Then there are the tall timber guys — most often in the lock position — like the 6-foot Rory Arnold of Australia, his 6-foot-8 teammate Adam Coleman, or Brodie Retallick of New Zealand and Eben Etzebeth of South Africa, also both 6-foot-8, and quite a few others who look like they would be comfortable in the N.
No sport is more often used to tell the story of America than baseball. His original lawsuit against the Yankees and M. Each new year brings bigger crowd figures, new competitions, increased television coverage and new records being set. Though the Nets had just been eliminated by the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the playoffs, they had overachieved and shown some promise for the future.
Little did New York fans know that it would be four dreadful years before playoff basketball would return to the city. It finally will on Thursday night, when the Nets host the Philadelphia 76ers in a series tied at one all. While there has been no playoff basketball in the city in the interim, much has happened in those four years. And for Knicks and Nets fans, not much of it has been good.
But the widespread rebuilding phenomenon — or tanking, as some call it — resulted in eight teams with at least 95 losses last season, the most in history. It was no coincidence that attendance also dropped by more than three million fans, falling below 70 million for the first time since Richard Lewis, the outgoing chief executive of Wimbledon, hopes tennis can be "off and running again" by August, when the US Open is scheduled to begin, although he admits there may be "no more tennis this year".
Speaking the day after the All England Club finally cancelled the championships for the first time since the second world war, Lewis acknowledged that uncertainty has gripped tennis because of the continued spread of coronavirus.
The high point remains the defeat of Leicester City on Boxing Day, one of those rare performances where each component part of a sporting machine appears to be operating with some intimate, shared knowledge of the other pieces.

This toothpaste, though mighty popular, has never been a favorite of mine. I've used it many times over the years and always find it to be too sticky. However, I do know many people who are loyal to this toothpaste and also have pretty great teeth, so this isn't to say it's a bad whitening toothpaste.
Another popular option, this whitening toothpaste felt liquidy yet grainy and left a residue I wasn't fond of on my gums and tongue. This wore off after just a few moments, but I kind of felt like a dog licking his chops after eating peanut butter for those few moments.

Although some natural-product advocates warn that too much fluoride can stain or discolor your teeth, this is largely a problem for young children whose teeth are still emerging , not adults.
The American Dental Association ADA maintains that topical fluoride—like that included in most toothpastes—is not only safe to use but can help prevent tooth decay and cavities.
Since cavities can stain and discolor your teeth, keeping your teeth free of cavities is an easy way to keep them naturally whiter. Be wary of any toothpaste that says it will whiten your teeth dramatically with just a handful of applications. Instead, he adds, expect to see subtle results over time, assuming you have noticeable stains from coffee, soda, tea, and smoking. Technically yes, says Dr. Lau, since many of these products whiten by scrubbing your teeth with abrasives or using peroxide to fade stains.
These can wear away enamel and cause sensitivity, but typically only if you're using them inappropriately. Bertman agrees, saying that only improper brushing or excessive use of whitening toothpaste poses a risk to your enamel and, eventually, the sensitive tooth structure called dentin that lies underneath your enamel.
If your teeth are feeling sensitive even with correct use, you can swap out your whitening toothpaste for something gentler after a few weeks of use, or alternate a whitening toothpaste with something like Sensodyne.
Bertman says whitening toothpastes are abrasive enough to clean surface stains off your teeth, but unfortunately, this means they can also cause your gums to become sore over time—especially if you brush too aggressively.
He says you need to use these toothpastes consecutively for multiple days, even weeks, in order to see any kind of results, but doing so can have side effects. Lau does warn again about the importance of moderation, especially since many of these products have abrasive ingredients that can affect your enamel and gums.
