The moment we've been waiting for is here. On Friday, France Football released announced the 30 nominees&nbsp;for the&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neither-karim-benzema-nor-kylian-mbappe-neymar-reveals-who-should-win-2022-ballon-dor-20220531-0018.html" target="_blank">2022 Ballon d'Or</a>. The winner will be known&nbsp;on&nbsp;October 17, in a ceremony to be held at Thé&acirc;tre du Ch&acirc;telet in Paris. 
For the first time since 2005, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-ballon-dor-list-by-years-and-age-20211128-0011.html" target="_blank">Lionel Messi</a> didn't make&nbsp;the cut. The Argentine star, who <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ballon-dor-all-time-winners-20211128-0010.html" target="_blank">holds the record</a> for most Ballon d'Ors won, had won the prize last year in a decision that sparked controversy, as many thought <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-on-robert-lewandowskis-ballon-dor-comments-he-can-say-what-he-wants-i-dont-care--20220530-0012.html" target="_blank">Robert Lewandowski</a> deserved it more than him. 
The Ballon d'Or criteria has changed this year, taking into account the typical club season rather than the calendar year. With that in mind, Messi's omission may&nbsp;be explained by his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-slammed-by-french-media-again-over-psg-ucl-loss-to-real-madrid-20220309-0037.html" target="_blank">lackluster&nbsp;2021-22 campaign</a> in his first year since leaving Barcelona. Even so, to overlook&nbsp;one of, if not the best player&nbsp;of all time in a list of 30 players is very questionable.&nbsp;PSG teammate Neymar was also snubbed in the 30-man shortlist. 
<h2>2022 Ballon d'Or nominees: 30-man shortlist released without Messi, Neymar</h2> 
While Messi and Neymar were not nominated, Paris Saint-Germain teammate Kylian Mbappe was included in the shortlist and is among the favorites to win the award. Vinicius Junior is also a heavy candidate, but Real Madrid goalscoring machine <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/qatar-2022-karim-benzema-talks-about-lionel-messi-argentinas-world-cup-chances-20220809-0009.html%C3%A7" target="_blank">Karim Benzema</a> is without any doubt the frontrunner after a fantastic season.

2022 Ballon d'Or nominees: Lionel Messi, Neymar snubbed in 30-man shortlist

For years, having <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-retires-no-6-jersey-what-will-happen-to-lebron-james-number-20220811-0019.html" target="_blank">LeBron James</a> on your team almost guaranteed that multiple veterans and rising stars would want to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-ambitious-lebron-james-makes-lakers-one-big-request-20220810-0026.html" target="_blank">team up with him</a>. But there's only so much the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-russell-westbrook-throws-the-lakers-under-the-bus-on-twitter-20220809-0006.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles Lakers</a> can do with so little cap space. 
I'm pretty sure James could just pick up the phone and get five or six players to sign with them in less than an hour. But that's not how the salary cap works, and that's why the Lakers have struggled to make some impactful moves as of late. 
That's why ESPN's Tim Bontemps believes that, as much as the Lakers want to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lakers-reach-key-decision-over-lebron-james-anthony-davis-20220810-0004.html" target="_blank">lock up LeBron</a> for the future right now, signing him to a contract extension could actually hurt their chances of improving the roster. 
<h2>NBA News: LeBron James' Extension Could Hurt The Lakers In The Future</h2> 
"If you look at the situation the Lakers are in, we have already talked about the nausea of how they don't have enough salary cap space to fill out their roster around Anthony Davis," Bontemps started. "The one way they can do that is for LeBron James to wait until next summer and, like James Harden this summer with Philly, take a little less money and fill in around him and Anthony Davis next summer." 
"If he signs a max extension this summer, the Lakers are stuck in the exact same situation they are now and are going to be stuck going forward because they have no other contracts to trade," Bontemps added.&nbsp;"They have no other way to get players on their roster."

James is one of the wealthiest athletes of all time, so I'm pretty sure he'd give up money to win that fifth NBA championship. But, of course, the Lakers don't want to deal with the uncertainty of potentially losing him in the summer. 
At the end of the day, both parties will have to have a long, uncomfortable conversation about what's best for everybody. James has historically left his teams on short notice, so we get why the Lakers want him signed now. But that may not be the wisest choice this time.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-kevin-durant-saved-kyrie-irving-at-the-nets-last-season-20220811-0014.html" target="_blank">Kevin Durant</a> took his trade request to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-nets-kyrie-irving-makes-absurd-demands-over-new-contract-20220811-0002.html" target="_blank">Brooklyn Nets</a> owner Joe Tsai. But instead of trying to make amends and pave the way for reconciliation, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-kevin-durant-adds-another-destination-to-his-wish-list-20220810-0042.html" target="_blank">the two-time NBA champion</a> burned all bridges back to Barclays Center. 
Durant has informed the team that he wants to pursue a ring elsewhere. He's listed multiple contenders as desired destinations in a trade, yet no one has been able to meet the Nets' asking price for him. 
He's got four years left on his contract, so time should be on Brooklyn's side. However, NBA insider Marc Stein reports that the belief around the league is that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-kevin-durant-wants-steve-nash-out-because-kyrie-irving-hates-him-20220809-0004.html" target="_blank">Durant will sabotage</a> the organization from within to lower his trade value as much as possible. 
<h2>NBA Rumors: Kevin Durant Could Create Chaos In Brooklyn To Lower His Trade Value</h2> 
(Transcript via Marc Stein) 
"Durant ramped up his push to exit Brooklyn via trade in a face-to-face meeting Saturday with Nets owner Joe Tsai in London by insisting that he wants to be sent elsewhere unless GM Sean Marks and Coach Steve Nash are fired. Tsai said Monday via Twitter that Marks and Nash 'have my support.' 
There is a growing belief among rival teams that Durant knew when he issued that me-or-them ultimatum that Tsai had no intention of yielding to the request and firing Marks and Nash. One resultant theory that the Durant/Tsai meeting spawned is the idea KD has begun trying to manufacture as much behind-the-scenes discord as he can in hopes that it will lead the Nets to lower their asking price and trade him out of exasperation."

The Nets did everything humanly possible to keep Durant happy, but this is a ruthless business. Truth be told, they'd be better off by moving on from this dark chapter of their story and getting as much as they can for him before things get out of hand.

Desperate Kevin Durant could sabotage the Nets just to get traded

For the first time in NBA history, a jersey number will be retired league-wide as the league decided to honor Bill Russell's legacy by retiring his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-retires-no-6-jersey-what-will-happen-to-lebron-james-number-20220811-0019.html" target="_blank">No. 6 uniform</a>. Unsurprisingly, one of the&nbsp;first questions&nbsp;people made was what would happen with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lebron-james-jersey-what-could-be-his-new-number-as-nba-retires-bill-russells-no-6-20220811-0018.html" target="_blank">LeBron James</a>. 
It turns out that The King and all the other active players who currently wear&nbsp;number 6 are grandfathered in, meaning they can continue to use it. However, no NBA team is allowed to issue that number to new players. 
That means the last player to have worn No. 6 for the&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-potential-destinations-for-nets-kyrie-irving-20220805-0012.html" target="_blank">Heat</a> will always be LeBron <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-ambitious-lebron-james-makes-lakers-one-big-request-20220810-0026.html" target="_blank">James</a>. Miami has not issued the number to another player since The King left in the summer of 2014, which is why the team would have a plan about it. 
<h2>Report: Heat To Retire LeBron James' No. 6 Upon His Retirement</h2> 
LeBron was part of Miami's golden days, helping&nbsp;the franchise add two more banners to their rafters during the Heatles era. The franchise has already retired the jerseys of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/dwyane-wade-not-sure-heat-would-have-won-more-rings-if-lebron-james-had-stayed-20211224-0020.html" target="_blank">Dwyane Wade</a> and Chris Bosh, who played a key role alongside James in those championships,&nbsp;while it hasn't&nbsp;issued James' No. 6 again so far. 
According to Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel, in addition to Russell's No. 6, the Heat will also retire James' jersey upon his retirement from the sport. It might&nbsp;be fair, considering what he gave to Miami: 
&ldquo;Having already retired the No. 3 of Dwyane Wade and the No. 1 of Chris Bosh, the Heat have not issued the No. 6 of fellow Big Three partner LeBron James since he left the team during the 2014 offseason, following four consecutive trips to the NBA Finals and two championships,&rdquo; Winderman wrote. "James&rsquo; Heat jersey retirement is anticipated upon his NBA retirement.&rdquo; 
LeBron's departure in 2014 may have hurt Heat fans, but everyone in South Beach is still grateful for witnessing one of the all-time greats succeeding with their team. At the end of the day, retiring his jersey would be the right thing to do.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-star-offers-to-play-for-free-for-manchester-united-amid-ronaldo-uncertainty-20220810-0011.html" target="_blank">Manchester United</a>'s absence from the UEFA Champions League this season has kept <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-upset-man-united-squad-wants-cristiano-ronaldo-out-of-the-club-20220810-0016.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>'s future in the spotlight.&nbsp;Multiple clubs have apparently shown interest in acquiring the 37-year-old attacker, but none have made a serious attempt to acquire him. 
The Portugal captain has been linked with a move back to La Liga, with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-reason-why-cristiano-ronaldo-wont-return-to-real-madrid-20220721-0017.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-fires-back-at-atletico-madrid-fans-amid-man-utd-exit-rumors-20220729-0023.html" target="_blank">Atletico Madrid</a> mentioned as potential destinations. What is more, some&nbsp;Los Blancos supporters would welcome their ex-star&nbsp;back into the fold as they&nbsp;greeted the club's president <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-president-astonishing-reaction-when-asked-to-re-sign-cristiano-ronaldo-20220811-0017.html" target="_blank">Florentino Perez</a> at the hotel&nbsp;in Helsinki,&nbsp;Finland. 
Despite the president's apparent disregard for their first request, the group continued to press him to bring the forward back to Spain. The second time Perez was asked, he turned around, responding with a simple, "Who?" and then the searing, "Cristiano? Again? He's 38 years old." 
<h2>How Ronaldo's sister replied to Florentino Perez's comments</h2> 
Ronaldo has been as productive as ever this season, scoring 24 goals last term. However,&nbsp;the forward superstar, who will be 38 in February, is no longer as vibrant as he once was. Although his contract with United only has a year left, he is still Portugal's captain and has one additional year of club control over his transfer. 
The Red Devils'&nbsp;opening matchday loss to Brighton was his debut of the new season, and it's still uncertain whether new manager&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ten-hag-questions-ronaldos-professionality-after-leaving-rayo-vallecano-game-early-20220803-0037.html" target="_blank">Erik ten Hag</a> will start him this weekend against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/brentford-vs-manchester-united-lineups-for-2022-2023-premier-league-matchday-2-20220811-0033.html" target="_blank">Brentford</a>. After the Real Madrid president&nbsp;made remarks about a possible&nbsp;Cristiano Ronaldo return to the Santiago Bernabeu, the seasoned veteran's sister attacked him, defending&nbsp;her brother. 
<blockquote> 
 &ldquo;He&rsquo;s 38 years old but he can jump two&nbsp;meters high in the air and stay in it for three&nbsp;minutes and his body has no fat. Respect yourself, old man, you are 75&rdquo;, she took to Instagram to respond. 
</blockquote> 
There is no telling where the five-time Ballon d'Or winner&nbsp;will play this year because of his uncertain future. Manchester United are said to be confident in his abilities this year, but the absence of Champions League games casts doubt. Nevertheless, it's safe to say that a comeback to Real Madrid is out of the question.

Ronaldo's sister takes vicious jab at Real Madrid president Perez for mocking superstar's age

Following a troubling season, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-in-big-trouble-two-of-xavi-side-new-signings-could-leave-as-free-agents-20220810-0028.html" target="_blank">FC Barcelona</a> look ready to get back to prominence. Aiming to build on the progress made since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelonas-jewel-falls-down-pecking-order-due-to-lewandowski-and-raphinha-arrivals-20220811-0012.html" target="_blank">Xavi Hernandez</a> took over, the club has been aggressive in the transfer window. 
The Catalans have secured the signings of top players like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-robert-lewandowski-draws-parallels-between-xavi-pep-guardiola-20220809-0015.html" target="_blank">Robert Lewandowski</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/leeds-united-warn-barcelona-give-them-a-deadline-to-pay-for-raphinha-20220805-0020.html" target="_blank">Raphinha</a>, Franck Kessie, Andreas Christensen, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/can-jules-kounde-be-registered-by-barcelona-and-when-can-he-debut-20220731-0014.html" target="_blank">Jules Kounde</a>. On top of that, they pulled off a contract extension for French star&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelonas-ousmane-dembele-makes-a-strange-request-that-left-teammates-shocked-20220718-0012.html" target="_blank">Ousmane Dembele</a>. 
Therefore, Barcelona may finally have what it takes to get back to glory days. However, they have yet to register their new signings. Though the club is hopeful to do so soon, one player may not make it on time for the season opener. 
<h2>Report: Barcelona may register all their signings except Jules Kounde for Matchday 1</h2> 
According to Javier Miguel of Spanish outlet As, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-star-offers-to-play-for-free-20220810-0018.html" target="_blank">Barcelona</a> will probably register all their new signings except Jules Kounde for the opening game of the 2022-23 season against Rayo Vallecano on Saturday. 
After striking a deal with Orpheus Media, the club is optimistic that La Liga will let them register their new signings, as well as Sergi Roberto and Dembele, who are playing under new contracts this campaign. 
Kounde, however, may not be registered on time. The former Sevilla defender is the last player to join the club, which is why he runs from behind the other signings. In addition, he is coming back from a pubic surgery. 
Barca reportedly are still waiting for La Liga to give the green light to their new players&rsquo; registration in order to make room for Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso. Meanwhile, the future of Frenkie de Jong remains unclear.

Report: Barcelona to register all but one signing ahead of first 2022-23 La Liga game

This summer's transfer window has been filled with high-profile drama involving superstars like Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelonas-jewel-falls-down-pecking-order-due-to-lewandowski-and-raphinha-arrivals-20220811-0012.html" target="_blank">Robert Lewandowski</a>, Bernardo Silva, Jules Kounde, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ronaldos-sister-takes-vicious-jab-at-florentino-perez-20220812-0014.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>.&nbsp;None, however, have been pushed to their limits quite like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-real-reasons-why-frenkie-de-jong-doesnt-want-to-leave-barcelona-20220804-0012.html" target="_blank">Frenkie de Jong</a>'s. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/frenkie-de-jong-of-barcelona-makes-final-decision-on-his-future-20220728-0012.html" target="_blank">Barcelona</a> had&nbsp;originally intended to get go of de Jong so they could create room on the roster for Manchester City's Bernardo Silva.&nbsp;A number of teams, including Manchester United and Chelsea, have shown interest in signing the Dutch midfielder this summer. 
As part of its attempts to decrease the salary bill that is preventing it from registering the new players, Barcelona were&nbsp;eager to approve the transfer of the former Ajax prodigy. However, with less than 24 hours to go until the Blaugrana's opening La Liga matchday, the 25-year-old is still with the Catalan side. 
<h2>What choices does Frenkie de Jong have?</h2> 
Although Frekie De Jong&nbsp;wants to stay with Barcelona, the club have reportedly presented him with two possibilities. CBS Sports' Ben Jacobs claims the Spaniards have&nbsp;informed their player that he either accepts a 50 percent&nbsp;wage reduction or quit the club. Additionally, they have given him until this coming weekend to comply. 
His pay this season is expected to exceed &euro;22 million, which is presenting problems for the club when it comes to registering players. This amount is also far more than the salary ceiling mandated by the new board and the team's president, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-president-joan-laporta-hints-when-lionel-messi-could-return-20220724-0009.html" target="_blank">Joan Laporta</a>. 
The Dutchman has already been asked to accept a pay reduction once by Barcelona this transfer window. Several sources claim that he refuses to go along with either proposal. He plans to return to the team for the upcoming term&nbsp;without making any pay concessions since he understands how much <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-star-offers-to-play-for-free-20220810-0018.html" target="_blank">Xavi Hernandez</a>&nbsp;relies on him. 
Due to the club's financial situation, de Jong decided to forfeit a huge portion of his earnings when he re-signed in October 2020. However, then-president Josep Maria Bartomeu rewarded him with a substantial boost for the remaining years of his contract.&nbsp;Contract extensions given to De Jong, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, and Clement Lenglet are deemed illegitimate by the Blaugrana, who are now attempting to reduce their salary cost in order to register their new players.

Barcelona: The two options Xavi Hernandez's team presented to Frenkie de Jong

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/kun-aguero-and-erling-haaland-are-now-sharing-a-manchester-city-record-20220808-0004.html" target="_blank">Erling Haaland</a>'s second goal in the 2-0 win for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/man-city-pep-guardiola-draws-parallels-between-lionel-messi-erling-haaland-20220808-0025.html" target="_blank">Manchester City</a> over West Ham last weekend was the talk of the town. It was&nbsp;a brilliant finish that required only one touch after arriving at the end of a deadly pass through the defense played by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/benzema-out-salah-and-de-bruyne-make-up-most-expensive-xi-of-2021-2022-champions-league-semifinals-20220427-0016.html" target="_blank">Kevin De Bruyne</a>. 
On 30 July, they faced up against Liverpool in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/community-shield-winners-list-by-year-20210806-0011.html" target="_blank">FA Community Shield</a>, and both players were given starting nods last Sunday by the Premier League's current champions. The pair's potential to work together at Etihad Stadium throughout the season is exciting. 
It was the ideal response from both sides, especially from the Norway international&nbsp;after he was criticized online for his mistake in the Community Shield by making an immediate impact in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/premier-league-fixtures-2022-23-tv-schedule-dates-and-teams-20220803-0018.html" target="_blank">Premier League</a>.&nbsp;The 22-year-old rising sensation <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/guardiola-compares-haaland-to-premier-leagues-legends-after-two-goals-in-one-game-20220807-0018.html" target="_blank">scored twice</a> in his EPL debut, answering his detractors' criticisms. 
<h2>Erling Haaland to Kevin De Bruyne: "I'm dreaming of it every night"</h2> 
Thanks in large part to De Bruyne, Haaland got off to a hot start in the season opener against West Ham, and the two players seem to have bonded off the field as well.&nbsp;For this reason, in a funny Instagram interaction between the two Manchester City players, Erling Haaland quipped that he 'dreams every night'&nbsp;about his new teammate. 
On Tuesday, the former Borussia Dortmund ace&nbsp;showed his followers on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/25-highest-paid-athletes-cost-per-post-on-instagram-20220218-0024.html" target="_blank">Instagram</a> a photo of himself perusing the menu at a restaurant while seated at the table.&nbsp;"About to order the whole menu," he made a witty remark within the photo's description. 
When the Belgian midfielder&nbsp;saw the post's comments, he hopped in to&nbsp;make a joke: "You want me to hold the menu and assist you?.&nbsp;Haaland continued the playful exchange with his response:&nbsp;"Yes, I'm dreaming of it every night. Don't know why." 
The Community Shield loss to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/man-city-erling-haaland-opens-up-on-his-disappointing-debut-vs-liverpool-20220805-0016.html" target="_blank">Liverpool</a> marked the beginning of a potential combination between Haaland and De Bruyne, and on Sunday against West Ham, the two finally clicked. Many Citizens' fans will be rooting for the pair to get even&nbsp;closer&nbsp;throughout the campaign. 
Since Pep Guardiola's side&nbsp;paid &euro;60 million to acquire the striker from Borussia Dortmund,&nbsp;he has been&nbsp;expected to continue his impressive goal-scoring form in England. De Bruyne is a big fan of his new teammate and has already said that he can help the squad and maybe even boost his personal scoring and assist totals.

He's their best running back, will make just north of $2 million, and he's been one of the most <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/kareem-hunt-love-for-the-cleveland-browns-is-over-the-rb-is-looking-for-a-new-team-20220807-0032.html" target="_blank">consistent&nbsp;RBs</a> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-fantasy-saquon-barkley-and-running-backs-under-the-most-pressure-in-2022-20220720-0011.html" target="_blank">in the NFL</a> in two of the past three seasons. 
But if the Raiders have proven one thing throughout the past two decades or so, it is that we can never expect them to make the right or logical decision. And that might as well be the case again in this situation. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-josh-mcdaniels-makes-a-decision-about-colin-kaepernicks-workout-20220527-0003.html" target="_blank">Josh McDaniels</a> claims that they don't want to trade Jacobs, but then why use him for four series in a meaningless pre-season game and work out more RBs? It doesn't add up. With that in mind, let's take a look at three teams that could make the most of this opportunity. 
<h2>NFL Rumors: 3 Potential Landing Spots For Josh Jacobs</h2> 
<h3>3. Buffalo Bills</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center">

The Buffalo Bills have one of the best passing offenses in the league. So, imagine what they could do if they were actually able to run the football. Unsurprisingly, Devin Singletary and Zach Moss could lose their job to rookie James Cook. 
So, even with a promising back on their roster for a change, the Bills could look to give Josh Allen another weapon. It's Super Bowl-or-bust season in Buffalo, and they sure can afford his team-friendly contract. 
<h3>2. Los Angeles Rams</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block">

</div> 
There aren't many areas of improvement for the reigning Super Bowl champions. But the Los Angeles Rams could sure add another bell-cow running back to prevent another string of injuries next season. 
Cam Akers is a tackle-breaking machine, and Darrell Henderson Jr. was efficient in a limited role, but neither of them seems able to stay healthy. Adding Jacobs would be the ultimate insurance policy. 
<h3>1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center">

</div> 
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a near-perfect offense, except for one major flaw. Yeah, you guessed it. Their running game is pedestrian at best, and they lack the personnel to change that any time soon. 
Leonard Fournette's weight has raised concerns in the off-season, and he's never been uber-efficient, even when in shape. So, why not give Tom Brady another bell-cow to try and pursue ring number eight?

NFL Rumors: Potential landing spots for Josh Jacobs

Though <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-baker-mayfields-reaction-when-asked-about-deshaun-watson-suspension-20220801-0028.html" target="_blank">Deshaun Watson</a> is expected to start on Friday's preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, it is still unclear whether he will be able <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-wholl-replace-deshaun-watson-while-hes-suspended-20220801-0005.html" target="_blank">to play</a> this year. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-the-settlement-offer-that-would-have-suspended-deshaun-watson-for-less-than-a-year-20220804-0033.html" target="_blank">Browns</a> quarterback was initially suspended for six games, but the league appealed the decision last week. 
The NFL seems to expect&nbsp;at least a season-long suspension. "[Disciplinary officer Sue L. Robinson] was very clear about the evidence, should we enforce the evidence," NFL commissioner <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-goodell-reveals-the-reason-why-the-league-wants-a-bigger-suspension-for-deshaun-watson-20220809-0031.html" target="_blank">Roger Goodell</a> said on Tuesday. "That there was multiple violations here, and they were egregious, and it was predatory behavior. Those are things that we always felt were important for us to address in a way that's responsible." 
Cleveland is already prepared to start Jacoby Brissett, but the outlook would be different if Watson has to serve a longer suspension. In the event the appeal is successful, the Browns will reportedly consider going&nbsp;after <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-former-patriots-teammates-take-a-huge-shot-at-jimmy-garoppolo-20220627-0035.html" target="_blank">Jimmy Garoppolo</a>. 
<h2>NFL Trade&nbsp;Rumors: Browns would chase Jimmy Garoppolo if Deshaun Watson's ban increases</h2> 
"The Browns will consider acquiring Jimmy Garoppolo if Deshaun Watson&rsquo;s six-game suspension significantly increases upon appeal, league sources tell cleveland.com," Mary Kay Cabot has reported. "The Browns are awaiting the ruling of Peter C. Harvey, the designee of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, who confirmed Tuesday that the league is seeking a minimum year-long ban for Watson with the chance to apply for reinstatement after the season." 
Cabot notes that Cleveland&nbsp;wouldn't mind entering the season with Brissett as QB1 as long as Watson is out for only six or eight games. The Browns, however, wouldn't think the same if Watson's suspension is increased, as the league intends. Garoppolo, meanwhile, will be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-49ers-coach-kyle-shanahan-thinks-jimmy-garoppolo-will-be-traded-20220524-0033.html" target="_blank">on the market</a> as the 49ers are ready to enter the season with Trey Lance as starter. 
<h2>Report: Deshaun Watson would settle for eight-game ban, $5m suspension</h2> 
According to Rob Maaddi and Tom Withers of The Associated Press, Deshaun Watson would accept an eight-game ban and paying $5 million fine&nbsp;to avoid a&nbsp;year-long suspension for violating the league's conduct policy: 
"The biggest question is whether the NFL would make this compromise. A settlement has always been possible, but it&rsquo;s not clear if the sides are in active discussions. The league is seeking a minimum suspension of 17 games, a significant fine over $5 million and wants Watson to be required to undergo evaluation and treatment as determined by medical experts before he could be reinstated." 
It remains to be seen how many games&nbsp;Watson will ultimately miss, but one thing is clear: this doesn't look good for him. He&nbsp;was initially suspended for six weeks, yet the NFL wants him out for at least one year. Either way, he&nbsp;probably won't see the field for&nbsp;a while.

NFL Rumors: Browns' trade target if Deshaun Watson gets longer suspension

Though it's been weeks since he submitted a trade request,&nbsp;it looks like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-kevin-durant-wants-steve-nash-out-because-kyrie-irving-hates-him-20220809-0004.html" target="_blank">Kevin Durant</a>'s days in Brooklyn could finally come to an end soon. In the wake of his reported <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-kevin-durant-gives-brooklyn-nets-an-ultimatum-20220808-0013.html" target="_blank">ultimatum</a> to the Nets, team owner <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-brooklyn-nets-owner-finally-reveals-what-is-the-next-step-towards-kevin-durants-trade-20220808-0028.html" target="_blank">Joe Tsai</a> made it clear he's on&nbsp;GM Sean Marks and coach Steve Nash's side. 
That means it's&nbsp;a matter of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-rival-teams-are-blocking-a-kevin-durant-trade-20220805-0006.html" target="_blank">when</a>, and not if the Nets will part with the 12-time NBA All-Star. While it's true that no team seems capable of satisfying Brooklyn's high demands, it's in the Nets' best interest to find him a new home. 
KD may still have four more years under contract, but moving on seems to be the best for all at this point. The big question is which team will actually offer what the Nets expect in return. Either way, Durant knows where he would like to play. 
<h2>NBA Rumors: The trade that could send Kevin Durant to the Sixers</h2> 
According to Ian Begley of SNY, Durant not only sees <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-this-is-how-the-celtics-can-land-kevin-durant-and-keep-jayson-tatum-20220726-0006.html" target="_blank">Boston</a> as a desired landing spot, but he would also like to play in Philadelphia. The report claims that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-philadelphia-76ers-have-a-suitor-for-matisse-thybulle-20220519-0033.html" target="_blank">Sixers</a> could pull it off by sending a package that includes Tyrese Maxey, among other players and draft picks: 
"Something worth noting: As of earlier this week, there were high-ranking members of the Sixers who&rsquo;ve felt strongly about engaging with Brooklyn on a Durant trade. It is unknown if Brooklyn and Philadelphia have made any recent progress on a trade. 
"Previous reports stated that the Suns were at or near the top of the list of teams Durant would like to be traded to. An offseason trade to Phoenix seems unlikely due to the DeAndre Ayton signing. So what happens now? Well, it&rsquo;s worth noting that, in addition to Boston, Durant also sees Philadelphia as another welcome landing spot, per people familiar with the matter. 
"The Sixers would almost certainly have to include Tyrese Maxey in a trade for Durant. Given the dynamics at play, you&rsquo;d think that Tobias Harris, Matisse Thybulle and other players/draft picks would be included." 
A few months ago, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-joel-embiids-petition-to-sixers-after-kevin-durants-trade-request-20220701-0024.html" target="_blank">Joel Embiid</a> was understood to ask the front office to 'exhaust' all options to bring Durant. The 76ers would clearly benefit from having a proven winner like him, but is this realistic considering that James Harden is on the team? Only time will tell how this situation unfolds.

NBA Trade Rumors: Kevin Durant adds another destination to his wish list

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-appeals-deshaun-watson-suspension-how-long-would-it-want-him-out-for-20220803-0030.html" target="_blank">Deshaun Watson</a> keeps making the rounds for the wrong reasons. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-the-settlement-offer-that-would-have-suspended-deshaun-watson-for-less-than-a-year-20220804-0033.html" target="_blank">Cleveland Browns</a> quarterback wants to play next season and will reportedly take a significant fine to avoid <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-browns-trade-target-if-deshaun-watson-gets-longer-suspension-20220811-0031.html" target="_blank">sitting out for a year.</a> 
Nonetheless, that's not what league Commissioner Roger Goodell&nbsp;&mdash; and at least half of the NFL's fanbase&nbsp;&mdash; thinks. Watson's situation was fishy from day one, and the fact that he and the Texans settled with so many people only makes things more suspicious. 
That's why <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-goodell-reveals-the-reason-why-the-league-wants-a-bigger-suspension-for-deshaun-watson-20220809-0031.html" target="_blank">Commissioner Goodell</a>&nbsp;didn't mince his words when talking about Watson. He claimed the Clemson product committed multiple violations and went as far as to call him a predator. 
<h2>NFL News: Roger Goodell Goes After Deshaun Watson, Wants Him Suspended For A Year</h2> 
When asked about why the league decided to pursue a heftier penalty, Goodell didn't hesitate to claim that the evidence proves that Watson was in violation of the league's CBA, so they have a right to punish him: 
&ldquo;Because we&rsquo;ve seen the evidence,&rdquo; Goodell said, as quoted byJames Palmer of NFL Network. &ldquo;[Judge Robinson] was very clear about the evidence. That there were multiple violations here, and they were egregious an it was predatory behavior. Those are things that we always felt were important for us to address in a way that&rsquo;s responsible.&rdquo; 
&ldquo;As you know, it&rsquo;s part of the CBA that two parties had the right,&rdquo; Goodell said. &ldquo;Either party could certainly challenge and appeal that and that was something we thought was our right to do.&nbsp;So we decided it was the right thing to do.&rdquo; 
 
<div class="ck-related-news"> 
 
 <div id="relatedNews-86">
 &nbsp; 
 </div> 
</div> 
 
At the end of the day, some will continue to defend Watson because he wasn't explicitly found guilty. But you don't have to be an attorney&nbsp;&mdash; or a genius&nbsp;&mdash; to realize that he may not have been on his best behavior.

NFL News: Roger Goodell says 'predator' Deshaun Watson committed multiple violations

The passing of 11-time NBA champion <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/michael-jordan-magic-johnson-and-paul-pierce-react-to-bill-bussells-passing-20220731-0019.html" target="_blank">Bill Russell</a> has been&nbsp;extremely sad news for the league, who lost a true icon of the sport. Back in the day, not only he shone with the Boston Celtics, but he was also a civil right pioneer. Therefore, the league has decided to honor his legacy by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-retires-no-6-jersey-what-will-happen-to-lebron-james-number-20220811-0019.html" target="_blank">retiring his jersey number 6 league-wide</a>. That makes Russell the first player in NBA history&nbsp;to have his uniform number retired across the Association. 
Despite the NBA's decision, it turns out that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-ambitious-lebron-james-makes-lakers-one-big-request-20220810-0026.html" target="_blank">LeBron James</a> doesn't&nbsp;need to change his jersey number. The reason why he can still keep his number 6 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-russell-westbrook-throws-the-lakers-under-the-bus-on-twitter-20220809-0006.html" target="_blank">Lakers</a> uniform is because the league decided that all players who currently wear No. 6 will be grandfathered in. 
Consequently, James and all players who already have the number can continue to use it. However, the number 6 jersey will never be issued again by any NBA team to any player. Therefore, James can change his number anyway but will not be able to take it back&nbsp;in the future. 
<h2>LeBron James New Number: Jersey Options If He Decides To Change No. 6 Anyway</h2> 
Though he doesn't have to, LeBron may decide to change his jersey number anyway. Let's keep in mind that he had already switched from No. 23 once out of respect to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/25-memorable-sports-stars-who-retired-and-then-came-back-20220317-0001.html" target="_blank">Michael Jordan</a>.&nbsp;In the event he switches his uniform number again, he may choose one of these options: 
<ul> 
 <li>0:&nbsp;Bronny's number (Russell Westbrook would have to change it)</li> 
 <li>7 or 12: The jersey numbers&nbsp;he used playing&nbsp;high school football.</li> 
 <li>29: The sum of the numbers he has used so far (23+6)</li> 
 <li>30: Bryce's number</li>

The Portuguese is still looking to change team this summer, but he has received tons of denials from different clubs. Of course, the fans brought up <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/karim-benzema-breaks-another-record-with-real-madrid-gets-closer-to-cristiano-ronaldo-20220810-0036.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a> into the talk and Florentino Perez, the team's president, has finally responded to this controversial question with an astonishing reaction. 
It has not been an easy run for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-upset-man-united-squad-wants-cristiano-ronaldo-out-of-the-club-20220810-0016.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> in the last couple of years. The Portuguese forward returned to Manchester United in 2021, but the team was not able to earn a ticket for the next <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/wayne-rooney-tells-man-utd-what-they-should-do-with-cristiano-ronaldo-20220808-0020.html" target="_blank">Champions League</a> and CR7 was not happy about it. This is the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-could-use-cristiano-ronaldo-in-a-swap-deal-for-a-napoli-star-20220809-0012.html" target="_blank">main reason why the attacker wants to leave</a> in order to play a tourney he has dominated throughout the years. 
During the 2022 summer transfer window, different teams entered the conversation for a possible move regarding Cristiano Ronaldo, but he received tons of denials. Now, Real Madrid's president had an astonishing reaction when some fans asked him to re-sign&nbsp;the forward as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-star-offers-to-play-for-free-for-manchester-united-amid-ronaldo-uncertainty-20220810-0011.html" target="_blank">Manchester United</a> did last year. 
<h2>Florentino Perez and an astonishing reaction&nbsp;when Real Madrid's fans asked him to re-sign Cristiano Ronaldo</h2> 
After winning the 2022 UEFA Super Cup against Eintracht Frankfurt, some fans approached Florentino Perez, Real Madrid's president, to ask him for an old&nbsp;acquaintance: <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-table-in-bid-for-ronaldo-replacement-with-premier-league-experience-20220807-0013.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>. 
They told Florentino Perez to re-sign the forward as he is trying to leave Manchester United, but the president's response was astonishing. "Again? With 38 years-old?", he said as he walked away quickly. 
With this response, it is practically a full denial from Real Madrid to sign Cristiano Ronaldo. There were no rumors surrounding this move, but it was obvious that the fans dreamed with a possible return to search for their 15th Champions League title alongside the tournament's legend.

The visitors, however, have also&nbsp;gotten off to a winning start as they took care of business against Troyes last weekend. Will they pull off a shock in the French capital?&nbsp;Or will the reigning champions&nbsp;get the job done at home? Let's take a look at the possible lineups. 
<h2>PSG possible lineup</h2> 
The most important news for Galtier is the return of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mbappe-psg-salary-how-much-does-he-make-per-hour-day-week-month-and-year-20220527-0009.html" target="_blank">Kylian Mbappe</a>, who served&nbsp;his ban in the French Super Cup before missing the Clermont&nbsp;fixture&nbsp;due to pain in his adductor muscles. With Lionel Messi and Neymar also on board, PSG will be at full strength for this game. 
PSG predicted lineup: Gianluigi Donnarumma; Sergio Ramos,&nbsp;Marquinhos, Presnel Kimpembe, Achraf Hakimi, Marco Verratti, Vitinha, Nuno Mendes; Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar. 
<h2>Montpellier predicted starting XI</h2> 
Montpellier head coach&nbsp;Olivier Dall'Oglio&nbsp;received good news too, with&nbsp;Arnaud Nordin&nbsp;coming back from injury. However, he will have to replace&nbsp;Stephy Mavididi, who was subbed off after 30 minutes against Troyes&nbsp;due to a thigh problem. 
Montpellier possible lineup:&nbsp;Jonas Omlin; Enzo Tchato, Falaye Sako, Mamadou Sakho, Theo&nbsp;Sainte-Luce; Teji Savanier, Joris Chotard; Faitout Maouassa, Wahbi Khazri, Arnaud Nordin; Elye&nbsp;Wahi.

PSG vs Montpellier: Probable lineups for Matchday 2 of 2022-23 Ligue 1

It spread like wildfire: <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/mike-mcdaniel-shares-ironic-comments-on-the-tom-brady-tua-tagovailoa-controversy-20220811-0003.html" target="_blank">Tom Brady</a>'s temporary absence from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-tom-brady-gets-hilarious-birthday-cake-from-buccaneers-teammate-leonard-fournette-20220803-0024.html" target="_blank">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a>' preseason practices spread quickly. A guy as competitive as the legendary <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-potential-destinations-for-roquan-smith-20220811-0007.html" target="_blank">NFL</a> quarterback doesn't get out of action that easily.&nbsp; 
Just turned 45, the seven-time Super Bowl winner is on the cusp of what could be his last big dance in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-aaron-rodgers-opens-up-on-jordan-loves-tough-situation-at-packers-20220810-0048.html" target="_blank">NFL</a>. In fact, his mini-retirement, which lasted only 40 days, was the first warning that his talent on the field should be appreciated as much as possible because he may soon be gone.&nbsp; 
That's why it was striking that Tom Brady has chosen to miss his probable last preseason, citing personal issues. However, the atmosphere within the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-3-trade-destinations-for-kareem-hunt-20220808-0008.html" target="_blank">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> is so serene that it is surprising. As evidenced by Bucs linebacker Devin White's surprising reaction to TB12's absence. 
<h2>Devin White respects Brady's decision to sit out Tampa Bay practice</h2> 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-tom-brady-denies-recruiting-stars-to-the-buccaneers-20220802-0005.html" target="_blank">Tom Brady</a> will not be with the Buccaneers for their first two preseason games, against the Miami Dolphins and Tennessee Titans. After that time, perhaps ten days, he is expected to return to practice for the NFL season opener in early September.&nbsp; 
As for his absence, Tampa Bay is surprisingly calm. This was Devin White's reaction to Brady's absence according to The Athletic's Greg Auman: &ldquo;Tom Brady is a grown man, growner than a lot of us in the locker room. He&rsquo;s a human. At the end of the day, he&rsquo;s got personal problems going on, but he&rsquo;s been doing this so long, he doesn&rsquo;t need to be here.&rdquo; 
While he may not be going through great times on a personal level, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/tom-brady-powerful-arsenal-following-the-signing-of-julio-jones-by-the-tampa-bay-buccaneers-20220726-0027.html" target="_blank">Tom Brady</a> can rest assured that he has the full support of both Tampa Bay and his teammates. A key aspect for him to detonate the many weapons the Bucs possess on offense.

Devin White's surprising reaction to Tom Brady's absence with Bucs: 'He doesn't need to be here'

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-star-offers-to-play-for-free-20220810-0018.html" target="_blank">Barcelona</a>&nbsp;will welcome&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/abrcelona-vs-rayo-vallecano-date-time-and-tv-channel-la-liga-20220810-0007.html" target="_blank">Rayo Vallecano</a> at Camp Nou in Barcelona on the opening matchday of the&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/la-liga-2022-23-fixtures-tv-schedule-calendar-dates-and-teams-20220809-0027.html" target="_blank">2022-23 La Liga season</a> on Saturday, August 13, 2022, at 3:00 PM (ET).&nbsp;Here, you will find the expected lineups of both teams that will appear in this Spanish&nbsp;league soccer game. You can watch it on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/soccer/?bgvideo=la_liga.mp4&amp;title=Watch%20La%20Liga%20on%20beIN%20Sports&amp;priceline=All%20La%20Liga%20games,%20Live%20and%20On-Demand&amp;cta=Start%207-Day%20Free%20Trial&amp;irad=356366&amp;irmp=3119684" rel="sponsored, nofollow" target="_blank">fuboTV (Free 7-day Trial)</a>&nbsp;in the United States. 
This will be their 39th league meeting.&nbsp;As expected, Barcelona have been the absolute favorites in head-to-head duels, winning 24 games so far; Rayo Vallecano have celebrated a victory six times to this day, and eight matches have ended in a draw so far. 
Their most recent game was played on April 24, 2022, when the&nbsp;Franjirrojos&nbsp;snatched a surprising 1-0 win away in Barcelona. It promises to be an even more exciting clash as they meet for the first time in the new 2022/2023 La Liga season. 
<h2>Barcelona probable lineup</h2> 
None of the recently acquired players (Christensen, Kessie, Raphinha, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/robert-lewandowski-barcelona-salary-how-much-will-he-make-per-hour-day-week-month-and-year-20220716-0011.html" target="_blank">Lewandowski</a>, and Kounde) or the re-signed players (Sergio Roberto and Ousmane Dembele) have yet been officially registered by Barcelona.&nbsp;It is likely that Kounde, Raphinha, and Lewandowski, among others, will make their debuts this weekend, as the club is sure that the situation will be resolved before the game begins. 
The only player who might potentially miss time for the Blaugrana is Ferran Torres, who is dealing with a foot issue, but other than that, the Catalan club is in fine physical form. In defence,&nbsp;Ronald Araujo might start at right back, while Gavi and Pedri could join Sergio Busquets in midfield. Frenkie de Jong, whose future has been the subject of much debate, is expected to start on the bench. 
Barcelona probable XI: Ter Stegen; Araujo, Kounde, E Garcia, Alba; Gavi, Busquets, Pedri; Dembele, Robert&nbsp;Lewandowski, Raphinha.

<h2>Rayo Vallecano probable lineup</h2> 
The likes of Unai Lopez, Salvi Sanchez, Diego Lopez, Camello, and Lejeune are all vying for starting roles this weekend for Rayo Vallecano. In addition, it&nbsp;is assumed that veteran striker Radamel Falcao will continue to lead the offense for the team and that head coach Iraola will keep most of the same players from last season's successful squad. 
Following the Colombian veteran, on the depth chart should be Isi Palazon, Oscar Trejo, and Alvaro Garcia, with Stole Dimitrievski continuing to start in goal despite the acquisition of Diego Lopez. 
Rayo Vallecano&nbsp;probable XI: Dimitrievski; Balliu, Suarez, Catena, F. Garcia; U. Lopez, Ciss; Palazon, Trejo, A. Garcia; Falcao.

Barcelona vs Rayo Vallecano: Probable lineups for 2022-2023 La Liga Matchday 1

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/why-wont-antonio-brown-play-in-the-2022-nfl-season-20220530-0004.html" target="_blank">Antonio Brown's</a> NFL career has been quite noisy. Despite not beign part of an active roster, the wide receiver still is giving something to talk about. Now, he has established which has been his biggest regret and surprised everybody with a controversial reveal. 
There was a time when <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/antonio-brown-takes-shots-at-bucs-tom-brady-bruce-arians-again-20220221-0025.html" target="_blank">Antonio Brown</a> was one of the best wide receivers in the league, but his attitude did not help him to grow. After his Steelers' era, he played for the Oakland Raiders, New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he was never able to return to be at a top level. 
His last team was the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/antonio-brown-takes-a-shot-at-tom-brady-after-being-cut-by-the-bucs-20220107-0026.html" target="_blank">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> in 2022. Despite having Tom Brady as his quarterback, the wide receiver's attitude did not help again. In his last game, against the New York Jets, he left the stadium mid game thanks to a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/antonio-brown-will-sue-bruce-arians-and-the-buccaneers-20220126-0006.html" target="_blank">discussion with Bruce Arians</a>. He instantly was cut and he is now a free agent. 
<h2>Antonio Brown reveals his truth: This is the WR's biggest regret in his NFL career</h2> 
Antonio Brown, who is a free agent nowadays, talked about his NFL career and his most controversial actions. Although he has made some mistakes, the wide receiver revealed which is his biggest regret as today. 
"My biggest regret in my career doesn't involve calling my GM (General manager) a 'cracker', or showing up to Raiders camp late in a hot air baloon with frozen feet, or throwing rocks at that UPS driver, and it definitely doesn't involve taking my shirt off and doing a victory lap around the Jet's stadium mid game while throwing up deuces. My biggest regret is that I'll never get to see me, Antonio Brown, play a game live. Sure, I can watch the game afterwards, but I can't imagine what that was like for you all to see something like that. Like watching the Beatles or Jesus perform at Red Rocks", posted AB in his Twitter account. 
Antonio Brown has had huge problems with almost all the teams he has been through. The 34 year-old is unlikely to sign with another institution as his most recent experience in the NFL, with the Bucs, was very shocking for everyone in the league.

Antonio Brown breaks the silence and reveals his biggest regret in his NFL career

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-potential-destinations-for-nets-kyrie-irving-20220805-0012.html" target="_blank">Kyrie Irving</a> made big headlines throughout the 2021-22 NBA season &mdash;&nbsp;but not exactly because of his work on the floor, as it wasn't until January that he suited up for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-nets-kyrie-irving-makes-absurd-demands-over-new-contract-20220811-0002.html" target="_blank">Nets</a>. Before then,&nbsp;he drew a lot of attention regardless. 
Having refused to comply with the New York City vaccine mandate for private employers, Irving stood on the sidelines for the first half of the season. The team could have counted on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-lakers-are-ready-to-trade-for-kyrie-irving-20220810-0010.html" target="_blank">Kyrie</a> for away games, but it was unwilling&nbsp;to have him only on a part-time role. 
The Nets eventually gave in and welcomed Irving back even if he couldn't play in Brooklyn. But there was some point in which they reportedly considered parting with him, until <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-kevin-durant-adds-another-destination-to-his-wish-list-20220810-0042.html" target="_blank">Kevin Durant</a> stepped in. 
<h2>Rumor: Kevin Durant Stopped Nets From Trading Kyrie Irving</h2> 
According to Rich Bucher of FOX Sports, the Nets were ready to move <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/the-raw-truth-of-kyrie-irving-alleged-dislike-of-steve-nash-and-sean-marks-is-outed-by-his-agent-20220809-0035.html" target="_blank">Irving</a> halfway through last season. However, they reportedly backed out when Durant&nbsp;stood up for him, telling the team not to trade Kyrie: 
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m told that they wanted to trade Kyrie midway through this past season, and Kevin Durant told them absolutely not. And they went along with it. Now, I&rsquo;ve also been told while they&rsquo;re still good friends that maybe KD doesn&rsquo;t value him quite the same way as a teammate. I&rsquo;m not so sure about that.&rdquo; 
<h2>Kevin Durant Has 'Checked Out' of Brooklyn</h2> 
"These are two individuals (Sean Marks and Steve Nash) that there's a level of displeasure towards, that there might even be a level, like, get these guys out of there. But to actually make that direct ultimatum, that was not something that happened before this weekend. And I think once that happened, it's clear that mentally, emotionally, like he's checked out, like he's not there in Brooklyn," Shams Charania said on the Pat McAfee Show. "And so, that's what I think has created all of this." 
Despite the efforts the team has made through the years to tailor the roster the way he wanted, Durant made it clear he wants out of Brooklyn. Now it&nbsp;appears to be&nbsp;a matter of time before he finds a new home.

NBA Rumors: Kevin Durant saved Kyrie Irving at the Nets last season

If the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-kevin-durant-gives-brooklyn-nets-an-ultimatum-20220808-0013.html" target="_blank">Brooklyn Nets</a> could turn back time, I'm pretty sure they would never, ever have reached out to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/the-raw-truth-of-kyrie-irving-alleged-dislike-of-steve-nash-and-sean-marks-is-outed-by-his-agent-20220809-0035.html" target="_blank">Kyrie Irving</a>. Irving has caused nothing but trouble within the oRganization from the very second he stepped in, and they're still <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-potential-destinations-for-nets-kyrie-irving-20220805-0012.html" target="_blank">stuck with him</a> for another season. 
Irving went MIA in his first season with the team. He claimed to be off the grid for personal reasons&nbsp;and then was spotted partying. Then, the vaccination fiasco came, and while the team respected his decision, they hoped he'd sacrifice for their common goal. It didn't happen. 
The Nets failed miserably in the playoffs, and some blamed Kyrie for their lack of chemistry. According to some reports, it even cost them <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-james-harden-and-the-superstars-under-the-most-pressure-next-season-20220805-0014.html" target="_blank">James Harden</a>, the guy they traded most of their picks to land. So, it shouldn't be surprising that the Nets didn't sign him to an extension. 
<h2>NBA News: Kyrie Irving Didn't Want To Play Back-To-Back Or 60+Games Per Season</h2> 
The Nets constantly called Irving out for his lack of commitment to the organization. And now, NBA insider Ric Bucher revealed yet another reason why the Nets didn't want to extend his contract, as he demanded not to play 60+ games a season or 'inhumane' back-to-backs. 
"Joe Tsai has already shown he&rsquo;s willing to play hardball with Kyrie by taking a max extension off the table almost immediately. Now, part of that may be Kyrie&rsquo; doing. I&rsquo;m told he wanted his new contract to guarantee he wouldn&rsquo;t have to play more than 60 games in a season and would not have to play any back the backs which he apparently referred to as inhumane," Bucher said on his Podcast.

Some believe the league should shorten the season, so that's a whole different discussion. But we're talking about a guy who's set to make&nbsp;$36,503,300 to play a game. A game that&nbsp;he refuses to play but still wants to get paid for it. 
All things considered, it's hard to envision any organization committing to Kyrie ever again or even considering accepting these conditions. I mean, all they need him to do is hoop, and now he doesn't even want to do that?&nbsp;

NBA: Nets' Kyrie Irving makes absurd demands over new contract

No one at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-lakers-are-ready-to-trade-for-kyrie-irving-20220810-0010.html" target="_blank">Lakers</a> was pleased with the way things went in the 2021-22 season, especially <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lakers-reach-key-decision-over-lebron-james-anthony-davis-20220810-0004.html" target="_blank">LeBron James</a>. The King has always had bigger aspirations than settling with making the playoffs, so we can imagine how much it may have affected him last year's result. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-russell-westbrook-throws-the-lakers-under-the-bus-on-twitter-20220809-0006.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles</a> not only failed to challenge for the championship, but it has not even qualified for the play-in tournament. James enters the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-cavs-could-use-bronny-to-steal-lebron-james-20220805-0003.html" target="_blank">final year of his contract</a>, so this season could be crucial for his future. 
Therefore, the rest of his teammates will have to prove they want to succeed as much as he does. According to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, James expects everyone to be unselfish this season. 
<h2>Lakers Rumors: LeBron James wants cohesion this season&nbsp;</h2> 
Haynes reported that James and his agent met with Rob Pelinka and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-darvin-ham-to-have-more-power-over-russell-westbrook-than-frank-vogel-did-20220803-0027.html" target="_blank">Darvin Ham</a> to discuss about the future of the team ahead of this season. In said meeting, James has reportedly made it clear he wants a change of mindset in order to compete: 
"And while contract dialogue was broached, the majority of the hour-long meeting was about expressing concerns, and hearing out strategies and opinions to assure there wouldn&rsquo;t be a repeat of last season&rsquo;s epic failure, league sources told Yahoo Sports. 
James, sources said, drilled home the importance of consistent competitiveness and cohesion, noting that last season&rsquo;s team didn&rsquo;t give themselves a chance on many nights. The focus for the future Hall of Famer is competing every night in order to give themselves a chance to compete for a championship. ... Ham agreed with James and reiterated that his main objectives are to hold everyone accountable and foster an atmosphere of selflessness, sources said." 
Darvin Ham's plan to fix the Lakers appears to be based&nbsp;on bringing discipline and a&nbsp;culture of accountability to the Lakers' locker room. That may be what James and company need to bounce back, but it won't be possible unless everyone is&nbsp;aligned.

NBA Rumors: Ambitious LeBron James makes Lakers one big request

The summer has seen a flurry of activity on the transfer front from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/which-barcelona-player-is-going-to-link-up-with-lewandowski-in-the-2022-season-20220808-0001.html" target="_blank">Barcelona</a>, as the Spanish club has added five new players to their roster.&nbsp;If they can't figure out a way to make the numbers work, all five of them will have to watch the season opener from the stands. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neither-messi-nor-ronaldo-franck-kessie-singles-out-all-time-legends-20220807-0017.html" target="_blank">Franck Kessie</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-reason-why-barcelona-cant-register-franck-kessie-and-andreas-christensen-20220707-0027.html" target="_blank">Andreas Christensen</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-robert-lewandowski-draws-parallels-between-xavi-pep-guardiola-20220809-0015.html" target="_blank">Robert Lewandowski</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/leeds-united-warn-barcelona-give-them-a-deadline-to-pay-for-raphinha-20220805-0020.html" target="_blank">Raphinha</a>, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-table-in-bid-for-another-defender-after-jules-kounde-20220803-0033.html" target="_blank">Jules Kounde</a>&nbsp;are among the Blaugrana's latest additions who are not yet eligible for registration. Xavi Hernandez's team&nbsp;are also unable to sign the re-signed <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/how-barcelona-secured-raphinha-and-dembele-deals-20220713-0012.html" target="_blank">Ousmane Dembele</a>&nbsp;or Sergi Roberto. 
Though they were permitted to suit up for exhibition games, these athletes won't be able to compete in the following season until they sign up with the league.&nbsp;The Catalan giants have been having financial difficulties, therefore their&nbsp;request to register all new players was denied by La Liga. 
<h2>Gerard Pique offered to play for free at&nbsp;Barcelona</h2> 
By pulling the fourth lever, Barcelona will be able to produce additional revenue, which will greatly aid the club's efforts to sign their new summer recruits. One of the club's veterans, though, is willing&nbsp;to assist the team in cutting expenses after having done so last summer. 
According to Spanish newspaper&nbsp;AS, Gerard Pique has even&nbsp;suggested playing for free for the upcoming season. However, Barca turned him down. Thus,&nbsp;The Athletic reports that the 35-year-old&nbsp;defender has agreed to re-sign&nbsp;at a lower salary in order to facilitate the club's registration of new players. 
The Camp Nou management had previously demanded that Pique, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neither-lewandowski-nor-dembele-the-player-in-xavis-barcelona-with-the-highest-salary-20220803-0034.html" target="_blank">De Jong</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-forced-to-make-big-sacrifice-after-signing-robert-lewandowski-20220728-0015.html" target="_blank">Ter Stegen</a>, and Lenglet revert to their prior contracts after the club's lawyers found <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-barcelona-threaten-one-of-their-players-to-change-terms-of-contract-20220808-0010.html" target="_blank">'proof of criminality</a>'&nbsp;in the 2020 deal signed when Bartomeu was in charge. As a result, more questions will be asked about De Jong's future. 
It is believed that the agreement is nearing completion after the former Spain international and his agent met with Joan Laporta, Rafael Yuste, and Mateu Alemany at a restaurant in Sant Just Desvern last Wednesday. Since one star has already committed to helping the squad, the Spaniards&nbsp;are&nbsp;counting on other stars to do the same.

Barcelona star offers to play for free to help Xavi's team register Lewandowski and new arrivals

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-brian-urlacher-claims-many-players-fake-cte-for-money-20220713-0018.html" target="_blank">Chicago Bears</a> can't <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-justin-fields-makes-worrisome-admission-about-the-bears-20220615-0006.html" target="_blank">catch a break</a>. Following a tumultuous <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-chicago-bears-teammates-take-on-justin-fields-will-hype-up-fans-20220629-0057.html" target="_blank">NFL off-season</a> with Khalil Mack's departure, now two-time All-Pro LB Roquan Smith has also formally requested to be traded. 
"I wanted to be a Bear for my entire career, help this team bring a Super Bowl back to our city," Smith said, per Yahoo Sports. "However, they have left me no choice than to play for an organization that truly values what I bring to the table." 
That's no the kind of statement you back down from, especially after stating that signing that contract would 'hurt the linebacker market as a whole.' So, now that he's out of&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/the-reason-aaron-rodgers-enjoys-beating-the-bears-might-flatter-chicago-fans-20220809-0023.html" target="_blank">Chicago,</a> where is he heading to? Let's break it down. 
<h2>NFL Rumors: 3 Likely Landing Spots For Roquan Smith</h2> 
<h3>3. Seahawks</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center">

</div> 
There's a logical path for Roquan Smith to the Seattle Seahawks. Assistant coaches Sean Desai and Clint Hurtt used to work for the Bears, and Smith is the kind of player Pete Carroll loves to have on his team. 
The Seahawks need as much help as they can get on both sides of the football. They have the cap space to sign him to the deal he wants and deserves&nbsp;and the draft capital to pull the trigger. He could take Bobby Wagner's spot in Seattle. 
<h3>2. Cowboys</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block">

</div> 
The Dallas Cowboys already have the most exciting defensive prospect in the league in Micah Parsons, so why not pair him with another young stud for years to come? It's been too long since they've been a legit contender, so it's time to make some moves. 
They have the most available cap space among NFC teams, so making numbers work shouldn't be an issue. Needless to say, he'd be a significant&nbsp;upgrade over both&nbsp;Leighton Vander Esch and Jabril Cox. 
<h3>1. Chargers</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center">

 </figure> 
</div> 
The Los Angeles Chargers already got Khalil Mack, so why not double down and land Smith as well? Pairing those two with Joey Bosa could make their defense generationally great, especially after signing J.C. Jackson in the off-season. 
Smith could start over Drue Tranquill or former first-round pick Kenneth Murray right away. The Chargers seemingly entered Super Bowl-or-bust after a big spending spree, and trading for Smith would only make them better.

NFL Rumors: Potential destinations for Roquan Smith

Due to the recent situation of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/michael-jordan-magic-johnson-and-paul-pierce-react-to-bill-bussells-passing-20220731-0019.html" target="_blank">Bill Russell's passing</a>, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-the-2022-23-schedule-release-delay-may-provide-clues-about-big-ongoing-trades-20220808-0017.html" target="_blank">National Basketball Association</a> alongside the&nbsp;Basketball Players Association decided to make a unique tribute to the player with most <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rings-bill-russell-and-the-players-with-the-most-nba-championships-20220801-0008.html" target="_blank">NBA Championship Rings</a> in the history of the sport. 
This once-in-a-lifetime&nbsp;tribute only happened in some way when <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-demar-derozan-talks-michael-jordan-and-building-a-legacy-in-chicago-20220729-0007.html" target="_blank">Michael Jordan</a> retired and some of the NBA Franchises decided to retire their No. 23 jersey to one of the greats, if not the greatest, player of all time. However, this is a diffent one because is a&nbsp;unanimous&nbsp;decision. 
Therefore, the NBA will retire No.6 jersey numbers from all the franchises. However, one of the best-selling jersey numbers is the LeBron James one with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-russell-westbrook-throws-the-lakers-under-the-bus-on-twitter-20220809-0006.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles Lakers</a>. Is this tribute going to change the four-time NBA Champion's number?&nbsp; 
<h2>Is LeBron James&nbsp;jersey's number going to change due to the No. 6 retirement?</h2> 
Despite the announcement made by the NBA and NBPA states that the No.6 jersey is going to be retire throughtout the NBA franchises, the current NBA players who wear No.6 on their jersey will be "grandfathered", according to Shams Charania of the Athletic. 
This means LeBron James can keep the same jersey number on his back, unless&nbsp;he is willing to change it. In the mean time, there have been speculations about this, because he can go back to wear the&nbsp;No.&nbsp;23 jersey. However, there are endorsments deals made that would prevent that from happening.&nbsp; 
This situation alsos applies to other big NBA players such as Alex Caruso of the Chicago Bulls,&nbsp;Kristap Porzingis of the Washington Wizards and DeAndre Jordan of the Denver Nuggets. All of them can keep their jersey number, if they want to.

However, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank">the organization that certifies him as champion</a>, the WBA, has already slapped his hand on the table and told him who he must mandatorily face. 
This news did not go down well with Bivol's promoter, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/eddie-hearn-reveals-the-two-boxers-who-would-obstruct-canelo-alvarez-vs-dmitry-bivol-ii-20220719-0022.html" target="_blank">Matchroom Boxing Chairman Eddie Hearn</a>. The British businessman wanted the Russian 175 lbs. champion to face Joshua Buatsi, who has a perfect record in the weight class after 16 fights.&nbsp; 
Even so, the WBA did not give in to Hearn's wishes and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxin-dmitry-bivol-schools-canelo-alvarez-reveals-the-mexican-mistakes-that-eased-his-victory-20220510-0015.html" target="_blank">Dmitry Bivol</a> already knows the name and nationality of the fighter against whom he will have to defend the world championship he has held since 2017: it is a Mexican, but to Canelo Alvarez's misfortune, it is not him. 
<h2>Dmitry Bivol to face another Mexican before Canelo</h2> 
There is a name that has been in boxing for years now, with important achievements, but without the global recognition that comes hand in hand with the media spotlight. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/zurdo-ramirez-vs-dominic-boesel-the-mexican-boxer-aims-to-stop-dmitry-bivol-and-avenge-canelo-20220514-0023.html" target="_blank">That is Mexican Gilberto Ramirez. </a>The nicknamed Zurdo (Southpaw) is a historic figure for his country because, before Canelo Alvarez, he was the first World Super middleweight champion of that nationality and now he will have the opportunity to become a two-division World Champion when he faces Dmitry Bivol.&nbsp; 
Ramirez, 31 years old, is ranked No. 1 in the WBA Light heavyweight division. His record speaks of his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-how-much-does-the-ppv-to-watch-canelo-alvarez-vs-gennadiy-golovkin-iii-cost-20220803-0019.html" target="_blank">boxing</a> ability: 44-0-0, 30 KOs. He invaded 175 pounds in 2019 and since then he has 5 wins there, including wins over then former contender Sullivan Barrera and Dominic Boesel.&nbsp; 
Dmitry Bivol will not have it easy against Gilberto Zurdo Ramirez as, unlike Canelo Alvarez, he is a very big man, 6.2 feet / 1.89 cm, and therefore heavy who with one punch can turn the tide of any fight. It remains to be seen if the Russian maintains his unbeaten record and heads for a possible rematch with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/the-painful-accusation-about-the-career-of-canelo-alvarez-made-by-legendary-mexican-coach-20220805-0015.html" target="_blank">Canelo, who has to beat first Gennadiy Golovkin</a>, or if Ramirez avenges the Mexican pride.&nbsp;

Not Canelo Alvarez: The Mexican fighter against whom Dmitry Bivol must defend his world title

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/gerard-pique-and-shakira-have-agreed-to-terms-of-their-separation-according-to-reports-20220712-0004.html" target="_blank">Shakira</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/pique-traveled-to-dubai-with-special-friend-after-separation-from-shakira-20220707-0005.html" target="_blank">Gerard Pique</a>'s breakup announcement shocked their legion of devoted followers in June of 2022.&nbsp;After all, they had been together for nearly a decade and had <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/gerard-pique-and-shakira-to-begin-legal-battle-over-custody-of-their-children-according-to-a-report-20220704-0008.html" target="_blank">two young sons</a>; on the surface, it seemed like they had it made. 
In a brief statement to People, the couple stated, "We ask for privacy at this moment for the well-being of our children, who are our maximum priority."&nbsp;A romance that started in 2010 when the duo&nbsp;met on the set of the "Waka Waka" music video ended in a mysterious and low-key manner. 
It didn't take long for sparks to fly, and by the following year, they were in an established relationship. They expanded their family rapidly, and periodically shared snippets of their newfound happiness on social media. 
<h2>Who is Clara Chia Marti, Gerard Pique's new girlfriend?</h2> 
Despite being one of the most reported stories of the summer, Gerard Pique and Shakira's breakup seems to have left the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-star-offers-to-play-for-free-20220810-0018.html" target="_blank">Barcelona</a> defender unfazed. The 35-year-old defender&nbsp;has been focusing on how his contract may be altered to help Barcelona's financial troubles while the Colombian singer has been dealing with the Spanish tax office. 
After the June announcement of the breakup of his&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/how-gerard-pique-cheated-on-shakira-according-to-spanish-gossip-show-20220621-0002.html" target="_blank">11-year marriage</a>, the soccer veteran&nbsp;has&nbsp;lost no time moving on.&nbsp;It seems the Spanish defender has already moved on to his next girlfriend since her name was revealed in The Sun. 
The 23-year-old <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/the-real-reason-shakira-and-pique-broke-up-according-to-the-singers-former-brother-in-law--20220627-0005.html" target="_blank">Clara Chia Marti</a> served as a waiter at a party held by Pique's firm, Kosmos.&nbsp;Since they reportedly met there, their relationship likely started well before his June breakup with Shakira. The report adds that Chia Marti, who is also a public relations student, has reportedly deleted all traces of her online presence in an effort to keep their connection private. 
<blockquote> 
 "Gerard and Clara have been seeing each other for months. They have been keeping quiet about their relationship but those around them all know what is happening. People have been helping him keep the romance hush-hush and have wiped Clara&rsquo;s social media accounts so people can&rsquo;t find photos of her. That alone makes his mates think he is actually quite serious about being with her",&nbsp;The Sun quoted&nbsp;a person in Clara's inner circle.

Gerard Pique's new rumored girlfriend: Who is Clara Chia Marti?

That lack of accountability and reluctance to make adjustments have been the only things standing between him and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-carmelo-anthony-chris-paul-and-the-ringless-players-with-most-career-points-20220807-0029.html" target="_blank">an NBA championship.</a> 
One would think that he would've changed that at this point in his career. But if anything, it's only gotten worse. Westbrook won't stop blaming everybody but him and was reportedly hard to deal with during film sessions. 
That lack of self-awareness was once again on full display on Twitter. He was caught liking a tweet throwing the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-russell-westbrook-impasse-with-los-angeles-lakers-according-to-brian-windhorst-20220723-0028.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles Lakers</a> under the bus for wanting to trade him after putting up solid numbers in the final stretch of the season. 
<h2>Westbrook Likes Tweet Dissing The Lakers</h2> 
"Russell Westbrook last 10 games: 
22.2 PPG 7.4 RPG 7.1 APG TPG 3.4 FG 52% , 3P 41.5% 
Brodie was getting into a rhythm dealing with all the injuries and lineup changes while not being used right and they want to trade him?" read the tweet.

<h2>Darvin Ham Will Have 'More Power' Over Westbrook</h2> 
Notably, Lakers' new coach Darvin Ham has shown his excitement to coach Westbrook and is reportedly set to have 'more power' over him than former coach Frank Vogel, who Westbrook openly criticized throughout and after the season. 
"Lakers head coach Darvin Ham will have more power to bench Westbrook down the stretch of games, according to league sources. (Former head coach Frank Vogel did so a few times last season). That could eventually extend to removing Westbrook from the starting lineup as well," reported The Athletic. 
"With the fifth spot, Westbrook may have the advantage considering his status, but he may end up rotating with Brown, Nunn or Walker, depending on how they&rsquo;re shooting that night," the report added. 
Those numbers were solid, but even ignoring the context, that's just something you can't address on Twitter if you're a professional player. Westbrook was a bad fit for the Lakers, and that's not his fault, nor is his huge contract. But some accountability shouldn't hurt, either.

NBA News: Russell Westbrook throws the Lakers under the bus on Twitter

NBA fans are often engaged in futile, controversial, yet entertaining debates. For example, who's the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/ray-allen-says-stephen-curry-is-not-the-greatest-shooter-of-all-time-20210210-0008.html" target="_blank">greatest shooter of all time?</a>&nbsp;Who's <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/The-15-Greatest-NBA-Players-of-All-Time-20200329-0002.html" target="_blank">the best player ever?</a><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/The-15-Greatest-NBA-Players-of-All-Time-20200329-0002.html" target="_blank"> </a>Who's the biggest bust in NBA Draft history? Or even <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/does-a-boston-celtics-player-have-the-worst-hairline-in-the-nba-20220528-0027.html" target="_blank">who's got the worst hairline in the league?</a> 
That's just common nature in sports. We feel a necessity to compare and make a case for any given player, even though, most of the time there isn't an objective way of telling who's actually better. 
Notably, that was the case in Draymond Green's latest edition of his podcast, as the Warriors star stated that Carmelo Anthony is a better scorer than <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-trade-rumors-kevin-durant-adds-another-destination-to-his-wish-list-20220810-0042.html" target="_blank">Kevin Durant</a> and explained his take with an anecdote. 
<h2>NBA News: Draymond Green Says Carmelo Anthony Is A Better Scorer Than Kevin Durant</h2> 
"I'm going to go with Melo," Green said. "The reason I'm going to go with Melo is actually this. We were playing against him at the Garden, it had to be my first or second year in the league. And Melo caught the ball in the post, he faced up on me, put his shoulder to my chest, I may have fouled him a little bit maybe not, and he went through my chest and I got the stop (as) he missed. I may be fouled him, maybe not. He turned around to the referee 'Call the f****n foul', we go back down the court (and) we come back down, he did the exact same move the next play and made the referee call the foul." 
"And the reason why that is such a big deal to me is because as a scorer you go into slumps, you have bad shooting nights and the one thing that breaks scorer's slumps can be a free throw and just knowing that Melo can get to the free throw line like that, that's why I am gonna pick Melo," Green added.&nbsp;"But man that's a pick 'em for real. Can you go wrong with either one? I don't think so."

Better scorer? Draymond Green picks Carmelo Anthony over Kevin Durant

The cat is out of the bag. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/dolphins-tua-tagovailoa-reveals-big-difference-in-miami-since-mike-mcdaniel-replaced-brian-flores-20220420-0045.html" target="_blank">Miami Dolphins</a> tried to replace <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-tua-tagovailoa-mike-mcdaniel-fire-back-at-the-dolphins-qb-haters-20220603-0022.html" target="_blank">Tua Tagovailoa</a> with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-tom-brady-gets-hilarious-birthday-cake-from-buccaneers-teammate-leonard-fournette-20220803-0024.html" target="_blank">Tom Brady</a> in the offseason and were pretty close to pulling it off until Brian Flores sued the franchise and the league. 
The NFL even stripped the Dolphins of multiple picks for breaking their tampering policy, and the story has gotten plenty of traction throughout the offseason. That's gotta hurt if you're a young QB trying to make your way into the league. 
Needless to say, the Dolphins' joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was a subject of mockery and controversy on social media. That's why <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/dolphins-hc-mike-mcdaniel-wife-family-and-coaching-career-20220221-0010.html" target="_blank">HC Mike McDaniel</a> looked to set the record straight on this so-called Brady-Tagovailoa debate. 
<h2>NFL News: Mike McDaniel Shuts Down The Tom Brady-Tua Tagovailoa Controversy</h2> 
"Contrary to popular belief, Tua doesn't play one snap against Tom Brady," McDaniel told reporters. "But it's more about the quality of this organization and the type of football they've played. It's a tremendous opportunity for all the guys when we're trying to play football at a high level. He'd probably be taking a sack if he was watching [Brady] because there will be simultaneous plays." 
"What happened? I mean, for me, nothing happened," the coach added.&nbsp;"Everyone else is the one making it awkward. It doesn't occupy a single iota of space with anybody. It's hard enough to be good in this league. As the Miami Dolphins, all of our energy is very coordinated and only has to do with us getting better. Everything else would be an opportunity cost that we're not willing to expend."

</div> 
<h2>Tua Is Sick And Tired Of Talking About It</h2> 
Notably, Tagovailoa was also forced to address the situation. For him, all he wants to do is play is shut down the outside noise. Then again, he admitted his frustration over the constant talk about the failed masterplan: 
"I would say the only thing that gets frustrating is if you hear it every day or if you see it every day," Tua said. "For me, I eliminate all of that. Don't hear it. Don't see it. I go home, go to my family, study, wake up the next day, come back and enjoy football. I hear everything obviously from the media and then when [the communications staff] preps me for whatever you guys are going to say, then I'm like, 'Ah, I've got to answer this. All right, let me figure out something politically correct to say.'" 
At the end of the day, it'll be up to Tua to silence his critics and prove to the organization that he's the guy they need for their future. So, maybe learning a trick or two from one of the best ever is just what he needs to take his game up a notch.

Mike McDaniel shares ironic comments on the Tom Brady-Tua Tagovailoa controversy

There's no doubt that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/qatar-2022-karim-benzema-talks-about-lionel-messi-argentinas-world-cup-chances-20220809-0009.html" target="_blank">Karim Benzema</a> is one of the greatest strikers <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/why-aurelien-tchouameni-and-antonio-rudiger-will-begin-real-madrid-season-on-bench-20220805-0013.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a> has had throughout its history. Now, the French forward made this situation even more clear by beating another record during the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-beat-frankfurt-in-2022-uefa-super-cup-funniest-memes-reactions-20220810-0029.html" target="_blank">UEFA Super Cup</a> and getting closer to Cristiano Ronaldo's legacy with the Spanish side. 
With the Portuguese out of the team, it was <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/qatar-2022-mbappe-benzema-and-france-choose-fancy-headquarters-to-stay-during-the-fifa-world-cup-20220802-0028.html" target="_blank">Karim Benzema's</a> duty to be a true leader for Real Madrid. The French striker did not hesitate and took advantage of this great opportunity to become one of the greatest players in the Merengues history. He is nowadays the captain and there's no way to understand the club without him in the starting XI. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/karim-benzema-pedri-among-the-players-with-the-highest-release-clauses-who-is-the-most-valued-20220706-0011.html" target="_blank">Karim Benzema's</a> goals were crucial for Real Madrid to win its 14th Champions League title, which gave them the opportunity to play for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-super-cup-champions-list-of-winners-by-year-20220808-0027.html" target="_blank">UEFA Super Cup</a> against Eintracht Frankfurt. Once again, the striker <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ancelotti-accepts-that-real-madrid-will-have-difficulties-to-compete-in-every-tournament-20220809-0019.html" target="_blank">helped his team to win another trophy</a>, but there was another award that he earned during this match. 
<h2>Karim Benzema gets behind Cristiano Ronaldo as Real Madrid's top goalscorers</h2> 
Real Madrid faced Eintracht Frankfurt, UEFA Europa League's 2021-22 champion, for the UEFA Super Cup. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-vs-eintracht-frankfurt-tv-channel-how-and-where-to-watch-uefa-super-cup-20220810-0005.html" target="_blank">Spanish side won with a 2-0 score</a>, where Karim Benzema scored the second goal. 
With this goal, Karim Benzema not only helped his team to win its first title of this season, but he also had an individual distinction. The French surpassed Raul as Real Madrid's second best goalscorer with 324 goals (323 from the Spanish legend). 
Despite the great amount of goals, Karim Benzema is still far behind from Real Madrid's top goalscorer: Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese forward scored in 450 different times during his time with the Merengues and it seems like an impossible record to break, but of course the French forward will try his best to get closer to CR7.

Karim Benzema breaks another record with Real Madrid, gets closer to Cristiano Ronaldo

Despite being heavily linked with a move out this summer, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/wayne-rooney-tells-man-utd-what-they-should-do-with-cristiano-ronaldo-20220808-0020.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> remains at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-could-use-cristiano-ronaldo-in-a-swap-deal-for-a-napoli-star-20220809-0012.html" target="_blank">Manchester United</a> with the 2022-23 season already underway. The Portuguese star's contract runs out in 2023,&nbsp;but it remains to be seen whether he plays out the rest of his deal. 
Ronaldo, 37, is believed to be keen on playing for a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/wayne-rooney-tells-man-utd-what-they-should-do-with-cristiano-ronaldo-20220808-0020.html" target="_blank">UEFA Champions League</a> club this season after the Red Devils finished sixth last term. However, there don't seem to be too many options for him out there. 
Having missed the start of preseason tour, Ronaldo was not included in the lineup for United's first <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/premier-league-fixtures-2022-23-tv-schedule-dates-and-teams-20220803-0018.html" target="_blank">Premier League</a> fixture against Brighton. According to The Sun, many teammates would prefer that Ronaldo leaves rather than continue tolerating this situation. 
<h2>Report: 'Annoyed' Man Utd squad wants Ronaldo out</h2> 
"It is really starting to annoy a lot of players now," a source told The Sun. &ldquo;He does have his allies in the camp but a lot are fed up with how he is going about things.&rdquo; 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-erik-ten-hag-breaks-silence-on-cristiano-ronaldos-future-20220711-0017.html" target="_blank">Erik ten Hag</a> has made it loud and clear he wants Ronaldo to be part of his plans in his first season at the helm of United. That said, the Dutchman expects him to follow the rules just like everyone else. 
Ronaldo was in the eye of the storm last week after leaving the stadium <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ten-hag-questions-ronaldos-professionality-after-leaving-rayo-vallecano-game-early-20220803-0037.html" target="_blank">before the end of the Rayo Vallecano friendly</a>, an attitude than ten Hag described as 'unnacceptable.' 
The future of the Portuguese striker remains unclear, with no teams showing interest in him as of late. Chelsea and Napoli were mentioned as potential landing spots in the past but they don't seem to be on the run anymore. 
Meanwhile, United need to bounce back fast following a disappointing start to the Premier League. Ten Hag's boys will try and get their first win of the season when they visit Brentford on Saturday. We'll have to wait and see whether Ronaldo starts this time.

Report: Upset Man United squad wants Cristiano Ronaldo out of the club

It's safe to say most people&nbsp;in Green Bay was thrilled to hear&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/the-reason-aaron-rodgers-enjoys-beating-the-bears-might-flatter-chicago-fans-20220809-0023.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a> signed a three-year&nbsp;contract extension earlier this offseason. For <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-jordan-love-breaks-silence-on-aaron-rodgers-contract-extension-20220525-0023.html" target="_blank">Jordan Love</a>, meanwhile, it meant&nbsp;he would have to continue waiting for his moment. 
After being drafted as a first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Utah State product&nbsp;heads into his third year with only one start under his belt. With Rodgers&nbsp;extending his deal this year, Love knows&nbsp;that (barring injury) his record&nbsp;will probably not change in the near <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/packers-ceo-mark-murphy-opens-up-on-the-future-of-aaron-rodgers-jordan-love-20220408-0029.html" target="_blank">future</a>. 
If there's someone who may understand what Love is going through, that's precisely Rodgers. Back in the day, he had to wait for three seasons before taking over for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/packers-icon-brett-favre-compares-his-career-to-tom-bradys-after-bucs-qbs-retirement-20220203-0028.html" target="_blank">Brett Favre</a>. Though the four-time NFL MVP&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;winner of the award in the last two seasons &mdash; is not showing any signs of slowing down, he can relate to Love's situation. 
<h2>Aaron Rodgers&nbsp;compares Jordan Love's situation to his time as Brett Favre's backup</h2> 
"I think there's always pressure on a first-round pick," Rodgers said, via Kyle Malzhan of WFRV, as quoted by Yahoo Sports. "The tracks are looking more similar by the day, [Love] being in his third year and me waiting behind Brett for three years. Something clicks in at some point and the game slows down and you make the plays you know you are capable of making, and I look forward to watching him on Friday.

Qatar 2022: Mexico chooses luxury and privacy for its headquarters at the upcoming World Cup

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-super-cup-2022-prize-money-how-much-do-the-champions-get-20220808-0024.html" target="_blank">UEFA Super Cup</a> is the most important competition in Europe as it pits the champions of the two most important UEFA club competitions: the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/champions-league-final-the-tactical-reasons-why-liverpool-was-better-than-real-madrid-despite-the-loss-20220528-0018.html" target="_blank">Champions League</a> and the Europa League. The most recent conqueror is Real Madrid, who defeated Eintracht Frankfurt in Finland to become a five-time Champion of this tournament and match Barcelona and AC Milan as the most succesfull teams in this tournament. 
The beginnings of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-super-cup-champions-winners-list-by-year-20210810-0005.html" target="_blank">UEFA Super Cup</a> must be traced back to 1973, when AFC Ajax and AC Milan played the first edition of a tournament that has been played almost continuously ever since. The only editions that were not played were those of 1974, 1981 and 1985. In other words, since this year it has been played without interruption. 
Since 1973 this tournament has been defined with two first and second leg games, however since 1998 it has been played as a single match. On the other hand, the duel between the champions of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/champions-league-winners-list-by-year-20220526-0035.html" target="_blank">UEFA Champions League</a> and those of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-europa-league-winners-complete-list-by-year-of-every-uel-champion-20220518-0005.html" target="_blank">Europa League</a> began in 1999, since before that it was the winners of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup&nbsp;and the UCL who disputed the title. 
<h2>Champions per year</h2> 
The most successful teams in the competition are Barcelona,&nbsp;Milan and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ancelotti-accepts-that-real-madrid-will-have-difficulties-to-compete-in-every-tournament-20220809-0019.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a>, with 5 cups each. In second place is&nbsp;Liverpool, with 4 editions won. Spain is the country with the most titles with 16, followed by England with 9.

Real Madrid beat Frankfurt in 2022 UEFA Super Cup: Funniest memes and reactions

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/which-barcelona-player-is-going-to-link-up-with-lewandowski-in-the-2022-season-20220808-0001.html" target="_blank">Barcelona </a>could be seen as the great winner in the 2022 summer transfer window, but things could change before the season starts. Days away from the next campaign, two of Xavi's side new signings could be leaving the team as free agents even without playing an oficial game. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-president-joan-laporta-hints-when-lionel-messi-could-return-20220724-0009.html" target="_blank">Joan Laporta</a>, Barcelona's president, made some huge changes in order to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/how-much-money-have-fc-barcelona-spent-since-lionel-messi-left-the-club-20220717-0028.html" target="_blank">introduce more money</a> for the institution. He activated <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/how-barcelona-secured-raphinha-and-dembele-deals-20220713-0012.html" target="_blank">four different economic levers</a> to do so, but it seems like they are not working in the best possible way and are still having some troubles with LaLiga. 
For the 2022 season, Barcelona went all in to get a better squad. With some huge signings such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-robert-lewandowski-draws-parallels-between-xavi-pep-guardiola-20220809-0015.html" target="_blank">Robert Lewandoski</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/leeds-united-warn-barcelona-give-them-a-deadline-to-pay-for-raphinha-20220805-0020.html" target="_blank">Raphinha</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neither-messi-nor-ronaldo-franck-kessie-singles-out-all-time-legends-20220807-0017.html" target="_blank">Franck Kessie</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-table-in-bid-for-another-defender-after-jules-kounde-20220803-0033.html" target="_blank">Jules Kounde</a>, amongst other, two of those new arrivals could be leaving as free agents soon if the club does not fulfil one condition. 
<h2>Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen could be leaving as free agents this week</h2> 
Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen just arrived to Barcelona this summer and they could be leaving the team soon. Both players have the opportunity to become free agents if they are not registered before this Saturday, August 13, per ESPN. 
As said before, Joan Laporta activated four different economic levers to add huge amounts of money to the institution and recover from the financial crisis. But these seems to not be working as they thought and, according to LaLiga's rules, they are still in troubles to register players <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-star-offers-to-play-for-free-20220810-0018.html" target="_blank">due to the salary cap</a>. 
Barcelona is living some crucial days. The negotiations with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-barcelona-threaten-one-of-their-players-to-change-terms-of-contract-20220808-0010.html" target="_blank">Frenkie de Jong</a> are not in the best mood as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-real-reasons-why-frenkie-de-jong-doesnt-want-to-leave-barcelona-20220804-0012.html" target="_blank">Dutch midfielder wants to be paid what he signed for</a>. If the Blaugranas are uncapable of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neither-lewandowski-nor-dembele-the-player-in-xavis-barcelona-with-the-highest-salary-20220803-0034.html" target="_blank">reducing the salary cap</a>, they won't be able to register some of their new signings ahead of the 2022 LaLiga season.

Barcelona in big trouble: Two of Xavi’s side new signings could leave as free agents

Asian players continue to make their way in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/Top-10-MLB-home-runs-leaders-in-2022-20220419-0003.html" target="_blank">Major League Baseball.</a> It seems like there's a new elite prospect ready to take the U.S. by storm every year, like this season with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-rumors-best-fits-for-seiya-suzuki-20211214-0006.html" target="_blank">Seiya Suzuki</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-rumors-willson-contreras-and-other-cubs-stars-likely-to-be-traded-20220708-0014.html" target="_blank">Chicago Cubs.</a> 
Japanese baseball seems like a never-ending source of talent, and everybody's looking to land the next Shohei Ohtani. While that may be a lot to ask and most likely an impossible task, there's no shortage of options overseas. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-trade-rumors-potential-destinations-for-shohei-ohtani-20220729-0012.html" target="_blank">Ohtani continues</a> to make history every time he sets foot on the plate or steps on the mound. That's why today, we're going to talk about him and the three Japanese players with the most career home runs in MLB. 
<h2>MLB Records: Japanese Players With The Most Career Home Runs</h2> 
<h3>3. Ichiro Suzuki - 117 HR</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block"> 
 <img data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="/__export/1660154127445/sites/bolavip/img/2022/08/10/ichiro_suzuki.jpg_22993414.jpg" width="740" height="413">

</div> 
Ichiro Suzuki had a legendary career. He amassed 3,089 hits over nearly two decades in MLB, becoming one of the most prolific hitters and base-runners to ever live. However, he 'just' hit 117 dingers in&nbsp;9,934 career at-bats, an average of 6.1 per season. 
Suzuki put together one of the greatest résumés for a foreign player, including a .311 batting average and a whopping&nbsp;509 stolen bases. He also owns an MLB record with 262 hits in a single season. 
<h3>2. Shohei Ohtani - 118 HR</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block"> 
 <img data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="/__export/1660154142807/sites/bolavip/img/2022/08/10/shohei_ohtani_x1x.jpg_22993414.jpg" width="740" height="413"> 
 <figcaption>

 </figure> 
</div> 
Shohei Ohtani might as well be the most spectacular player in baseball history. A modern-day Babe Ruth, Ohtani continues to rake&nbsp;baseballs while also striking out 10+ every time he sets foot on the mound. 
To put it in context, Ohtani's 118th home run in Major League Baseball came in his&nbsp;1,799th at-bat. He had 46 home runs last season alone and is well on pace to be the all-time leader in this regard once it's all said and done. 
<h3>1. Hideki Matsui - 175</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block"> 
 <img data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="/__export/1660154159721/sites/bolavip/img/2022/08/10/hideki_matsui.jpg_22993414.jpg" width="740" height="413">

</div> 
Long before Ohtani set the bar for what teams wanted their Asian stars to look like, people compared Asian hitters with Hideki Matsui. Even though his MLB career only lasted nine years, he still managed to make a huge impact in the U.S. 
'Godzilla' was a feared slugger during his prime with the New York Yankees. He left MLB with a .282 batting average and 175 career home runs in&nbsp;4,442 plate appearances. If that wasn't enough, he uplifted his team in the 2009 World Series to clinch MVP honors.

MLB: Shohei Ohtani and the Japenese players with the most career home runs

It&rsquo;s been a long time since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/us-open-winners-list-by-year-of-mens-and-womens-tournaments-champions-20210906-0021.html" target="_blank">Americans</a> ruled the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/canada-masters-2022-ticket-price-how-to-buy-them-to-attend-the-national-bank-open-20220807-0022.html" target="_blank">ATP Tour</a>. However, that doesn&rsquo;t mean that the US hasn&rsquo;t produced good talents. In recent years, names such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/taylor-fritzs-profile-age-height-ranking-family-and-net-worth-20220705-0032.html" target="_blank">Taylor Fritz</a> or Frances Tiafoe have been achieving some success, with Tommy Paul starting to make some noise too.&nbsp; 
Paul is part of the same generation as Fritz. During their junior days, he defeated Fritz to lift the 2015 French Open boys title and lost to him in the 2015 US Open boys final. So, it&rsquo;s not surprising that Paul&rsquo;s best results have come on clay, rather than on hard courts.&nbsp; 
Paul won his first ATP title in 2021, after defeating Andy Murray in the final of the Stockholm Open. Among his biggest wins so far, is his win against Alex Zverev in the BNP Paribas Open 2022 and defeating <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/carlos-alcarazs-profile-age-height-coach-parents-and-net-worth-20220508-0004.html" target="_blank">Carlos Alcaraz</a> in the 2022 Canadian Open in Montreal.&nbsp; 
<h2>How old is Tommy Paul?&nbsp;</h2> 
Paul was born on May 17, 1997 in New Jersey. He is 25 years old. He now lives in Greenville, North Carolina. He turned pro in 2015, after having a successful career in juniors, reaching ITF junior rank of No. 3.&nbsp; 
<h2>How tall is Tommy Paul?&nbsp;</h2> 
Tommy Paul is 6 ft 1 in tall (1.85 m). He is right-handed, and prefers a two-hand backhand. He is a versatile player, with a strong forehand. While he plays well on the baseline, he also likes to come to the net often.&nbsp; 
<h2>Tommy Paul&rsquo;s family and girlfriend&nbsp;</h2> 
According to several reports, her parents are Kevin and Jil MacMillan. However, very little is known about them. Meanwhile, according to ShowBiz Corner, the American was in a relationship with model Kiki Passo, but the pair broke up recently.&nbsp;

</div> 
<h2>Net Worth: How much has Tommy Paul earned in prize money?&nbsp;</h2> 
According to the ATP Tour, Paul has earned a total of $3,135,473 in prize money, including his singles and doubles career. He has partnered with some brands such as New Balance for clothing and shoes after breaking his deal with Nike. He also uses Wilson rackets.&nbsp; 
<h2>Tommy Paul&rsquo;s social media: What is his Instagram?&nbsp;</h2> 
Tommy Paul is very active on social media, using his Instagram account to post about his training, tournaments and personal life. His user is @tommypaull. He is also active on Twitter, in which his user is @tommypaul1.&nbsp;

Tommy Paul’s profile: Age, height, family, net worth and social media

The announcement shocked everyone: the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/does-the-2022-leagues-cup-count-as-an-official-title-20220802-0018.html" target="_blank">Leagues Cup</a> would change its format and as of 2023 would become the only tournament in the world to pit two entire leagues from two different countries against each other, in this case, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mexico-schedule-in-2022-dates-of-the-national-soccer-team-games-this-year-20220114-0009.html" target="_blank">Mexico's</a> Liga MX and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/bale-higuain-insigne-among-the-players-who-will-miss-the-2022-mls-all-star-game-20220810-0003.html" target="_blank">MLS</a> of the United States.&nbsp; 
A total of 47 teams will be involved, all competing in both Liga MX and MLS, which will face each other in a competition system that will generate 77 matches in total. The new version of the Leagues Cup will be played entirely in 15 venues in the United States. All this information was revealed by the president of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/liga-mx-only-behind-european-top-5-leagues-according-to-a-world-cup-champion-international-player-20220422-0033.html" target="_blank">Liga MX</a>, Mikel Arriola to Hi Sports TV. 
While this sounds like a saturation of activity for teams from both leagues, and an extension of the absence of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/liga-mx-dani-alves-special-star-request-to-his-coach-at-pumas-unam-20220728-0016.html" target="_blank">Liga MX</a> squads in the mythical Copa Libertadores, there is a very powerful reason why, at least on the Mexican side, the new version of the Leagues Cup has been considered attractive. 
<h2>What motivates Liga MX to play a 77-game Leagues Cup against MLS?</h2> 
One of the reasons, of a powerful nature, was revealed by Azteca Deportes insider David Medrano. A market study conducted by Liga MX found a number that totally justifies <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/leagues-cup-showcase-2022-schedule-teams-tv-and-venue-for-mls-liga-mx-event-20220414-0030.html" target="_blank">that league's teams face a 77-game tournament against MLS</a>, in the United States, in the middle of the preseason: Liga MX fans living in that country.&nbsp; 
According to the information published by&nbsp;Medrano, the Liga MX study showed that between Mexico and the United States there are 158 million Mexican soccer fans, of which 60 million are in the United States. What is interesting is that of that total number of Liga MX <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/2022-mls-all-star-game-why-is-gonzalo-higuain-not-playing-against-the-liga-mx-team-20220808-0007.html" target="_blank">fans in the United States</a>, only 32 percent are of Hispanic origin.&nbsp; 
Thus, Mexican soccer would have approximately 40 million fans that are not of Spanish-speaking origin or with origins in those lands that live in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/2022-mls-all-star-game-why-is-gareth-bale-not-playing-against-the-liga-mx-team-20220808-0006.html" target="_blank">United States</a>. A powerful economic reason to bring all Liga MX teams together to play a large number of matches in front of their idolizing fans. A rounded business, without a doubt.&nbsp;

The powerful Liga MX's reason to extend the Leagues Cup against MLS to 77 games

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-could-use-cristiano-ronaldo-in-a-swap-deal-for-a-napoli-star-20220809-0012.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/wayne-rooney-tells-man-utd-what-they-should-do-with-cristiano-ronaldo-20220808-0020.html" target="_blank">Manchester United</a>'s star player, has been trying to leave all summer, but coach Erik ten Hag hasn't given his request the go-light. The&nbsp;first game under the Dutchman's&nbsp;leadership resulted in a 2-1 loss to Brighton at Old Trafford on Sunday. 
Worries have been raised that last weekend's setback might signal the continuation of a run of bad performance dating back to last season, which the new management was hired to address.&nbsp;One of the most talked-about things in soccer now is the situation with the Portuguese, therefore&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ten-hag-questions-ronaldos-professionality-after-leaving-rayo-vallecano-game-early-20220803-0037.html" target="_blank">ten Hag</a> is frantically looking for a replacement striker. 
With the Red Devils having finished in sixth place in the Premier League last season, the Dutchman has a tall order ahead of him to guide the team into the top four and into the UEFA Champions League once again.&nbsp;They&nbsp;planned to go on a huge signing frenzy this summer, but only&nbsp;Tyrell Malacia, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/eriksen-manchester-united-salary-how-much-does-he-make-per-hour-day-week-month-and-year-20220709-0008.html" target="_blank">Christian Eriksen</a>, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/when-will-christian-eriksen-and-lisandro-martinez-make-their-manchester-united-debut-20220716-0025.html" target="_blank">Lisandro Martinez</a> have been added to the roster thus far.

The Mexican forward was an integral part of Sir Alex Ferguson's legendary career, helping the legendary manager win two Premier League championships with Manchester United. 
The 34-year-old veteran Javier Hernandez, who plays for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/chicharito-gets-severely-criticized-after-snubbing-fans-and-throwing-away-a-mexican-flag-20220802-0026.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles&nbsp;Galaxy</a> in Major League Soccer, has said that he is now committed to the team, but he has not ruled out a return to Old Trafford. 
<blockquote> 
 &ldquo;If United came for me then I&rsquo;d say &lsquo;yes, I&rsquo;ll play for free.&rsquo; Of course, you know, I&rsquo;d do that. I also want to be very respectful to my club. I am playing very consistently and in my mind, my conviction is all about winning a championship with LA Galaxy. In the future, if things happen then they happen," said Chicarito at a recent press conference. 
</blockquote> 
After Ferguson departed United in 2013, Hernandez's luck started to turn, and he was loaned out to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ancelotti-accepts-that-real-madrid-will-have-difficulties-to-compete-in-every-tournament-20220809-0019.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a> the following year after David Moyes was replaced as manager by Louis van Gaal. He subsequently spent the following year in Ronaldo's company, before leaving England for good in 2015.

Here you will find the lineups of both teams for this game. It will be broadcast in the United States on <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/soccer/?irad=356358&amp;irmp=3119684" rel="sponsored,nofollow" target="_blank">FuboTV (free trial)</a> and <a href="https://paramountplus.qflm.net/c/3119684/1007317/3065" rel="sponsored,nofollow" target="_blank">Paramount + (free trial)</a>, and on <a href="https://prf.hn/click/camref:1100lkQQp" rel="sponsored,nofollow" target="_blank">DAZN</a> in Canada. 
It will be the first official game for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/why-aurelien-tchouameni-and-antonio-rudiger-will-begin-real-madrid-season-on-bench-20220805-0013.html" target="_blank">Real Madrid</a> in this 2022/2023 season. Until now, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-new-neymar-the-16-year-old-for-whom-barcelona-real-madrid-and-chelsea-are-fighting-over-20220803-0023.html" target="_blank">&ldquo;Merengues&rdquo;</a> had only played pre-season friendlies, although they were against strong teams from Concacaf and European rivals such as Barcelona and Juventus. Although of course it is never the same as an official game, it can be said that Real Madrid arrive in good shape. 
Eintrach Frankfurt, on the other hand, already had their first official game, but the German team left more doubts than certainties in their first game. It was a 6-1 defeat against Bayern Munich for Matchday 1 of the Bundesliga. Without a doubt, this is not a very encouraging figure for the Germans who will also do everything possible to win what is undoubtedly the most important game in their history. 
<h2>Real Madrid lineup</h2> 
Despite the good level shown in the preseason, Rudiger and Aurelien Tchouameni will not be starters, just like Rodrygo,&nbsp;who will remain on the bench. Federico Valverde will be the one to join Benzema and Vinicius&nbsp;up front. 
Real Madrid starting XI: Thibaut&nbsp;Courtois; Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, David Alaba, Ferland Mendy; Toni Kroos, Casemiro, Luka&nbsp;Modric; Federico Valverde, Karim Benzema, Vinicius Jr.

The team would be more or less the same as the one after losing to Bayern Munich, although Glasner has already ruled out Jerome Onguene and Aurelio Buta due to different injuries. Filip Kostic, in whom Juventus are interested, could not play this game and move to the "Vecchia Signora".&nbsp; 
Eintrach Frankfurt starting XI: Kevin&nbsp;Trapp; Almamy Toure, Evan N'Dicka, Tuta; Ansgar Knauff, Djibril Sow, Sebastian Rode, Christopher&nbsp;Lenz; Jesper Lindstrom, Daichi Kamada; Rafael Santos Borre.

Real Madrid vs Eintracht Frankfurt: Lineups for 2022 UEFA Super Cup

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-russell-westbrook-throws-the-lakers-under-the-bus-on-twitter-20220809-0006.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles Lakers</a> dug themselves in a hole way too often last season. They got off to slow starts and failed to fight their way back into games. Moreover, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lebron-james-special-allowance-on-the-lakers-not-given-to-russell-westbrook-and-anthony-davis-20220726-0034.html" target="_blank">Anthony Davis</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-Reports-The-Lakers-path-to-renew-LeBron-James-at-least-for-two-more-seasons-20220807-0030.html" target="_blank">LeBron James'</a> injuries further derailed what seemed destined for failure from day one. 
Firing Frank Vogel was a step in the right direction. The roster was poorly built, and that wasn't on him, but he failed to make adjustments and seemingly lost his players' trust along the way. He had to go. 
Now, first-year coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-darvin-ham-to-have-more-power-over-russell-westbrook-than-frank-vogel-did-20220803-0027.html" target="_blank">Darvin Ham</a> wants to have a clean slate. He's spent the past couple of months figuring out how to get the team over the top again. And&nbsp;according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, that includes making one major adjustment. 
<h2>NBA News: Lakers Offense Will Run Through Anthony Davis, Not LeBron James</h2> 
"He voiced that defensive tenacity needs to be picked up all across the roster and also forewarned that players would have to play new roles and if he sensed reluctance, he wouldn&rsquo;t hesitate to remove them from the game," Haynes reported. 
"Furthermore, the first-year head coach said one wrinkle he will implement and stick with is having the offense run through Anthony Davis, and James concurred," Haynes added.&nbsp;"The team has been encouraged with Davis&rsquo; offseason progression and believe he&rsquo;ll be in optimum shape to avoid serious injuries and carry a heavier load. The team is also hopeful for a corner-3 shooting percentage bump from Russell Westbrook next season, sources said." 
James isn't getting any younger, so it's only natural to see him take a step back and allow Davis to be the go-to guy. If anything, the Lakers always intended Davis to carry the torch and lead the way once LeBron is no longer in town. 
LeBron is eligible to sign a two-year contract extension worth $97 million, but those talks have reportedly stalled. So, if the Lakers want to convince him to stay, they better prove they have what it takes to compete at the highest level.

Lakers reach key decision over LeBron James, Anthony Davis

It is not a secret that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-angry-with-the-press-regarding-manchester-united-exit-rumors-20220729-0019.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> is uncomfortable at&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/ten-hag-questions-ronaldos-professionality-after-leaving-rayo-vallecano-game-early-20220803-0037.html" target="_blank">Manchester United</a>, so his team is now trying to move on and transfer him to another club. With the 2022 summer market still open, the Portuguese forward could be involved in a very ambitious swap that would move a Napoli star to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-table-in-bid-for-ronaldo-replacement-with-premier-league-experience-20220807-0013.html" target="_blank">Premier League</a> this season. 
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-was-the-most-hated-player-in-premier-league-during-the-2021-22-season-20220802-0019.html" target="_blank">Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Old Trafford in 2021</a> in order to be part of Manchester United's reconstruction. Although the expectations were high, the team did not make it to Champions League's spots, a tournament that the Portuguese needs to play every year. That's why the forward could be looking for a new team that can offer him a place in the competition and the opportunity to win it again. 
But the 2022 summer transfer window has not been easy for Cristiano. Several teams denied him the possibility to defend their colors despite their need to sign a forward like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/chelsea-all-in-on-cristiano-ronaldo-despite-thomas-tuchel-not-being-100-sold-according-to-report-20220705-0008.html" target="_blank">Chelsea</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-fires-back-at-atletico-madrid-fans-amid-man-utd-exit-rumors-20220729-0023.html" target="_blank">Atletico de Madrid</a> or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-reason-why-bayern-dont-want-to-sign-cristiano-ronaldo-20220707-0030.html" target="_blank">Bayern Munich</a><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-reason-why-bayern-dont-want-to-sign-cristiano-ronaldo-20220707-0030.html" target="_blank">.</a> But now, another club has appeared as the best option for the Portuguese striker and Manchester United to end their deal and move on. 
<h2>The Napoli star that Manchester United wants to swap for Cristiano Ronaldo</h2> 
Mr. Champions has the urge to play the biggest tournament in Europe as time goes by, but Manchester United won't be in the competition this year. That's why the Red Devils searched for a player in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lorenzo-insigne-is-mls-highest-paid-player-and-makes-14m-more-than-gareth-bale-20220628-0007.html" target="_blank">Napoli </a>that could be traded for the Portuguese and fulfil his demands, but without weakening the squad. 
According to Calcio Mercato, Cristiano Ronaldo could be traded to Napoli for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/why-was-hirving-lozano-not-called-up-for-mexico-2022-summer-matches-20220531-0017.html" target="_blank">Hirving Lozano</a>. Manchester United's offer includes the&nbsp;player and 20 million euros in exchange for the Mexican right-winger. 
The reports say that both parties are very interested in this swap. Cristiano Ronaldo could be the blockbuster signing that Napoli needs and he could play the next Champions League. As for Manchester United, Hirving Lozano has proven he is a versatile forward that can play in different positions in attack. 
The 2022 summer transfer window closes in August 31 for the Premier League, so it is important that both clubs agree to this deal as soon as possible. Cristiano Ronaldo should have no problem with this move as he would be returning to the Serie A, a league that he knows very well with his Juventus' past. But Lozano would be arriving to one of the toughest competitions in Europe and to a team whose fans have&nbsp;no patience left.
