200-plus innings. 190 strikeouts. A win-loss record of 18-7 with a 2.73/1.13 ERA/WHIP. By the end of the season (at the current pace), the Tampa Bay Rays may very well have a pitcher with numbers that are good enough not just to lead the team as its ace, but to contend for the AL Cy [...]
Last night, the ping-pong balls bounced exactly the way everyone expected them to for the Philadelphia 76ers. While they had a chance to move up or down during the NBA Draft Lottery, they ended up right where they had the highest probability of being. They will select 11th in the 2013 NBA Draft, which is not the most pleasant spot [...]
USC Trojans wide receiver Marqise Lee won the Biletnikoff Award as the nation’s top receiver in 2012.

The USA will play host to yet another CONCACAF Gold Cup later on this summer from July 7 to the 28 with nothing but winning on their mind. Losses to Mexico in the finals of both 2009 and 2011 are enough fuel to propel them to play a good tournament. This time around, they will call [...]

The Grand Prix of Bahrain featured everything you want in a Formula 1 race. Overtaking was difficult, but exciting and frequent.

Red Bull Racing top dog Dietrich Mateschitz recently stated in an interview that he has told current Red Bull driver Mark Webber that he will be a candidate for a race seat in 2014, adding that Webber will be “always welcome” at RBR.
