I doubt that anyone, save Nick Faldo of CBS, could have foreseen the conclusion of the Masters two days ago. Tiger was one off the lead and in the final pairing on Sunday, and most people just expected him to intimidate the rest of the field into folding like a lawn chair. Though he had never come back ...
Is it the sports world that revolves around the seasons, or vice versa? It is a tough call to make, because every March, much of the country seems to break out of its wintry slumber and prepares for spring, arguably the most exciting of sports seasons. Rogers Hornsby used to say that he'd spend his ...
As much as it may fly in the face of sports lexicon, I have a problem with the use of the Cinderella analogy. I can appreciate the idea that a previously unheard-of team can be transformed into the belle of the ball, but I think the word is misused.
I hadn't really given much thought to the personal significance of Saturday's game against Cornell, but when Mark McAndrew '08 asked me after the game if I was a senior and I said yes, I couldn't help but feel sentimental. It was the last game I would ever cover for The Herald.
There comes a point when you realize that an athlete has established himself as a great player. Sometimes it's when you don't wish but rather expect him or her to come through with the big play in the final minutes. Other times, it's when an athlete impacts the game with his or her mere presence or ...
A lot of things have got me thinking about the upcoming baseball season: The start of spring training, all of the columns by Tom Trudeau '09 comparing the New York Yankees to the Boston Red Sox and that huge void in February when the football season has ended and there's little in the way of sports ...
The men's basketball team dropped both games during its New York road trip this past weekend, falling 61-59 at Cornell on Friday and 77-68 to Columbia on Saturday. The two defeats leave Brown next-to-last in the Ivy League at 2-6 (7-16 overall).
I recall thinking last week that it was a perfectly legitimate idea to devote extra coverage to University of Pennsylvania men's basketball coach Glen Miller's return to Brown. Considering the success he had on College Hill and the strange circumstances surrounding his departure for Penn, it made for ...
Former men's basketball Head Coach Glen Miller shares the same name as a famous 1930s bandleader, so it's apt that some music analogies be made when breaking down his return to the Pizzitola Center tonight. Whenever a band adds a new front man, there's potential for a great new sound, as well as potential ...
On consecutive nights this weekend the men's basketball team rallied back from early deficits only to see its comeback attempts fall short. The Bears dropped a 56-52 decision at Dartmouth on Friday and lost 92-88 at Harvard on Saturday, falling to 1-3 in Ivy League play (6-13 overall).
