It has only been for just two years,
but there seems to be a developing annual trend
of winning cities. And we’re not just talking about one sport. This year is a no-brainer, as Pittsburgh would definitely claim a Cities of Champions award if there was one. The Penguins won the ...

Maybe loyalty doesn’t apply anymore in this NHL,
or at least it doesn’t seem to for Dany

If the Stanley Cup finals put anything to
rest, besides a new NHL champion, it’s that Sidney

There isn’t another position in sports that compares
to being a quarterback. You touch the ball on
every single play. You have to make decisions in an instant. You have to adjust to what the defense presents you to get out of bad situations. The game is basically all in your hands. ...

The odds are definitely against Pittsburgh. One quick
glance and it’s easy to point out all the

of Vancouver Canucks’ defensemen Luc Bourdon, but he will

Eleven days ago, the Toronto Blue Jays were
on a roll, 13 games above .500, 3.5 games
up on the second-place Boston Red Sox and coming off a four-game sweep on the Chicago White Sox. But that all changed when they arrived at Fenway Park on Tuesday, May 19 for the start of a nine-game road ...

It seems every year in Major League Baseball,
there is one team that comes completely out of
