Actor Martin Kove, who played Kreese, the evil sensei on the Cobra Kai series and the Karate Kid movies, was kicked out of a fan convention in Puyallup, WA, over the weekend for forcibly biting and trying to kiss Cobra Kai co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim. According to reports, he grabbed her arm and bit in when she passed by his table at the convention, then tried to kiss the arm before she pulled it away. Later, Kove told Hannah-Kim what he did was "in fun" and she and her husband decided to contact the police. When police arrived, Hannah-Kim declined to press charges, but Kove was "escorted" out of the convention.

Rays' Wander Franco found guilty of sexually abusing 14-year-old girl

Tampa Bay Rays All-Star shortstop Wander Franco received a two-year suspended prison sentence Thursday when he was found guilty of sexual abuse of a minor in the Dominican Republic, which could end his baseball career.

Franco, 24, who signed an 11-year, $182 million contract in 2021, will remain on Major League Baseball's restricted list.

If he’s unable to secure a visa to work in the United States because of the guilty verdict, he won’t be able to play again in MLB. Even if Franco is able to obtain a visa in the future, the Rays could seek to have the remaining $133 million remaining on his contract voided based on violating moral turpitude.

Former Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has been suspended for the first 10 weeks of the 2025 regular season after the NFL found that he violated its personal conduct policy, the league announced Thursday.

Tucker can serve the suspension as a free agent and is free to sign with an NFL team. If he were to sign with a team, he could attend training camp and play in preseason games before the suspension starts Aug. 26.

He is eligible for reinstatement Nov. 11, the NFL said.

Tucker, 35, was accused of sexual misconduct by 16 massage therapists from eight high-end spas and wellness centers in the Baltimore area, according to The Baltimore Banner. All of the alleged misconduct reportedly occurred between 2012 and 2016, during Tucker's first five seasons in the NFL.

The Ravens released Tucker on May 5, parting ways with the league's most accurate kicker during the NFL's investigation.
