A two-time Formula One champion, Fernando Alonso’s claim to fame came in 2005 and 2006 when he clinched the drivers’ championship while racing for Renault and at the age of 24 years and 58 days, became the youngest double champion. Since starting his career with Renault in 2003, Alonso drove for McLaren in for a year in 2007 before returning to Renault for the 2008 and 2009 season. The next season, he earned a seat with Scuderia Ferrari where he droved from 2010-2014 before returning to McLaren in 2015....

City secured a 2-1 win over Sean Dyche’s side thanks to second-half goals from Gael Clichy and Sergio Aguero, despite playing with 10 men for an hour after Fernandinho was sent off for a dangerous lunge on Johann Gudmundsson.

The “Stone Crusher” lived up to his nickname by flattening Enbom 74 seconds into the first round with a devastating left hook to the body.

However, one has to wonder if Jack of Blades would really be the best move for the franchise. He has a ton of name recognition in the Fable community, and could serve as a root for new Fable games to grow from, but he could also hold Fable 4 back. The franchise is in completely new hands and needs to reestablish its reputation after going on hiatus for a few years....

Problems that once seemed parochial now matter to the rest of the world–from homegrown jihads to organized crime. When it comes to thugs and thuggery, it really is a small world after all. For example, in a recent report to NATO, Gwen McClure, an FBI agent seconded to Interpol to fight organized crime, makes some stunning connections based on police intelligence from around the globe. She cites, for instance, a meeting in Albania in the late 1990s between regional criminal bosses–who are heavily involved in drug running, gun smuggling and people trafficking–and several terrorist leaders from Algeria....

To the naked eye — or the casual football fan — Elliott stands in a class by himself in this conversation, multiple tiers above the likes of Pollard. Zeke has accomplished a ton since entering the league in 2016 when he became just the 10th rookie RB to be selected as an All-Pro. Since then, the Ohio State product has 56 career TDs, nearly 7,400 rushing yards, and he’s 370 yards shy of 10,000 career scrimmage yards....

Elliott, who rushed 22 times for 96 yards and a TD in the opener, is known for celebrating by pretending to use a spoon after rushing for first downs. Now, Elliott is using that brand messaging to help others in a different sport. Elliott, a bowling fan, collaborated with designer Marcus Rivero as part of the Cowboys’ partnership with Main Event to create several pairs of custom bowling shoes.

All the while, Max Verstappen has taken over Daniel Ricciardo’s early lead in the battle between the Red Bulls and has been putting in some showstopping drives. The young Dutchman may well be the next Honda powered World Champion in 2019, but for now, he is seemingly doing his best to get in the way of Vettel as much as possible, although the Dutchman himself doesn’t seem to even think there’s a title battle anymore....

Even despite starting the Italian Grand Prix in P7, the Dutchman made light work of the drivers in front of him on the grid at the start of the race as he carries on his dominant form in the sport. He becomes just the ninth different driver in Formula One history to win five successive races in the sport alongside previous greats such as Nigel Mansell, Michael Schumacher and Alberto Ascari....
