· HORSE RACING: On the morning after Curlin edged Street Sense by a head in the Preakness, trainer Carl Nafzger said he's leaning against running Derby winner Street Sense in the Belmont on June 9.
"Right now, I don't think we probably will," Nafzger said. "There's not really any reason to go there right now."

ESPN.com reported that the 23-year-old Pro Bowl returner was arrested after allegedly punching a woman in a nightclub. He was apprehended following a police chase at 4:20 a.m. According to the report, police said Miller swung at a man, but hit the woman when the man ducked out of the way.
