The 2012 German Grand Prix was one of the best complete weekends that I have seen in a long time, from a fantastic qualifying, in which three different tyre setups were needed in three different stages, to the race, which contained close action right to the finish. Fernando Alonso was able to take his third victory of the 2012 season and his second consecutive win at the Hokenheimring. The weekend...

It’s a debate that will never truly have an answer. Comparing different stars from different decades is a common practice that probably is unfair to all involved, yet we do it anyway to entertain ourselves. There have been plenty of great American soccer players over the years, but here are the 10 I think have been the best to ever put on a Yanks jersey. As always, feel free to comment below...

Brazil’s 2-0 victory over Great Britain in their Olympic tuneup show that this Brazilian team has the maturity and focus that it takes to bring a medal home in the 2012 games. Brazil did what they were supposed to do against the British—they dominated.

Rafael Nadal’s withdrawal from the Olympic event is a sad time for the sport and for the player personally, but does it expose the darker side of the golden era of tennis? It was no secret that Nadal was struggling with tendinitis in his left knee—he pulled out of an exhibition match against Novak Djokovic at Real Madrid’s Bernabeu Stadium at the start of this month—and he has...

Brazil’s amazing depth gives them the best chance of any country at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London to take home the gold medal in soccer. With quality players at every position on the pitch, the Brazilians should be able to dethrone their rivals Argentina as kings of Olympic soccer.

There they were, slugging away point after point—crosscourt volleys, down the line passing shots. Andre Agassi and John McEnroe, at least for one night and one set (although both looked like they could go longer), giving New York fans the thrills of years and titles past. It wasn’t the new PowerShares Series, which will have some of the biggest names in senior tennis, Agassi and McEnroe...
