...loss to Hofstra concluded the weekend. It bears repeating that this sort of opening performance is not necessarily cause for panic. First of all, Harvard’s caliber of schedule is no joke. Hofstra was coming off a near-upset of No. 25 Indiana and beat Princeton earlier in the year. As for Long Beach State, the 49ers had dominated No. 21 Missouri, 4-1, before heading to Cambridge. Just as importantly, last year’s team also took some time to get going, and look where they ended up—the NCAA Tournament. To take...
...Neal began by telling me he's won every contest on Shaq Vs., a bold gambit, since the two episodes that had already aired showed him losing. When I brought this up, he said, "I guarantee I beat Michael Phelps at swimming. And when I guarantee, I deliver." When I asked him what kind of handicap Phelps gave him, O'Neal said, "I win one race." Then: "Out of many races...
Like the athletes in every episode of Shaq Vs., I found that the man had gotten into my head. Panicking, I asked him how he was going to beat me. "I probably can't," he said. This clearly was a trick, perhaps a way of distracting me while he appeared out of my boom box as a genie and dunked a basketball on my head. Seriously, I feel better every time I mention Kazaam.

...defeated top-seeded and No. 36 Michaela Kissel of Marshall, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1. “They were difficult matches, but I went out to play my game and came away with a win,” Cao said. On her side of the draw, Tachibana beat Erin Clark of Richmond, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, Elizabeta Zaylsiva of Winthrop, 6-2, 6-4, and Kateryna Yergina of Virginia Commonwealth University, 7-5, 3-4, ret. Though she did not face a ranked challenger, Tachibana took down opponents who had previously defeated players ranked 73rd...
...course, this being the fashion industry, none of these ideas are exactly new. In 1999, 222-year-old Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pa., licensed its name to an Italian firm, which emblazons it on college-athlete-inspired T-shirts and sweatshirts, complete with fake school crests. National Geographic beat Field & Stream to the punch, launching menswear in 2005. And neither of them is even the most unlikely fashion patron. Kenny Chesney's a designer now, selling his Blue Chair Bay line in three locations in the South...
