Former UFC Champ Dominick Cruz Returns From Oblivion, Waxes Opponent
Before last night, Dominick Cruz, the UFC's one-time 135-lb. champion, hadn't fought in nearly three years due to an awful run of injuries.

The Milwaukee Brewers spent 150 days in first place this season, but they did not make the playoffs: the team was officially eliminated after yesterday's 5-3 loss to the Reds.

Michigan Pretends It Isn't Desperate To Give Away Tickets
I won't make fun of Michigan football for practically giving away tickets to keep its 100,000-plus attendance streak alive.

Is This Celebrating Falcons Fan Grabbing Her Friend's Dick?

James Dolan went on Good Day New York this morning to talk about his corny-ass blues band and play multiple(!) songs in studio.
