    The NFL has accused its players association of encouraging running backs to exaggerate injuries to gain leverage in contract negotiations — something that NFLPA president JC Tretter hinted at earlier this summer. Also, Colorado football has now sold out all its home games for the first time ever, and the XFL and USFL are nearing a merger.

    Plus, we hear from Washington Mystics star Elena Delle Donne on her career and the state of the WNBA amid a surge of interest in women’s sports.
