Josh Hammer is Newsweek opinion editor, a syndicated columnist, a research fellow at the Edmund Burke Foundation and of counsel at First Liberty Institute. There is hardly a woman alive who has not, in her teen years, challenged a boy her age to some competition she easily dominated when they were young, only to discover that in the footrace, the arm-wrestling match and the attempt to move a heavy box, the young man now has the better of her....

Sarri arrived at Stamford Bridge from Napoli ahead of the 2018-19 campaign, apparently set to change the way Chelsea played, installing a more expansive style. Chelsea supporters never quite took to the Italian, though, and even the Europa League title and a place in next season’s Champions League did not appear to improve his standing. So, will Sarri’s sole season in the Premier League ultimately be deemed a success? Omnisport writers Tom Webber and Ben Spratt argue either side....

The 72nd Mechanized Brigade confirmed the death of Major Andrii Verkhohliad in a Facebook post, an announcement it made “with sadness and regret,” according to an English translation. “Nobility and determination, courage and boundless, incredible cheerfulness,” the post read. “One of the best commanders, the pride of the brigade. It is impossible to imagine [Andrii] behind the curtain of earthly life. Our family’s hearts are full of grief and rage....

The details remain unclear. “We haven’t seen anything in writing,” Senator Debbie Stabenow, a Michigan Democrat, told reporters on Wednesday. But it appears Democrats are willing to cut an agreement with Republicans that would extend the debt limit into December. “This will moot Democrats’ excuses about the time crunch they created and give the unified Democratic government more than enough time to pass standalone debt limit legislation through reconciliation,” McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, said in a statement on his offer....

As a young lawyer in San Francisco, Crum amassed friends ranging from press tycoon William Randolph Hearst to Harry Bridges, the union activist long reviled as a communist. A passionate liberal, he worked frenetically for Republican Wendell Willkie, then accepted from President Truman a plum postwar assignment on the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry Into Palestine. His outspokenness on the plight of Holocaust survivors was instrumental in getting them admitted to Palestine....

But he was awfully good. And when he wakes up Sunday morning, he’ll be the frontrunner to win the Heisman Trophy and his Bulldogs just might be the No. 1 team in the country. All week we’ve heard Dak Prescott this, Dak Prescott that. And make no mistake: Dak Prescott is all that — and then some. But on Saturday against the second-ranked Tigers, Prescott faced something he’d not seen this season — adversity....

‘Money, Money, Money…’ As an American living abroad, I shuddered at the overt tone of self-abasement before the hollow ideals of greed and selfishness expressed in your article “They’re Rich (And You’re Not)” (U.S. Affairs, July 5). If there’s a party celebrating the booming economy, at whose expense is it being held? Look around you, America: not many other nations are partying like you. I don’t think any other society in history so brazenly deified its citizens merely because of their ability to hoard money....

DeGrom struck out 10 over six innings, received rare significant run support and earned his first win in nearly two months as the New York Mets blanked the Cincinnati Reds 8-0. “Almost every game he’s pitched in, one pitch can cost him the game,” Mets manager Mickey Callaway said. “So I feel like all of those are stressful innings. “Jacob is so relaxed, he might not feel the stress of those, but I would have to think every time a runner gets in scoring position or every time a home run hitter gets up that he steps on the gas a tad more to make sure he doesn’t even give up one run....

But his Jackson State players and coaches aren’t too concerned over the possibility. According to a report from the Mississippi Clarion Ledger, running backs coach Gary Harrell said the team hasn’t even addressed the interview because “the players did a good job of impressively not even flinching.” “There were no conversations about it,” Harrell said. “The staff heard about it. We know Coach Prime was pretty much in the hospital and don’t know how that can happen....

The Delhi government on Monday proposed to start sports-centred academic courses to encourage budding sportsmen. Deputy Chief Minister and Education Minister Manish Sisodia said here the Delhi government is planning to initiate graduation degrees in sports to provide a fillip to budding sportsmen, who could then pursue their careers without suffering in academics.

The incident took place in the aftermath of last month’s 0-0 Premier League draw at home to Burnley, when Moyes had been asked if he felt under additional pressure due to chairman Ellis Short’s attendance at the game. The former Manchester United manager claimed he regrets what happened and has been in touch with the reporter, Vicki Sparks, to say sorry. “It was in the heat of the moment,” said Moyes....

His wrist injury could require surgery, and Cleveland announced Friday he has been moved to injured reserve, which will keep him out of commission for at least eight weeks. Njoku is seeking a second opinion on whether surgery is necessary though. The 23-year-old appeared to be primed for a breakout season, as the 2017 first-round pick out of Miami tallied 56 receptions for 639 yards with four touchdowns last year....

The Boston heroes dropped their third single of the season on Tuesday and they decided to slow it down a bit for the ladies coffee drinkers.

ICC Chief Executive David Richardson presented the mace to Misbah at the home of Pakistan cricket at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore and Pakistan captain Misbah said it was befitting that the mace presentation was taking place there. “There can’t be a better location to receive the ICC Test Championship mace than this ground where we last played a home Test seven years ago,” said Misbah. “It is ironic for both the players as well as the fans that the journey to the number-one position has been outside Pakistan....

Manchester City star Sane continues to be linked with a move to the Bundesliga champions despite club president Uli Hoeness admitting the cost of such a deal could be beyond their reach. Davies joined from Vancouver Whitecaps in January and scored one goal in six league appearances, all of which came as a substitute. The 18-year-old is expected to play a bigger role under Niko Kovac next season, with veteran wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery leaving the Allianz Arena....

“He’s not quite the personality that wants a pick,” Love said after his Tuesday practice round at the Wells Fargo Championship when asked about the possibility of Woods being a captain’s pick for the U.S. “I think he wants to earn his points and I wouldn’t put it past him if he’s healthy to get on a roll. But he has to get out and play first. That’s the big hurdle....
