If my math is correct, Maria Sharapova would have been 17 years old when Trump made that comment. Per Wikipedia, Sharapova was born 4/19/1987.

“‘I can’t be both the best mother and the best tennis player in the world’—a concern that, frankly, is one only Williams could have.”

The photo above is evidence that Mitch Albom was one of the first children to obtain Mr. Wallace’s autograph.

The Mountain West Conference faces the same issue. With the exception of 2004-06, UNLV has hosted every men’s basketball tournament since the conference’s first tournament in 2000. As host, UNLV benefits from having home court advantage—much to the chagrin of most league coaches. Coaches have complained, but Vegas is…

I, too, was of the understanding that Miami is the 5th major, not Indian Wells.

“So yes, maybe McNair could have become an All-World dynamo if he had simply had better coaching. Maybe he would have fulfilled the potential he showed at McNeese State and become a lethal quarterback piling up Madden stats in every NFL game.”

Brilliant. Thank you for this. I like the new Colbert, but I miss the old Colbert.

I have been an Isiah Thomas fan since I was ten years old. He was and always will be my favorite basketball player. I have had to employ the strategy of separating the person from the athlete several times as an adult. Even with all of his failures as an adult, I still get giddy when I watch Bad Boys highlights, and…

That is awful.

Also, I’m not an ADA expert, but I’m going to guess that you have to show you meet the definition of a qualified individual with a disability before you can make good faith allegations that you were the victim of discrimination as a result of your…

What made it such an amazing shot (to me, at least) was how far back Kvitova was when she went for the drop shot. It was one of the best shots I’ve seen, especially given that it was the third set in a Grand Slam quarterfinal.

Thanks for finding the link.

Does anyone else recall the Ohio State SID who lost his job after a late 1990s football media guide stated that alumnus Richard Lewis was an alcoholic in the famous alumni section? I remember speaking with an Ohio State intern after it happened, and she said it was devastating for the man (who was fired), his family…

It’s clear that this article was not written by someone who works in sports journalism. In fact, it reads like it was written by someone who has not read any sports journalism.

“The series, which featured its fair share of rivalry violence for a regular season non-conference game . . . .”

In 2002, Maryland won the national championship as a member of the ACC. What is relevant is the conference affiliation at the time of the title, not the current conference affiliation. Therefore, the article is correct on that point.
