This year’s ESPYS, hosted by Lance Armstrong, will be on July 16. They should have a category for Best All-Rounder, for which England footballer Peter Crouch would get my vote. The man’s a sporting wonder!
32 categories are being contested in the 2006 ESPYS. Click here to vote. Voting ends at midnight (ET), July 9.
And they’re at it again. The first fuzzy yellow ball has been tossed and Wimbledon 2006 kicks off today.

I have never understood why some guys (typically of the Beng variety) keep their pinky nails long. I’m not talking maybe-time-to-cut-your-nails long, but more like a good half inch or so kinda long.

YeeaaaaAAAHHHHH!!! Rafael Nadal has chalked his first win against Lleyton Hewitt! Raced home after flamenco class and caught the match just as they started the fourth set. Lleyton did execute some great shots, but Rafa showed him how it’s really done and continues his reign as the King of Clay with 57 consecutive wins on [...]
When Rafael Nadal beat Roger Federer at the Masters Series Roma last year and and claimed his 16th career title, he also equalled the long-standing record of 53 straight wins on clay, held by Guillermo Vilas. Rafa has now bettered that, with his win over Robin Soderling at Roland Garros last Monday. After the match, [...]
