As Wales' all-time top scorer with 40 goals in 108 caps, Bale's pedigree is not in doubt. It began full of promise with Bale netting twice in his opening four MLS games, but he has not scored since. He has made 12 appearances in the MLS this season, making just two starts. With Bale in the side, Wales are getting used to making major championships, which had previously been tantalisingly out of reach. At 33, his career may be in its twilight, but Bale has warned against reading too much into his MLS displays.

Here's how Stern ascended from cable TV to the top of the tech giant, and what his moves mean for the future of Apple Services.

In late 2021, a wildfire tore through the Boulder suburbs and destroyed nearly 1,100 homes. Roughly 10 months after that blaze, known as the Marshall Fire, the vast majority of the burned lots remain vacant. "Open space with the ability to build what you want — that really doesn't exist in Boulder County," Jennifer Eiss, a Boulder real-estate agent with Compass, said. The median sale price for Marshall Fire lots that sold in the third quarter was $416,000, according to MLS data. Newer, more-sustainable building methods, combined with an emphasis on protective borders around homes, could help mitigate fire risks, Pechet said.

A partnership with Apple would allow the NFL to build a relationship with the deepest-pocketed company in the world. But existing restrictions around Sunday Ticket have slowed negotiations between Apple and the NFL in recent months, according to people familiar with the matter. The NFL and Apple, two of the most powerful corporate entities in the world, are used to getting what they want. "We weren't interested in buying sports rights," Cue said this week at a Paley Center for Media panel in New York. Those deals guarantee exclusivity of local games.
The other day, Linda, the real-estate agent whom my wife and I used to buy our home, called me out of the blue. Real-estate agents, like doctors, are the friendly, knowledgeable face of a bewildering, price-gouging system. If Americans paid the same rate as the British, they would save more than $72 billion a year in real-estate commissions. The potential for big money, in turn, has led more and more Americans to become real-estate agents. Every dollar that is paid out in a real-estate transaction — to sellers, agents, inspectors, insurers, and the IRS — comes from you, the buyer.
The average 30-year mortgage rate climbed to 5.89%, the highest level since 2008, according to new data published Thursday by Freddie Mac. Mortgage rates briefly declined for a period this summer even as the Federal Reserve raised the key interest rate to fight inflation. In remarks Thursday morning, Powell signaled the Fed intends to keep rates higher for longer. The higher mortgage rates are already weighing on home prices. Even as mortgage rates tick higher, home shoppers should be able to easily find rates lower than the average, Freddie Mac said.
Cum a fost contactat de Pep GuardiolaSergio Ramos este aproape de Manchester City, anunță cei de la ESPN, citați de cotidianul spaniol AS. Pep Guardiola este cel care insistă pentru căpitanul lui Real Madrid, aflat la final de contract. Manchester City a pierdut recent finala Ligii Campionilor contra lui Chelsea, iar o eroare defensivă a înclinat balanța în favoarea lui Chelsea la golul lui Kai Havertz.

Legendarul David Beckham cooptează la clubul său pe foștii săi coechipieri. Proprietarul clubul de fotbal Inter Miami l-a ales să fie antrenor principal pe Phil Neville, cel cu care au făcut istorie la Manchester United. Cei doi au ajuns deja la un acord, iar Neville a părăsit postul de selecționer al naționalei de fotbal feminin a Angliei. Anterior, Neville a fost secund al mai multor tehnicieni cunoscuți, printre care Stuart Pierce, Nuno Espirito Santo și David Moyes.

Mai multe echipe sunt pe urmele starului argentinian de 33 de ani, dar PSG şi Manchester City par favorite să obţină semnătura acestuia. Campioana Franţei are însă un mare atu: Mauricio Pochettino, noul antrenor al parizienilor, a venit cu o variantă foarte tentantă pentru Messi. Gruparea patronată de David Beckham a atras mai multe staruri pe final de carieră, precum Gonzalo Higuain sau Blaise Matuidi, iar Messi ar fi următoarea lovitură. Starul argentinian a declarat de mai multe ori că MLS este o posibilă destinaţie pentru el şi că visează să joace în SUA pe final de carieră. Iar PSG vrea să profite şi a pus la punct un plan de bătaie, cu o ofertă de nerefuzat pentru Messi.

Messi şi-a dorit să plece în august, însă n-a fost lăsat de fostul preşedinte, Josep Maria Bartomeu, iar, în ciuda demisiei lui Barotmeu, relaţia dintre Messi şi Barcelona e în continuare tensionată.
