Fox Sports reported on Monday that former porn star and mistress of Tiger Woods, Joslyn James, is planning to be at The Masters when Woods makes his return to competitive golf.
James, whose real name is Veronica Siwik-Daniels, also told Fox News in an interview that people in Woods' inner circle knew that she was having sex with him, and it was "just false" that no one other that Woods knew about their relationship.
James also announced on her Web site that she will be pole dancing at the Pink Pony strip club in Atlanta, Ga., about 150 miles from where Woods will ...
The first official round of the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club is still more than a week away. That means we're still about six days from an abject furor that will descend upon the globe, the likes of which we may not be able to comprehend until it happens.
When Tiger Woods' return hits high gear at his April 5th unscripted date with members of the media (ones who haven't been hand-picked), many eyes that will never see an iron or wood put to golf ball will be watching in slack-jawed fascination.
Fans of the game must be awaiting Woods' first ...
Welcome to the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia. Once home to some of the most notorious sports facilities in the US, perhaps the world, it is now home to a handsome collection of stadiums, each with it's own flavor. And as a bonus, we are going to try and make it through this guide without mentioning that obligatory Philadelphia style sandwich.
First pictured is Citizens Banks Park (I promise you will hear more about this place from us in the upcoming weeks). It's a great facility and unlike the rest of the sports teams in the town, has actually witnessed success ...
The other day, I was reading the chapter on intelligence in my psychology textbook.
The section was about what can and can't be considered different types of intelligences. One sentence that really caught my eye read "the abilities that we can manage without, as in...athletics, are better considered talents than intelligences."
Now, I guess you could say that athletics is probably a talent and not an intelligence, but that's not the part of the sentence I want to dwell on now.
What I would like to dwell on now is the question: Can we really manage without athletics, or sports in general?
Two hundred ...
Here is the final installment of my work, "Violence and Aggression in Sports."
Thanks to all who have been following along, I hope you have enjoyed this in-depth look at a disturbing trend.
Aggression or sportsmanship can be learned and reinforced in many different ways. Multiple reasons, rather than a single one, influence such behaviors.
Young athletes need positive, appropriate, and constructive role models to teach and reinforce sportsmanship and moral reasoning (Nucci & Young-Shim, 2005).
The coach is perhaps the most significant person influencing the amount of aggressive or sportsmanlike behaviors displayed in the competitive sport context (Conan, 1980; Cratty, 1983; King, 1990; ...

In their first game against a SIFL team and hampered by seven turnovers and the absence of two key players, the Louisiana Swashbucklers dropped a hard fought contest 88-32 to the Columbus Lions. The Swashbucklers, who were coming off a 88-6 trashing of the North Texas Crunch, could not repeat their offensive power of the previous week. They were held scoreless in the second half. The Lions defense held Swashbuckler quarterback Alvin Bartie to only 10 of 26 passing for 253 yards. Bartie was also sacked four ...
Baseball, Hot Dogs, Apple Pie, July 4th.
Does it get more American?
Find me an American over the age of three that has never eaten a hot dog, and I will be greatly impressed.
Call competitive eating what you want, but nobody can dare to insult a Nathan's hot dog.
On July 4th, no matter how disgusting and disturbing it might be, America's focus is set on Coney Island, New York where the annual hot dog eating contest occurs yearly.
Year-in and year-out 20 men will go against their common sense (if they have any), and attempt to eat more hot dogs in the span of 10 minutes ...
The following is part of a weekly series in which writer Todd Civin presents the lighter side of the Boston Breakers of Women's Professional Soccer (WPS).
The league is built on the down-to-earth nature and approachability of its athletes. "Getting Silly with the Breakers" is a fun-filled way to create a comfortable bond between the fans and the professional athletes who are the Boston Breakers. A special thanks to Erica Hunt, the Communications Director for the team, as well as the players themselves for making this approach possible.
It is difficult for ...
In the last year we've seen Twitter explode into a phenomenon where athletes have expressed their big news or even their nonsensical brain farts in 140 characters or less. Regardless of the type of comment, one cannot deny just how big Twitter has become and its relevance in the sports world today.
The big, famous athletes receive a great amount of attention for their tweets, but really it's the hot female athletes who can keep people coming back to their pages. That got us thinking about 20 of the hottest female athletes who run their own Twitter page. ...
One reason why athletes are often admired by the masses is that they often push themselves to the limits to do amazing things—whether it's scoring 38 points with the flu in Game Five of the NBA Finals, winning the U.S. Open with an ACL-stricken left knee, or rowing across the Atlantic Ocean solo style.
Is it truly mind over matter? Sanity over insanity? Or just the fact that once an individual gets past the rationalization factor of "playing it safe," one is capable of doing what's deemed impossible?
Katie Spotz, a sensational 22-year-old adventurer and athlete from Mentor, OH, knows a thing ...
