It's just a few days into the baseball season, but we're already reminded that some of the best action takes place in the stands, not on the field.

How The Masters Theme Song Came To Be: An Interview With The Third Cousin Of Kenny Loggins
On the 14th hole at Augusta, with the breeze blowing through the trees, musician Dave Loggins had his inspiration. It was April 1981, his first trip to the Masters.

Warren Sapp Is Broke
TMZ has the exclusive on QB-Killa's bankruptcy, and it's grisly. Sapp owes $6.7 million to his creditors—nearly a million of that to the IRS—and only has $6.45 million on hand. Among that $6.45 million are some distinctly Sapp-y assets:...

Your '90s High School Movie Cast Power Rankings
American Reunion comes out today, and I'll confess to liking it a bit more than Grierson does. I agree that these characters aren't close to interesting enough to justify four movies, but I can't help but admire the simply, ingenious premise: Just turn it into a high school reunion. It's a bit baffl...

"Motherfuckin' Shit! Take Your Ass Home!" Or, Why The Baltimore Orioles Matter
The best night of the 2011 baseball season in Baltimore was the final one. For once, for the first time in years, the whole country was watching. And what it saw was a thing of joy.

The Wonderlic Test Proves The NFL Is Stupid
Here is an indisputable fact, one of the very few that exist surrounding the mysterious and dreaded Wonderlic Test: the Wonderlic is not meant for football.

Of All The Signs Baseball Season Has Arrived, This Is The Best Damn One
Vin Scully launched his 63rd season behind the mic for the Dodgers yesterday, calling Los Angeles' 5-3 win over the Padres and looking damn good while doing it.
