Tom Freaking Brady: G.O.A.T.'s and Ghosts
When you have won as much as Tom Brady has, it seems as though "winning" in itself isn't that appealing anymore. Well, that's wrong, because Tom is just as motivated as ever, and winning again this weekend seems to be just as imperative as any other. How though? How can he be after all these years of winning, and winning big? Why though? Why when he has five, and I repeat five of those things, at home already. I'll tell you why and how. Champions, and especially Legends, create things to motivate them, even when they aren't really there. It's a ghost... ghost... ghost.

The 10 Best Sleeve Shin Guards
Excluding a roundhouse kick to the groin, I'm not sure anything hurts more than a soccer cleat to the shin. After playing soccer for many years, I'm proud (or, not proud, not really sure) to say that I've sustained plenty of bumps and bruises on my dang shins. Retroactively speaking, I probably should have gotten some higher quality shin guards, or at the very least, shin guards that didn't constantly fall down my legs.

The Richest Team in History
They went from punishing teams to the point where they were seen as dirty to losing so badly that the oft-used cliche: «The Laughing Stock Of The League» was theirs from appx 2005 — present. In fact, during the past several years there was a little talk that their performance had gotten so bad that the team wouldn’t be able to support itself and would have to relocate and start over again.

Airplane Mode! Why Derrick Jones Jr and the Miami Heat Are an Awesome Fit
Derrick Jones Jr is a highlight waiting to happen, and has been for the Miami Heat during every minute he has been on the floor this season. On the fast break he is terrifying, finishing in traffic off of cuts or lob passes. He makes dastardly steals, gets his hands on a lot of balls in the passing lanes, and isn't afraid to chase someone down for a highlight reel block either. These things make you wonder, "How did this kid go undrafted?" but even more, where was this type of play when he did get his opportunity in Phoenix?

The Maternal Ancestry of Basketball Legend Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant was born on August 23, 1978 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Joseph Washington Bryant and Pamela Cox. He also has two older sisters—Sharia Bryant, born March 19, 1976, and Shaya Bryant, born July 30, 1977. Kobe first entered into the national spotlight while he was attending Lower Merion High School in Ardmore, PA. During this time, he became the first freshman in several decades to start for the school's varsity team, and was named Pennsylvania's Player of the Year in his junior year. When he was just 17, Kobe made the decision to forgo college and enter into the NBA draft. Kobe Bryant's career began on June 26, 1996, when he was selected 13th overall by the Charlotte Hornets. Now, for those of you who followed basketball in the 1990s and 2000s, you know that Kobe would never play for the Hornets and he would be traded to the Los Angeles Lakers just days later. He would go on to play for the Lakers for 20 years and will go down as one of the greatest basketball players of all time.
