Washington Warriors?

Interesting that Marquette changed their name FROM the Warriors in 1995 to be more PC. I guess compared to Redskin, Warrior is OK with the PC crowd. Everything is relative. Maybe Snyder didn't like the sound of the Washington Golden Eagles.

Big upsets, indeed.

Seeing how unpredictable this match play format can be makes me appreciate how amazing Tiger's three consecutive US Amateur championships is.

The Sportspages Hall of Fame

I liked all the ones on the list I have read: Ball Four, Good Walk Spoiled, Into Thin Air, and Friday Night Lights. I know that horse racing fans are hard to find these days, but I really enjoyed Seabiscut: An American Legend. When I finished, I started counting the days until Arlington Park starts racing.

You can't include these records with the MLB records.
