It has been a long seven years working towards this -- being the last one cut from the eight in 2008, again in 2009, working through injuries in 2010 and 2011, and then the ups and downs of selection this year.

Bruce Banner, too, was the best in his field. Like LeBron James, he appeared to have no equal. Both men were overly confident in their abilities, and this confidence is what ultimately led to fateful decisions by each, decisions which would have lasting ramifications.
It seems that soccer matches continue to be, even in political backdrops as different as Poland and Egypt, a sanctified outlet of group violence.
The Hornets don't count, because the team that ended up with Anthony Davis was destined to be the clear winner of the draft. With Jared Sullinger, Fab Melo and Kris Joseph, Danny Ainge drafted three accomplished, tough college players who fit roles for Doc Rivers' squad.
I love stories in other sports, such as golf and tennis, where an athlete fesses up, even at the risk of losing the event and prize money. Is it because baseball is a team sport that the offender is reluctant to come forward, because he doesn't want to let down the team?
I was five when I played my first soccer game and it changed my life forever. Physical activity was always part of my childhood, as was reading. Fit minds are just as important as fit bodies, which is why I'm endorsing the Wild Soccer Bunch.
The only competition going on right now is between the Giants pitchers. For the first time in the history of the franchise, they have recorded four-consecutive shutout games.
For the first time in NBA draft history, the same college, champion Kentucky, produced the top two picks: Anthony Davis by New Orleans and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist by Charlotte.
This new playoff plan still has more than a few important kinks to be worked out. From here, it feels more like an engagement than an actual wedding. It will probably come to full fruition, but there is a good chance at least someone is going to regret it.
Swimmer Natalie Coughlin, 29, was the most decorated female athlete at both the 2004 Athens and the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Besides swimming, Coughlin's passions include food, gardening, and the five chickens she keeps in her backyard in Lafayette, California.
It's Election Night 2012, and PresidentObama has just lost a tight race. The key to Romney's victory? Massachusetts, a staunchly liberal state that turned red after Obama foolishly offended Red Sox fans.
It's an exciting time in baseball. As we're looking at a new playing field in the MLB, let's look at the players who will emerge as its new stars.
Co-founded last year by social media entrepreneur Eric Goldstein (who sold clipmarks.com to Forbes in 2007 and amplify.com to Clipboard in 2011), SportsYapper aims to be the primary social network for sports fans to share quips and opinions with one another around their favorite teams.
There is something special about an Olympian. While many athletes are treated like gods, the breed of competitors who materialize every four years occupies the upper reaches of the pantheon. There seems to be something a little more pure, a little more genuine about them.
I'm as happy as every other fan that college football is finally getting a national championship, but after evaluating what we've missed out on as a result of a lack of it, the question remains: What took you guys so long?
The final of the Euro (the football tournament) takes place this Sunday in the midst of the ongoing crisis of the euro (the currency). Unfortunately and perhaps inevitably, sport has been invaded by political and financial metaphors these days.
On Monday evening, UFC world middleweight champion Anderson Silva starkly switched from mellow to malevolent in the blink of an eye, taking everybody, not least of all opponent Chael Sonnen, by surprise.
Election season and baseball season intersected on Monday night as President Obama poked fun at Boston fans during a Massachusetts fundraiser after the Red Sox traded fan-favorite Kevin Youkilis to his cherished Chicago White Sox.
IndyCar announced recently that the race in China will not be replaced and the schedule shall remain at 15 races for this year. I have to say I concur with their decision on this one.
