Until this evening, North Carolina State hadn’t won a basketball game at Duke since 1995.

California Chrome Owner Thanks No One In Bizarre Nine-Minute Horse Of The Year Acceptance Speech
California Chrome co-owner Perry Martin began his acceptance speech for Horse of the Year at last night’s Eclipse Awards with a modest declaration: “Everyone told me I did a wonderful job, so I’d just like to say, ditto.” He then rambled on for nine minutes of complaints and odd stories before being...

Caleb Ewan Is Ready To Be A Star
The first race of the road cycling season, Australia’s Tour Down Under, tends to be an imprecise predictor of future form for climbers and all-rounders.

No Team Has A Ground Game Quite Like The Falcons'
Matt Ryan and Julio Jones are the household names powering the NFL’s highest-scoring and most efficient offense.

Russell Westbrook Has No Time For The Warriors
The season’s second reunion between Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant did not make for a particularly close game, but it was still plenty entertaining.

Just What The Hell Was Going On At The Warriors' Arena Groundbreaking Ceremony?<em></em>
The Golden State Warriors held a groundbreaking ceremony for their new San Francisco arena today, and befitting an ownership group that believes it’s “light-years ahead” of the rest of the NBA, it was an ostentatious display.
