When Joba Chamberlain was called up from Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre last year to pitch for the New York Yankees, he took the baseball world by storm. A pitcher in his early twenties who could make hitters look foolish with 100 MPH fastballs and then freeze them with wicked sliders was surely a diamond [...]

So, baseball is around the corner, as we all know. We’ve got our fantasy baseball teams lined up and we’re wearing our team colors to work, school, etc. (I’m not, but I know some die-hard baseball fans who will).
Just like at the beginning of every season, we all make predictions. A-Rod will hit [...]

Every day in the sports world, we are presented with fascinating stories about who got traded, who called out their coach, who is in the running for an award, and why two players don’t get along. This NFL season, we have been faced with Terrell Owens sagas, Giants players ripping on each other [...]

There might not be another rivalry in sports outside of the Red Sox-Yankees that is as intense as the Colts-Patriots rivalry. Every year, the Colts and Patriots play each other in either the regular season or the playoffs, and every year the game is hard fought.
The Colts head to New England a perfect [...]

The Indianapolis Colts. The Cincinnati Bengals. The Pittsburgh Steelers. These were just some of the teams picked to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl this year. All three picks make sense; every one of those teams went to the playoffs last year, with the Steelers winning it all.
Another team added in the [...]

There are some rules in the current game of baseball that are etched in stone. For every homerun hit, you travel around four bases. Four balls equals a walk, three strikes equals an out, and three outs means that the other team must come up to bat. There are nine innings in a [...]
