Alabama Fan Dies, Will Miss First Crimson Tide Game Since 1945
Dick Coffee's streak would have been longer, but he put off college to serve in WWII. Then, in 1946, the Alabama freshman attended the season opener against Furman.

Miami Heat Nation Encompasses More Than Brats, Ghouls, And Idiots
When the Miami Heat won its only LeBronless title, in 2006, I was living outside Fort Lauderdale. My building fees included basic cable, which was enough to get just about every Heat game and virtually nothing else worth watching.

David Beckham Makes Appearance In Shanghai, Causes Stampede
This video plays out like a goddamn horror movie. You spend the first two minutes knowing that shit is about to get really bad, but you still can't force yourself to look away. And then, just when you think that maybe all that buildup won't actually lead to much: chaos!...
In Defense Of Leaving Early
I always hated leaving Whalers games early. Maybe if they were down three goals I could be coaxed out of my seat when the PA announcer said, "Oooooooone minute left in the period." But it would take all of my father's cajoling to get me to leave the Hartford Civic Center before the crush of 10,000...

Stefani's ace on 17 was the first ever at a U.S. Open at Merion and the 43rd in U.S. Open history. What sets it apart from most is that Stefani flew his tee shot completely over the green, landed the ball in the rough and then watched it trickle down into the hole. ...
