In Monday night’s baseball game between the Oakland A’s and Tampa Bay Rays, Outfielder Josh Reddick did something we haven’t seen in maybe… forever. In the bottom of the 10th inning, and the game tied, Reddick extended his arms and began rubbing the beards of teammates’ Stephen Vogt and Eric Sogard. Reddick, having grown quite a hefty beard of his own last season, knows firsthand that long facial hair follicles can translate into victories on the field. Sure enough, later in the inning Derek Norris hit a walk-off single to

I’ll make this intro brief: Madness has been Madness; giants have fallen (Kansas, Villanova, Wichita State, Duke, Cincinnati, Ohio State, and more), a few groups of men are looking fantastic in glass slippers (Dayton, Tennessee, Stanford), and a

Get ready for a wild two-plus weeks, folks, as this year is setting up to be one of the craziest in recent memory. Three of last year’s Final Four are in the same freaking region.
