Minnesota Tops Chicago White Sox, 9–3

The Min­nesota Twins reg­is­tered an impor­tant 9–3 win over the Chicago White Sox on Tues­day, thanks to Denard Span who pulled in four runs. Cen­ter fielder Alex Rios mis­cal­cu­lated the bases-loaded, eighth-inning shot by Span, which slipped off his glove for a dou­ble. Con­se­quently, Span scored three runs to rally the Twins to a cru­cial win. With this vic­tory, first-place Min­nesota is now seven games ahead of the White Sox in the Amer­i­can League Cen­tral, with 18 games left to play. Del­mon Young recorded a homer, while Joe Mauer com­pleted 3-for-5 to score... 

Defending Champion Tiger Out from FedEx Tour

The PGA Tour will stage its grand finale with­out Tiger Woods, the world’s No.1 player. Tiger Woods failed to qual­ify for the FedEx Cup cham­pi­onship, and as a result, won’t be defend­ing the title that he won last year. Sur­pris­ingly, he is not the only one to not qualify. Rickie Fowler also didn’t make it though he pre­sumed he would qual­ify as he left Cog Hill. Fowler fin­ished 32nd, lurk­ing behind Bill Hass in the 31st spot. Bo Van Pelt, at No. 30, was the last lucky man to make in. The No.1 seed Matt Kuchar is the top dog and favorite at East Lake, which hap­pens... 

Kansas City Upsets San Diego

Appar­ently, after three years the Kansas City Chiefs boasts a team that has speed, tal­ent and excel­lent coor­di­na­tion among defense and offense, which makes it pos­si­ble for them to win games in dif­fi­cult conditions. The Kansas City Chiefs defied the San Diego Charg­ers and posted a 21–14 vic­tory on Mon­day. Scor­ing on a 94-yard punt return that set a new club record, rookie Dex­ter McClus­ter helped the Chiefs to pre­vent a late San Diego drive and seal the victory. Jamaal Charles pulled in a 56-yard touch­down run for the Chiefs (1–0), who entered the game with...

The US won their first world bas­ket­ball cham­pi­onship since 1994 on Sun­day, as they beat Turkey 81–64 in the FIBA Finals.

NCAA Football Auburn Defeats Mississippi State

Auburn recorded more than 200 rush­ing yards and Cameron New­ton threw for two touch­downs, ral­ly­ing the Tigers to a 17–14 win over Mis­sis­sippi State, Thursday. Mis­sis­sippi State (1–1) went for 63 yards to a touch­down in the sec­ond half on its first pos­ses­sion to get within three points.

Brees, Saints Rally for 14–9 Win over Vikings

The Saints and Drew Brees man­aged to extend the post-Super Bowl excite­ment of New Orleans for one more week and denied Brett Favre a win in the Louisiana Super­dome once again. Brees fin­ished 27 of 36 passes for 237 yards and 1 touch­down, help­ing the Saints sur­vive a tough sea­son opener for a 14–9 win over the Min­nesota Vikings on Thursday. It was not the most impres­sive way to begin a title defense, given that it was a rematch of the spec­tac­u­lar 2009 NFC title game that was held in Jan­u­ary. The Saints had won that game in over­time, lead­ing them to their first...
