The Tour de France didn’t formally end on the upper reaches of the Cime de la Bonette, but it was the point where Jonas Vingegaard understood that his race was run.

Choosing a No. 1 college prospect at this point has never been more challenging.

That term in which a vast world of meaning seems to reside, and yet which when looked at directly shies and ducks out of view like a startled fawn.Yes, I heard it again this week: “the Australian way”.It’s quite common to hear observers of rugby in this country, and even practitioners of the game, call for those who pull on a gold jersey to play “the Australian way”.

Kobe Bryant’s Hall of Famer career didn’t come out of the blue, as he was inspired by his own father, better known as Joe “Jellybean,” a professional basketball player during the 70s.
