The NFL announced on Tuesday that the number of teams that will qualify for the playoffs will expand from 12 to 14, which will also increase the number of Wild Card Round games from four to six. NFL owners and the Players Association came to the agreement on Tuesday, which will go into effect this season. The format will mean that only the top team in each conference will earn a bye into the Divisional Round. The six division winners will then play the six wild card teams. The new format marks the first time the NFL has expanded the playoffs since 1990, when the league increased the number of teams that qualified from 10 to 12. Per the new format, three playoff games will be played on Saturday, Jan. 9, and another three games will be played on Sunday, Jan. 10. NBC and CBS have been the selected networks to air the added two showdowns. Had this year's format been in place in 2019, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Rams would have earned playoff bids. 982

Thanks to social media and the help of people in Georgia ¨C police say two dine and dashers have been caught ¨C and claim they¡¯ll make it right.¡°It breaks your heart,¡± said Lisa Ritter, the manager at Big Daddy¡¯s Oyster Bar and Pub in Peachtree City, Georgia.Ritter says two people came in days before Christmas, spent hours at a table, racked up a huge tab, then took off.¡°If you can¡¯t afford to go out and eat, it¡¯s bad enough you don¡¯t get tipped well enough, waitresses only make .13 an hour, and it¡¯s really bad that they dine and dash,¡± Ritter added.She says this isn¡¯t the first time this has happened, and it probably won¡¯t be the last¡­but says it really hurts business.¡°We have to still pay for it,¡± Ritter said.Peachtree City police say the bill was more than 0, and they asked the community for help identifying the dine and dashers.¡°After we posted some photos on Facebook, we received an overwhelming response from numerous people providing identification information,¡± said Lt. Matthew Myers with the Peachtree City Police Department.Lt. Myers says they have been in contact with the alleged thieves and adds that you can face many criminal charges if you walk out on a bill.He also says it¡¯s not uncommon for establishments to make the server foot the bill.¡°There are instances where the waitresses have to pay for it, because if you¡¯re not checking on your tables, if you¡¯re horsing around, I could see that happening,¡± added Ritter.This time, they didn¡¯t make the waitress pay, but Ritter says the waitress was still stiffed.¡°She was very upset and crying,¡± Ritter said, ¡°They had been here for like four hours, that¡¯s her tip¡­that would have been like a tip.¡±Police say the dashers have contacted Big Daddy¡¯s and offered to make it right.That is yet to be finalized. 1803

The European Union has hit Google with another big antitrust fine, the third in a series of billion-dollar penalties the US tech giant has faced for hindering competition.The European Commission on Wednesday ordered Google to pay €1.5 billion (.7 billion) for abusing its dominant position in online search advertising."Google has cemented its dominance in online search adverts and shielded itself from competitive pressure by imposing anti-competitive contractual restrictions on third-party websites," Commissioner Margrethe Vestager said in a statement.The tech company has now been fined €8.2 billion (.3 billion) in total by Europe over the past three years.EU regulators have taken a much more robust approach to Big Tech companies than their US counterparts, especially when it comes to competition, data protection and tax issues.Google has already been fined in two previous EU antitrust cases.The Commission ordered the company to pay €4.34 billion (.9 billion) in July 2018 for unfairly pushing its apps on smartphone users and thwarting competitors.In 2017, it imposed a €2.4 billion (.7 billion) fine on Google for using its search engine to steer consumers to its own shopping platform.The company said in a blog post Tuesday that it was making further changes to its service based on "feedback" from the European Commission.It has started testing a new format that provides users with direct links to comparison shopping sites. It will also ask new and existing Android users in Europe which browser they'd like to use. 1555
