After being held scoreless for nearly five minutes Lute Olsen's Kevin O'Neill's squad regrouped and ...

Another Royal Stunner
Last year's biggest surprise in the Premier League, the Americans Royals of Reading FC, pulled off the surprise of the day with a crushing 3-1 victory over Liverpool. Fernando Torres could have set the tone with an early goal but he was unable to put in an easy attempt against American keeper Marcus...

Plucky Wizards Can't Hang With the Suns
The Washington Wizards have played better than expected since the loss of Gilbert Arenas, but there wasn't much of anything they could do to stop Phoenix. The Suns recorded a flat-out ridiculous 42 assists on their 50 field goals. If I hadn't been there to see it I'm not sure I would have believed i...

Shooting At The Net Yields More Goals? Brilliant!
After a humiliating, unprecedented loss to the Buffalo Sabres, Redstate.org probably thinks the Carolina Hurricanes deserve a do-over. After all, some of the goals Buffalo scored throughout the game were intentional, unfair, and uncalled for. It's the only sensible conclusion after Buffalo's eight —...

Nobody can quite explain why the Hornets franchise has been unable to beat the Dallas Mavericks since 1999. Experts agree one factor might be that in those games, the Hornets were unable to score more points than the Mavericks. Others blame global warming. Others still claim that last night the Horn...
