Great fan artwork featuring a map of the United States, built entirely with logos from professional & collegiate sports teams. The artist did a great job of utilizing the right logos in the right location to fairly accurately outline the country.
A note from the author, which should add a bit of sting some of you out there whose team is missing:
This is a map of the USA made of sports logos. I couldn’t put every team, but I purposely didn’t put yours. Source: http://michael-danger.tumblr.com/

Athletes must have a certain discipline to remain in optimal condition to get the most out of their bodies. Some workouts athletes incorporate into their lives can be beneficial and inspire some good habits that will produce results. However, before following any workout of a top athlete there are a few things to keep in mind.
Keep It Realistic
Workouts followed by pro athletes and bodybuilders may seem glamorous and easy to emulate in glossy magazines or infomercials, but remember that such magazine articles or TV ads are meant to sell workout equipment …

Pete Rose just spent his 70th birthday still blacklisted from baseball. As yet another milestone for one of baseball’s most storied, infamous player-coaches comes to pass, the debate about Rose’s past and future with Major League Baseball will once again fill the sports talk airways and interwebs. From gambling and steroids to sex and violence, throughout the last 20 years since Rose’s problems surfaced we have witnessed many athletes fall victim to their own self-made scandals, and yet just as many are able to walk away scot-free.
Had he played his …

Soccer is by far the most popular sport overseas, garnering millions in revenue for its different leagues and their teams, players, owners, and sponsors. In England, the infamous football gangs–die-hard fans with the deepest level of obsession possible–will kill each other over their teams’ outcomes. They travel in hoards to visiting stadiums, wreaking havoc the entire way and vowing to cause bodily harm to the rival club. This kind of passion–and in no way am I advocating violence, here–is absent in America in terms of soccer.
Football guys and gals tailgate the …

As those with a professional golf career will tell you, one of the biggest problems that newbies to the game of the golf have to correct is scooping the ball.

Just take a few steps to ensure you stop scooping the ball …

This is a guest post for summer kids’ camps that help children establish friendships, learn to be part of a team and to generally “get out and play”. If you have kids like I do, you know that it’s difficult to convince them to go outside during the summer – ok, maybe only because we live in Arizona and it gets over 110 degrees during the day. Regardless, the easy road is letting your kids play video games – as long as they stay out of your hair (if you’re …

Crawling out of bed to go to work is hard enough. Crawling out of bed even earlier, and on a weekend, seems like blasphemy, even if I smell bacon. There better be eggs and a hot woman in an apron – only an apron.
Believe it or not, however, there is one Sunday every year when I get up with the sun. How could this anomaly happen? Three words: The British Open.
I live in Arizona, which means the Open Championship comes on TV at 6 a.m. I could DVR it, but …

As a sport that has been developing since the first century B.C., and is now played by both men and women worldwide, golf has become quite a popular pastime. One of the most important factors in being a good golfer is knowing which clubs to use. Based on product popularity, the top five golf club manufacturers are TaylorMade, Cobra, Callaway, Titleist, and Nike.
TaylorMade Golf was started in 1979 by Gary Adams, who founded the company with the intention of creating iron clubs that …

It was only three years ago that the Stanford men’s volleyball team finished a gut-wrenching 3-25 season (2-20 in conference play), but you wouldn’t know it from looking at Monday’s AVCA coaches poll. The Cardinal earned the No. 1 spot for the first time since February 6, 2001, when they held the top rank for only a week before finishing the season at No. 5.

Now with a 12-4 record and a half-game lead over fellow Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) team Pepperdine, Stanford is trying to erase the memories of …

We’ve all played sports video games before.  From the original sports games like RBI Baseball, where you could bunt for a homerun, to Tecmo Bowl where you could literally kill a quarter with a single running play.  The question still remains…Will they ever be able to create a sports video game that gets everything right?  Let’s face it, no matter how advanced the computer’s AI gets, it’s still a computer with a finite amount of movements and reactions to your input on the controller.  Don’t get me wrong, video games …

Every year or so, a sports movie comes out that is supposed to make you feel good, tell a captivating tale, break your heart, or keep you on the edge of your seat.  Unfortunately, I always walk away disappointed which is why from this day forward – with the exception of The Sandlot – I will never watch another sports movie. 
I hesitate to even put The Sandlot in the “sports movie” category because it is really more of a story about growing up, getting into trouble, facing your adversity, and …

I thought I’d seen at all, until this morning while reading a story on FoxSports…
Viagra is being used as a performance enhancing drug in sports.  Apparently, the little blue pill has been showing up in locker rooms for years, but it’s never really been thought of as “performance enhancing” for sports.  Former BALCO owner, Victor Conte, stated that “All my athletes took it”.  The biggest name involved in this story, which should really be no surprise at this point, is Roger Clemens. 
Two stated benefits of using Viagra (besides the obvious one …
