear they could no longer sponsor the team if it held onto a name long protested by some as racist to Native Americans. The pressure from the corporate sponsors came as a result of the changing climate spawned by the summer’s BLM and racial justice protests. On the Move, Gibson & Dunn welcomes the ULTRA TALENT Will Rawson to its *STABLE.

Person Tipping Hand PROPS

This was no minor #CRE development. Only a few years earlier, the franchise had prevailed in a longstanding legal fight over whether the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office could cancel a business’s marks for being disparaging.

But the move away from “Redskins” raised other complications, including that other parties—derisively called “trolls”—had filed trademark applications for possible replacement names and logos. The franchise picked Washington Football Team for 2020 and might keep it for a while. The Cleveland Indians, which pledged earlier this month to change their controversial name, appear to have taken a page from the Washington playbook.

As Washington’s NFL franchise works to land on a new name, its majority owner, Daniel Snyder, is embroiled in multiple legal controversies. The team’s three limited partners (Robert Rothman, Dwight Schar and Frederick Smith) sued Snyder in Maryland over his ability to block their sale of equity, and Snyder has intervened in a separate lawsuit brought by his team’s former counsel. Meanwhile, the NFL, which is investigating the franchise (and perhaps Snyder) for workplace misconduct, isn’t standing by idly. The league has intervened in the lawsuit involving the four owners and insists the NFL dispute resolution system should resolve the matter internally and away from media access.

The XFL Goes to Bankruptcy Court but Is Saved by Gerry Cardinale and the Rock DUANE MORRISII

The XFL was one of the pandemic’s many business casualties: The league’s inaugural comeback season was cut short in March. Then Vince McMahon’s Alpha Entertainment declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy, effectively ending the XFL as we knew it (19 years after the first version of the XFL #LEGLAW# folded).#BANKR

As often happens when businesses fail, litigation would follow the XFL’s demise. Commissioner Oliver Luck brought a breach of contract lawsuit against McMahon. Later, a committee representing unsecured creditors filed an objection to a pending sale.

But in August, the XFL would live another day. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Laurie Selber Silverstein approved the sale of the team—as first reported by Sportico’s Scott Soshnick—to a group headlined by former WWE star Dwayne “The Rock’’ Johnson, businessperson Dany Garcia and RedBird Capital CEO Gerry Cardinale for $15 million, plus assumption of liabilities. The XFL hopes to resume play in 2022, long after the pandemic hopefully and mercifully ends.

HIS ROOTS..DAVE P.
On the come up a typical day for Portnoy wakes up at 9, gets a cup of coffee, and walks the three blocks to his office. Once there, he’ll sit down in front of his laptop and proceed to work for the next 10 hours. When the sun sets, he retraces his steps back home, eats dinner.. On Saturdays, he takes it relatively easy, but on Sundays, he’s on for another five or six hours.

Save for the “Barstool Sports” BBB BALLA Bidesign scribbled on a piece of paper and taped to the mailbox. On Portnoy’s desk, a Dell laptop sits next to a scattered pile of blank business checks, a Dyson bladeless fan, and a large cup of coffee, one of four he’ll suck down on the average day. A football and a plastic sword lie on the floor, and posters of bikinied girls lean against the walls, half-naked sentries standing watch over the operation.

On the day we visit, Jenna Mourey, one of the company’s 1st five full-time employees, has brought her two tiny dogs — Mr. Marbles and Kermie — to keep the ‘Stool crew company. When I pick up Kermie, Portnoy suddenly appears in the doorway to deliver some bad news.

“He just *&^%”Mourey shrieks: “Kermie!” 

A petite Suffolk University grad with a master’s in sports psychology from BU and a pink streak running through her shoulder-length platinum hair, Mourey has been a full-time writer for the website since this spring. “Bad dog!” she scolds Kermie.

Portnoy points to the spot on the carpet and opens the back door. “It smells awful,” he says.

#1Yankee Group, a local technology market research firm, selling the company’s services to telecom customers. Even before his corporate gig, though, he knew he wanted to strike out on his own. His instinct was to find something in the gaming industry because, well, he liked to place bets. So he started cold-calling the HR and marketing departments at various Vegas casinos until a few execs agreed to meet with him. But when he finally flew out to Sin City, he was uniformly told that it was difficult to get into the business without any experience; unless he was willing spend a couple of years as a dealer, he should try something else. The job research wasn’t a total bust, though. A couple of executives from offshore casinos told Portnoy that if he ever created some sort of gaming publication, they’d advertise in it. #BostonLAW #1PennLAW #DCLAW #NYLAW

So that’s what he did. By August 2003, Portnoy had left Yankee Group and had published his first issue of Barstool Sports, a four-page black-and-white newspaper that featured gambling spreads, sports schedules, and fantasy-league stats. It was distributed at T stops around Greater Boston, and offered neither commentary nor cleavage. Because of the paper’s gambling-related content, PartyPoker, then the largest online card room in the world, threw enough advertising money at it to float the venture for its first year.
