I love wearing my throwback jersey’s, especially those from the Negro baseball leagues. These jerseys symbolize so many things: pain, suffering, success, fun.

Last week, we saw some big losers. The Mets were bumped from the play-offs on the last day of the baseball season, easily giving them one of the biggest collapses in sports history.

After accidentally feeling a lump in my left breast back in December 2002, it took almost five months to be diagnosed with breast cancer because everyone, including me, thought that I was too young.

1pm games: Atlanta Falcons (1-3) def. Houston Texans (2-2) Location: Georgia Dome, Atlanta, GA Score: 26-16 Okay, maybe I spoke too soon last week when I said the Falcons need to switch their starting QBs. Now that I think about, I didn’t, Joey Harrington still stinks. But he had a hell of a […]
