NASSAU, The Bahamas — Most people come back from Las Vegas with a hangover. Tiger Woods did, too, but it wasn't from too much partying. Looking worn and a step slow from too much golf and a persistent cough, he sleepwalked his way through a one-over 73—next to last on a day when breezy Albany […]

Basketball fans have long known Charles Barkley is a tough critic. Heck, golf fans found that out last week when he said "The Match" between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson was "crappy golf." But he couldn't possibly find a way to rip someone after a 51-point performance, right? Wrong. RELATED: Did Charles Barkley cure his […]

Ernie Els shot a Thursday 69 in the Afrasia Bank Mauritius Open, but said he didn't feel particularly comfortable on the Four Seasons Anahita Golf Course.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are scary good. Outside of the Buffalo Sabres, a team currently on a 10-game winning streak, there isn't a hotter team in the NHL.

Read MoreQUIZ: Can you tell these fake college football bowl games from their real-life counterparts?
The craziest thing about college football isn't the CFP. It's not the parade of batshit be-mulleted coaches nor their scroll-like recruiting violation rap sheets.

There is retiring on the job, and then there is Mike Francesa, who is spending retirement on the job. Francesa and facts were never simpatico even in his heyday, but the New York radio host has gone from skirting the truth to giving it a coldblooded middle finger in his return to radio.
