Alex Gordon Is The Best Advertisement For Wearing A Cup
For a fan, extra-inning games are only fun when your team wins. I stayed up past midnight for that? Well, how do you think Alex Gordon feels?

Albert Pujols Finally Hits Home Run, Is The Nicest Human Being In The World
It was bound to happen and it could not have happened to a better player human being.

Cricketer Takes 86 MPH Ball To The Crotch, Cracking His Cup
Kane Williamson was a hero on the fifth day of New Zealand's test against South Africa, and not just because he recorded a century and salvaged a draw after entering the afternoon facing down an enormous deficit.

Peter Crouch Just Scored The Goal Of The Year In English Soccer
Peter Crouch's volley would be astounding in any context, but that it put Stoke up 1-0 on Manchester City makes it that much more a golazo. If Rooney's bicycle goal last season was its top score, Crouch's today is almost certainly that of the '11-'12 campaign. [Fox Soccer]...
Terrell Owens's First Indoor Football League Catch Was For A Touchdown
T.O. made his mostly ignored debut in the Indoor Football League tonight, and while he was mostly invisible in the first quarter, his grab early in the second period put his Allen (Tex.) Wranglers up by a touchdown on Wichita. This is happening, folks. [Time Warner Cable]...
