The Charlotte NBA Team Might Rather Be The Hornets Again
During its short 25 years in the NBA, the Hornets moniker has proven to be the league's Johnny Cash — it's been everywhere, man.

Connnnnnnn! <em>Star Trek Into Darkness</em>, Reviewed.
1. I've never gotten the sense that J.J. Abrams really cares all that much about the Star Trek franchise.

Your Roger Clemens Frosted Tips Update
They are frosty. Very, very frosty. Also frosty for Clemens? The radar gun. The rocket got up to 88 miles per hour during his 3 1/3 innings. I should say, 3 1/3 shutout innings. He struck out two and allowed just one hit. Stay hot, 22! [NY Daily News]...
Would You Like To Donate Money To A $50,000 Sarah Phillips Documentary? If So, You Are Too Late
A few days ago, someone wanted to raise $50,000 for a Sarah Phillips documentary.

But this proposed documentary didn't set out to wrestle broader themes like creepy scams...
Tony Romo's Baby Is Sponsored By Starter

Here Are A Bunch Of Photos Of A Fiery NHRA Crash
Photographer Mark Rebilas sent over these bad-ass shots of NHRA Pro Mod driver Roger Burgess totally wrecking his '67 Firebird ride at 220 mph after crossing the Bristol Dragway finish line.
