Apparently, Stephen Curry knew he was going to become Stephen Curry a long time before anybody else. At no more than 6 or 7-years-old, Steph starred in a Burger King Commercial along with his dad, Dell Curry. The long-time sharp shooting veteran of the league--Dell, Steph still had a few years to go ro reach his NBA MVP status--asked his son what he wanted to be when he grew up. Steph, confidently, without a moment of hesitation, as if what he was telling you was pre-ordained in the history books as fact, replied, "A basketball player." Read More »

Alabama will have one decided advantage over Clemson heading in to the College Football Playoff National Championship Game on Jan. 11: they get more time to practice. It's not their fault, though (we'll explore more of that later), it's just how it worked out. Read More »
A Sunday in the NFL epitomized by a missed extra point attempt and a helmet ricocheting into your face by your own doing is known as a bad Sunday. This, unfortunately, was how Dan Carpenter's Sunday was going. Read More »
Tom Brady is very particular in the way he conducts his business. For example, he prefers muscular flexibility as opposed to the traditional strength training, and calls just about every human being he encounters, "babe." That particular-ness crosses over to Brady's food life, too. Recently, Allen Campbell, Brady's personal chef, spoke to boston.com and described what the star quarterback for the New England Patriots can, and can not eat. Come to find out, the can not section is significantly longer. Read More »
Real Madrid has done what many thought they would, just perhaps a little sooner than expected. On Monday, they fired one of Europe's most experienced coaches in Rafael Benitez, who had spent only seven months of a 3-year contract on the job, and replaced him with a man that has never coached in any of Europe's top leagues: Zinedine Zidane.

For some, 2015 was a good year (like Adele, for example). For others, it was a year to forget; it's just life. Unfortunately, for Matt Barnes, it was the latter of the two. The Memphis Grizzlies swingman endured a roller-coaster year that saw him traded, involved in his fair share of lady issues, and caught up in a feud with a former teammate and current coach in the NBA. What's a guy to do in that situation when the end of December rolls around? Take to Instagram, of course. Read More »

So it surprising to think that the city doesn't have an NFL team, considering football's popularity in the country. However, that may all soon change. On Monday night, the St. Louis Rams, San Diego Chargers and Oakland Raiders all filed for applications to relocate to Los Angeles. Read More »

The 69-year-old was in charge for 12 years, a period of time that saw the franchise win two Super Bowl titles. Read More »
The New York Jets, a name synonymous with recent NFL misfortune. They've become something of a punch line for fans and pundits alike over the past half decade or so, often having their season's fate decided by mid November. But then, this year, they played their way to a 10-5 record, with just the injury depleted Buffalo Bills standing in their way of the playoffs. Things looked promising. A win and they were in. Even with a loss they still had a shot. However, this is the Jets we're talking about. They not only lost, but missed out on the playoffs altogether. Read More »
Tim Duncan, Forward for the San Antonio Spurs, didn't score a point in Saturday night's game against the Houston Rockets. Which marked the first time in his 19 year NBA career that such a thing has happened (or hasn't happened, depending on how you look at it). Read More »
Over the weekend, TCU Horned Frogs football team overcame a 31-0 halftime deficit against the Oregon Ducks in the Alamo Bowl to win 47-41, effectively tying the largest comeback in bowl history. Not to mention the largest comeback of the 2015 season. Read More »
