Analysis: Eagles, 49ers clear front-runners in NFC; AFC is more jumbled

The Eagles and 49ers are the clear front-runners in the NFC while the AFC is jumbled five weeks into the season.San Francisco made the biggest statement so far with a dominant 42-10 win over Dallas on Sunday night. The 49ers (5-0) have been the NFL’s most complete team. They can win behind Brock Purdy’s passing, Christian McCaffrey’s running or by leaning on Nick Bosa and a stingy defense.An offense that’s loaded with Purdy, McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, Brandon Aiyuk easily handled one of the league’s top defenses. The Cowboys couldn’t do anything to stop San Francisco. Injuries might be the only thing that can slow down the 49ers. They learned that last season when Purdy, who began the season as the No. 3 quarterback, tore an elbow ligament in the NFC championship game against Philadelphia.The defending NFC champion Eagles (5-0) are still building their identity, but keep finding ways to win despite playing below the standard they set last season on their way to a Super ...Lexi Thompson ready for the bright lights of Vegas and big stage of PGA Tour

In the midst of one of her roughest years, Lexi Thompson faces her biggest challenge.Thompson was coming off her first top-10 finish of the year two weeks ago when she said her management company told her the Shriners Children’s Open had offered her a sponsor exemption to play on the PGA Tour.“It was basically an automatic ‘yes,’” Thompson said Tuesday at the TPC Summerlin after playing a practice round with Michael Kim and Ben Griffin. “I’m just very honored that they want me here to compete this week, and hopefully send out an inspiring message.”Thompson, 28, will be the seventh woman to play on the PGA Tour, and the first since Brittany Lincicome in the 2018 Barbasol Championship.The most notable 20 years ago was Annika Sorenstam at Colonial as a sponsor exemption and Suzy Whaley at the Greater Hartford Open as the PGA section champion.

(CNN) — En sus más de tres décadas en política, Benjamin Netanyahu ha acumulado casi tantos apodos como victorias electorales.“El mago”, por su asombrosa habilidad para arrancar la victoria de las fauces de la derrota. “El Rey Bibi” por permanecer en la cima de la política israelí más tiempo que nadie. Y, universalmente, aunque no necesariamente con afecto: “Bibi” a secas. Pero hay otro con el que se deleitaba, y que ahora parece no ser más: “Sr. Seguridad”. ¿Cómo salió todo tan mal?Cronología: así fueron, paso a paso, el ataque de Hamas y la respuesta de IsraelSigue sin estar claro cómo más de 1.000 combatientes de Hamas consiguieron tomar a Israel por sorpresa de una forma tan devastadoramente mortífera, asesinando, como escribió el presidente Isaac Herzog, a más judíos en un solo día que en ningún otro momento desde el Holocausto.Y por ahora, los oponentes de Netanyahu no piden que éste dimita. “No me ocupo ahora de qui...México evacúa a 135 de sus ciudadanos de Israel en un vuelo militar
