During the Miami Heat’s 94-75 Game Three loss to the Indiana Pacers last Thursday, LeBron James recorded 22 points, seven rebounds, three assists and two steals.

Some of you may not like the game of soccer (or football, depending on which part of the world you are from), but if you give the following commercial from Nike titled, “My Time Is Now” a chance, it may be able to change your mind. Sure, there are more than a few flopping wussies [...]
If you asked me whether or not I would fight a nine-year-old female, my answer would be a resounding “No!” On most occasions, that answer would have more to do with the fact that it is just wrong to hit a female, and less to do with the fear of getting beat up by a [...]
It the eyes of most, there appears to be little debate as to who the better soccer player is between Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi.

The Reason: The Oklahoma City Thunder continue to roll through the competition during these playoffs, as they have won each of their first six post-season games.

If you are a strong, determined, athletic young man looking to make a career in boxing, you go to Freddy Roach. If you are a Wall Street nerd who doesn’t have a single ounce of athleticism and enjoys being made fun of by a dude that could probably knock you out five times before you [...]
The New Jersey Devils’ penalty-kill has struggled mightily during the post-season. They have killed only 72.2% of their penalties, giving them the worst penalty-kill among the eight playoff teams that advanced to the second-round of the playoffs. As a result, you’d expect them to do everything in their power to stay out of the box [...]
If you thought Charles Barkley’s showing during the NBA on TNT’s “Shirts Off Contest” was a frightening sight, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

When Cheng Teck Hock, a 52-year-old Singapore taxi driver, saw the stop light in front of him turn green on Saturday night, he did what every driver has been trained to do – proceed through the intersection.
