Raiders owner Mark Davis called it a “dream come true” when he lured Jon Gruden out of the broadcast booth to come back for a second stint as coach in 2018.

The announcement came shortly after a report in the New York Times claimed that Gruden had sent a series of offensive emails while working as an analyst at ESPN.

Jon Gruden again said he is not a racist after his Las Vegas Raiders lost their first game since the revelation of the head coach’s 2011 remark about players’ union leader DeMaurice Smith.

Gruden wrote about Smith in an email to Bruce Allen, who was the then-president of Washington's NFL team, 10 years ago.

Mark Davis has already left his imprint on the Las Vegas Aces in his first year as the team’s owner.

Schertz tentatively expanded its city limits by 214 acres at its Feb. 23 council meeting in a swift unanimous vote, but then spent nearly an hour debating what that expansion would ultimately look like. Another 12.4 acres of the proposed development is already within Schertz’s city limits, explained Nick Koplyay of the city’s planning department. But to erect those homes on the newly acquired land, a zoning change to “planned development district” (PDD) would be required. That is strikingly different than the typical housing projects Schertz usually approves. Earlier in the meeting, Schertz Police Chief Michael Hansen presented the state-required annual racial profiling report for 2020.

The Schertz City Council, concerned about salary inequities among its first responders, created a separate wage system for those departments at its Feb. 9 meeting. The city currently operates on a single unified pay plan with regular merit raises, a system that works well in most departments. Councilman Mark Davis said he was concerned the creation of a new pay scale for public safety workers was only a band-aid solution. Councilwoman Allison Heyward noted the public safety departments have long had pay compression trouble and the city has tried to address those issues for years. “It won’t fix all of them.”All seven council members — including Rosemary Scott, who said she had reservations — voted to approve the new pay system for first responders, effective with February paychecks.

And yet, San Antonio has never been able to attain an NFL franchise.

“As it relates to the Atlanta Dream, we understand a sale of the franchise is close to being finalized,” the league said in a statement. An Atlanta Dream spokeswoman said the team had no comment on the impending sale at this time.

Loeffler, a wealthy businesswoman who had closely aligned herself with Trump, has been an owner of the Dream since 2011. The Dream would be the second WNBA franchise sold this month.

Schertz approves new tax rate, budgetIt took six votes and nearly two hours of debate, but the city of Schertz has almost settled on a new tax rate. Scagliola made the first motion to set the property tax rate at the “no new revenue” effective rate of 50.79 cents. A third effort, offered by Larson, would have made the property tax rate 50.96 cents. Davis pointed out that the council had conducted several budget meetings and had originally agreed to approve a budget with the current tax rate of 51.46 cents. An additional vote to ratify both the new budget and the new tax rate also passed, with both Scagliola and Larson again voting no.
