It is with that in mind that I humbly direct your attention towards the ten most important, most weighty storylines that loom on the playoff horizon. The one [...]

Welcome to week two, in which we find out who will be joining Team U.S. coached by Dan Henderson. Right away team U.S. looks foolish in comparison with Team U.K. when Jason Pierce faints during Dana’s initial speech. This wasn’t the result of simple overwhelming excitement; Pierce had just cut down from 180lbs to 169lbs. [...]

With all of the cash the Yankees forked out this offseason, it’s hard to believe that they lost their first game of the season on Monday to the Baltimore Orioles.

Last night was the reason my heart belongs on Tobacco Road. Last night was the type of mastery that demanded I paint my bedroom walls Tar Heel Blue as a child. Last night was why I have read “A Coach’s Life” and “The Carolina Way” over and over as though they contained within them the [...]

As a sports fan, nothing is quite as depressing as when your local team publicly concedes that it has no realistic shot at winning before its season even begin. Even when it is true and meant to cushion fans by hedging their expectations, it is still a repugnant maneuver because it violates the basic decree [...]

Hey, it’s been a while. Get ready to sit down with me for the 9th season of The Ultimate Fighter. The spin this season is based in some good old-fashioned nationalism. I say if it is good enough to start a couple of World Wars, it should be enough to get us all fired up. [...]
