The Show Wouldn't Be The Same With Only 2 Of Them
Hammond, May to reject $6.1M BBC offer to return to Top Gear
Prepare your grains of salt. The Daily Mirror is reporting that James May and Richard Hammond will reject a 4-million-pound (about $6.1 million) offer from the BBC to return to Top Gear sans Jeremy Clarkson.
If true, this isn't a particularly shocking development. Since essentially day one of this long-running saga, the hosts have made clear that they're a team, and that a show without one of them would never work.
So where does that leave Clarkson, Hammond, and May? Well, The Mirror is citing an inside source who claims that, along with long-time producer Andy Wilman, the trio are "very close" to signing a huge deal to produce a program for streaming giant Netflix. Maybe House of Cars is more realistic than we thought.

Will There Be A 3rd Triple Crown Winner In My Lifetime?
American Pharoah becomes 1st Triple Crown winner in 37 years
NEW YORK (AP) By mid-stretch, Bob Baffert knew it. American Pharoah was going to win the Triple Crown.
He took his eyes off the horse to soak in the crazed scene of the packed grandstand. Fans jumped up and down, hugged, and tossed drinks in the air.
The race wasn't even over yet, and the crowd knew it, too. Thirty-seven years of waiting to see one of the rarest feats in sports was almost over.
''The crowd was just thundering and I was just enjoying the crowd and the noise and everything happening,'' the white-haired trainer said. ''What a feeling.''
Finally, a Triple Crown winner. And this one was never in doubt.
