  • This Day In Sports History (July 19th) – 1996 Summer Olympics

    This Day In Sports History (July 19th) – 1996 Summer Olympics

    It was on this day in 1996 that the opening ceremonies took place for the 26th Summer Olympic Games.  The games took place in Atlanta, Georgia and marked the 100th anniversary of the Summer Olympics. The Olympic torch was lit by Muhammad Ali in a very emotional moment.  Ali was also given a replacement gold [...]

    Let’s Watch The Chicago Bulls Flop Around The Court (Video)

    I enjoy watching the Chicago Bulls play on a regular basis.  With players like Derrick Rose, Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer occupying the floor for them, they always seem to provide some excitement.  Last night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks was no different, as the Bulls erased a 14-point fourth quarter deficit to beat Atlanta [...]

    When the NFL lockout finally comes to an end, Chad Ochocinco will have a difficult decision to make: Should he return to the daily grind of playing football in the NFL, or try his hand at the Professional Bull Riding circuit?

Word [...]

    Maybe Next Year: The 9 Worst Sports Cities in America (To Visit)

    Without the sour, you can’t appreciate the sweet. Or some-such horseshit. Actually, I think we can all agree that our sports appetites would be just fine if these cities would know their role and just shut their mouths for a mad minute, as they’re not hanging banners and frankly, with a couple of exceptions, aren’t [...]

    Chick Uses Taser During NASCAR Fan Fight (Video)

    Mullets, trucker hats, and a chick with a taser.  Sounds like what you would expect to see at your typical NASCAR infield party. Apparently these two redneck families couldn’t settle their difference with words (that can be tough when you only have about five in your vocabulary), so one guy decided to whip out his [...]

    Hawk Flying Last Night For Atlanta…Literally!!!

    Total Pro Sports – Last night during game 2 of the first round series between the Miami Heat and the Atlanta Hawks,  one hawk was flying early on.  It was a real live hawk, none other than the team mascot “Spirit”, present at home games on the arm of his trainer.
