Alterdestiny (Free subscription) | 11/30/2009

Sports Illustrated gave Derek Jeter its sportsmen of the year award? Why? Well, we all know why--his Jetertude, clutchiosity, and general leaderness. Admittedly, Jeter had a very nice year. His defense improved from its normal abysmal self and he had a great offensive year. But this is totally absurd and reeks of Yankee love within the SI office. The obvious candidate for sportsman of the year is Jimmie...

Rodriguez gains home run after video review

genesiaiqv1u | 11/07/2009

PHILADELPHIA – Alex Rodriguez has one more reason to love the camera. His disputed drive into the right-field corner, originally ruled a double, was changed into a two-run homer when video technology was used to reverse a call for the first time in World Series history.
