Pacman won the fight.

Ellipses.

Only, the judges gave the belt to a guy so battered, he rolled out of the arena in a wheelchair.

Reminds me of the coolest headline in sports history: Harvard beats Yale 29-29.

As with that 1968 Crimson rush to a tie, Manny Pacquiao was so impressive last Saturday night, only one result was possible: He won.

Ellipses.

After Pacman pounded Tim Bradley through 12 rounds, the decision came in:

Judge 1 voted for Pacquiao. Duh.

Judge 2 voted for Bradley. OK, a numbnuts.

Judge 3 voted for Bradley.

Who maintains the color for the new year?

Albert Pujols.

The superstud turned from Redbird to Halo at the drop of a $25 million annual check.

So now Sir Albert plays first base for
Los Angeles. Baseball mania is back in the Land of Disney. Ten years
after the Angels won their only world title, they're ready to ride
Pujols to the peak again.

The upside? Homers into the rocks. Winning. Hysteria. Locked in to the key to it…
