I watch, play, comment on, and write about soccer and basketball. I have a couple of favorite teams in the NBA (Toronto and Dallas) though if I had to choose one, it would be the Raptors.

an undeserved penalty shot.The play itself was clearly not a
penalty. If the ball touched anything, it touched Kevin McKenna's…

Apparently 50,000 people showed up to welcome him and his new number 8
jersey which, I assume, instantaneously became the best selling jersey
in Spain. And, as if TFC wasn't happy enough about getting Real Madrid,

In other news, Manchester United have apparently completed the signing of Luis Antonio Valencia for 16 million pounds.
I'm still not sure how I feel about this, especially…
