Stan Hansen, Wrestling's Violent Rambling Man, Has A Home In The Hall Of Fame
Stan Hansen hit harder than any wrestler, and did his ultraviolent thing first in the states, and then in Japan. His WWE Hall of Fame induction is richly deserved.
Novak Djokovic, Destroyer
If anyone was going to end Rafael Nadal's decade-spanning dominance at Roland Garros, that destroyer would be Novak Djokovic. Ending things is just what he does.
The Europa League, an Appreciation
The Europa League is not the Champions League, and that's enough to make it a punchline. But European soccer's middle class tournament is a lot more than that.
Mark Buehrle Is Sneaking Into the Hall of Fame
Mark Buehrle works quicker and throws slower than just about anyone else in baseball. He's done it for 15 years, and well enough to have a Hall of Fame case. Enjoy it.
Brock Lesnar Is Still the Greatest
Brock Lesnar got his title stolen from him at WrestleMania, but he still reigns, surly and supreme, as both the best and realest pro wrestler on Earth.
