Here's What $78 Worth Of Hot Dogs Looks Like
We wrote a few weeks ago about the Texas Rangers' $26 hot dogs, and the ESPN crew decided to order a few up to the booth during last night's broadcast.

It's just a few days into the baseball season, but we're already reminded that some of the best action takes place in the stands, not on the field.

Gregg Williams Is Essentially The Evil Sensei From <em>The Karate Kid</em>
