Dan Uggla was traded to the Atlanta Braves on November 17 after spending his entire professional career with the Florida Marlins. Something tells me he likes Atlanta better already. Why? Well, apparently the Braves are preparing to back a dump truck full of money up to Uggla's doorstep.
The 30-year-old Uggla ...

It seems like Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh is on every NFL team's list of potential head coaching candidates. While we've largely ignored a lot of the speculation regarding Harbaugh, we do feel that this would be the best time for him to move on from Stanford, as his stock ...

Let's face it, when you've got a super-talented roster and you continue to lose the way the Houston Texans have, there is only one spot to place the blame. Head coach Gary Kubiak has had five seasons to draft, develop and mold his players, and when you still lose games ...

Cliff Lee signing with Philadelphia gives the Phillies arguably one of the greatest rotations in baseball history. H20, or Roy Halladay, Cole Hamels and Roy Oswalt, just added baseball's most dominant lefty. Not bad work.

It has been known for a while that the Kansas City Royals are shopping ace Zack Greinke around, but the price has always been considered a tad high. That makes sense, since the 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner is the only legitimate trade chip the Royals possess and they ...

Hasheem Thabeet, the No. 2 pick in the 2009 NBA Draft has been nothing short of a total disappointment thus far. Last year he became the highest drafted player to ever be sent to the D-League, and this year he's averaged a whopping 1.2 points and 1.3 rebounds in just ...
