Roger Federer vs Rafael Nadal: Well, this is the semifinal that everyone wanted to see. Even the fans that hate Federer or Nadal (or both) can’t help but watch them play each other. This rivalry basically defined tennis in the second half of the last decade. And it was usually with these two at the [...]

Australian Open Women’s Semifinals Preview
Kim Clijsters vs Victoria Azarenka: In theory, this should be a great semifinal match. Both players have been hitting big and accurate all tournament and have done a great job of just hitting their opponents off the court. Each of them beat a very good retriever pretty impressively in their respective quarterfinal matches. Azarenka took [...]
The Prince of Detroit
Tim Brown, of Yahoo! Sports, is reporting that Prince Fielder is set to sign a nine year deal with the Detroit Tigers. Fielder will receive $214 million to be the highest paid designated hitter in the league. That, or Miguel Cabrera will be the highest paid DH in the league. Either way, the Tigers now [...]
Settle It Down, Internet
Here’s the problem with the instant information era: faceless drones behind their iPhone screens and Mac Books become the World’s Strongest Man. The empowerment of cowards who sit behind false aliases through self created avatars believe the blogosphere, Twitter, and Facebook are their provided soapbox. Faceless voices who believe every insignificant thought that crosses through [...]

Terrell Suggs the latest person to get Skip’ed
So, by now we all have heard about Terrell Suggs of the Baltimore Ravens blowing up at ESPN’s Skip Bayless, calling him a d-bag during an interview in which Skip Bayless was being a giant d-bag. I’m sure many of you have your own opinion on the situation, probably applauding T-Sizzle for taking a stand [...]
Australian Open Quarterfinals Preview
Roger Federer vs Juan Martin Del Potro: It’s the rematch we’ve been waiting over two years for. This pair hasn’t met each other in a Slam since that classic 2009 US Open final, where Del Potro came back to beat Federer. It was really the match that showed people Delpo’s extreme potential and Federer’s vulnerability [...]
Australian Open Women’s Quarterfinals Preview
Caroline Wozniacki vs Kim Clijsters: Can you say blockbuster quarterfinal? It’s the World #1 against the defending champion. Clijsters has won 4 Slams, 3 of them since coming out of retirement and all of them on hard courts. Wozniacki has been much-maligned because she has been World #1 for well over a year yet never [...]
NFC Title Game Keys
Whats the good word TSHQ nation? It’s the NFC Championship Game and its K.M’s adopted team, the 49ers against New York’s best team, the Giants. Coley and I will look at this game because SPOILER ALERT: We’re monster homers and would have given the most biased, prejudicial, disrespectful AFC championship game preview on the internet [...]
