USMNT Watch: Cameron and Howard Star on Boxing Day in Premier League

There may not have been many Americans playing across the world this weekend, but the ones who were turned in key performances for their respective sides.  During the busy Boxing Day slate of matches in the Premier League, Geoff Cameron and Tim Howard starred in victories by Stoke City and Everton.  There was also plenty of news off the pitch this week concerning players in the United States... 

Channel 4 Should Follow the BBC’s Winning Formula After Earning F1 TV Deal

The chain has been broken and an era has come to a premature, avoidable end. The conclusion of the BBC’s television coverage of Formula One appeared increasingly likely when presenter Suzi Perry signed off the 2015 season by saying she would “hopefully” see us next year. And it became inevitable when, per the Times‘ Kevin Eason, a bunch of the Beeb’s executives marched... 

Ranking the 5 Best Goalkickers in World Rugby Right Now

No man bears more individual pressure in a rugby team than the goalkicker. The spotlight falls upon him more intensely as he lines up his shot at goal than at any other point of the game. During the 2015 Rugby World Cup we saw matches decided by pressure kicks in the dying embers of matches that were the difference between progression and a passport home.  We have seen Lions tours hinge on the... 

Are Toro Rosso the Team to Watch for the 2016 Formula 1 Season?

Toro Rosso memorably scored their first Formula One victory at the Italian Grand Prix in September 2008 and then finished the season 10 points ahead of their parent team, Red Bull (the first and only time that has happened). At the end of the year, Sebastian Vettel—the victorious driver on that rainy autumn day—was promoted to Red Bull and promptly repeated his feat, taking the Bulls’... 

Grading the Formula 1 Teams on Their 2015 Performances

Formula One’s second season under the V6 turbo-hybrid regulations followed a similar pattern to the first. Mercedes once again produced a package light years ahead of anyone else and won the constructors’ championship with ease. Again, they failed to win just three races—and as in 2014, only one team was able to take advantage. Last year it was Red Bull, this time around it was Ferrari.... 

Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen and More

After securing his third world championship, Lewis Hamilton provided his Mercedes team with a headache in the closing races of the 2015 Formula One season. As his form mysteriously evaporated and team-mate Nico Rosberg embarked upon a run of three consecutive victories, Hamilton required careful management from his Mercedes colleagues as he frequently challenged the team’s strategy calls in Mexico,... 

Nehe Milner-Skudder: World Rugby’s Emerging Star of 2015

There are many reasons to argue 2015 as possibly the most successful year in New Zealand’s rugby history, but it will also be remembered as the year Nehe Milner-Skudder took on the best of the best and won. From Super Rugby nobody to World Cup winner and breakthrough sensation in a little under eight months, there isn’t a player in the sport who has enjoyed a 2015 quite as meteoric as Milner-Skudder. If... 

Early Predictions for the 2016 Formula 1 Season

It already feels like an eternity since we last saw the Formula One teams and drivers in action, and we still have a long wait ahead of us before we’ll see them again. The 2016 F1 season kicks off with first practice for the Australian Grand Prix on March 18. Even pre-season testing won’t be along until the end of February. Those two, four-day tests at the Circuit de Catalunya will... 

Ranking Europe’s Top 15 Club Teams After Weekend of December 18-20

Lots of movement beneath an unchanged top three this week. Ulster and Wasps both recorded significant wins in the context of their pools while Harlequins entered the fray for a dominant campaign in the Challenge Cup backed up by a steady rise in the Premiership table. Despite the ominous way Toulon recovered to beat Leinster after a first-half best forgotten, it would seem, for now, that the force... 

Abby Wambach’s Criticism Towards Jurgen Klinsmann Is Justified

Recently retired U.S. women’s national team striker Abby Wambach is not completely wrong about her criticism of Jurgen Klinsmann, the head coach of the men’s national team. Ahead of her final match with the USWNT, Wambach said that if she was calling the shots, she’d fire Klinsmann. She elaborated on The Bill Simmons Podcast (via Fox Soccer’s Alexi Lalas): Wambach is entitled...
