I am a firm believer that the rest of the world does not really want soccer to catch on in the US. It's simple really...could you imagine if some of these world class athletes that play the big money sports in America had pushed themselves towards soccer instead of football or basketball. Could you imagine an American soccer team with athletes like Mike Vick, LaDanian Tomlinson, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, Vince Young, Reggie Bush and the like? How do you defend a header against a ...

I should like soccer. I played it. I enjoy playing it. I think I have a fairly sophisticated appreciation of the game -- at least by the standard of US fans. But I just couldn't get more than mildly interested in the EuroCup, even down to the final game. My son encapsulated perfectly why soccer isn't more popular as a spectator sport. After intently watching the NFL playoffs, NBA finals, start of the MLB season, hell, even the NHL finals and US Open, his question for me in about the 73rd m...

The problem with Beasley is fit. Most NBA teams either need a solid point guard who can direct the offense, or a big man who can dominate the boards and get gravy baskets. Beasley is neither. He's a talent, no doubt. But if I were the Heat I'd trade down. They could probably get a Shaq replacement big man and a Wade complement point guard for that #2 spot....

You try to force your son to root for the Pack because you've been a Favre devotee since you were 10?
There is no surer way to guarantee he takes up synchronized swimming, starts wearing overall shorts and prefers to shoot free throws under-handed.
Yin and yang. Push and pull. Act and react.
Don't let him anywhere near the Cheesehead no matter how much he asks. That's Daddy's gear. Next thing you know he'll be taking you to Lambeau....

Before we address the real issue, I’m quite concerned about whether a marriage can remain intact if a spouse behaves so recklessly. If my wife were to suggest for a moment that my son bear, say, a Pats jersey, I’d be on the phone to the most experienced divorce lawyer in the land.
Good habits begin early... and so do bad habits! We teach our children how to speak properly, how to eat at the table, and to respect their elders. We must also teach them, at a very young age, the importance of ...

Yeah, I know, its still only May, but I saw JaMarcus Russell on the front page of the Sporting Green last week, so it can't be totally out of line to talk some football.
My topic today-- who not to pick first in fantasy football drafts this summer.
Tom Brady -- Don't do it. You don't get to count his 2007 numbers. Sure Brady will come back with a vengeance from his embarrassing performance in the Super Bowl, but expect more like 32-35 TDs and 3800 yards without Moss to stretch the field-...
