The 14th-ranked Gators won, 61-52. Rightly concerned reader Aaron emailed the photo to us. This young...
Someone Just Tried To Disrupt The Best In Show Judging At Madison Square Garden
We have practically no information about this, other than that a woman with a sign tried to rush the stage as Best In Show was about to be announced at the Westminster Kennel Club show at Madison Square Garden.

Nationals "Take Back The Park" From Phillies Fans, Give It Right Back To Them
Every time the Phillies visit Nationals Park, it feels like a home game for them. The stands are filled with fans who made the two-hour drive south to cheer for the Phillies, and it’s disheartening for Nats fans to be outnumbered in their own stadium.
