Dunga Relies on ‘Gringos’ for Last Brazil Squad Announcement of 2014

It’s time to give the gringos a go. As far as Brazilian footballers go, anyway. Dunga made his final squad announcement this year for the Selecao’s upcoming friendlies against Turkey and Austria without a home-based player in sight. In addition, these two contests represent a real chance to end 2014 on a high. Should Brazil manage to walk away from both with victory, that would make it...

What Serena Williams’ Rout over Eugenie Bouchard Says About the 2015 Season

Ranking the 10 Best Drivers of the Golf Ball on the PGA Tour

As we have heard over the years in baseball and golf, chicks dig the long ball. Especially in golf, the long ball may be entertaining but it’s not a guaranteed gateway to victory.

Brazil Right to Call Up Born Winner, Champions League Ace Luiz Adriano

Luiz Adriano’s Brazil call-up is as sensible as it is richly-deserved. Sensible, for a national side in desperate need of an in-form centre-forward, and richly-deserved, for a player who scored a Champions League quintuple on Wednesday and, at 27, is Shakhtar Donetsk’s record goalscorer. Selecao manager Dunga made the decision on Thursday, as per the Guardian, and also brought the striker’s...
