| | rantnrave:// The ALEX RODRIGUEZ redemption narrative is setting in. Rodriguez was a wunderkind, a cheater, a no-doubt Hall of Famer, an MLB pariah. But baseball's most controversial star has found a way to redefine himself again and again. His latest makeover: a budding TV career. Rodriguez is FOX SPORTS' breakout star. He reintroduced himself to the country and pivoted away from his playing days. Rodriguez is one of the best players in MLB history and a two-time PED cheat. When he retired his legacy was of a fallen idol. That seems long ago. He's sports' version of MADONNA, constantly reinventing himself. Now, Rodriguez is the bubbly, well-dressed entrepreneur on J-LO's arm. He's got a show on CNBC. The star who just wanted to be loved finally is. SportsSET: "A-Rod's Second (Second) Act"... ARA PARSEGHIAN was the head football coach at NOTRE DAME when the school was in all its glory. Other than KNUTE ROCKNE, no coach is more closely associated with the school. He made the FIGHTING IRISH a national power again and became a god-like figure at a program where football is religion. The son of immigrants who became the face of a school that defined Americana. Parseghian had a story as good as any of his teams. RIP... How will football be played in 20 years? Will eSports be mainstream? How will we watch the NHL? Will unicorns roam the NBA? The future is coming sooner than you think. SportsSET: "The Future of Sports"... World-class soccer players don't leave BARCELONA in their prime. Neymar is about to. At $262 million, it's double the record transfer fee. We've never seen a transaction like this before. Will he be better off at PSG? Neymar won't be chasing CHAMPIONS LEAGUE titles -- at least immediately -- without MESSI and SUAREZ but he'll be THE MAN and he's already got a place in history. This is how you announce your place among soccer royalty... SportsREDEF won't be landing in your inbox Friday morning. We're taking a little break. See bright and early Monday! | | | - Mike Vorkunov, curator |

|
| The world is quick to label Darko Milicic an epic NBA bust, but here are 10 reasons he is an utter success. | | |
|
| Barcelona inserted Neymar’s €222m buyout clause last year as a Not For Sale sign but playing second fiddle to Lionel Messi and the benefits of a world-record transfer have seemingly turned his head. | | |
|
| A comeback. A bruising, vindictive comeback. This 6'6", 265-pound natural disaster never looks back. No, Gronk leaves a trail of destruction in his tracks. People look back on him. He doesn't look back on them. He wears 220-pound defensive backs around his limbs like fashion statements. And the Patriots tight end just…keeps…moving. | | |
|
| You're not a doofus if you don't understand "Dota 2." I’ve put literally thousands of hours into it and I’m not always sure I understand it. But I do know it’s a lot of fun to watch. | | |

| Sacrificing basic freedoms and brushing off safety concerns, dozens of Americans have traveled to a hostile country to compete in the Pyongyang Marathon. | | |

|
| Or, at least make it one of a few permanent homes for future Olympics. | | |
|
| From around 2008 to 2012, Miguel Treviño Morales, a leader of the infamous Los Zetas cartel, spent and made millions of dollars buying, breeding, and racing American quarter horses, with help from his law-abiding American brother and a wealthy young Austin rancher. | | |
|
| “I think there is this false idea floating around that to be ‘allowed’ to write about sports you need to be distanced or severed from your feelings, but the truth is there are so many different, equally valid approaches to this conversation.” | | |
|
| After more than three years of preparation, the final countdown to the debut of Major League Soccer’s Video Review program on Aug. 5, only the third top-flight league in the world to debut the technology (after Australia's A-League and South Korea's K-League), has begun. And the rest of the planet will be watching. Closely. | | |
|
| As a brand, adidas is enjoying a flurry of momentum unlike ever before, with innovations like Boost carrying footwear, and partnerships with an endless flow of creators bringing a new lens to the company's design language. | | |
|
| Campagnolo's biggest problem in recent years has been dwindling OEM spec. The company now has a plan to correct course, and time will tell if it succeeds. | | |
|
| He made $500 million playing baseball then became a scandal-plagued Yankees pariah. Now, Rodriguez is on ABC, CNBC and Fox Sports, rebooting himself as more than a jock turned broadcaster (and J.Lo's beau), and he may have the secret to a successful second act: "You have to own your s***." | | |
|
| Players say they smoke after games, after practice and throughout the season. Can they convince leagues and lawmakers of the positives of pot? | | |
|
| Los Angeles’ plan for an Olympics on the (relatively) cheap should change the games forever. | | |
|
| Too many times, we’ve seen parents seeking attention through their talented children; unfortunately, we know how it usually ends. | | |
