“… that amazing moment when you hear a song you haven’t heard in years, yet you remember every word.” — graffiti.Bridge involves drawing on your experience. A good declarer may survey dummy and say, “I’ve seen this situation before.”Today’s North opened and rebid clubs with a light hand, and South launched into Blackwood. When North showed two aces, South might have bid seven hearts, a good spot if North had held longer clubs.ENTRIESAt six hearts, South won the first diamond with the queen, drew trumps, took the A-K of clubs and ruffed a club. When West discarded, South lacked the entries to set up and cash the fifth club; he tried the ace and another diamond, hoping for a lucky break. No luck; down one.An experienced declarer might see the winning play. After South draws trumps, he plays a low club from both hands. He wins the diamond return, takes the top clubs and ruffs a club.

Lukaku’s arrival at Roma rekindles memories of Batistuta’s move to the Giallorossi

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:13:25 GMT

ROME (AP) — For a brief period this week, the plane carrying Romelu Lukaku from London to Rome via Brussels was the most followed flight in the world.Nearly 50,000 people — almost all of them likely devoted Roma fans — picked out the Gulfstream G650 flown by Roma’s American president and pilot Dan Friedkin at one point on the Flight Radar 24 site.It’s a measure of how much Lukaku’s season-long loan deal means to Roma and its rabid supporters.Some 5,000 yellow-and-red clad fans were waiting at Rome’s Ciampino airport to welcome Lukaku, Friedkin and Roma general manager Tiago Pinto to the Italian capital on Tuesday.“The welcome I’ve received from this club and its fans has excited me and given me even more motivation to give my all for my new team,” Lukaku said when the deal was finalized Thursday.Not since perhaps Gabriel Batistuta was brought in to help Roma win its last Serie A title in 2001 has a center forward’s arrival been so celebrated for the Giallorossi.“I recently got...
