However, since the ATP Cup is a team event, the 33-year old Spaniard received another shot to make amends and he did exactly as was expected of him. Following his humbling defeat in singles to Goffin, pairing alongside Pablo Carenno Busta, Nadal helped Team Spain secure the semi-final berth as the duo edged past the resurgent Belgians Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen 6-7, 7-5, (10-7) in their deciding doubles contest....

The two birds are constantly circling the raft, and moving targets are hard to hit even after a player crafts a bow and arrows.

Of course, players will actually have to have collected new armor to change their armor in Rage 2....

After the opening day was washed out, India struggled on a stop-start day in London as James Anderson led a superb display from England’s seamers.

However, Rahane has not given up hope of India forcing their way back into the match and the series....

He averaged over 50 in Test match cricket and faced over 30,000 balls in the longest format of the game. One of his biggest traits was his down to Earth attitude.

Virat Kohli, although arguably the best batsman in the world has succeeded in receiving hate from all corners of the world and from many people in his home country itself. MS Dhoni, the same way, receives so much hate from Indian Cricket fans. He is hated not only now but he was hated, back when he was made the captain over Yuvraj Singh....

Head coach Jon Gruden is entering his third year with the team after failing to impress in his first two seasons. The Raiders improved slightly last year, finishing 7-9 after going 4-12 in 2018, but the rebuild started by Gruden when he arrived still hasn’t yielded much in the way of results on the field. Quarterback Derek Carr is also returning, but he faces a new challenger for the starting job after the arrival of Marcus Mariota from Tennessee....

The ax, not surprisingly, is wielded by big-government foes who argue that the decennial descent into demography is not only too intrusive but too expensive- at more than $4 billion. What’s surprising is who’s defending the census: big business. Companies use census data to make all manner of decisions. Real-estate developers rely on the number-of-bedrooms question to determine what size homes to build in a community. Department stores use data on working mothers to decide how to stock their shelves....

Oakland Raiders – This Jon Gruden thing could go pretty wrong Unlike a lot of people, I wasn’t worried too much about Gruden not being able to adjust to the modern game and adapt different offensive schemes. I like the toughness he wants to install into his players, I think he has gained insight into different coaches with TV production meetings and I believe he is the type of flashy hire the Raiders needed after announcing they would move to Las Vegas....
