The International Football Association Board (IFAB) held a special meeting yesterday and passed several decisions that will result in new rules for the game, with one of the decisions relating to goal line technology to review goals.

July 6, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Driving a second car does not keep Brad Keselowski in second place. Despite destroying his primary car in a practice round last week in Kentucky and yet he managed to drive the backup to victory, something that you very rarely see. Not only did he win but he led the last 55 laps but he did it with a limited gas supply in earning his third victory of the season. Kyle Busch looked very strong Read More>>

July 5, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
With two weeks to go to the next major -- the British Open -- you can call this weekend's Greenbrier Classic the last big tune-up for all the big names. And there is no name bigger in golf right now than Tiger Woods, who won last week in D.C. to earn his third win of the season -- and if possible, even more conjecture over whether "he's back" or "he's not." Now No. 2 on the alltime tour win Read More>>

London Underground Renamed for Famous Olympiads Past and Present
July 3, 2012 By Paul Kapustka

However if you have been there before you might find one thing different than in the past; the city has renamed 361 stations after celebrated Olympic Read More>>
