A’ja Wilson has been hailed the runaway favorite for MVP and by most accounts, she’ll likely be the unanimous pick. Her individual numbers are better than they’ve ever been, and the national discourse this year has operated under the assumption that no one else really stands a chance.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

The unsung hero of this performance for me was undoubtedly Aji Alese, who just makes everything look so simple. Some of you may know that I’m as big a fan of Luke O’Nien as anyone else, but even I’d admit that Luke has to work his socks off and try really hard to be as good as he is, and to play as well as he does.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue organization in Massachusetts, has recently introduced a dog named Blazer who is looking for his forever home. According to the nonprofit rescue organization, Blazer has had quite a journey. “Blazer was one of 7 dogs ‘saved’ by another rescue down in Texas and when he was just a young puppy.

Almost every Sunderland fan has heard about Len Shackleton, the ‘Clown Prince of Football’, but amidst the tricks and the tales of Roker Park’s ultimate showman it is sometimes assumed he was all about style over substance. Make no mistake though, Shackleton was not just some sort of maverick show pony – he was a bona fide great of the game and against Manchester City in 1951 he proved once again how much of an impact he could have.

On This Day (25th August 1951): Superb Shack-trick for Sunderland’s Len!

Jack Clarke looks to have played his last game for Sunderland. The value of the deal suggested by journalists is less than what we as supporters would value Clarke, with £12 or £13 million potentially returning to the club. A hefty sell-on clause has been mentioned too, but that’s only a concern to us if Clarke hits the ground running in Suffolk.
