Tim Howard suspended for inappropriate fan interaction

NEW YORK (AP) - Colorado Rapids goalkeeper Tim Howard has been suspended for three games and fined an undisclosed amount for profane language directed toward a fan during a game against Sporting Kansas City and an altercation with a fan following the match.

The longtime U.S. national team star, who played with Manchester United and Everton in the English Premier League, was penalized Friday, five days after Colorado's 3-1 loss at Sporting on Sunday.
