2011 MLB Regular Season Standings - Major League Baseball - ESPN

2011 MLB Regular Season Standings - Major League Baseball - ESPN

If you told me the Cleveland Indians would be 16-8 at this point in the season with one of the best records in baseball, I'd have laughed at you.

I'm cautiously optimistic this is for real, since it's due to solid pitching and defense....but part of me feels like it's just a matter of time till the wheels come off.

Great story about being a bigger man, understanding your role in this world, and forgiveness.

Big fan of Chris Paul as both an athlete and a human being.

Madden bruiser: Peyton Hillis voted onto game's cover - ESPN

Madden bruiser: Peyton Hillis voted onto game's cover - ESPN

Nice! This is who I wanted on the cover. Nothing fancy about his game, just a bruiser who has got some hops.

Watch some highlights and you'll be shocked at the air this guy can get. Doesn't hurt that it's an Ohio team either!

Great job voters!

Bill Nye Boo'd In Texas For Saying The Moon Reflects The Sun - Think Atheist

Totally ridiculous. It's okay to be religious. It's okay to not be religious. I don't care. It is not, however, okay to be ignorant.
