Mario Balotelli Does Good Thing On Soccer Field
Once—and not even that long ago, if you'd believe—it was widely thought that Mario Balotelli was a good or great soccer player who, if nothing else, could be relied on to score some goals, sometimes.

Hey, Get A Load Of This Evil Doctor
The Washington Post has a profile today of Dr. Jack Wolfson, an Arizona cardiologist and holistic medicine, uh, doer or whatever, who's made something of a name for himself by providing a flimsy, fraudulent rime of expertish cover to the reprehensible, morally criminal anti-vaccination crowd in the ...

Arizona Coyotes defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson was only trying to dump the puck, but the unintended accuracy gave him his 13th goal of the season as the "shot" got past Maple Leafs goalie Jonathan Bernier. Toronto is at the point where it can't even lose a lead on an even-strength goal....
Lou Merloni Resists Attacking Protestors Who Say Black Lives Matter
Former Red Sox infielder and current WEEI yakker Lou Merloni is perhaps best known in Boston for being from Framingham and for being Nomar's friend.

How Liverpool's New Formation Saved A Disastrous Season
It's taken about, oh, half a season for Liverpool to look anything like the free-flowing, attacking side that should've won the Premier League last season, but if Monday's 4-1 dismantling of Swansea is anything to go by, they might've finally gotten back to their best....
