CHEYENNE (AP) — A coalition of environmental groups says the Wyoming Legislature didn’t go far enough in amending trespass laws the state enacted last year seeking to make it a crime to collect data. The Wyoming Legislature in the session that ended last week amended civil and criminal statutes to specify the data-trespass laws only apply to private lands. The original laws targeted collecting data on “open lands.” Gov. Matt Mead hasn’t acted on the changes yet. A coalition of environmental, animal rights and other groups filed suit challengi...

(AP) - While the Super Bowl winner lost its second quarterback in less than a week, the loser of the big game held on to two key performers. With Peyton Manning retired, his supposed successor Brock Osweiler heading to Houston, defensive end Malik Jackson going to Jacksonville, and linebacker Danny Trevathan now in Chicago, the Denver Broncos clearly have been weakened. At least Super Bowl MVP Von Miller has been franchise tagged and won't be going anywhere. Carolina, which fell 24-10 to Denver...
