तीन WWE सुपरस्टार्स जो बन सकते हैं Cody Rhodes के अगले चैलेंजर


Cody Rhodes WWE के प्रत्येक पे-पर-व्यू में टाइटल डिफेंड कर रहे हैं।

कोडी रोड्स (Cody Rhodes) इस समय WWE के टॉप बेबीफेस सुपरस्टार हैं और मौजूदा अनडिस्प्यूटेड WWE चैंपियन भी बने हुए हैं। रोड्स के लिए टाइटल रन ज्यादा आसान नहीं रहा है क्योंकि वो हर एक पे-पर-व्यू इवेंट में अपनी बेल्ट को डिफेंड करते नजर आए हैं।

हाल ही में उन्होंने WWE क्लैश एट द कैसल (Clash at the Castle 2024) में एजे स्टाइल्स (AJ Styles) को ‘आई क्विट’ मैच में हराकर अपने टाइटल को सफलतापूर्वक डिफेंड किया था। अब सवाल है कि रोड्स का अगला प्रतिद्वंदी कौन हो सकता है। तो चलिए उन तीन सुपरस्टार्स पर नजर डालते हैं, जो कोडी रोड्स के अगले प्रतिद्वंदी बन सकते हैं।

3. केविन ओवेंस

केविन ओवेंस पहले भी यूनिवर्सल चैंपियन रहे हैं और कई बार रोमन रेंस को अनडिस्प्यूटेड टाइटल के लिए चैलेंज कर चुके हैं। इसी इतिहास को देखते हुए संभव है कि ओवेंस को एक बार फिर Money in the Bank पे-पर-व्यू में टाइटल जीतने का मौका दिया जा सकता है।

चूंकि Money in the Bank इवेंट का आयोजन कनाडा में होगा, ऐसे में उम्मीद होगी कि केविन अपने होम क्राउड के सामने रोड्स को चैंपियनशिप के लिए चैलेंज करते हुए नजर आ सकते हैं। हाल ही में स्कॉटलैंड में हुए Clash at the Castle 2024 में WWE ने होमटाउन स्टार्स को चैंपियनशिप जीतने का मौका दिया था। इस बार भी ऐसा ही कुछ होने की उम्मीद करना गलत नहीं होगा।

2. रैंडी ऑर्टन

रैंडी ऑर्टन और कोडी रोड्स का बहुत पुराना इतिहास रहा है और दोनों ने बहुत साल पहले द लीगेसी टीम में साथ काम किया था। कुछ हफ्तों पहले ऑर्टन को किंग ऑफ द रिंग टूर्नामेंट में जीत का प्रबल दावेदार माना जा रहा था, लेकिन फाइनल में उन्हें गुंथर के हाथों हार झेलनी पड़ी थी। चूंकि जब फाइनल मुकाबले में गुंथर ने द वाइपर को पिन किया तब उनके कंधे ऊपर थे, ऐसे में ऑर्टन क्लीन तरीके से हार ना मिलने के कारण निक एल्डिस के सामने अनडिस्प्यूटेड WWE टाइटल शॉट की मांग कर सकते हैं।

1. सोलो सिकोआ

Clash at the Castle 2024 में कोडी रोड्स की एजे स्टाइल्स के खिलाफ जीत के बाद सोलो सिकोआ ने द अमेरिकन नाइटमेयर को कन्फ्रंट किया था। सिकोआ ने इस बीच अन्य द ब्लडलाइन मेंबर्स के साथ मिलकर रोड्स पर अटैक भी किया। हालांकि रैंडी ऑर्टन और केविन ओवेंस ने रोड्स को बचा लिया था, लेकिन यह स्पष्ट हो गया है कि सिकोआ की नजरें रोड्स की अनडिस्प्यूटेड WWE चैंपियनशिप बेल्ट पर हैं। ऐसे में संभावनाएं काफी अधिक हैं कि सोलो सिकोआ को कोडी रोड्स का अगला चैलेंजर बनाया जा सकता है।

Gilligan’s Island Creator Said the Show Was Not Inspired By Robinson Crusoe



Schwartz noted in the interview that he was searching for a TV premise that would unite disparate characters and force them to interact. He liked the idea of seven people, all from different walks of life, trapped in the same place, trying to form relationships. He thought for a moment that everyone might work in the same office, perhaps, but that wasn’t doable because, well, someone might get fired or merely go home. “Where could they be,” Schwartz asked himself, “where they had to get along with each other?” Is seems that stranding them all on a desert island was the perfect solution.

The “Robinson Crusoe” parallels, he explained, were just a coincidence:

“A lot of people think that I read ‘Robinson Crusoe’ and that’s where I got the idea for ‘Gilligan’s Island.’ Now, it does happen that ‘Robinson Crusoe’ is a favorite book of mine, but that’s not what started it. I think those people who believe that have put the cart before the horse. I was looking for a way that seven people — I don’t know why I fix on the number seven, but that’s what I did — where could they be that they couldn’t leave each other.”

Two sailors, an intellectual, a farmgirl, two millionaires, and an actor. That was Schwartz’s ensemble. The sailors, it seems, would necessarily have to be the final characters to enter the equation, as they would be carried along with the premise. The character work was conceived of first. That means Gilligan himself the last one to join Schwartz’s ensemble. Or perhaps the Skipper. Which was a good thing because, as “Weird Al” Yankovic once sang, I’m ‘n Love (wit da Skipper).

Cameron Young joins exclusive club after shooting 59 at Travelers Championship


The 59-club has another member.

Cameron Young broke 60 on Saturday in the third round of the Travelers Championship, becoming the 12th PGA player to do so.

It’s the 13th sub-60 in PGA history, as Jim Furyk has done it twice, including an all-time-low 58 at the same tournament in 2016.

Young’s 59 was 11-under par – he entered the clubhouse with a share of the lead after trailing by 11.

The 59-watch was on early, as Young got off to a birdie-birdie-eagle-birdie start, holing out from 142 yards on the par-four third hole. He closed out his front nine with back-to-back birdies, entering the turn with a 28.

He cooled off for a bit, but arguably his best shot of the day was on the driveable par-four on 15, where he drove the green and was just four feet from the pin. He knocked in the easy eagle to move to 10-under on the day.

Young had a nine-foot par putt for history, and he slid it in the backdoor for the low score.

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER SHARES SWEET SURPRISE WITH PGA TOUR FANS WAITING OVER AN HOUR TO MEET HIM

In all, it was nine pars, seven birdies, two eagles, and zero bogeys, en route to making 115 feet worth of putts.

It’s the first 59 on tour since Scottie Scheffler did so at the 2020 Northern Trust at TPC Boston, but the seventh sub-60 in all pro tours this year.

Those include a 59 by Joaquin Niemann on LIV Golf and a record-tying 57 by Cristobal del Solar on the Korn Ferry Tour in Bogota, Colombia.

Young was able to lift, clean and place his golf ball in the short grass because of soggy course conditions and the potential of more rain.

He could have gone even lower. After his eagle on the 15th hole, Young hit his tee shot to 7 feet on the par-3 16th and missed the short birdie putt.

Three NFL players we want to see as announcers


With retired players like Tom Brady and Jason Kelce set to call games in 2024, here’s three current players we hope to see as NFL announcers.

Gardner Minshew (QB) Las Vegas Raiders 

Can anyone think of a reason to keep Minshew out of the broadcast booth? Not only has he been sporting the same Uncle Rico-inspired look since his days at Washington State, but he recently channeled the character on media day for his team’s photo shoot.

He may never throw a football over a mountain, but 59 touchdowns in 37 starts are pretty sweet, as are his 9,937 passing yards. For the record, that’s 5,833 more yards than Amazon Prime analyst Ryan Fitzpatrick had in his first five seasons.

Minshew came off the bench to win his first Pro Bowl nomination with the Colts last year and likely drove his 2011 Acura to the event. At 28-years-old, he still drives the car he received from his parents as a high school graduation gift before buying (and living) in an old prison bus while playing for the Eagles in 2022.

Personality aside, Minshew learned his football from the late Mike Leach, himself a colorful character as head coach of three college teams. A natural in front of the camera, Minshew’s learning curve won’t be so steep with the media.

Kirk Cousins (QB) Atlanta Falcons

Who doesn’t love an underdog? After 39,471 career yards, it’s easy to forget that Cousins was drafted in the fourth round in 2012 to back up Robert Griffin III. With a four-year, $180M contract from the Falcons in his pocket and $232M in career earnings, Cousins certainly doesn’t need the money, but he’d be great calling NFL games.

Most don’t know that Cousins actually worked as a color analyst for the Big Ten Network during Michigan State’s Green-White spring games from 2013-15. But who can forget his shirtless dance on the team plane in 2022 and the encore performance prior to last year’s Vikings-Packers game on New Year’s Eve.

After 12 years in the league, there’s not much the 35-year-old quarterback hasn’t seen. Assuming he conforms to the dress code, he’d fit perfectly in the booth or on the sidelines.

Travis Kelce (TE) Kansas City Chiefs

While not nearly as affable as his older brother, Kelce is certainly no stranger to the spotlight after hosting “Saturday Night Live” and dating the planet’s most recognizable pop star. Without Taylor Swift, Kelce would still have nine Pro Bowls, four All-Pro nominations and three Super Bowl championships on his resume.

On a recent episode of the “New Heights” podcast he co-hosts with his brother, Kelce said he wants to work in broadcasting so badly, he’d turn down an ownership stake in a team in order to do so.

Of course the 11-year veteran just signed a two-year, $34M contract extension to become the highest-paid tight end in NFL history, which means we’ll have to wait to get Kelce in the booth.

Portugal entra no quadro de excelência do Euro 2024 | Crónica de jogo


Entram dois alunos na sala de aula para uma avaliação oral, ambos com a matéria estudada. Um consegue lidar com as perguntas e com o olhar crítico dos professores, o outro sucumbe ao medo cénico e bloqueia, perde-se no labirinto da memória. Foi mais ou menos isto que aconteceu neste sábado, em Dortmund, onde Portugal venceu a Turquia (3-0) e garantiu, desde logo, o apuramento para os oitavos-de-final do Euro 2024. Os mínimos estão cumpridos, pode vir o resto.

Estado de SP tem 50,3% da Sabesp atualmente; porcentual deve cair para 18%

O governo de São Paulo abriu na noite dessa sexta-feira (21) a oferta pública das ações da Companhia de Saneamento do Estado de São Paulo (Sabesp). Com isso, inicia-se a última etapa da privatização da empresa. No início do mês, o governo paulista anunciou que ficará com apenas 18,3% das ações da companhia. Atualmente, o estado detém 50,3% dos papeis; o restante está nas mãos de empresas ou pessoas físicas. 

Segundo o Palácio dos Bandeirantes, a venda de ações será dividida em dois lotes: o primeiro, de 15% dos papeis, será destinado a um investidor de referência; já o segundo, com cerca de 17% das ações, será aberto a todo o mercado, inclusive pessoas físicas, jurídicas e funcionários da companhia.

A partir da próxima segunda-feira (24) e até a sexta-feira (28), os investidores profissionais que se credenciaram na Bolsa de Valores (B3) até o último dia 17 poderão apresentar suas propostas de preço pelo primeiro lote (15% das ações da companhia). Dois investidores de referência selecionados serão anunciados no dia 28, após o fechamento do mercado.

Disputa

Os dois investidores de referência farão uma nova disputa para determinar quem ficará com os 15% dos papeis. “Se um investidor de referência tiver o melhor preço no livro de mercado, mas estiver gerando menor retorno financeiro ao estado, esse poderá recorrer ao right to match e cobrir o valor da oferta do concorrente, vencendo a disputa”, explica, em nota, o governo do estado.  O vencedor será divulgado no dia 15 de julho.

Já as vendas do segundo lote de ações (17% dos papeis da companhia) terão início em 1º de julho e ocorrerão até 15 de julho. Os interessados, inclusive pessoas físicas, poderão apresentar ofertas por meio de suas corretoras.

A liquidação e o encerramento da operação de privatização das ações do estado ocorrerão em 22 de julho. A oferta pública de ações da Sabesp está sendo conduzida pelos bancos BTG Pactual, Bank of America, Citi, UBS e Itaú BBA. 

De acordo com o Palácio dos Bandeirantes, não haverá oferta primária, o que significa que apenas ações que atualmente são do Governo de São Paulo serão vendidas.

Busca no exterior

O governo do estado de São Paulo tentará encontrar compradores da companhia no exterior a partir de segunda-feira (24), nos Estados Unidos e na Europa.

“O Governo de São Paulo inicia na próxima segunda-feira (24), em Nova Iorque, a terceira missão internacional do ano, que prevê agendas também na Europa. Liderada pelo governador Tarcísio de Freitas, a comitiva paulista participa de uma série de encontros com executivos de grupos e fundos globais de investimentos para apresentar o modelo da oferta”, disse o governo, em nota.

How to watch every Euro 2024 game online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view Euro 2024 matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the tournament — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Looking for other options? Be sure to check out some of the other great VPN deals taking place right now.

Livestream Belgium vs. Romania in Australia

Football fans Down Under can watch all the action from Germany on streaming service Optus Sport.

How to watch every Euro 2024 game online from anywhere using a VPN

  • With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming European Championship matches may vary.
  • If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
  • If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
  • All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. 
  • And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.

Insider Reveals Why The Lakers Decided To Hire JJ Redick


2024 NBA Finals - Game Five
(Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images)

 

The Los Angeles Lakers officially hired JJ Redick as their next head coach earlier this week and their choice has a lot of people talking.

Some feel he’s too fresh and inexperienced and others believe he will be just what the Lakers need.

Speaking to Jason Timpf, via The Volume, Jovan Buha spoke about why the Lakers decided to go with Redick.

He said Redick pitched himself as someone ready for the moment and free of past coaching philosophies that might not work in Los Angeles.

Finally, he was able to sell himself because of his communication skills and his “ability to effectively communicate with the players and command the locker room.”

Buha mentioned that the last two head coaches in Los Angeles have lost the faith of their players.

When a coach is no longer truly in command of the locker room, they have no chance of leading a team.

Redick might have more luck because not only did he play in the league but he knows many of these players personally, including LeBron James.

Plus, his years of broadcasting have given him impressive communication skills.

That means that he will be able to work out problems with players, relay his plans, and adjust via conversation and collaboration.

This could be a great thing for the Lakers, who sometimes look dysfunctional and out of sync with one another.

Redick’s inexperience is still troubling for many LA fans but he could win them over with big wins and a clear understanding of how to help the team get on track.
