View MoreA case can be made … for almost anything, as far as the Giants and what they need to accomplish in this week’s NFL Draft, specifically what they need to get done Thursday night in the first round. Unless they trade up or down, the Giants will make their selection after five players are off the board, and there are several routes they could go with the No. 6 overall pick. Some cases are easier to make than others, even as this is the time of year when theories and propaganda and small lies and bigger ones run rampant. For NFL general managers, it is Smokescreen Season. There is no reason for any of them to be transparent and lay out what they are planning. Strategy and gamesmanship are tools that can and should be used to gain any possible advantage in the draft.
After the planet’s warmest year on record and a record number of heat-related deaths in 2023 for some cities across the nation, U.S. agencies developed a tool to combat heat exposure that anyone with a computer or smartphone can access. NOAA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention partnered to address the skyrocketing number of heat-related deaths each year. The result is called HeatRisk. “Climate change is causing more frequent and intense heat waves that are longer in duration, resulting in nearly 1,220 deaths each year in the U.S. alone,” said NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad in a statement. “Last year was the warmest year on record for…

Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery was “confused” as to why Rangers forward Artemi Panarin wasn’t penalized for his big hit on T.J. Oshie that forced the Caps forward out of their Game 2 loss to the Blueshirts in their first-round playoff series. Panarin appeared to catch Oshie high as he was going in for a check midway through the third period, and the latter was removed from the game after a concussion spotter made the call. “They said it wasn’t a minor penalty was the only explanation I got. I asked a few follow-up questions with regards to leaving feet,…

SAN FRANCISCO — The broad countdown to Francisco Alvarez’s return to the Mets lineup began Tuesday when the catcher underwent surgery to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his left thumb. Alvarez, according to the team, is expected to need an eight-week rehab — which would place his earliest return into late June.

Alvarez initially said the timetable for return would be six to eight weeks, but it appears the Mets will play it conservatively with him.…
