I’ve been watching Adam “PacMan” Jones’ act this week. He is the Cincinnati Bengals defensive back, who was hit with a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty as the Bengals fell apart and gave away their first round NFL playoff game last week against the Steelers.  His teammate, Vontaze Burfict, got called for knocking the Steelers’ Antonio…MORE

Regular season story lines in sports not named the National Football League don’t really catch on with a lot of people. However the defending NBA champions are doing something very noteworthy. After a 131-123 win at Indiana the Golden State Warriors are 23-0. The 1972 Lakers won 33 in a row as they hold the…MORE
