NFL-SUPER BOWL-SNOW JAM

Atlanta sounds alarm over snow; New England fans unfazed

UNDATED (AP) — Atlanta got a mere spritzing of rain Tuesday, hours after a winter weather forecast prompted authorities to close government offices, shutter schools and cancel flights in anticipation of icy streets.

But the southern city was experiencing abnormally frosty conditions as fans arrived for the Super Bowl, with temperatures dropping into the 30s on Tuesday.

New England Patriots fans in town for the game did not panic. Patriots’ coach Bill Belichick was holed up in the team’s hotel downtown, and was oblivious to the weather conditions.

Some snow from the feared storm did fall Tuesday in Georgia’s northwest corner, but it was sweater weather during Atlanta’s morning commute

MLB-BLUE JAYS-GALVIS

Freddy Galvis, Blue Jays agree to one-year deal

NHL-HURRICANES-MARTINOOK

Carolina signs Martinook to two-year extension

UNDATED (AP) — The Carolina Hurricanes have signed forward Jordan Martinook to a two-year contract extension worth an average of $2 million per season.

General manager Don Waddell said Tuesday that Martinook’s extension will begin next season.

The 26-year-old Martinook has 10 goals and three assists in 50 games while leading the team with 125 hits and blocking 28 shots — the most by a Carolina forward.

The Hurricanes acquired him in May from Phoenix in the deal that sent center Marcus Kruger to the Coyotes. Martinook is making $1.85 million this season and would have been a restricted free agent on July 1.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL-OVERTIME RULES

NCAA looks to decrease chances of marathon OT football games

UNDATED (AP) — The NCAA football rules committee later this month will consider changing the overtime format. The goal is to make it less likely for games to go beyond two extra possessions for each team.

Among the more radical ideas set to be discussed is going to a 2-point-conversion shootout after teams have played two full OT possessions.

The current format, implemented in 1996, gives each team possession at the opponent’s 25-yard line, and repeats the process until one team has outscored the other. After two possessions by each team, the offense must try a 2-point conversion instead of kicking an extra point after a touchdown.

The rules committee will also consider eliminating point-after-touchdown kicks in overtime, forcing teams to go for 2 from the very first possession.

MURRAY-HIP SURGERY

3-time major champion Andy Murray says he had hip operation

UNDATED (AP) — Andy Murray says he had hip resurfacing surgery and had a metal joint implanted.

The three-time major champion posted a message Tuesday on Instagram saying he had the operation Monday in London.

Murray says he is “feeling a bit battered and bruised.”

The post includes two pictures — one shows Murray in a hospital bed, the other shows an X-ray.

He has dealt with hip pain for years and already had an operation in January 2018.

After losing in the first round of the Australian Open two weeks ago, Murray said he would decide quickly whether to have surgery again.

He said at a news conference before the Australian Open that it might wind up being the last tournament of his career.
