This is why they call it the Ivy League and not the Bermuda/Fescue League. At Virginia we've maintained something called "The Lawn" for about three hundred years with no problem #wahoowa www.nytimes.com/athletic/764...

Joke's on Jack Smith, by the way -- Excel Center is a horrendous place to see a game and the ingress/egress sucks. He SHOULD HAVE come to Atlanta!

SENATOR: I have these text messages that put you in Saskatchewan watching the Roughriders. The very city that you claim to have never been in. You are under arrest for perjury. You are dead meat. WITNESS: (ruffling papers) actually I was seeing the Ottawa Rough Riders.

Knicks, other East beasts highlight NBA teams that could fall short of expectations
Some of these teams may be better set up for playoff success than they are regular-season domination.

Why did Steph Curry, Kawhi Leonard sign two-year deals? Explaining the over-38 rule
These are huge deals, but the four older stars are all doing their teams a favor, too.

this would seemingly not bode well for either Caleb Martin or Marcus Sasser. Mavs would have make a cut to keep Powell on opening day roster.

The Brewers traded their ace for next to nothing, signed a dead guy to play third, had Yelich turn into a pumpkin and Woodruff get hurt ... and they have ONE. HUNDRED. WINS. #brewcrew
