    USC’s Ronald Jones selected in second round of NFL draft, followed by Uchenna Nwosu and Rasheem Green
    The wait on Friday was not long for Ronald Jones.
    The former USC running back was picked a half-hour into the start of the second round of the NFL draft, nabbed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with the No. 38 overall selection.
    Jones had hoped to slip toward the end of the first round, waiting for several hours Thursday night, but instead saw three running backs taken ahead of him, including Penn State’s Saquon Barkley, San Diego State’s Rashaad Penny and Georgia’s Sony Michel.

    Brodt homers twice as Huntington Beach regroups for uplifting win over Fountain Valley
    FOUNTAIN VALLEY – One way to erase the memory of a difficult loss is to come right back with an uplifting victory.
    Huntington Beach’s Justin Brodt made sure that happened.
    Brodt went 3 for 4 with two home runs and five RBIs to lead the Oilers to a 6-2 come-from-behind victory over Fountain Valley in a Sunset League game Friday at Fountain Valley High.
    The victory came two days after the Barons delivered a 20-4 pummeling of the Oilers, who are ranked No.1 in CIF-SS Division 1 and in O

    Rams draft offensive tackle Joseph Noteboom in third round after lengthy wait
    THOUSAND OAKS – The Rams waited longer than any other NFL team to make a selection in this year’s draft. When they did, late in the third round Friday night, they made a large investment in their future.
    Joseph Noteboom is the newest Rams player and, if all goes well in the next couple years, he could become starting left tackle. The Rams selected Noteboom, listed at 6-foot-5 and 306 pounds, out of TCU with the No. 89 overall pick, after a long wait and an additional brief delay.

    New to MoviePass? You’ll get fewer movies per month now
    MoviePass, a startup that lets customers watch a movie a day at theaters for just $10 a month, is limiting new customers to just four movies a month.
    The move comes as the sustainability of MoviePass’ business model comes into question. Because MoviePass is paying most theaters the full price of the ticket, the service loses money with just one or two movies in a month. The average ticket price in the U.S. is about $9, though $15 and up is common in big cities.
