Real Madrid host Alavés in a rare midweek game. Los Blancos have little to play for but that’s not the case for Alavés, who are fighting to avoid relegation.

Monday night's 4-2 loss against the Dallas Stars showed that the Minnesota Wild aren't just squaring off against one of the NHL's top teams. They're also facing off against their own history. We undoubtedly saw what the new-look Wild were capable of in Game 1. They ran the Stars off their own i...
Game Story 21-2. Twenty-One to Two. That is the run that was set to this entire game. Unfortunately for the Minnesota Timberwolves, it did not come in their favor. While so much can change after the first 12 minutes of game-time, there is no worse way to start a game off. Worst of all, it […]
