One Week Until RFK Field Trip

Teddy Dupay, Keeping Himself Busy
Remember Teddy Dupay? The scrappy, easily hateable Florida guard who left for the NBA early because of a gambling probe and ultimately went undrafted? He bounced around some overseas leagues and then pretty much left basketball for good at the age of 25....

The men's NCAA basketball tournament is the one major postseason event that seems perfect. It's not possible for it to fail. It will be exciting. There will not be controversy about the champion. It is the single greatest gambling event that has ever existed. And there are coaches out there who want...

If Australia earns a tie or a win, the Socceroos will advance to the next round; a win for Croatia does the same for them, barring something crazy from Japan against Brazil. It's rare that this round of games end up with two teams pla...
Well, That Was Miserable

Reading through the comments from the United States-Ghana live blog — the United States lost, by the way, if you didn't hear — pretty much prepared us for the postgame comments of ESPN analyst Eric Wynalda (whom we've actually enjoyed thus far): "Bruce Arena screwed up this World Cup f...
