Definitely one of the coolest stories you’ll hear today. Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield not only saved a Florida high school football team’s season, he also launched their journey towards a state championship. Meet the Space Coast Vipers, who were dealing with financial problems following a 1-8 campaign last season. So much so, that they had issues providing the necessary equipment to kids and had to turn them away. (RELATED: ‘Intentions Are Political’: Aaron Rodgers Looks To Launch Career In Politics After Days In NFL Are Over: REPORT) Well, Mayfield and his wife, Emily, heard about the situation and donated $17,900 to the school, which was enough to provide every player with gear. The kids got brand new helmets, uniforms, pads, they got the hookup! And how does the Vipers football team respond? By winning their first SSAA 1A State Championship in program history. Truly one of the coolest stories ever. WATCH: This high school team almost didn’t have a season.

Perhaps the best news for Prime Video’s Thursday Night Football ratings is that the numbers have gotten so good that a bad night stands out. This week’s Rams-49ers game attracted only 12.29 million viewers. Below the year-to-date average of 13.51 million — and well below last week’s 18.48 million for Packers-Lions — it was still a 54-percent jump over last year’s comparable game. Two TNF contests remain (Broncos-Chargers and Seahawks-Bears), followed by a Prime Video playoff game. Last night’s game carried interest on paper, but the game itself was boring; it was the first game of the season with neither team scoring a touchdown. Many who tuned in out of curiosity likely tuned out. Regardless, streaming is here to stay. If anything, the NFL will be doing more and more of it, as more people cut the cord and rely on apps.Police in St. Thomas are investigating after a local retail store contacted them, reporting the theft of nearly $300 in goods. Around 7 p.m. Saturday, a lone woman was seen leaving the store, making no attempts to pay for the product. Police are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying this woman. Anyone with information is asked to contact St. Thomas police. Shopping Trends The Shopping Trends team is independent of the journalists at CTV News.

NEW YORK — No ex-president had a more prolific and diverse publishing career than Jimmy Carter . His more than two dozen books included nonfiction, poetry, fiction, religious meditations and a children’s story. His memoir “An Hour Before Daylight” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2002, while his 2006 best-seller “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” stirred a fierce debate by likening Israel’s policies in the West Bank to the brutal South African system of racial segregation. And just before his 100th birthday, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation honored him with a lifetime achievement award for how he wielded "the power of the written word to foster peace, social justice, and global understanding.” In one recent work, “A Full Life,” Carter observed that he “enjoyed writing” and that his books “provided a much-needed source of income.” But some projects were easier than others. “Everything to Gain,” a 1987 collaboration with his wife, Rosalynn, turned into the “worst threat we ever experienced in our marriage,” an intractable standoff for the facilitator of the Camp David accords and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. According to Carter, Rosalynn was a meticulous author who considered “the resulting sentences as though they have come down from Mount Sinai, carved into stone.” Their memories differed on various events and they fell into “constant arguments.” They were ready to abandon the book and return the advance, until their editor persuaded them to simply divide any disputed passages between them. “In the book, each of these paragraphs is identified by a ‘J’ or an ‘R,’ and our marriage survived,” he wrote. Here is a partial list of books by Carter: “Keeping Faith: Memoirs of a President” “The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East” (With Rosalynn Carter) “Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life” “An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections” “Turning Point: A Candidate, a State, and a Nation Come of Age” “Always a Reckoning, and Other Poems” (With daughter Amy Carter) “The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer” “Living Faith” “The Virtues of Aging” “An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood” “Christmas in Plains: Memories” “The Hornet’s Nest: A Novel of the Revolutionary War” “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” “Faith & Freedom: The Christian Challenge for the World” “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” “A Remarkable Mother” “Beyond the White House” “We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work” “White House Diary” “NIV Lessons from Life Bible: Personal Reflections with Jimmy Carter” “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power” “A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety”S&P Dow Jones Indices Announces Dow Jones Sustainability Indices 2024 Review Results
