YANKEES Hold Off ORIOLES, Score Triple PlayPosted Saturday, April 13, at 10:32 PM C.C. Sabathia (2-1) got his second win of the season yesterday, as the New York Yankees (5-5) held serve at home against the Baltimore Orioles (6-5), 5-2. The Bronx Bombers' winning streak now rests at four, but the big news occurred in the top of the 8th inning when the Yanks managed to turn a crucial triple play...
Every April 15, Major League Baseball players, members and fans wear No. 42 in honor of the late Jackie Robinson. The tradition started in 2004 and continues today with great fanfare as followers of America's Past Time commemorate the life and career of the gentleman who tore down the color barrier in the MLB...
"Mad Hatter" coming to Fayetteville? Arkansas has reportedly offered LSU coach Les Miles the head coaching position for the Razorbacks football program, according to ESPN. Miles has not confirmed the offer, but the deal is said to be for 5 years and $27.5 million...
Jon Gruden, where are you? Arkansas endured its worst football season since former coach Houston Nutt's squad went 4-7 in 2005. The Hogs 20-13 loss to No. 7 LSU punctuated the end of a season filled with misery for pigskin fans in the Natural State...
No one turned the lights off or left this party early, because the American League Pennant was still up for grabs going into game No. 162. Pesky and persistent, the Baltimore Orioles (93-69) made the perennial powerhouse of Major League Baseball, the New York Yankees (95-67), work vigorously for the American League East title...
Louisiana-Monroe (1-0) pulled off yet another memorable Miracle on Markham only this time Arkansas came up on the losing end. The over 53,000 Razorback fans in attendance at War Memorial Stadium could do nothing other than watch in disbelief, as No. 8 Arkansas (1-1) would succumb to a team from the Sun Belt Conference. The Warhawks unbelievably pulled off the upset 34-31 over the Hogs in overtime...
Penalties, as they did a season ago, nearly got the better of the Dallas Cowboys (1-0). Despite 13 penalties for 86 yards, Dallas defeated the defending Super Bowl Champion New York Giants (0-1) 24-17 at MetLife Stadium...replacement officials and all...
No. 8 Arkansas (1-0) looks to improve on the lackluster defensive effort put forth in last Saturday's victory over Jacksonville State. The Hogs gave up 322 offensive yards (227 passing; 95 rushing) and allowed the Gamecocks to score 24 points. "We did a lot of things that we can hang our hats on, but, at the same time we know that we can get better each week," said Arkansas linebacker Alonzo Highsmith of the Hogs defense. ...
T-minus 15 days and counting until the Arkansas Razorbacks take the football field for the 2012 season. But will it be all splash or flash for a team and program that could be decimated by the dismissal of its head coach Bobby Petrino? 40-year football veteran John L. Smith won the job vacated by Petrino, but did Arkansas Athletic Director Jeff Long make the best possible choice to lead the Hogs?...
DALLAS -- Mediocre has become a term all too fitting for America's Team. The Dallas Cowboys concluded yet another disappointing season with an overall record of 8-8 in 2011, as the Boys finished .500 against the NFC (6-6) and 2-4 against the NFC East. With the start of training camp, expectations are certainly high for 2012...
LAS VEGAS - Nothing less than Olympic Gold will do for the 2012 USA Basketball Team. While injuries to Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and Dwight Howard have raised serious concerns with fans, NBA icons Kobe Bryant and LeBron James will lead a blistering attack into the games in London...
OMAHA -- Something had to give. The Arkansas Razorbacks (2-2) came into tonight's game with a 5-0 record in the 2012 postseason when scoring two or more runs, and the South Carolina Gamecocks (4-1) came into the College World Series looking to advance to their third-consecutive Series Championship Game. Could the back-to-back defending National Champions hold off the feisty Hogs and advance to a College World Series match up with the Arizona Wildcats?...
BELLEFONTE, Pa -- Former Penn State defensive coach Jerry Sandusky has been convicted of sexual assault against 10 young boys he had contact with over the course of 15 years.

It is the second NBA Title for the franchise. The Heat's first title came in 2006, with legendary center Shaquille O'Neal, and it is the first championship for the 2012 Regular and Finals MVP LeBron James...
