Several reports surfaced on Sunday that the Utah Jazz are desperate to trade Carlos Boozer so they will have the salary room to re-sign restricted free agent Paul Millsap. Millsap recently signed a four-year, $32 million offer sheet from the Portland Trailblazers, and the Jazz have less than a week ...

It's well documented that I hate baseball. That's mainly because my boyhood favorite team - the San Diego Padres - are freaking awful. And they have been for the better part of 40 years. Last night they did something that made me realize that, yes, I am completely justified in ...

We have some lovely loyal readers and I love any opportunity to churn out content to keep them entertained. So as I sat down to do that this morning I scoured the internets for something, anything of merit to write about. Here's the only things I came up with: The ...

Anyone remember during the 2006 World Cup in Germany how there were whispers that South Africa might not be ready to host its own World Cup by 2010? Concerns about construction delays, the political mess the country is in and an overall lack of security had most of the soccer ...

I'm sure with Michael Jackson's recent passing you've probably heard on average four MJ songs an hour. So I'm sure you've heard the 1991 hit "Black or White." In it, a chromatically confused Jackson belts, “It don’t matter if you’re black or white.”

I've been watching Season 3 of The Sopranos on On Demand, and I've been inspired. Meadow Soprano/Jamie Lynn Sigler is still very hot not-so-forbidden fruit (despite the Turtle fiasco) even years after the show is over. And by the way, season three of The Sopranos is by far the best ...

US defender Oguchi Onyewu has been signed by AC Milan. I had to read that sentence a few times even after I typed it. Huh, guess that really did happen. He'll be only the second American to ever play in Serie A (the other was Alexi Lalas, also a defender).

The American and National League 2009 All-Stars were announced this weekend. And among the 66 (yup, they upped the rosters to 33 apiece), a third of the players are first-time All-Stars.
Now just because you've made the All-Star team doesn't mean you've made it. And it definitely doesn't mean you've earned ...
