Rather than force-feed him into practice for the first time since last season’s playoffs, the 49ers had him stretch and do light running while shadowed by head strength coach Dustin Perry.Minus his helmet, Bosa was otherwise in full uniform: shoulder pads, gold pants, white gloves and a snug fitting jersey that was tucked up into his shoulder pads, with a white undershirt shrouding his chiseled abdominal muscles.On Wednesday, Bosa agreed to the richest contract in 49ers history and the NFL’s largest for a non-quarterback: five years, $170 million.

Sonoma Hells Angels member sentenced to five years in federal prison as RICO case continues

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:00:17 GMT

SAN FRANCISCO — A longtime member of the Sonoma Hells Angels was sentenced to five years in federal prison after pleading guilty to involvement in a racketeering conspiracy and an assault, court records show.Russel Lyles Jr. pleaded guilty to a racketeering offense last November, but that doesn’t mean he agrees with the prosecution’s assessment of exactly what crimes he committed. Lyles’ lawyer submitted a 14-page court document filled with objections to a pre-sentencing report, in which Lyles either denies involvement in racketeering crimes, or clarified his motivation for committing various assaults.“Lyles often used his fists to punish individuals for their behavior or to ‘toughen them up,'” his attorney wrote in a document that denies Lyles committed a particular assault to further the Hells Angels’ interest.Nor, apparently, did Lyles agree with everything his fellow Hells Angels did. When he learned through a newspaper report that...

Over the years, there have been rumors and gossip about Jimmy Fallon’s allegedly unhealthy “relationship with alcohol,” with a 2016 report saying that NBC chiefs had asked “The Tonight Show” host to cut back on his drinking over concerns that he was “out of control.”In a lengthy new report by Rolling Stone, staffers suggest that that this unhealthy relationship is still an issue and has contributed to his erratic behavior on the set, which, in turn, has helped turn “The Tonight Show” into “a toxic workplace — far outside the boundaries of what’s considered normal in the high-pressure world of late-night TV.”Two employees told Rolling Stone that they had seen the outwardly affable and goofy Fallon “seemingly inebriated” at work in 2017.
