Sorry Sox … and Straight Talk Express

2
It was a good run, Red Sox ... but now it's up to the Phillies to take the devil out of those Rays, I guess.  A rested Philadelphia team meets the Rays in Florida for game 1 on Wednesday night.  Here's hoping for either a good, exciting, long Series or (my personal favorite) a four [...] Click to continue reading...

Sports Illustrated has come out with a more in-depth article than I've seen to date on Hope Solo, Briana Scurry, and the USWNT's World Cup Loss to Brazil.
