Sounds like NBC's Morgan Pressel got a little too excited over this Brooke Henderson shot on Friday at the Women's Olympic Golf Competition. And by too excited, we mean Pressel seemingly dropped a hard F-bomb on live television, and it didn't appear to be an accident. There was no quick apology. This was not on a "hot mic." And, for the life of me, I can't seem to come up with anything she "could have been" saying here. It genuinely sounds like Pressel says that Henderson was "f---in' fired up" after this approach shot into a par 5.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.
