“This morning the league trying to move forward while facing serious allegations from its past” -- NBC’s Miguel Almaguer, on the NFL facing charges or workplace misconduct ( “Today,” NBC, 5/5).
“There is certainly attention and scrutiny on the sport. But I think over the last couple of years there’s been more attention to horse health and horse safety than ever before. Look, this is a big party but the people who care for these horses and train them, love them and want to see them stay healthy and that’s what we’re seeing going on in the sport” -- NBC’s Mike Tirico, on four horses dying recently at Churchill Downs, two of them trained by Saffie Joseph Jr., who has been suspended ( “Today,” NBC, 5/5).
