English Soccer Is Dead, And It Deserves To Be
World Cup qualifying runs this week, and a lot of what's going on involves glorified exhibition play.

How Those Painfully Awkward Local Commercials With Athletes Are Made
You've probably seen a local commercial with one of your area's athletes, and it was most likely awful and unnatural. For me, nothing will beat Dustin Pedroia's cringe-worthy Sullivan Tire ad.
