If anybody knows what it’s like to play in MLS after starring in Europe, it’s Wayne Rooney. The former Manchester United standout broke through in the English Premier League as a teenager with Everton in 2002, then anchored United for nearly 400 appearances from ’04 to ’17 before coming to play for D.C. United in ’18.
So with Argentinian superstar Lionel Messi nearing his debut for Inter Miami CF, the English legend had some words of wisdom to pass along: Don’t expect success to come easy.

Steph Curry sank an 18-foot downhill eagle putt on the 18th hole to seize the win at the American Century Championship.
Steph Curry is having a great day. He sank an improbable downhill 18-foot eagle putt on the 18th hole to win the American Century Championship. The moment was incredible as he and the fans enjoyed the moment together.
Curry tossed his hat in the air and sprinted to join the fans in unison.
Look out below! Sunday’s NBA Summer League game between the Houston Rockets and Utah Jazz saw one of the nastier shots to the groin seen in sports all year.
The nutty play went down in the first half.
Houston Rockets rookie Nate Hinton was accidentally pushed to the ground by his teammate, landing under the rim where Utah Jazz forward Ed Croswell was left hanging after a dunk.
Croswell eventually gave up his grip and crashed his right foot right on Hinton’s jewels.
The “stomp” looked brutal.

People are red-hot over an ‘antisemitic remark’ made by MLB Hall of Famer, Johnny Bench. The former Cincinnati Red attended Saturday’s Reds Hall of Fame induction press conference, set to honor former general manager Gabe Paul and pitchers Bronson Arroyo and Danny Graves.
The departed Paul (1910-1998) wore his Jewish faith on his sleeve.
Baseball player Johnny Bench of the Cincinnati Reds. Bench hit more than 200 home runs and was the National League’s Most Valuable Player on several occasions.
Steph Curry is the 2023 American Century Championship winner. And he won the celebrity golf tournament in extremely dramatic fashion. Trailing going into the final hole of the tournament, Curry sank a long-eagle putt to capture victory. But just minutes before, a major controversy took place.
Curry entered the final round with 50 points. The American Century uses modified-Stableford scoring instead of the traditional stroke-play format. He led former tennis player — and 2020 American Century Champion — Mardy Fish.
Yankees All-Star starting pitcher Gerrit Cole turned in another outstanding outing on Sunday, throwing 102 pitches across six innings in a no-decision against the Rockies. Cole struck out 11 batters in the game, marking the 24th 10-plus strikeout performance of his tenure in New York.
That tally lifts him above legendary southpaw Ron Guidry for the most such games in franchise history. Guidry’s record stood since 1988 when the four-time All-Star retired from MLB.
The 11 strikeouts on Sunday tied a season-high for the Yankees ace.
