Most leagues have Jerome Harrison, Cleveland Browns running back, somewhere in the fold. Usually he is on the bench. Only four percent of leagues started him this week. Any owner that saw this stat line probably deuced their panties, ruing a missed chance for some major points: 34 carries 286 yards 3 touchdowns 2 receptions [...]

MVP Hideki Matsui drove in a half dozen runs and the Yankees won Game 6 in the Bronx over the Phils to win their 27th World Series title. However, this still does not justify their universe leading 208 million dollar payroll (with A-Rod sucking up a 15% chunk of it). By our calculations based on [...]

“It’s tough to swallow,” Holliday said. “Obviously, I feel terrible. But I just missed the ball. It hit my stomach. I think I can catch a ball hit right at me.” No Matt, it didn’t hit you in the stomach. It actually hit you in your balls, which makes this even more of a gaffe. [...]
When Bo Jackson struck out (pictured on the right), the 6-foot-1 Jackson entertained the masses by channeling his disappointment into a show of strength — by snapping his bat over his knee like it was a toothpick. …As you can see in the photographic evidence above obtained from the Yankees’ 7-2 playoff victory over the [...]
