Pete Rose isnt talking. And thats a good thing. Let him save the speech for his Hall of Fame induction which seems just around the corner. It seems baseball commissioner Bud Selig is seriously considering lifting Roses lifetime suspension from baseball.

Neither rain, nor snow nor.is that the motto of the U.S. Postal Service or the mantra for Cincinnati Reds fans?

Stupidity has no age yet it may be reserved for youth. Take Michael Phelps for example. A true American hero.

Now its time for Ken Anderson to get his just due his Super Bowl ring.

Welcome to this weeks Cyclones report! As promised, I (hopefully) have an interesting slant regarding our beloved pro hockey team.

The UC Bearcats celebrated their most significant victory in years. The West Virginia students provided the beer shower.

Perhaps only Marty Brennaman himself was surprised when he received the Ford C. Frick Award on July 23, 2000.

Seems like theres no shortage of money at least for those running collegiate athletic departments.Guess again.
