Wait - I thought Fenway Sports Group owned Liverpool?

Making a good play in sports is a transcendent feeling - your mind just sort of turns off. I say this having done it on the very lowest levels of athletic contests. No wonder he was crying on the sidelines - must be somewhat overwhelming to do it in this situation.

Good advice for snow, but ice is a different story. There are times when certain routes are not advisable in icy conditions. I remember one time in the Philadelphia suburbs after a small ice storm I came up to the top of the hill near the Wissahickon river. Below me was a steep hill with a right hand turn at the…

I truly appreciate your reply. I had meant to say that concussions are an issue in rugby as well, but the rest I wrote with apparently outdated information. A few years back, I had wondered whether rugby players had lower concussion rates - I read a few journal articles that indicated that the rates were high and that…

'Orange Pride', it turns out, was John Boehner's second choice for an autobiography title.

Well, I would agree but there is that recent story about RVP pouting because his misses playing for Sir Alex. It's from anonymous sources of course, but it is not entirely impossible to believe...
