RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Brazilian soccer confederation chairman Ednaldo Rodrigues said Wednesday that Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti will be in charge of the national team at next year’s Copa America. Ancelotti has still not publicly confirmed any deal with the five-time World Cup champions. Brazil has never had a full-time foreign coach in charge of its national team. But the internal pressure to do so increased after Tite, hailed by many as the best Brazilian coach in the last decade, failed to deliver in the last two editions of the World Cup.Rodrigues spoke to journalists after he introduced Fernando Diniz as the new Brazil coach until July next year in a news conference which featured several questions over the future role of Ancelotti. “He will be, he will be. You can be sure of that,” Rodrigues said after being asked whether he had an agreement with Ancelotti to be the Brazil coach at the 2024 edition of Copa America. The 64-year-old Italian coach has a contract with M...Water rescues, darkened traffic lights following torrential downpour in DC area

DENVER (KDVR) -- It's been a decade since buyers could purchase legal marijuana in Colorado, and the legalization campaign promise of fewer marijuana crimes has come true as Denver marijuana crime dropped by 200%. Voters approved a ballot initiative for legal recreational marijuana in 2012, with sales beginning in 2014 after the state crafted a regulatory framework. The forces behind the legalization campaign said crime would go down, taxes would fund useful public programs and the new industry would unlock a multibillion dollar economic force.
