Atlanta and Oakland joined a growing list of cities losing patience with weeks of protests against economic equality, evicting and arresting scores of people and leaving one person in Oakland critically injured.

The Kansas City Chiefs have released troubled running back Larry Johnson. A two-paragraph statement from the team Monday simply listed Johnson's statistics and announced his release.

Johnson was due to come off a two-week suspension Monday. Johnson apparently caused the Chiefs to run out of patience after his latest brush with controversy.

The runs led to a school record.

The Texas Longhorns' offense put on a clinic Thursday, setting a school record for runs scored in a Big 12 game as they clobbered Texas Tech 22-6 at Dan Law Field.
