...immediate lesson Blake learned is that he must improve his fitness level. The increased range of ground strokes, heavier topspin and more dynamic second serves of the pros clearly took their toll on Blake's body. Twice during ATP competition--during the U.S. Open and Pilot Pen--Blake had to be treated for cramps...

She's the first woman to be admitted into what is generally considered Y-chromosome ground zero: Monday Night Football. Not bad for a reporter who once had a footballer sign her notebook, assuming she was a fan. And who was told she got her first TV gig because she had the experience and was "cosmetically correct."
