The play was pure Parker: a high-arching shot off the dribble that won a big game. Parker uses his understanding of angles as well as anyone in NBA history. He also wins as much as just about anyone in NBA history.

Romo’s charm in the broadcast booth is one thing. But he has impressed many with his habits of predicting plays seconds before they are run, a product of the knowledge he gained through 13 NFL seasons as a quarterback in Dallas. The early success in his analyst role is why Romo, 38, is expected to get a massive raise from CBS. MORE: Romo to explore surprising topic on Super Bowl broadcast...

Toshiro Muto defended Tsunekazu Takeda, who is the head of the Japanese Olympic Committee and a vice president of the 2020 organizing committee.

TOKYO (Reuters) - Tokyo won the 2020 Olympics on its reputation for efficiency, but a string of blunders has now been compounded by the city’s new governor halting relocation of the world’s largest fish market, jeopardizing a road needed for the Summer Games.
