The umpire kept the $70-million investment in the game and avoided getting him suspended. He should be getting a thank-you card from the Padres.

You could, theoretically get a media time out with 9:55 to go, but it would be dumb.

Seconded by Washington State.

There’s always been a version of the Blazers logo with the city and team name on it, but I don’t think they use it much.

Well, there was this, too.

38.4 (iv) covers it as well.

Stick to sprouts, Burneko!

Another thing I would say is that if there is some genius VC billionaire, start a small pro basketball league!

This is the first time that phrase has been used in relation to hockey.

They were afraid to show their O-face in Toronto?

“Being really Goop” was a challenge for Chris Martin, too.

Now that the Jets are missing from the NHL playoffs, does that mean CNN is going to provide 24-hour coverage?
