Farewell And Adieu To You Fair Spanish Ladies
Just in case David Beckham has any ideas about sticking around in Europe, Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes were on hand to make sure that he gets on that plane for LA.

Surely, President Bush's Favorite Day Of The Year
Occasionally, when President Bush meets a sports team that has won a title, it means something.

They Laugh At Us Because They Fear Us
American soccer is widely mocked around the world, and I had always assumed it was because we weren't very good at it. Not the case, according to this Steven Wells blog entry at Guardian Unlimited. He says the Brits mock us because they fear that we'll eventually beat their limey asses....

We're Apparently Going To The Wrong Bars
You might have heard about Jeff Adams, the world-class wheelchair athlete who claimed a woman placed cocaine in his mouth, and that's why he later failed a drug test.

Even If You Wanted To Watch The NHL, You Couldn't
If you were wanting to watch the NHL Awards on Versus last night — and you were, of course — you probably noticed that they weren't on at the time they were supposed to be.
