This gives players more choice and helps teams build better strategies. Here’s a look at all of the Cleaners present in Back 4 Blood and what each one of them can offer the team....

After watching hours of future NFLers running the 40 and working their way through passing drills, we decided to take a shot at recreating an aspect of the Combine in our Charlotte, N.C., office. Because our cubicle set-up isn't exactly conducive to long passing routes, the only option we had was to sit down and take the Wonderlic test. The Wonderlic, by design, is a test that the NFL uses to evaluate a player's decision-making skills, as well as estimate his ability to learn and problem-solve....

However, plans for the handicap match featuring Big Show and Mark Henry taking on The Shield for SummerSlam still hold good....

After having been awarded byes in the first two rounds at the event, Saina faced Nozomi Okuhara in the third round. In a match that tested the abilities of both players, the Indian ace displayed great resolve to win the contest, 21-14, 10-21, 21-10. P V Sindhu, on the other hand, hardly broke a sweat as she dispatched Teng Lok U of Macau in straight games, 21-8, 21-9 to set up a mouth-watering contest against World Number two Li Xuerui....

The Chines pairing dominated right from the outset, winning 6 points on the trot in Game 1 as compared to their opponents’s 2 and then further continued their impressive showing the next game as well in a match that lasted just under 30 minutes. While India have done well in the singles draw of the tournament so far, the performance of the doubles has been contrastingly disappointing. Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa bowed out in the opening round of the women’s doubles on Tuesday as did the men’s doubles pairing of Akshay Dewalkar and Jerry Pranaav who also suffered a first-round exit....

American Pharoah was made the morning-line favorite to win the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby upon drawing the No. 18 post Wednesday afternoon at Churchill Downs. Track handicapper Mike Battaglia installed American Pharoah at 5-to-2 odds. While the outside post is not exactly ideal, it’s far better than being on the rail and it figures to suit the colt’s front-running running style nicely. “Outside doesn’t really bother me,” trainer Bob Baffert said on NBC Sports Network’s coverage of the Derby’s post-position draw....

Kyle Busch’s record at Charlotte Motor Speedway is baffling. In the NASCAR Nationwide Series, he has seven wins at the track. He has five NASCAR Camping World Truck Series wins there. Oddly, he has yet to reach victory lane in Sprint Cup competition despite leading a series-high 787 laps in the last 11 races there. Busch ranks second in Production in Equal Equipment Ratings (PEER) at Charlotte, per MotorsportsAnalytics.com, thanks mostly to seven top-five finishes in the aforementioned span....

Located in the middle of nowhere, the circuit has been described of having all the charm of an airport departure lounge, although some of the more modern airports might be offended by the comparison. Like many sporting arenas in the Middle east, its existence is down to the enthusiasm of enthusiast Crown Prince Sheikh Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa and funding from government-backed investment companies. A racing enthusiast, the Crown Prince is the honorary president of the Bahrain Motor Federation....

Bailey scored with 1:26 remaining — on the Islanders’ first shot on goal in the period — to edge the Rangers 4-3 on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden. “It was pretty ugly on our part,” said Mathew Barzal, who had a goal and two assists. “We all know that, our coaches know that. … It was a tough period, but it was obviously nice to get a goal there at the end....

United fans angry at Smalling The Ivorian defender appeared to sustain a muscle injury just minutes into the second half, going down heavily after trying to challenge Eden Hazard. Bailly was left on the ground clutching the back of his leg, and despite clambering to his feet was immediately replaced by Marcos Rojo. Speaking after the game Jose Mourinho confirmed he had damaged his ligaments. “Bailly is injured and I’m afraid it’s a bad one....

Usman Khawaja (171) made a magnificent century, while Steve Smith (83), Shaun Marsh (98 not out) and Mitchell Marsh (63no) also made the tourists toil in the Sydney heat on day three. Australia are well on course to win the series 4-0 on 479-4, leading by 133, but Bairstow says England remain united and in good spirits. “It was a pretty tough day. We are 150 overs into the innings so there’s going to be a few tired bodies out there....

That depends on how University of Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield’s week of practice unfolds. Mayfield said Wednesday night that he was taking a wait-and-see approach as to whether he would participate in Saturday’s college all-star contest. “We’ll see how I finish up the week of practice,” Mayfield told co-host Rick Neuheisel and me on SiriusXM NFL Radio. “I have three years of game film for people to watch if they want to see how I handle games....

Azarenka broke down in tears after a first-round defeat to Laura Siegemund at the Australian Open in January as she spoke of her struggle to regain top form. The 29-year-old was all smiles in Acapulco on Saturday, though, after she and Zheng combined to defeat Guiliana Olmos and Desirae Krawczyk 6-1 6-2. Azarenka’s triumph was her first since her son, Leo, was born in 2016 and the popular Belarusian revelled in being back in the winner’s circle....
